Third Seal
By: Jo Smith….. January 7, 2020
REV 6: 5 And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.
6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.
All of these seven seals show the beautiful ministry of our wonderful Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Yet every message that I have ever heard or read on this subject blasphems and diminishes the beauty of the precious work our Lord did for us.
They have all destroyed the beauty of God’s words and made it to be evil and vile, thus glorifying satan. Jesus himself said, The Scriptures are they which TESTIFY OF ME.
Yet these false teaches, with one consent, put satan in these beautiful words instead of Jesus.
Genesis one is about the beautiful ministry of Jesus Christ; yet the false teachers try to turn it into a messed up attempt to create a universe.
They would have all done much more good if they had said nothing until and if they could receive truth from The Holy Ghost, our true Teacher.
Yet they were all out to make a name for themselves, (tower of Babel) and to get riches; sure mark of the beast.
This third seal holds a most beautiful prophecy of the glorious work our Jesus did for us, to redeem us back to God….. to give us eternal life. The false teachers made havoc of this beauty and the flocks of churched folks cling to their lies and care nothing for the glorious truth.
Hebrews 10:
5 Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me: 6 in burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure.
7 Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God.
8 Above when he said, Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and offering for sin thou wouldest not, neither hadst pleasure therein; which are offered by the law;
9 then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second.
10 By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
In the above verses we see that the Book was written about Jesus. He said, I come to do they will, O God. By that will we are sanctified to God through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. He PURCHASED US WITH HIS OWN BLOOD. He PURCHASED US WITH HIS OWN LIFE. We are now his purchased possession. Ye are not your own but you are BOUGHT with a price, the precious blood of Jesus….. a Day’s work.
So the volume of God’s book is about Jesus; not satan or the beast or the antiChrist. Sure they are in there, but they are not the main subject of the Holy Book. Jesus is. Jesus is the ‘rider’ on these Horses or spirits or power.
Mat. 13: 38 the field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one
30 Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.
Now there we see that the wheat is the children of the kingdom of Christ. He gathers them to himself, into his ‘barn’.
REV 6: 5 And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.
6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.
You need to learn that a horse is not speaking of a natural animal horse. It is a symbol of power. Or spirit.
The word, BLACK, here is not speaking of the COLOR black. Let me show you that:
Here is a meaning I found in Strongs:
Strong: H2447
Orig: by reduplication from an unused root apparently meaning to be dark; darkly flashing (only of the eyes); in a good sense, brilliant (as stimulated by wine):--red.
Use: TWOT-646a Adjective Masculine
Joel 2:10
The earth shall quake before them; the heavens shall tremble: the sun and the moon shall be dark, and the stars shall withdraw their shining:
[The earth here is the carnal church; it will be afraid when this army of Jesus goes out against them with this Black horse rider. The heavens are the religious folks who are in a lukewarm condition. The sun is the light of God which will shine no more at all in this Babylon mess. It also shows putting the OT Law away, or into darkness. No ‘sunlight’ there anymore. The moon will be dark and not give out her light, because the moon is the law, or night light. Jesus puts that completely out when He gets on the Black Horse to balance things back to God’s original EQUALITY. The stars are those OT players who now will shine no more for they are put away from God forever.]. This happened at Calvary. Jesus nailed that law to his cross and took it out of the way.
When God first began to show me that EQUALITY was the very heart of God; of Christianity, I honestly wondered if this is truly God showing me this. I had always been taught that men are over the woman and she can’t speak or teach or preach or have anything to do in the ministry. I tried to obey this, but God kept moving on me till one Day I fell down by my couch and prayed earnestly to God to show me his truth.
He immediately said, that is LAW, YOU ARE NOT UNDER LAW. I WAS FREE THEN and He has been teaching ever since that day. I am a son of God with Christ in me and I can teach what He gives me or pay the price of disobedience.
I will not obey man and miss God.
Here is a beautiful prophecy spoken by Mary, the Mother of Jesus. It proves what Jesus would do when he took those balances in his hand:
Luke 1: 46 And Mary said,
My soul doth magnify the Lord,
47
and my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.
48
For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: (proving that it was women in the low estate). for, behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.
49
For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; and holy is his name.
50
And his mercy is on them that fear him from generation to generation.
51
He hath shewed strength with his arm; he hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.
52
He hath put down the mighty from their seats, and exalted them of low degree.
53
He hath filled the hungry with good things; and the rich he hath sent empty away.
54
He hath holpen his servant Israel, in remembrance of his mercy;
55
as he spake to our fathers, to Abraham, and to his seed for ever.
[52
He hath put down the mighty from their seats, and exalted them of low degree.]
He put down the mighty from their seats, or place of authority or rulership; men.
He EXALTED or lifted up them of LAW DEGREE; WOMEN.
There; he made the balance EQUAL. All of the above is the work of that rider with the pair of balances in his hand or power. (And yet carnal minded men claim that this rider is the beast or satan; my my. They do give the wicked one credit with bringing back equality. Not for a minute).
Now when you put man in one scale and woman is the other side, THEY ARE EQUAL. Paul and Jesus both said, you are ALL ONE; means equal.
“In Christ there is neither male nor female; Jew nor Greek; bond nor free BUT YOU ARE ALL ONE’.
THAT IS WHAT JESUS DID WHEN HE GOT ON THAT BLACK HORSE AND TOOK THOSE BALANCES IN HIS HAND. Praise God.
[See here, it also means that Jesus made all people’s of the world as equals. No more slaves or people being in bondage to anyone. We are all free because of Jesus taking those balances in his precious hand. And Jews are not above anyone else.]
So now when you hear someone saying, a man can and a woman can’t, know that they are in the darkness and cannot see any light. The sun went down over them. The moon does not give them any light and the stars are dark over them. They do not even have a flashlight. They are in total darkness or blackness of night. If you cling to the unequal balances, one up and the other down, as in Daniel, [you are weighed in the balances and found ‘wanting’ or lacking, because it was not equal, then you will have the same fate: this night your soul will be required of you.
[When Jesus puts you into that balance to weigh you, and you are still clinging to an unbalanced religion or life, you will be destroyed, for this is when Jesus brings you to judgment].
The bright light of Jesus on that Black horse blinded them.
This next verse is of utmost importance to understanding this black horse:
Micah 3:6
Therefore night shall be unto you, that ye shall not have a vision; and it shall be dark unto you, that ye shall not divine; and the sun shall go down over the prophets, and the day shall be dark over them.
And even Though this next one dips down into the sixth seal, I wish to use it here to help show you that this black horse is actually showing something that was made DARK.
Revelation 6:12
And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;
Now we know that the sun did not become black in color, but was dark in the noon day. Dark. The Moon or law was not now going to give out her light. The stars also are now dark over that OT land or Law. That is what this black Horse is all about.
Micah 3: 6 Is showing the result of Jesus riding this Black horse what it caused to that Old Testament law system that God always hated: He took away any visions from them, meaning there would be NO MORE PROPHETS. He made it DARK (or black) over them, (Who? The OT Prophets), that they could never divine or prophesy again. The SUN went down over those PROPHETS and the day was DARK over them.
It is still dark over them; they still have no vision; they will never have the light of Day again. There has never been another prophet since John the Baptist that people had to go to to hear from God. God now speaks to us by his SON.
So when Jesus took to this black horse he stopped that OT law system; wounded that old beast head and stopped it forever. Many wonderful changes took place in the world because of this action of Jesus Christ.
The best thing to ever happen to this world was when Jesus got on that ‘black horse’ and took those balances in his hand or power.
Yes, the ‘hand’ shows power. It was now in his power to bring UNITY OR EQUALITY. That is what his balances did.
God made Adam and Eve as EQUALS. Neither one was to rule over the other. But when Adam rebelled against God, set himself up as god, he deceived Eve into taking up law or that ‘tree of knowledge of good AND EVIL.
Thus he brought her down and himself up to rule over her. From then on, till our precious Jesus sat on that black horse with those BALANCES in HIS HAND, the women of this world have been horribly mistreated and cheated, by that law which was in the hands of sinful man.
Even today, in much or most of the world, that old wounded head of law took back over and women have been still under that BONDAGE that Jesus delivered us from. As soon as the Apostolic Church in Acts died off this earth, the carnal church men took back over and set up a MAN’S CHURCH, run by men and all others held in bondage. So it has been ever since.
We have had preachers/pastors/prophets/ etc, that taught that a ‘man can and a woman can’t. What makes this so bad is how many women just accepted these lies without question or studying the Word of God for proof.
So due to these lies, men can take more than one wife, thus, according to Malachi, from Adam down, dealt treacherously against their wives.
But to make it even worse, they prevented women from taking our rightful place in the ministry and work of God. Many women think they have no need to even study the word of God, due to these lies of man who hold the truth in unrighteousness.
Some evil religions even make their women cover up from head to foot while the men can just do as they please. They can marry many women and beat them and just treat them any old way. It is that evil brought down from Adam who is the first head of this hideous beast. Their main evil is the putting down of the daughters of God.
But Jesus changed all of that:
Jeremiah 31:12
Therefore they shall come and sing in the height of Zion, and shall flow together to the goodness of the Lord, for wheat, and for wine, and for oil, and for the young of the flock and of the herd: and their soul shall be as a watered garden; and they shall not sorrow any more at all.
[This is the blessing that Jesus gave to his people/. Men and women.]
Joel 1:10-12 Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)
10
The field is wasted, the land mourneth; for the corn is wasted: the new wine is dried up, the oil languisheth.
11
Be ye ashamed, O ye husbandmen; howl, O ye vinedressers, for the wheat and for the barley; because the harvest of the field is perished.
12
The vine is dried up, and the fig tree languisheth; the pomegranate tree, the palm tree also, and the apple tree, even all the trees of the field, are withered: because joy is withered away from the sons of men.
[All of the above was the result of that old wounded head of law rearing up his ugly head again and tearing down the Vine of Jesus which he had used to set us all free. They took it down again and set back up that old law head of ‘a man can and a woman can’t.]
Joel 2:23-25 Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)
23
Be glad then, ye children of Zion, and rejoice in the Lord your God: for he hath given you the former rain moderately, and he will cause to come down for you the rain, the former rain, and the latter rain in the first month.
24
And the floors shall be full of wheat, and the fats shall overflow with wine and oil.
25
And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpiller, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you.
[Here Jesus is restoring to his people what that old law head took away. Now we will be free forever, since Jesus sat on that Black horse and made all the wheat, barley, wine and oil flourish again. ]
Amos 5:11
Forasmuch therefore as your treading is upon the poor, and ye take from him burdens of wheat: ye have built houses of hewn stone, but ye shall not dwell in them; ye have planted pleasant vineyards, but ye shall not drink wine of them.
[Here God condemns them, (Pastors/prophets) for taking from the very people they should have been feeding, in order to build them some fancy, expensive building, which God hates. They robbed the poor and God hated them for this.]
Amos 8:5
saying, When will the new moon be gone, that we may sell corn? and the sabbath, that we may set forth wheat, making the ephah small, and the shekel great, and falsifying the balances by deceit?
[Now don’t you see clearly here, that it is the money-loving preachers who want to buy and sell? They sell God’s people for robbery. They made merchandise of God’s people, when God had commanded them never to do so.]
Those wicked preachers had unjust weights and false balances, by telling the people of God, you must tithe to me; you must keep me up; you must build me a fancy building, buy me a big car, etc. God hated them for this. They made the ministry to be hated. They even got so bad; big, that they made the people buy them jets and mansions.]
Amos 8:6
That we may buy the poor for silver, and the needy for a pair of shoes; yea, and sell the refuse of the wheat?
[Here it is more of the same; God is putting forth his case against the wicked, money-loving preachers who rob God’s people or had the false balances.]
Matthew 3:12
whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.
[Here Jesus has brought the wicked ministers to judgment and they will be destroyed and God’s people delivered from those who robbed them.]
1 Corinthians 15:36-38 Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)
36 Thou fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die: 37 and that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that shall be, but bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other grain: 38 but God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to every seed his own body.
The wheat and barley is the children of the kingdom of Christ Jesus. Jesus showed that he would gather the wheat into his barn. He will burn up the chaff or tares. In the resurrection, 1Cor 15, it shows we come forth as some grain; wheat or something else; God gives it a body as it pleases him. We shall all be rewarded according to the things we did in our bodies, rather it is good or bad. We shall receive the things we did in our bodies.
Here again the church teaches it all wrong. They say we will all have it just alike; be rewarded the same. No Scripture teaches this. All Scripture says we will each one be judged and rewarded according to the things WE DID IN OUR BODY. I will not be judged by what you did. etc.
So when Jesus went on that cross and gave himself a ransom for us; a sacrifice for our sins, he PURCHASED us From Adam satan. We are not our own but we are BOUGHT WITH A PRICE.
When the vineyard owner hired workers to work a day in his vineyard, he paid them all A PENNY FOR THE DAY’S WORK, EVEN THE ONES HE HIRED IN THE LAST HOUR OF THE DAY. He paid them all equal pay.
A penny a day. When the wounded man was beaten by the robbers, the good Samaritan poured in OIL AND WINE to heal his sores.
God sent forth his word and healed them.
So Oil and Wine show the Word of God and the Spirit of God.
Jesus said, a measure of wheat for a penny. Three measures of barley for a penny. Each one was bought for the same amount….. a penny….a day’s work at Calvary.
He said then, hurt not the oil and the wine. He was giving them a command not to change the word or truth and bring in lies that would put the people back under that bondage that Jesus had delivered us from.
Thank you, my Lord God, for revealing this beautiful message of the third seal to me. Amen!

REV 6: 5 And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.
6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.
All of these seven seals show the beautiful ministry of our wonderful Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Yet every message that I have ever heard or read on this subject blasphems and diminishes the beauty of the precious work our Lord did for us.
They have all destroyed the beauty of God’s words and made it to be evil and vile, thus glorifying satan. Jesus himself said, The Scriptures are they which TESTIFY OF ME.
Yet these false teaches, with one consent, put satan in these beautiful words instead of Jesus.
Genesis one is about the beautiful ministry of Jesus Christ; yet the false teachers try to turn it into a messed up attempt to create a universe.
They would have all done much more good if they had said nothing until and if they could receive truth from The Holy Ghost, our true Teacher.
Yet they were all out to make a name for themselves, (tower of Babel) and to get riches; sure mark of the beast.
This third seal holds a most beautiful prophecy of the glorious work our Jesus did for us, to redeem us back to God….. to give us eternal life. The false teachers made havoc of this beauty and the flocks of churched folks cling to their lies and care nothing for the glorious truth.
Hebrews 10:
5 Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me: 6 in burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure.
7 Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God.
8 Above when he said, Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and offering for sin thou wouldest not, neither hadst pleasure therein; which are offered by the law;
9 then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second.
10 By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
In the above verses we see that the Book was written about Jesus. He said, I come to do they will, O God. By that will we are sanctified to God through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. He PURCHASED US WITH HIS OWN BLOOD. He PURCHASED US WITH HIS OWN LIFE. We are now his purchased possession. Ye are not your own but you are BOUGHT with a price, the precious blood of Jesus….. a Day’s work.
So the volume of God’s book is about Jesus; not satan or the beast or the antiChrist. Sure they are in there, but they are not the main subject of the Holy Book. Jesus is. Jesus is the ‘rider’ on these Horses or spirits or power.
Mat. 13: 38 the field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one
30 Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.
Now there we see that the wheat is the children of the kingdom of Christ. He gathers them to himself, into his ‘barn’.
REV 6: 5 And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.
6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.
You need to learn that a horse is not speaking of a natural animal horse. It is a symbol of power. Or spirit.
The word, BLACK, here is not speaking of the COLOR black. Let me show you that:
Here is a meaning I found in Strongs:
Strong: H2447
Orig: by reduplication from an unused root apparently meaning to be dark; darkly flashing (only of the eyes); in a good sense, brilliant (as stimulated by wine):--red.
Use: TWOT-646a Adjective Masculine
Joel 2:10
The earth shall quake before them; the heavens shall tremble: the sun and the moon shall be dark, and the stars shall withdraw their shining:
[The earth here is the carnal church; it will be afraid when this army of Jesus goes out against them with this Black horse rider. The heavens are the religious folks who are in a lukewarm condition. The sun is the light of God which will shine no more at all in this Babylon mess. It also shows putting the OT Law away, or into darkness. No ‘sunlight’ there anymore. The moon will be dark and not give out her light, because the moon is the law, or night light. Jesus puts that completely out when He gets on the Black Horse to balance things back to God’s original EQUALITY. The stars are those OT players who now will shine no more for they are put away from God forever.]. This happened at Calvary. Jesus nailed that law to his cross and took it out of the way.
When God first began to show me that EQUALITY was the very heart of God; of Christianity, I honestly wondered if this is truly God showing me this. I had always been taught that men are over the woman and she can’t speak or teach or preach or have anything to do in the ministry. I tried to obey this, but God kept moving on me till one Day I fell down by my couch and prayed earnestly to God to show me his truth.
He immediately said, that is LAW, YOU ARE NOT UNDER LAW. I WAS FREE THEN and He has been teaching ever since that day. I am a son of God with Christ in me and I can teach what He gives me or pay the price of disobedience.
I will not obey man and miss God.
Here is a beautiful prophecy spoken by Mary, the Mother of Jesus. It proves what Jesus would do when he took those balances in his hand:
Luke 1: 46 And Mary said,
My soul doth magnify the Lord,
47
and my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.
48
For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: (proving that it was women in the low estate). for, behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.
49
For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; and holy is his name.
50
And his mercy is on them that fear him from generation to generation.
51
He hath shewed strength with his arm; he hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.
52
He hath put down the mighty from their seats, and exalted them of low degree.
53
He hath filled the hungry with good things; and the rich he hath sent empty away.
54
He hath holpen his servant Israel, in remembrance of his mercy;
55
as he spake to our fathers, to Abraham, and to his seed for ever.
[52
He hath put down the mighty from their seats, and exalted them of low degree.]
He put down the mighty from their seats, or place of authority or rulership; men.
He EXALTED or lifted up them of LAW DEGREE; WOMEN.
There; he made the balance EQUAL. All of the above is the work of that rider with the pair of balances in his hand or power. (And yet carnal minded men claim that this rider is the beast or satan; my my. They do give the wicked one credit with bringing back equality. Not for a minute).
Now when you put man in one scale and woman is the other side, THEY ARE EQUAL. Paul and Jesus both said, you are ALL ONE; means equal.
“In Christ there is neither male nor female; Jew nor Greek; bond nor free BUT YOU ARE ALL ONE’.
THAT IS WHAT JESUS DID WHEN HE GOT ON THAT BLACK HORSE AND TOOK THOSE BALANCES IN HIS HAND. Praise God.
[See here, it also means that Jesus made all people’s of the world as equals. No more slaves or people being in bondage to anyone. We are all free because of Jesus taking those balances in his precious hand. And Jews are not above anyone else.]
So now when you hear someone saying, a man can and a woman can’t, know that they are in the darkness and cannot see any light. The sun went down over them. The moon does not give them any light and the stars are dark over them. They do not even have a flashlight. They are in total darkness or blackness of night. If you cling to the unequal balances, one up and the other down, as in Daniel, [you are weighed in the balances and found ‘wanting’ or lacking, because it was not equal, then you will have the same fate: this night your soul will be required of you.
[When Jesus puts you into that balance to weigh you, and you are still clinging to an unbalanced religion or life, you will be destroyed, for this is when Jesus brings you to judgment].
The bright light of Jesus on that Black horse blinded them.
This next verse is of utmost importance to understanding this black horse:
Micah 3:6
Therefore night shall be unto you, that ye shall not have a vision; and it shall be dark unto you, that ye shall not divine; and the sun shall go down over the prophets, and the day shall be dark over them.
And even Though this next one dips down into the sixth seal, I wish to use it here to help show you that this black horse is actually showing something that was made DARK.
Revelation 6:12
And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;
Now we know that the sun did not become black in color, but was dark in the noon day. Dark. The Moon or law was not now going to give out her light. The stars also are now dark over that OT land or Law. That is what this black Horse is all about.
Micah 3: 6 Is showing the result of Jesus riding this Black horse what it caused to that Old Testament law system that God always hated: He took away any visions from them, meaning there would be NO MORE PROPHETS. He made it DARK (or black) over them, (Who? The OT Prophets), that they could never divine or prophesy again. The SUN went down over those PROPHETS and the day was DARK over them.
It is still dark over them; they still have no vision; they will never have the light of Day again. There has never been another prophet since John the Baptist that people had to go to to hear from God. God now speaks to us by his SON.
So when Jesus took to this black horse he stopped that OT law system; wounded that old beast head and stopped it forever. Many wonderful changes took place in the world because of this action of Jesus Christ.
The best thing to ever happen to this world was when Jesus got on that ‘black horse’ and took those balances in his hand or power.
Yes, the ‘hand’ shows power. It was now in his power to bring UNITY OR EQUALITY. That is what his balances did.
God made Adam and Eve as EQUALS. Neither one was to rule over the other. But when Adam rebelled against God, set himself up as god, he deceived Eve into taking up law or that ‘tree of knowledge of good AND EVIL.
Thus he brought her down and himself up to rule over her. From then on, till our precious Jesus sat on that black horse with those BALANCES in HIS HAND, the women of this world have been horribly mistreated and cheated, by that law which was in the hands of sinful man.
Even today, in much or most of the world, that old wounded head of law took back over and women have been still under that BONDAGE that Jesus delivered us from. As soon as the Apostolic Church in Acts died off this earth, the carnal church men took back over and set up a MAN’S CHURCH, run by men and all others held in bondage. So it has been ever since.
We have had preachers/pastors/prophets/ etc, that taught that a ‘man can and a woman can’t. What makes this so bad is how many women just accepted these lies without question or studying the Word of God for proof.
So due to these lies, men can take more than one wife, thus, according to Malachi, from Adam down, dealt treacherously against their wives.
But to make it even worse, they prevented women from taking our rightful place in the ministry and work of God. Many women think they have no need to even study the word of God, due to these lies of man who hold the truth in unrighteousness.
Some evil religions even make their women cover up from head to foot while the men can just do as they please. They can marry many women and beat them and just treat them any old way. It is that evil brought down from Adam who is the first head of this hideous beast. Their main evil is the putting down of the daughters of God.
But Jesus changed all of that:
Jeremiah 31:12
Therefore they shall come and sing in the height of Zion, and shall flow together to the goodness of the Lord, for wheat, and for wine, and for oil, and for the young of the flock and of the herd: and their soul shall be as a watered garden; and they shall not sorrow any more at all.
[This is the blessing that Jesus gave to his people/. Men and women.]
Joel 1:10-12 Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)
10
The field is wasted, the land mourneth; for the corn is wasted: the new wine is dried up, the oil languisheth.
11
Be ye ashamed, O ye husbandmen; howl, O ye vinedressers, for the wheat and for the barley; because the harvest of the field is perished.
12
The vine is dried up, and the fig tree languisheth; the pomegranate tree, the palm tree also, and the apple tree, even all the trees of the field, are withered: because joy is withered away from the sons of men.
[All of the above was the result of that old wounded head of law rearing up his ugly head again and tearing down the Vine of Jesus which he had used to set us all free. They took it down again and set back up that old law head of ‘a man can and a woman can’t.]
Joel 2:23-25 Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)
23
Be glad then, ye children of Zion, and rejoice in the Lord your God: for he hath given you the former rain moderately, and he will cause to come down for you the rain, the former rain, and the latter rain in the first month.
24
And the floors shall be full of wheat, and the fats shall overflow with wine and oil.
25
And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpiller, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you.
[Here Jesus is restoring to his people what that old law head took away. Now we will be free forever, since Jesus sat on that Black horse and made all the wheat, barley, wine and oil flourish again. ]
Amos 5:11
Forasmuch therefore as your treading is upon the poor, and ye take from him burdens of wheat: ye have built houses of hewn stone, but ye shall not dwell in them; ye have planted pleasant vineyards, but ye shall not drink wine of them.
[Here God condemns them, (Pastors/prophets) for taking from the very people they should have been feeding, in order to build them some fancy, expensive building, which God hates. They robbed the poor and God hated them for this.]
Amos 8:5
saying, When will the new moon be gone, that we may sell corn? and the sabbath, that we may set forth wheat, making the ephah small, and the shekel great, and falsifying the balances by deceit?
[Now don’t you see clearly here, that it is the money-loving preachers who want to buy and sell? They sell God’s people for robbery. They made merchandise of God’s people, when God had commanded them never to do so.]
Those wicked preachers had unjust weights and false balances, by telling the people of God, you must tithe to me; you must keep me up; you must build me a fancy building, buy me a big car, etc. God hated them for this. They made the ministry to be hated. They even got so bad; big, that they made the people buy them jets and mansions.]
Amos 8:6
That we may buy the poor for silver, and the needy for a pair of shoes; yea, and sell the refuse of the wheat?
[Here it is more of the same; God is putting forth his case against the wicked, money-loving preachers who rob God’s people or had the false balances.]
Matthew 3:12
whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.
[Here Jesus has brought the wicked ministers to judgment and they will be destroyed and God’s people delivered from those who robbed them.]
1 Corinthians 15:36-38 Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)
36 Thou fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die: 37 and that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that shall be, but bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other grain: 38 but God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to every seed his own body.
The wheat and barley is the children of the kingdom of Christ Jesus. Jesus showed that he would gather the wheat into his barn. He will burn up the chaff or tares. In the resurrection, 1Cor 15, it shows we come forth as some grain; wheat or something else; God gives it a body as it pleases him. We shall all be rewarded according to the things we did in our bodies, rather it is good or bad. We shall receive the things we did in our bodies.
Here again the church teaches it all wrong. They say we will all have it just alike; be rewarded the same. No Scripture teaches this. All Scripture says we will each one be judged and rewarded according to the things WE DID IN OUR BODY. I will not be judged by what you did. etc.
So when Jesus went on that cross and gave himself a ransom for us; a sacrifice for our sins, he PURCHASED us From Adam satan. We are not our own but we are BOUGHT WITH A PRICE.
When the vineyard owner hired workers to work a day in his vineyard, he paid them all A PENNY FOR THE DAY’S WORK, EVEN THE ONES HE HIRED IN THE LAST HOUR OF THE DAY. He paid them all equal pay.
A penny a day. When the wounded man was beaten by the robbers, the good Samaritan poured in OIL AND WINE to heal his sores.
God sent forth his word and healed them.
So Oil and Wine show the Word of God and the Spirit of God.
Jesus said, a measure of wheat for a penny. Three measures of barley for a penny. Each one was bought for the same amount….. a penny….a day’s work at Calvary.
He said then, hurt not the oil and the wine. He was giving them a command not to change the word or truth and bring in lies that would put the people back under that bondage that Jesus had delivered us from.
Thank you, my Lord God, for revealing this beautiful message of the third seal to me. Amen!
