Part I - The Union of the Soul & Spirit by E.E. Brooks

John 2:19-21 - “19 Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up. 20 Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt though rear it up in three days? 21 But he spake of the Temple of His Body.”

1 Corinthians 6:19 - “What? know ye not that YOUR Body is the Temple of the Holy Ghost?”

The Temple of Your Body

Jesus taught that our physical bodies are the temples that God inhabits. God gave Moses very specific instructions of exactly how to construct the first tabernacle or temple in the wilderness. The words tabernacle and temple are referring to the same thing. The “priesthood and the tabernacle” is referred to as a “figure” or a “parable”, therefore it has different levels of meaning.

Hebrews 9:8-9, 11 - “8 . . .the way into the holiest of all was not yet made manifest, while as the first Tabernacle was yet standing. 9 Which was a Figure [Parable] for the time then present. . . 11 But Christ being come an High Priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect Tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building.”

Figure = Strong’s number H3850 is Parabole (Par-ab-ol-ay) meaning: a similitude (“parable”), i.e., symbol.

KJV usages: comparison, FIGURE, PARABLE, proverb

Jesus was an High Priest and His physical body was the Temple, or Tabernacle. It’s therefore logical and appropriate to look for the High Priest and Temple / Tabernacle within each one of us. Yes it’s true that there is an High Priest and a Tabernacle within each one of us. The tabernacle that Moses built was but a type and a shadow of the True Tabernacle which Jesus taught us about.

Hebrews 8:1-5 - “1 Now of the things which we have spoken this is the sum: We have such an High Priest, who is set on the right hand of the throne of Majesty in the heavens; 2 A minister of the sanctuary, and of the True Tabernacle, which the Lord has pitched, and not man. 3 For every high priest is ordained to offer gifts and sacrifices: wherefore it is of necessity that this Man have somewhat also to offer. 4 For if He were on earth, He should not be a priest, seeing that there are priests that offer gifts according to the law: 5 Who serve unto the example and shadow of the heavenly things, as Moses was admonished of God when he was about to make the Tabernacle: for, See, saith He, that thou make all things according to the pattern shewed to thee in the mount.”

God knew exactly what He was doing when He gave Moses specific instructions concerning the construction of the tabernacle in the wilderness. No part of it was without a symbolic meaning of the true tabernacle of our bodies. In fact, the Hebrew words for many of the parts of Moses tabernacle were the same as body parts. For example: the sides of the Outer Court were called SHOULDERS. The sides of the Holy Place were called RIBS, and the sides of the Most Holy Place were called THIGHS, or LOINS! After study, we find that the Most Holy Place is symbolic of the Lions (Womb) or the Generative Parts. These words were lost in the King James translation of the Hebrew and were simply called sides. Before we go further into these types and shadows, we need to look at the basic parallels between Moses’ tabernacle and the True Tabernacle of our bodies.

Exodus 27:13-14, 15 - “13 And the breadth of the court on the east side [H3802: Shoulder] eastward shall be fifty cubits. 14 The hangings of one side [H3802: Shoulder] of the gate. . .15 And on the other side shall. . .”

Exodus 26:26-27 - “26 And thou shalt make bars of shittim wood; five for the boards of the one side [H6763: Rib] of the Tabernacle (Holy Place), 27 And five bars for the boards of the other side [H6763: Rib] of the Tabernacle (Holy Place), and five bars for the boards of the side of the Tabernacle (Most Holy Place), for the two sides [H3411: Thighs or Loins] westward.”

Side = Shoulder (Outer Court) Exodus 27:13-14, 15

H3802 = Katheph (kaw-thafe’), from an unused root meaning: TO CLOTHE; THE SHOULDER (proper, i.e., upper end of the arm; as being the spot where the garments hang); figuratively, side piece.

Side = Rib Exodus 26:26-27

H6763 = Tsela (tsay-law), from H6760 meaning: A RIB (as curved), literally (of the body) or figuratively (of a door, i.e., leaf); hence, a side, literally (of a person), or figuratively.

Side = Thigh, Loins or Generative Part Exodus 26:27 (Most Holy Place = Loins or Womb)

H3411 = Yerekah (yer-ay-kaw), FEMININE of H3409 (yarek / yaw-rake), from an unused root meaning: TO BE SOFT; THE THIGH (from its fleshly softness); by euphem: the Generative Parts; figuratively, a shank, flank, side.

KJV usages: body, LIONS, shaft, side, THIGH

Moses’ tabernacle consisted of three main parts of which much has been written. There was the Outer Court, the Holy Place, and the Most Holy Place. These are comparable to the three parts of man. We are Spirit, Soul, and Body. Truth is much like a multifaceted diamond; it can be looked at from many different ways and still be true. If we only look at one meaning of truth, then we will miss the sparkle of the other hidden meanings, and deeper understandings. Keep your spiritual eyes open as you study the diagram and realize that there are many ways to look at the tabernacle. One way does not negate the other, but it amplifies and expands your understanding.

Hebrews 9:9 - The Tabernacle “FIGURE” = the Greek word for “PARABLE” in the feminine form!

The Tabernacle is a Parable of a Feminine Body. . .

The MOST HOLY PLACE IS THE WOMB!

The (WOMB) loins of the Mind = The Mind of Christ (Subconscious)

Jesus often spoke in parables, which meant there were many parallel meanings to what He was saying. When Jesus spoke a parable, it allowed the babes to understand one thing, and the mature to understand an even deeper meaning. That’s why He used parables. Jesus was able to minister to everyone, without offending anyone. The Pharisees did not understand what Jesus was really saying, but the people did. The disciples understood further hidden, and deeper meanings than most of the people did. Today, we can find new levels of understanding because Jesus was speaking to generations that would not be born for 2000 years! The word of God contains hidden manna that is being revealed in these last days. The same applies to the parable of the high priest and the tabernacle, which until now, was never even understood as a parable of UNION. Moses and the children of Israel understood it on a natural level, but there is hidden within, a truth that’s just now unfolding some 6000 years later. There’s a higher level of understanding that only those with spiritual eyes and ears will comprehend. That does not negate any of the other parallel meanings, but rather expands on them.

Whatever truths you have derived from your tabernacle studies were only understood because God opened your spiritual eyes to see them. If we have a flexible wineskin to receive new truth, then our eyes will continue opening to other facets of a beautiful truth, which sparkle like a diamond in the light.

One of the things that perplexed me when I studied the tabernacle of Moses for over 20 years, was the fact that women were not allowed into the tabernacle at any time. Only men were permitted to enter and worship and offer sacrifices, even in the Outer Court. When I would ask my teachers (who were all men), why this was, they either could not answer, or they said it was because the man was somehow superior to the women when it came to spiritual matters. This attitude still prevails in most of Christianity today, because it’s the men who run every major denomination. It was not so long ago that you never saw a woman in the pulpit. Men would quote the scripture that women should keep quiet in the church. The women were permitted to teach children in Sunday school (mainly because men did not want to), but never given any position of authority.

Today, women are taking their rightful place, and are speaking out with as much (or more) truth than the men. The Bible says that in the last days your sons and Daughters will prophesy, something that was forbidden in most every denomination for thousands of years. As I began to study the Hebrew words associated with the tabernacle, I noticed God had a very specific reason why women were not allowed into Moses’ tabernacle, and it certainly was not because they were somehow spiritually inferior to men, as I had been taught for years. The Lord put me in a trance back in 1995 and began to teach me about the tabernacle and put the pieces of the puzzle together concerning these things. Most Christians often do not use the word trance because they think it has some bad connotation. Christians often like to say they were “in the Spirit”, and I could not use that term, but I was plainly and simply in a trance. I have good company to back up my claim, both Peter and Paul were put into a trance by the Lord.

Acts 11:4-5 - “4 But Peter rehearsed the matter from the beginning, and expounding unto them, saying, 5 I was in the city of Joppa praying: and in a Trance I saw a vision, A certain vessel descend, as it had been a great sheet, let down from heaven by four corners; and it came even to me. . .”

Acts 22:17 - “. . .when I was come again unto Jerusalem, even while I prayed in the temple, I (Paul) was in a Trance.”

The Lord also put me into a trance, and I was shown many things about the tabernacle. I had studied for over 20 years and could not come up with the answer until the Lord showed me. I was not smart enough to figure these things on my own, although I tried and tried, but the truth remained hidden. I do know that these things cannot be found, or read, anywhere else that I know of. They were not learned in a book but were given by Divine revelation. If I said that I was caught up in the Spirit, that makes it sound like I am some great spiritual person, but I am not, I have plenty of faults, just like you do. I have no pretense of self-righteousness. I am just a normal person who has been studying for many years, and the real reason I used the word Trance, is because the same thing could easily happen to you. I wrote about the experience in detail in a 100-page book called “The Circumcision of the Heart, and Entrance Into the Most Holy Place”. [There is also “Regeneration” by E.E. Brooks, but I have been unable to find either so far in my search.]

The Lord put the pieces of the puzzle together when He spoke with me during that experience. It was the first supernatural experience I had in my 30+ years of walking with the Lord, and it changed my life. The Lord showed me then, that the Priesthood and the Tabernacle is really a parable of a Union, much like the union between a husband and a wife. The priests were men (or masculine), and the tabernacle was feminine in nature. When the High Priest made entrance into the Most Holy Place, it was parallel to the love making process between a man and a woman. That’s the only reason why women were not allowed to enter the tabernacle. God created the sanctity of a marriage between a man and a woman, and he never sanctioned a relationship between two women or two men. God’s way is a husband and a wife, resulting in the birth if a new life. It was God who created the love making process and is symbolic of a greater Spiritual Union. I pray that God will open your spiritual eyes and ears to hear what I am trying to convey. These are mature words intended for mature ears.

The Bible is filled with terms like the marriage supper of the lamb, the bride of Christ, the circumcision of the heart, the loins of your mind, the birthing of a Manchild and so on. These are all part of what God is showing us in the parable of the priesthood and the tabernacle. There is a masculine and feminine part within each believer, regardless if you are a man or a woman. There is going to be a Spiritual Union within the Sons of God. But first, let’s establish that in God’s eyes, even women are considered Sons of God. How can a woman be called a son of God? Because they can have the circumcision of the heart. Women can be circumcised in their Spirit, and have an INNER MAN, or a HIDDEN man of the heart!

1 Peter 3:4 - “But let it be the Hidden Man of the Heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet Spirit, which is in the sight of god of great price.”

Ephesians 3:16 - “That he would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might by His Spirit in the INNER MAN.”

Romans 2:29 - “But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and Circumcision is that of the Heart, in the Spirit.”

That means we can safely say that the heart/spirit is masculine, because you circumcise a male organ. Each of us has a masculine Spirit or Heart, even women. Likewise, the Bible says we have “loins” (or womb) of our minds. The mind is the soul, and happens to be FEMININE in nature, even in men. Your mind receives seeds or thoughts, where they “conceive”. There is going to be a union of the spirit and soul, which is a parallel to the High Priest making an entrance into the Holy of Holies. These both are symbolized by the physical act of love making between a man and a woman, resulting in a pregnancy and birthing of a child. This Spiritual Union will result in the birthing of the Manchild, spoken of in Revelation 12.

Moses’ tabernacle had a Most Holy Place, where only the High Priest could enter (or penetrate) once a year. remember that the Hebrew word for “sides” of the Most Holy Place was “thighs”, “loins” or the “womb”, which is the generative part of the female.

The Hebrew root word for the “Most Holy Place”, is also the same word used to describe a “temple prostitute” or “whore”. The high priest of Baal would have sex with the temple prostitutes (male & female), in their most holy place. We know that there was no such activity in the Tabernacle of Moses. You can imagine how strange it seemed to me to find out that the Hebrew words for the Holy of Holies and the prostitute and whore all come from the same root word! Strong’s number H6944 is the “Most Holy Place” and H6945 is a “Prostitute”, both coming from the same root (H6942) word! This all backs up the notion that the tabernacle and the priesthood is a parable of a Union!

The reality of it is that the Most Holy Place in the Moses tabernacle was symbolic of a “womb”. It was a sacred or hallowed (hollow) place. The most holy place on a woman’s body is her womb, for it is there where new life is created. The point of all this is to show that the tabernacle of Moses (specifically the Holy of Holies), was a place of Union. It is feminine in nature and is symbolically a womb. It’s no coincidence that only the High Priest could make an entrance into (penetrate) the Most Holy Place. The High could not enter the Most Holy Place without the blood of a sacrifice. The fact that he is called the “high” priest is symbolic of an “upright” (high-erect) male organ. It’s the blood which causes a male organ to stand erect.

[**Website authors note: Brooks never mentions the menstruation cycle of a woman in connection to the blood, so I did some digging of my own. The word “issue” is used to describe the menstruation flow. In Leviticus 15:29, the word issue is H2101 and means: FLUX, which is used to describe ANY type of bodily discharge (such as puss from a putrid sore, or a spot leprosy). . .however, the root word H2100 is used to specifically describe not only a woman’s menstruation flow but also the act of “having a SEXUAL flux - i.e., to ejaculate, or have an orgasm.]

Continuing with Brooks. . .

Hebrews 9:6-7 - “6 Now when these things were thus ordained, the priest went always into the first tabernacle (Holy Place), accomplishing the service of God. 7 But into the second (Most Holy Place) went the HIGH PRIST alone once every year, NOT WITHOUT BLOOD, which he offered for himself, and for the errors of the people.”

Are these things just coincidence, or is there some hidden truth here? You must decide for yourself. The High Oriest (masculine) represents the erect male organ, and the Most Holy Place (feminine) represents the womb. Now, there is also a tabernacle and priest within each of us. The High Priest had to be circumcised, and he also had to be perfect in his genitalia! In fact, they had to be physically inspected before they were permitted to enter the tabernacle!

Deuteronomy 23:1 - “He that is wounded in the stones (testicles), or hath his privy member (male organ) cut off, shall NOT enter into the congregation of the LORD.”

Isn’t that curious to you? Why was God so concerned that the Priest be physically able to produce seed? Well, it was because the whole process was symbolic of a Union! But unlike the temple of Baal, this was a Spiritual Union not a physical one. It’s important to keep all this in proper perspective.

Remember that Jesus said that our bodies are the Temple or the Tabernacle? Once again, it’s no coincidence that we find a Most Holy Place within each of us. We have the “loins” or reproductive part of our soul/minds. For it’s the womb of soul/mind which is the feminine part within each of us.

1 Peter 1:13 - “Wherefore gird up the Loins of your Mind. . .”

Likewise, we also have a masculine spirit/heart. The heart represents a male organ, because it must be circumcised.

Romans 2:29 - “But he is a Jew which is one Inwardly; and Circumcision is that of the Heart, in the Spirit, and not in the letter, whose praise is not of men, but of God.”

The Heart is to the Spirit, what the male organ is to the man. Jesus dwells in out hearts and it is His Blood which brings righteousness or Uprightness.

Ephesians 3:17 - “That Christ may dwell in your Hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love. . .”

Galatians 4:6 - “And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your Hearts, crying, ABBA, Father!”

The circumcision of the Heart removes the unclean flesh nature and self-righteousness. It’s the precious Blood of Jesus that fills our Hearts so they become Upright or Erect. It’s the Upright Heart that God is looking for. Only an upright male organ can procreate. The High Priest within each of us, is our Upright Heart!

Psalm 32:11 - “Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, ye righteous: and shout for joy, all ye that are Upright in Heart.”

Psalm 7:10 - “My defense is of God, which saveth the Upright in Heart.”

Psalm 36:10 - “O continue thy lovingkindness unto them that know thee; and thy righteousness to the Upright in Heart.”

Psalm 64:10 - “The righteous shall be glad in the LORD, and shall trust in Him; and all the Upright in Heart shall glory.”

Psalm 94:15 - “But judgment shall return unto righteousness: and all the Upright in Heart shall follow it.”

Psalm 97:11 - “Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the Upright in Heart.”

Psalm 111:1 - “Praise Ye the LORD. I will praise the LORD with my Whole Heart, in the Assembly of the Upright, and in the congregation.”

Psalm 125:4 - “Do good, O LORD, unto those that be good, and to them that are Upright in their Hearts.”

Psalm 37:18 - “The LORD knoweth the days of the Upright: and their inheritance shall be for ever.”

1 Chronicles 29:17 - “I know also, my God, that thou triest the Heart, and hast pleasure in Uprightness. As for me, in the Uprightness of mine Heart. . .”

I can write about these things only because God has opened my eyes to them. Surely, I could never come up with something like this. Who could possibly find something which God had hidden in His word? Nobody! These truths could easily be offensive to many people, while others will truly be blessed by them. God is revealing the spiritual facts of Life and teaching us about the tabernacle in these last days. We are on the threshold of the Feast of Tabernacles, where the birthing of the Manchild, or the manifestation of the Sons of God occurs. God is revealing these things now because these are truly the last days. I must write these things which he has revealed to me, even if they seem offensive. I have no congregation or church to lose. I have nothing to sell. If you are offended, and I will truly understand, then throw this away, or put it on a shelf. Simply write meSeed and ask to be removed from my mailing list, really, I will not be hurt in any way.

God took me into His presence in 1995 and told me to write these things down, and I continue to do so. Except for a handful of friends, I had nobody to send them to, but I wrote them down anyway, and witnessed how God would spread this word all over the world in a few short years. I have never promoted myself, not sought out any platform, but God provided the means to get this word to 10 countries, and thousands of people all of the USA. The only time I will g and speak to any group is when God makes me. I do not have a platform personality and have no desire to get up in front of any group. I wrestle with God every time He makes me go somewhere and speak. I realize that this word is not for everyone, but it’s for a remnant few who will experience the Union of the Spirit and Soul. God has always provided the finances to freely send these teachings out to anyone who desires them. I refuse to promote these things, for if God is not in it, then let it collapse and fall to the ground. I will never ask anyone for money, and I am sickened by the begging for offerings in the church realm. I am not a volunteer in this calling, but I have been drafted. Even so, I will do the best I can to convey these truths. I digress.

Luke 8:5 - “A sower went out to sow his Seed.”

Luke 8:11 - “Now the parable is this: The Seed is the Word of God.”

The Union of the Spirit and Soul will cause the birthing of a new body, a glorified physical body. The Soul/Mind must be the virgin mind of Christ, not the carnal mind. The Spirit must be the circumcised Upright Heart, with no fleshly foreskin to pollute the pure seed. The Word of God is the Seed! The Greek word for the good “seed” is SPERMA, or SPERM. Another coincidence? You decide!

Matthew 13:24 - “Another parable put He forth unto them, saying The Kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed Good Seed [G4690] in his field.”

Seed = Sperm [G4690] (sper’-mah), from [G4687] and [G4685] meaning: SOMETHING SOWN, i.e., seed (including the male sperm); by implication, offspring; specifically a remnant (figuratively, as if kept over from planting); issue, seed.

The exact same word “sperma” is used in the Book of Hebrews concerning Sarah and Abraham. The story of Abraham and Sarah is also a parable of the Union of the Spirit and Soul.

Hebrews 11:11 - “Through faith also Sara herself received strength to conceive Seed [G4690] and was delivered of a child when she was past the age, because she judged Him faithful who had promised.”

Sarah’s womb was barren, and she could not conceive the promised son. Sarah believed that Abraham was able to RAISE UP a son unto her. She received his sperm, yet she remained barren. Sarah then told Abraham to take Hagar and impregnate with his sperm to RAISE UP a son. If we look at Abraham as a symbol of the Spirit and Sarah as the Soul, we begin to see the parable unfold.

Galatians 4:22-24 - “22 For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, one by a Bondmaid (Hagar), the other by a Freewoman (Sarah). 23 But he who was after the Bondwoman was born after the FLESH; but he of the Freewoman was by PROMISE. 24 Which things are an ALLEGORY: for these are two covenants; the one from the mount Sinai, which gendereth to BONDAGE, which is Agar (Hagar). 25 For this Agar (Hagar) is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to Jerusalem which now is, and in bondage with her children. 26 But Jerusalem which is above is FREE , which is the mother of us all. 27 For it is written, Rejoice, thou Barren that bearest not; break forth and cry, thou that travailest not: for the desolate have many more children than she which hath an husband. 28 Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise. 29 But as then he that was born after the FLESH persecuteth him that was born after the SPIRIT, even so it is now. 30 Nevertheless what saith the scripture? CAST OUT the bondwoman and her son: for the son of the Bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the Freewoman. 31 So then, We are NOT children of the Bondwoman, but children of the Free.”

We see two women, Hagar and Sarah. Hagar produced the son of the flesh [*Website authors note: because Abraham was yet uncircumcised when Hagar conceived Ishamel], and Sarah produced the son of the Spirit [because Isaac was conceived AFTER the LORD commanded Abraham to circumcise himself and his entire household, see Genesis 17]. We also find a duality of the soul, a Carnal Mind and a Spiritual Mind. If the Spirit unites with the Carnal Mind, the result is the son of the Flesh and Bondage, like Ishamel was from Hagar. This is what we see in the church realm today with all their fleshly, carnal denominations fighting against each other. They want to keep their Carnal Minds and mix the pure word of God with Fleshly ideas. This produces Bondage and nothing else.

The Spirit must unite with the Spiritual Mind, like Abraham and Sarah, producing the promised Manchild. This must be the pure womb of the Mind of Christ, for it is that virgin part within us. We will not remain barren forever, but we will conceive and bring forth the Manchild. We must cast out the bondwoman (the carnal mind) and her son. We are currently led by the soul/mind. We need to be led by the Spirit. When the Union of the Spirit and Soul occurs, the two become one [flesh]. It’s then that we can be led by the Spirit and become the Manifested Sons of God.

Romans 8:5-23 - Romans 8:5-23 – “5 For they that are after the flesh do Mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.  6 For to be Carnally Minded is death; but to be Spiritually Minded is life and peace.  7 Because the Carnal Mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. . .11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your Mortal Bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.  12 Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.  13 For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.  14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.  15 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.  16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:  17 And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.  18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.  19 For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the Manifestation of the Sons of God. . .22 For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.  23 And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our Body.”

The word Tabernacle means a tent, booth or temporary dwelling place.  God is preparing to reveal the fullness of the Feast of Tabernacles very soon!  This is a time when we leave the corporate group and dwell in a tent, or booth.  There we commune with God, one-to-one, like the High Priest did in the Most Holy Place.  Remember that the Most Holy Place was symbolic of a womb.  It was there that the Ark of the Covenant was kept.  If you can see that the Most Holy Place is a type of a womb, then you can see the analogy of the Ark being like an egg or ovum, which becomes fertilized by the sperm.  Let’s look at the things found in the Ark.

Hebrews 9:3-4 – “3 And after the second veil, the tabernacle which is called the Holiest of All (Most Holy Place); 4 Which had the golden censer, and the ark of the covenant overlaid round about with gold, wherein was the golden pot that had Manna, and Aaron's Rod that budded, and the Tables of the Covenant.”

Contained within the Ark:

  1. Manna

  2. Aaron’s Rod

  3. Two Tablets of the Covenant

First, we will look at the Manna.  Manna is a symbol of Seed or Sperm, which is needed to produce life in a female egg.

Exodus 16:31 – “And the house of Israel called the name of thereof Manna: and it was Like Coriander Seed, white [as SNOW]; and the taste of it was like wafers made with HONEY.

[**Website Authors note: “The fear of the Lord is clean, enduring for ever: the judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether.  More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb”, Psalm 34:10. And again, “O taste and see that the Lord is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him”, Psalm 19:10. It has occurred to me that covering the Ark (or Mercy Seat) were two Cherubim, which, if the Ark is the womb. . .the Cherubim must symbolize the ovaries. “And after the second veil, the tabernacle which is called the Holiest of all; Which had the golden censer, and the ark of the covenant overlaid round about with gold, wherein was the golden pot that had manna, and Aaron's rod that budded, and the tables of the covenant; And over it the cherubims of glory shadowing the mercyseat; of which we cannot now speak particularly.”, Hebrews 9:3-5.

CHERUBIM = H3742, which has no known meaning.

However, it’s uses in the KJV are:

  1. Cherub, cherubim (plural)

  2. An angelic being

  3. As guardians of Eden

  4. As flanking God’s Throne

  5. As an image form HOVERING OVER the Ark of the Covenant

  6. As the Chariot of God

 

Now, I got to thinking. . .what do we see “hovering over” the face of the waters in Genesis 1:2?

“And the SPIRIT of God MOVED (literally “hovered”) UPON the face of the waters.”

The first mention of the Cherubim which covered the Ark is in Exodus 25:18, “And thou shalt make two cherubims of gold, of beaten work shalt thou make them, in the two ends of the mercy seat.”

The phrase “two cherubim” has the Hebrew numeric values of: 672(standard), 114(ordinal), and 24(reduced) for a combined value of 810.

810 is the standard Greek value of BOTH “Comforter” (παράκλητος) (John 14:26) and “Friend” (φίλος ) (John 3:29, “Friend of the Bridegroom”) in the Greek. . .which are in reference to the Holy Spirit!  

In the Book of Luke we are told about the angel of the Lord visiting Mary and telling her that she would conceive a son: “Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man? And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the Power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.”]

Next, we will look at Aaron’s Rod, which budded and brought forth life.  The “rod” is an obvious type of the male organ, which is also needed to bring forth life.  Lastly, we will look at the Tablets of the Covenant, which were (interstingly enough), also referred to as the two Tablets of Stone.

Exodus 31:18 – “And He gave unto Moses, when He had made an end of COMMUNING with him upon mount Siani, Two Tables of Testimony, Tables of Stone, written with the finger of God.”

[Again, Brooks makes no mention of this “end of communing”, which I can only see as being symbolic of the consummation of a marriage between a man and a woman.  God had CONSUMATED His communion with Moses, i.e., PLANTED HIS SEED within Moses.]

Remember that the Hebrew word for “stones” referred to “testicles”, and the two Stone Tablets of the Testi-mony are a type of the testes needed to bring life to the egg.

Deuteronomy 23:1 – “He that is wounded in the Stones (testes), or hath his Privy Member (male organ) cut off, shall NOT enter into the congregation of the LORD.”

God has hidden these truths in His word, and now He is revealing them to you.  He would only tell those who are truly ready and who need to understand what is about to occur within them!  We needed to know about the birds-and-bees before we were ready for physical marriage.  The same applies to the Spiritual Marriage Supper of the Lamb, the Union of the Soul and the Spirit.  We must understand these details which have been concealed until now, and because God is revealing these things to you, it implies these things will happen to you!

Revelation 2:17 – “He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the Hidden Manna, and will give him a WHITE STONE, and in the Stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it.”

Sarah had a barren womb which kept her from conceiving Isaac, the promised Manchild.  Eventually God restored her barren womb, and she did conceive as promised.  If God has opened your eyes to see that in the Tabernacle of Moses, the Most Holy Place is symbolic of the womb, then you will be able to see that God will restore it in the last days.  We have heard a lot of teaching on the Tabernacle of Moses, with it’s Outer Court, Holy Place, and Most Holy Place, yet there is another tabernacle which David pitched called the Tabernacle of David.  The Tabernacle of David did NOT have an Outer Court, nor did it have a Holy Place.  It consisted solely of the Most Holy Place and contained the Ark of the Testament.  When the Ark returned from captivity at the hands of the Philistines, David took the Ark and pitched a tent for it.

1 Chronicles 16:1 – “So they brought the Ark of God, and set it in the midst of the Tent that David had pitched for it: and they offered burnt sacrifices and peace offerings before God.”

This tent was the same as the Most Holy Place because it contained the Ark.  The tabernacle of David is a type of the womb and David acted as a High Priest and a King.  Keep in mind that Sarah’s womb was barren, and God restored it in her old age to produce and conceive the promised Son as we read these next verses, and then study the diagram further below.

Amos 15:16 – “In That Day will I Raise Up the Tabernacle of David that is fallen, and close up the breaches thereof; and I will Raise Up his Ruins, and I will Build as in the days of old.”

[Ah yes, now we’re getting somewhere!]

God said in the last days he would restore the Tabernacle of David, which is the Most Holy Place.  Since the Most Holy Place is symbolic of the womb, God is saying He will restore the womb of YOUR MIND.  Just as God restored Sarah’s womb [Mind = she Believed God] in her old age, God will also restore the Womb, or Loins of our Minds, in the last days!

God does not intend to raise up a literal tent like David did, nor bring a literal child out from a literal womb.  Yet, there is a much higher meaning which has remained hidden until these last days.

1 Chronicles 17:5 – “For I have not dwelt in an house since the day that I brought up Israel unto this day; but have gone from TENT TO TENT, and from ONE TABERNACLE TO ANOTHER.”

God does not intend to dwell in a canvass tent, but rather intends to dwell in you!  Remember that since YOU are the Tabernacle of God, then the Most Holy Place must be somewhere within you.  [How remarkable is that?]  God intends to dwell in a Tabernacle not made with hands.  You are Kings and Priests (like David), and You are the Tabernacle of the Most High God who He intends to restore and dwell in!

Hebrews 9:11 – “But Christ being come an High Priest of good things to come, by a Greater and More Perfect Tabernacle, NOT made with hands, that is to say, not of this building. . .”

Acts 7:48 - “Howbeit the Most High dwelleth NOT in Temples made with hands; as saith the prophet. . .”

Therefore, the restoration if the Tabernacle of David is the restoring of the barren womb of your mind.  You are the Tabernacle not made with hands.  And it is this KEY of David which unlocks the Tabernacle of David!

Revelation 3:7 - “And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write; These things saith He that is Holy, He that is True, he that hath The Key of David, He that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth.”

The key of David unlocks the Tabernacle of David.  This key will open the Most Holy Place, because that is what David’s Tabernacle consisted of.  This “opening” is the same as the opening of a womb which has been barren.  There was NO entrance into the Most Holy Place, just as there is NO entrance into a barren womb that the LORD has shut tight.

Hebrews 9:8 – “The Holy Ghost this signifying, that the way (Entrance) into the Holiest of All (Most Holy Place) was not yet made manifest, while as the first tabernacle was yet standing.”

The opening of Sarah’s womb is a type of the Restoration of the Tabernacle of David. Jesus entered this Most Holy Place and we will too. The veil of the temple was torn open when Jesus was crucified, this was the veil which led into the Most Holy Place. There will be an opening of our minds specifically to the mind of Christ!  The womb of the mind (the subconscious) is where we find the Tree of Life

There will be an opening of the door of our minds as to the awakening of the Mind of Christ!  The opening of a door is the same as the removal of a veil.  When a key is given, we can use it to unlock that which has been previously kept shut.  We are now being given the key of David, the key of which will unlock the veiled portion of our minds that has been concealed from us since the day in which Adam partook of the fruit of the Tree in the Garden of Eden.

It's no coincidence that there was a door to the Outer Court and the Holy Place, but there was no door or access into the Most Holy Place.  When we look at the Hebrew word for “sides” of the western veil (of the Most Holy Place), we find it is the word “Thigh”.  The way into the womb is between the thighs, via the western veil.  There was no access to the Most Holy Place from the Holy Place.  When we look at the Holy Place as the conscious mind, and the Most holy Place as the subconscious mind, we deduce that entrance into the Most Holy Place must be made from the western veil, through the thighs.  This implies that we must directly access the subconscious, and not try to get into the Most Holy Place through the conscious mind.  God speaks directly with your subconscious in dreams and visions etc.

The restoration of David’s tabernacle is the restoration of your barren womb of the mind.  This is the awakening of the mind of Christ, and it will soon take place.  Your barren womb will be restored.  You will conceive the promised Manchild.  You will have the Union of the Spirit and Soul.

Galatians 4:27 – For it is written, Rejoice, thou Barren that bearest not: break forth and cry, thou that travailest not: for the desolate hath many more children than she with  hath an husband.”

Isaiah 54:1-8 – “1 Sing, O barren, thou that didst not bear; break forth into singing, and cry aloud, thou that didst not travail with child: for more are the children of the desolate than the children of the married wife, saith the Lord.  2 Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations: spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes; 3 For thou shalt break forth on the right hand and on the left; and thy seed shall inherit the Gentiles, and make the desolate cities to be inhabited.  4 Fear not; for thou shalt not be ashamed: neither be thou confounded; for thou shalt not be put to shame: for thou shalt forget the shame of thy youth, and shalt not remember the reproach of thy widowhood any more.  5 For thy Maker is thine husband; the Lord of hosts is his name; and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel; The God of the whole earth shall he be called.  6 For the Lord hath called thee as a woman forsaken and grieved in spirit, and a wife of youth, when thou wast refused, saith thy God.  7 For a small moment have I forsaken thee; but with great mercies will I gather thee.  8 In a little wrath I hid my face from thee for a moment; but with everlasting kindness will I have mercy on thee, saith the Lord thy Redeemer.”

Sarah was barren, Rebekah was barren, Rachel was barren, Elisabeth was barren and Mary was a virgin, but barren. It was God who made all these women barren, and it was God alone who opened their wombs at the right time. He kept them barren for a purpose, His purpose. He has kept the loins of your mind barren as well.

These were all kept barren as a type and shadow of what God would do in the last days with the Sons of God.  They will conceive and the birth promised corporate Manchild, who will rule and reign with Him.  Do you have the spiritual eyes and ears required to comprehend the importance of these words?  I think you do or you would have not kept reading this far.  Why would God reveal these things if you were not a candidate for this experience?

  • What percentage of people in the world today even seek spiritual things? A very small percentage.

  • Of the small percentage of those who seek spiritual things, how many have the desire to go beyond their denominational barriers? Fewer still.

  • Of those who go beyond their denominational barriers, how many have come into the truth of Sonship and Tabernacles? Just a small handful.

  • Of those who are seeking Sonship and the Feast of Tabernacles, how many are mature enough to hear these words? Just a remnant.

Someone must attend this Great Feast which the lord is preparing.  Remember the parable, when they all made excuses of why they could not come to the great feast?  God said to go out into the highways and the byways, and compel them to come in.  Someone must attend this Feast of tabernacles, why not you.  If you think that I was some super-spiritual person whom God put me into that trance, think again.  If you got the impression that this happened to me because I was perfect, think again.  I have no delusions of self-righteousness; I knew I fell short in many areas, just like you do.  The only reason I was invited is because others refused to come, not because I deserved it in any way.  The people who attend this Feast are going to be the poor, the lame, the maimed, the halt and the blind.   Not those pretentious leaders in fancy pulpits, with their fine stained-glass windows and feigned holiness.

Luke 14:16-24 – “16 Then said he unto him, A certain man made a great supper, and bade many: 17 And sent his servant at supper time to say to them that were bidden, Come; for all things are now ready.  18 And they ALL with one consent began to make excuse. The first said unto him, I have bought a piece of ground, and I must needs go and see it: I pray thee have me excused.  19 And another said, I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to prove them: I pray thee have me excused.  20 And another said, I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come.  21 So that servant came, and shewed his lord these things. Then the master of the house being angry said to his servant, Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in hither the poor, and the maimed, and the halt, and the blind.  22 And the servant said, Lord, it is done as thou hast commanded, and yet there is room.  23 And the lord said unto the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.  24 For I say unto you, That none of those men which were bidden shall taste of my supper.”

It is going to be a motley crew, like people right off the streets.  They will be the ones who will attend this Great Feast.  Those religious church people who were invited will not attend.  They are too busy with their programs and merchandise.  The ones who attend this Feast will not make loud prayers with religious voices.  It will be those who are meek and humble, with no false feelings of self-righteousness.  They will know they do not deserve to even be there.  They will not be wearing pious robes but will have holes in their shoes.  They will have an attitude of thankfulness and wonder why God would even give them a second glance.  Most of all, they will not make any excuse like, “I am lacking in so man areas”, “I can’t make it because I am too old”, “I can’t make it because of this-or-that short coming”.  The only reason we can attend, is because of the Blood of our Savior Jesus Christ.  It’s His righteousness that will cover our dirty street garments.  It’s those who are forgiven of much, who will be able to grant mercy to others.  We all have received undeserved forgiveness from our father, and in turn we must forgive others.  God loved us all when we were unlovable.  Those who attend this Marriage Feast will sit in the very Throne of God.  They must only do and say the things the father does, even like Jesus. 

As I write these things, tears are streaming down my face realizing that there are those of you reading this who will actually make it all the way to the fullness of the Feast of Tabernacles, to the Union of the Spirit and Soul, to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.  Your womb will not always remain barren.  You will conceive the word and bring forth the promised Manchild.  The Day of the Lord is at hand, time is short.  You are being compelled to come in to attend this Great Feast.  Humbly thank God for the undeserved invitation and begin to walk toward Him.  Don’t let any excuse keep you from your destiny.  Sarah conceived in her old age, and you can too, for it is God who opens the barren womb.  We were put here for a purpose, this purpose.  He is reproducing Himself in you.  You truly are a Son of God, and you will inherit His nature.  Like-father, like-Son.  These things are not some cunningly devised fable, these are hidden truths (hidden manna), from the Most High God.  He said it will happen, and that settles it!  I will never forget the culmination of the trance when God took me up into His presence.  Instantly, I was there with the Father, standing next to Jesus, and they both smiled, first at each other, then they smiled at me.  They both seemed so happy to see me and I didn’t understand why.  The Father looked into my eyes and He did not condemn me, even though I was far from perfect.  He walked toward me and embraced me with the most loving hug I have ever known.  I thought He would be mad at me for sure, but He was not.  He also wanted me to tell you, that He is not mad at you either, even though you are not perfect.  That experience changed my life.  I look forward to my next face-to-face meeting with him soon.

Summary

In conclusion, we see that there will be a union of the circumcised Spirit and the Mind of Christ.  The Virgin Mind of Christ will submit to the Spirit, receive the sperma / word of the Father, and produce a glorified body, or promised Manchild.  Your heart must be circumcised, and your barren mind must be awakened.  The soul must submit to the spirit.  It is the only covering you can trust.  Wives submitting to their husbands is but a type and shadow of the soul submitting to the spirit.  There will be those who will want to say to stay under the covering of their church or group, but do not accept this false covering.  They will try to warn you of the dangers and pitfalls of trying to make it on your own.  The only covering you can trust is the covering of the Spirit.

Isaiah 30:1 – “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.”

Those who leave the so-called safety of the covering of their denomination, group or church will be led by the Spirit.  They will become the Sons of God.  It’s easy to stay in the comfort of the church realm but going out to make your own way is the mature thing to do.  You would never stay with your natural mother your entire life.  You must leave to take a spouse and create a life of your own.  You must be about the Father’s business, like Jesus did when He was twelve years old when He began to be led by His heavenly Father.  Your heavenly Father will not let you down.  He will be faithful to lead you and guide you by His Spirit.  He is giving us the key to the Mind of Christ.  He will Awaken this Mind within in each of His Sons.  You will have the ability to do everything Jesus did, perform every miracle He performed.  We must choose the good and reject the evil.  We must dwell on His thoughts and reject the carnal mind.  We must root out all the tares or weeds that have been planted within our minds because these are the last days.  You must “Let” this mind be in you which is in Christ Jesus. You can do it!  God is not wasting His time, it is possible!

Each waking day is but one day closer to when you will meet Him, and He will embrace you with pure love.  He will manifest His Sons, when the fulness of time has come.  Then the true nature of the Most High God will be revealed, a nature of Love, Mercy and Forgiveness.  This will also be our nature too.  We must begin by changing our minds to reflect His Nature, then we will have all power that Jesus has.  We will have His Name (Nature) written in our Forehead, that’s in our minds.

Revelation 14:1 – “And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the mount Sion, and with Him an hundred forty and four thousand, having His Father’s Name (Nature) written in their Foreheads.”

Revelation 22:4 – “And they shall see His Face; and His Name (Nature) shall be in their Foreheads.”

We CAN understand all mysteries, but if we do not have LOVE, we are nothing!

1 Corinthians 13:1-13 – “1 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.  2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.  3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.  4 Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, 5 Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; 6 Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; 7 Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.  8 Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.  9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.  10 But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.  11 When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.  12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then Face to Face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.  13 And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.”

Revelation 19:7-9 – “1 Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the Marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.  8 And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.  9 And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the Marriage Supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.”

You are being called, even now.  Will you come?  John 21:12, Jesus saith unto them, Come and Dine. . .”

God Bless You Forever!
