God bless you and thank you for taking the time to read this book. Before you proceed, make sure you have your Holy Bible beside you. All Biblical references were taken from the New International Version of the Holy Bible.

Lord Jesus Christ, I love you with all my heart

When you live life like you have absolute control of the future, you are basically making yourself the master of your destiny. It is self-worship and a complete mockery of the cross of Jesus Christ. God made Jesus Christ a constant component of humanity; when you make Jesus Christ a variable, the equation of your life sums up to zero. If you truly love Jesus Christ, this book will bring you to the place where your salvation is completely sealed in his mighty name. If you are ready to learn from him then let the supernatural spiritual ride to enrich your soul begin; have fun reading.

Jesus loves you!

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

Have you ever come out of a meeting thinking, I understood everything only to later realize that indeed you did not really understand what was going on in the meeting? Back in Oshawa on May 8, 2006, a few hours before I checked into the homeless shelter, I thought I understood what he said to me that morning. It was 9.30 AM when he showed up as I was lying on the couch in the living room with my Bible on my chest and he said to me, "I will make you like Joseph." Before I could say a word to him, he was gone. I opened my Bible not knowing why or what I was looking for but to my surprise, I was staring at Genesis 37 – Joseph’s Dreams. I started reading right away even though I was familiar with the story of Joseph as I was growing up as a kid.

After reading Genesis 37 – 45, all I could think of in relation to what he had just said to me that morning was how Joseph was put in prison and later became the Prime Minister of Egypt; I paid more attention to how successful Joseph became in Egypt. Little did I know that his message to me that morning had nothing to do with that particular aspect of Joseph’s life. I was completely oblivious, ignorant, and spiritually blindsided from the rejection, pain, agony, loneliness, torture, and abuse that Joseph went through as part of God’s purpose for his life. I thought that after reading the life of Joseph that I knew everything and obviously found the meaning of what Jesus just said to me the morning. Most often, when we analyze someone else’s tragedy from an accident, terminal illness, or some ironical twist of fate, we tend to pretend that we understand what they went through. The truth is, as much as we try very hard to convince ourselves that we get it, we can never come to understand what other people go through in life until we step into their shoes. The last time I saw my father and siblings was in 1997.

Every time I make plans to go visit them, he (Jesus Christ) tells me, Not yet. My family is tired of waiting to see me again and the most painful part of it all is the fact that I cannot successfully tell them precisely when I will see them again. This experience has brought me to that place where I am beginning to realize what Joseph went through in a foreign land (Egypt) as he waited for 22 years to see his father (Jacob) again. As painful as it is, one thing is very certain; I cannot argue with the Author of Life. He obviously has his reasons in compliance with God’s divine plan for my life; although the psychological pain appears to be unbearable for me, I still have to constantly remind myself that God’s plan for my life is far more important than the things I want to do. One of the most difficult questions that I deal with every day is: When shall I see my father again.

As a parent, going to work five days a week to provide for my family is hard enough let alone also trying to write books under pressure. Asking me to write books at this stage in my life was without a doubt, the most difficult task for me. It is one thing to work for Jesus Christ as a Christian, but it is something else to work for Jesus Christ with him waking you up each day very early in the morning and sitting right next to you talking while you listen and try to write down everything with no coffee. I am not one of the fast ones when it comes to computer keyboards and that explains why I usually write down everything on a note pad before transferring them to the computer. This approach also helps me to keep up with his speed.

Frankly speaking, from a natural perspective and the standpoint of a healthy lifestyle, writing a book with little or no sleep is absolute torture; but from a supernatural spiritual standpoint and knowing that he is the author of life, working for him under any circumstances is an indescribable incredible experience of a lifetime. It is without a doubt, the best opportunity and honor of a lifetime. One thing I know for certain is that when you leave this world behind you, what matters most are not the things you should have done; the only thing that matters is your final destination because Jesus Christ will make all things new. Thank you Lord Jesus Christ for everything and thank you most of all for putting up with my grumpy attitude.

INTRODUCTION

One of the biggest misconceptions of salvation is the doctrine that as soon as you accept Jesus Christ, from that moment moving forward, your life should become a smooth ride. You should have no difficulties whatsoever obtaining everything you want to live a comfortable life. Also, as soon as you snap your fingers in prayer, God will immediately dispatch His angels through Jesus Christ to bring you whatever you asked for. Contrary to this cheap spiritually baseless popular belief system, Jesus gave us an opposite promise when he said: I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world. John 16:33.

Our insatiable desire to constantly look for the things that are pleasing to the flesh, accounts for the number one reason why humanity has a hard time embracing the true spiritual definition of salvation. If salvation is systematically manifested through a comfortable lifestyle, then Stephen would not have been stoned in Acts 7:59, John the Baptist would not have made a home for himself in the wilderness, John the Baptist would not have been beheaded, Apostle Paul would not have died with an incurable affliction, Mary would not have watched with excruciating agony as her son was being led to the cross, and Jesus would not have been tortured beyond facial recognition before he was crucified.

The Bible teaches in Genesis 1:26 that God created us in His own image. With this truth, the question is: What does God’s image look like?

❖  Does God have a flesh?

❖  Does God have natural eyes to see things?

❖  Does God walk to places in order to see, smell, feel, and touch things?

❖  Does God have a unique recognizable voice like humans?

While the answers to these questions are somewhat obvious, one thing we know for certain is that Jesus gave us a very clear definition of God’s nature when he spoke to the Samaritan woman. God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth. John 4:24. We know that when Jesus comes back, he will give us spiritual bodies to enable us ascend into heaven just like he did after his resurrection. This spiritual body is identical to the body God originally created in man in the beginning when Adam was put in charge of the Garden of Eden. When God created that body, it was designed to see in spirit just like God himself. With the physical human eyes, we can only see as far as distance permits us and that also includes the condition of our eyes; if there is something blocking our view then we obviously cannot see beyond that point. On the other hand, there is no limit as to how far the spiritual eyes can see because they are powered by the soul. Spiritual eyes can see as far as the soul can take them; the spiritual eyes God originally gave man, were designed to see things from a limitless perspective.

God created the flesh for every living creature that dwells on earth but the flesh He originally used to make Adam and Eve was without blemish, completely immune from all diseases because it was made to live forever. That unique flesh was designed for both heaven and earth; it explains why the disciples were able to watch Jesus in flesh ascend into heaven because after his resurrection, Jesus was equipped with that unique sinless flesh when he left our sins on the cross. With this flesh, Jesus was able to appear in different places without physically walking there unlike he used to do before he died on the cross.

The Bible teaches that all believers are one in the body of Christ. As much as we are all one in Christ, we are still different when it comes to the physical sinful flesh we carry around because we have different shapes, color and DNA. One thing is very clear; the natural spiritual part of every human flesh remains the same in every human being – there is no difference whatsoever. The natural spiritual components of every flesh comprises of blood and water. The blood and water that flows in every human are the same regardless of your race, color, shape, and DNA. The fact that God made the natural spiritual components of the flesh more powerful than all other components of the human body, explains why blood transfusion cannot change the color of your skin. Without blood and water, there will be no life because these two components represent the physical aspects of God’s creation of life on earth. Following this unique representation, it explains why the world with all its knowledge and the rapid advancement in technology, will never come to that place where man can successfully manufacture blood and water.

When God first spoke to Adam about the tree in the middle of the Garden of Eden (the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil), Adam took the time to listen to God, he was not afraid, and he did not try to run away from God. That was because the spirit of man was originally designed to be attracted to God’s voice. Unfortunately, as soon as Adam and Eve ate from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, fear was immediately injected into man through sin which transformed our spirit to become repellent to the voice of God; to this day, man is born with the natural instinct of trying to run away from God. Jesus came to die on the cross to take away the sins of the world so that once again, the spirit of man will have the opportunity of becoming attracted to the voice of God as it was in the beginning.

From time to time we see all things made by man fall apart; all man-made creativity at some point usually stop working; sometimes because they run out of power or some parts may need replacement for the invention to start working again. The distinctive nature of God sets Him apart from humanity in the sense that even though man lives to die at a certain age, God created the human soul to live forever. The sun, the moon and the stars never run out of power. Snow and rain fall every year; the land and sea pretty much respect each other and human life still comes from the unification of a man and a woman. The life of every new born starts as a baby and the human body still depends on food for survival. While the different parts of the body still maintain their individual designated functions, blood and water are still the two principal liquids that power human life. The truth is that neither night nor day has ever failed to show up. The natural state of man on earth will always remain natural emanating from the fall of man in the Garden of Eden.

On the other hand, the supernatural attributes of God can never be attained by man and God’s amazing art of creation can never be matched by man’s creative technology in human history. The soul of man will always be the most important entity of God’s creative library. That explains why Jesus said: Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away. Matthew 24:35. The words Jesus is referring to are the same words that were used to create the spirit of man. In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it. John 1:1-5. The spirit of man is God’s most precious possession in His kingdom because it is the same spirit that He used for His son in human flesh when he came to die for our sins on the cross.

God used Egypt as a symbol of the sinful world. Just like Egypt was the richest country on earth when Pharaoh persistently mocked God during the Ten Plagues, likewise the dark forces of this world that are persistently mocking the cross of Jesus Christ even through the church, are also the wealthiest group of people in the world. Their goal is to move the entire human race back to the satanic worship that existed in Egypt and also to enslave the world just like God’s people were enslaved back in Egypt. Christians wake up! Christians wake up! Christians wake up! Jesus said, A man’s enemies will be the members of his own household. Matthew 10:36. Judas Iscariot who betrayed Jesus was a member of Jesus’ household who eventually became Jesus’ number one enemy.

Moses who was once a member of Pharaoh’s household also eventually became Pharaoh’s worst nightmare and greatest enemy when God called Moses. Dear children, this is the last hour; and as you have heard that the antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come. This is how we know it is the last hour. They went out from us, but they did not really belong to us. For if they had belonged to us, they would have remained with us; but their going showed that none of them belonged to us. 1 John 2:18-19. When the Bible used the term They went out from us, it does not necessarily imply that the antichrist group left the church. What it means is that while the antichrist group is still a physical part of the church, their spirit and soul on the other hand are with the devil. The truth is that more than 80% of all churches in the world are now governed by antichrist leadership. The count-down for the second coming of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ has already started. While no one knows the hour, the end as we know it, is inevitably at hand. I pray that you are ready for him.

Jesus loves you!

CHAPTER 1

THE TEST OF FAITH

God’s Template of Humanity

The last few pages of this book will take you to the Value Index. In this book, for simplification purposes:

›  Face to Face Meetings with Jesus Christ shall be referred to as Book One.

›  Face to Face Meetings with Jesus Christ 2 shall be referred to as Book Two

The true test of Abraham’s faith was manifested when God first called him to leave his parents; not when he tried to sacrifice Isaac. The LORD had said to Abraham, ‘Leave your country, your people and your father’s household and go to the land I will show you.’ Genesis 12:1. After this call, the spiritual flavor of Abraham’s faith took a deep dive when he made the decision to sleep with Hagar, his wife’s maid. After Abraham’s failure, the Bible teaches that God gave him a son called Isaac. The Bible also teaches that God tested Abraham when He asked him to sacrifice Isaac as a burnt offering to Him (God). If God was not very sure of Abraham’s faith in Him, should Abraham be put to such a rigorous test before God can finally understand the level of his faith? If the command to sacrifice Isaac was all about Abraham’s faith then the simple common sense truth is that Abraham already failed before the test started. Recall that when God made the covenant of circumcision with Abraham, God promised him a son through his wife Sarah. Yes, but your wife Sarah will bear you a son, and you will call him Isaac. I will establish my covenant with him as an everlasting covenant for his descendants after him. Genesis 17:19. The Bible teaches that it did not take very long for Abraham to lose faith in that promise from God.

The Bible teaches that after waiting for a while, when Abraham saw nothing coming from God in fulfillment of that promise, his wife offered her maid Hagar to Abraham because she thought, I am the problem. After sleeping with Hagar, she became pregnant and gave birth to a son who was named Ishmael. This action from Abraham is a clear testimony that God already knew how much faith Abraham had in Him. This also proves beyond reasonable doubt that in God’s plan for humanity, the request to sacrifice Isaac had very little to do with Abraham’s faith because God was no longer looking for that specific quality in Abraham. The test to sacrifice Isaac had everything to do with a bigger picture of God’s divine plan for humanity.

The decision to sacrifice Isaac had everything to do with what God was planning to introduce to humanity by sending His only son to fix the spiritual mess that was created by Adam and Eve in the Garden of
