Greetings Fellow Believers and Anyone Looking In,

Welcome to Shows 14 and 15 of the Hebrews Series, recorded in Windber, Pennsylvania, in 2013. This was the audio-only series I did before going to Sao Paulo, Brazil, in 2014 and recording the Revelation Series.

The letter to the Hebrews is important to understand. It is such a practical letter, explaining to the poor Israelites why their Messiah had come but their kingdom hadn't. The legitimate complaint would have been, "Where is the promised kingdom?" What no one except Paul and a few others at the time realized was that the first coming of Christ in humiliation and the second coming in glory would be separated by 2,000 years during which time God, through Christ, would call out a separate people FROM AMONG THE NATIONS that would form a new body, the body of Christ, in order to bring the celestial realms in subjection to Christ.

SHOW 14 introduces God's use of 7’s based on the 6/1 ratio: six days of creation followed by a Sabbath day; six years of farming followed by a Sabbatical year when the land was to lay fallow; seven sevens of years (49 years), followed by a Jubilee year when property returned to its original owners and slaves were set free. The 6000 yr. plan of God is introduced, allowing for 6,000 years of human rule upon the earth beginning with Adam, followed by a "sabbath rest" for the people of God, which is the Millennium.

We are certainly within only a handful of years until the 6,000 years from Adam expires. We are ideally situated on God's eonian calendar in order to be that generation of Body members that do not see death.

Poor Israel keeps thinking Scripture is fulfilled and the time has arrived for them to enter into the thousand years of stopping (sabbath means "stopping," not "rest.") : When Joshua led them into the promised land, they thought THAT was it; when Messiah came and Pentecost brought thousands into the faith, they thought THAT was it. Hebrews was written to let them know that the Ultimate Sabbath (the Millennium) was still in the future. "A stopping remains for the people of God."

SHOW 15 elaborates on the 6,000 yr plan, including a short teaching on the number 666. A great revelation of this show is that not only is 666 the number of the Beast system, but it also speaks of the exhaustion of human work; PERSONAL human work. We all, at some point, reach 666 in or own lives, where we are "finished" and God truly then gives us a stopping from our labors.

Thanks to Rodney Paris who has put this audio-only series to video so that you can watch it as well as hear it, making it truly multi-media.

Thanks to all of you who have contributed financially to the work as of late. Your contributions keep this work and its worker afloat. These are discouraging days filled with exhaustion and the constant personal call to endurance. Your gifts never cease to refresh a weary soldier. And let me tell you: I am more weary than I've ever been. But we shall endure to the consummation of this eon—with each other's help.

Grace, peace, and love from the Floridan peninsula,

—Martin
