Stepping out of the Comfort Zone 8

This week we will conclude our look at the Ten Sefirot as it pertains to us through Jesus the Messiah. The upper 5 Sefirot represents the spiritual side of life. The steps of the upper 5 Sefirot is the place where our very Soul exists in direct communication with Adonai.

Through our mind we see the physical aspects of this world. This is the place where our 5 senses dwell. This is the place where we inhabit the lower 5 Sefirot of the physical world. In our efforts to achieve a greater spirituality we must show a willingness to remove the mind to these aspects of the truth, this is the meaning of true faith. We must show a true desire where our Soul achieves this state of spirituality that we may be in direct connection with the Kingdom of Heaven.


(5) The Geburah is Power; this is the place where we are able to receive the power of healing. The best descriptions I can use to explain this position is when Peter walked on the water towards Jesus. When he stepped out of the boat and headed towards Jesus, he was not thinking about the consequences of his actions in fact based on the information provided in the NT he wasn’t thinking at all. It wasn’t until his mind caught up with his actions did he take a swim.

(4) The Chesed is Love; this is the place where we can obtain the Spiritual love, a love that abounds no limitations, one in which we see the Blessing and Grace of even our worst of enemies.

(3) The Binah is Understanding; this is, what our Lord was referring to, when he used the term “let he who hath an ear”…it doesn’t mean hearing,
it means understanding what was heard. This is the level of spiritual understanding achieved by the prophets to understand the visions that they were given by Adonai (The Lord God Most High) Blessed be He.

(2) The Chokhman is Wisdom; this is the wisdom achieved only through the spirit, which allows one such as Job to praise the Lord with all his heart even though he had suffered so much, the knowing that each loss was a lesson and each pain was a test of faith. This is the Wisdom that King Solomon prayed of the Lord to receive that he may become a good and Just King.

(1) The Kether is the seat of Adonai (The Lord God Most High) this is the Lord our God the Father in Heaven who directs all, through the use of the lower levels of the Ten Sefirot Through these Ten Sefirot we find the true Ancient Jewish Mystical meanings to the Tree of Life that Jesus the Messiah spoke of.

Please keep in mind that in order for us to achieve these upper levels of the Ten Sefirot we must have and show a willingness to remove our minds from the physical world. The test is if you are willing to shut off the things of this Physical world and open up your Soul to the Kingdom of Heaven.

Several Christian authors such as Rick Warren in his book “The Purpose Driven Life, and John Ed Mathison in his book “Treasures of the Transformed Life”, it is unknown to us if Christian authors like Rick Warren and John Ed Mathison understand that the concepts they are sharing in their material is just what we have shared in our last 3 articles.

In having a discussion with a Letourneau University Professor this past week, he made the comment that most of our material should be addressed and discussed biblical Academics and scholars only and not the ordinary Christian. It seems that his concern is that most everyday Christians would not understand this material, while most in the biblical Academic field would.

To me this is a sad statement when those of the academic world know of these things yet refuse to teach them to the up and coming Pastors of this world. It is our goal to bring the truth about these teachings to the everyday Christian, Just as The Lord Jesus did throughout his ministry to the Disciples and the predominantly Jewish following. This does require something of the reader to take a large leap of Faith and Step out of Your Comfort Zone.

The Lord Bless you and Protect you!
The Lord deal kindly and graciously with you!
The Lord bestow His favor upon you and grant you peace!
