“Deity of Christ, The Divine Character”

deity - divine character or nature, especially that of the Supreme Being; divinity.

- This “Divine Character” is laying inside of each one of us… It’s the Character of Divine Love! All we have to do is express it.

~William Branham~……when a Spirit-born, Spirit-filled man in faith takes that Word into his heart and places it upon his lips, why that is the same as Deity speaking.

~Donald Parnell~• I love humanity and without that character you will never know my message- I’m not worried about those who are right or wrong about me; I still want to display my character with my message.

~Donald Parnell~- It’s important to take the character and the attitude with the quotes. There’s always support when you do. If we fail to take the character and the attitude, then there isn’t any support.

THE MINISTRY IN THE TESTAMENTS IS A MORE EXCELLENT WAY:

It's more about character and less about hierarchy. It's more about responsiveness and less about responsibility. It's more about helping and less about ruling. It's more about life's lessons and less about right and wrong. It's more about micro and less about macro. It's more about fellowship and communion and less about assembling ourselves.

Page 8: ~SONG OF SOLOMON~ I found him whom my soul loveth (Finding Him has everything to do with Love.) - You’ll only find Him when you seek Him with the heart,

- This is a different kind of assembling together. This is more than getting to know about the pastor, or the minister, or the song leaders when they’re doing their part.

- This is getting to know more about one-another… It’s getting to learn about the quality of my brother or my sister. It’s about inquiring within one-another, moving beyond the veil to get to the inside… it’s about getting to, or, reaching for the “Divine Character and Nature” of others. This “Divine Quality or Deity” lies inside!

Page 9: ~SONG OF SOLOMON~ I found him whom my soul loveth (Finding Him has everything to do with Love.) - You’ll only find Him when you seek Him with the heart,

- We came here not only to learn about ourselves, but to inquire within and learn of one-another. Fellowship is needed for a greater kind of learning than the assembling together. Fellowship isn’t learning about one person on Sunday… fellowship is about you and me… it’s about us.

THE MINISTRY IN THE TESTAMENTS IS A MORE EXCELLENT WAY : (Continued)

It's more about unity and being enjoined and less about separation and exclusiveness.

Page 11: ~SONG OF SOLOMON~ I found him whom my soul loveth (Finding Him has everything to do with Love.) - You’ll only find Him when you seek Him with the heart,

THE MINISTRY IN THE TESTAMENTS IS A MORE EXCELLENT WAY : (Continued)

It's more about the moment and less about time. It's more about being spontaneous and less about order. It's more about being an example and modest and less about structured holiness. It's more about perfect oneness and less about equal. It's more about the sunrise and less about the sunset. It's more about a new beginning and less about an old ending.

Page 12: ~SONG OF SOLOMON~ I found him whom my soul loveth (Finding Him has everything to do with Love.) - You’ll only find Him when you seek Him with the heart,

There is always something beyond the setting of something old, and it’s the rising of something new. The rising of the sun is beyond the setting of the sun.

Page 13: ~SONG OF SOLOMON~ I found him whom my soul loveth (Finding Him has everything to do with Love.) - You’ll only find Him when you seek Him with the heart,

JOHN 6:63 "It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing; the words that I have spoken to you are spirit and are life.

Page 14: ~SONG OF SOLOMON~ I found him whom my soul loveth (Finding Him has everything to do with Love.) - You’ll only find Him when you seek Him with the heart,

When the Word moves by Faith from the heart up to the lips it is Spirit and Life being expressed. When it moves from the heart by faith to express itself, then nothing can take it away. Heaven and earth shall pass away, but the Word spoken from the heart shall always stand. I’m not referring to scripture being read from the Bible or a quote being read from a message sermon… I’m talking about a Word, or a smile, or an action that moves by the Divine Character and Nature of the heart and steps out by faith to reach out and touch someone.

Page 15: ~SONG OF SOLOMON~ I found him whom my soul loveth (Finding Him has everything to do with Love.) - You’ll only find Him when you seek Him with the heart,

2 Corinthians 3:6 He has made us competent as ministers of a new covenant--not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.

- When the Word comes from the heart, it doesn’t kill, but it gives forth life… it gives forth energy.- When the Word is spoken or given by its true character and nature, it lifts you up, not put you down. - When the Word is given in its true character/nature it shows competence.

An Exposition Of The Seven Church Ages - Chapter Five - The Pergamean Church Age

Now Jesus knew that there was going to be a terrible drift away from the Word in the Pergamean Age which was as yet two hundred years off from the Patmos vision. He knew that drift would cause them to go into the Dark Ages. He knew that the way man originally got away from God was by first leaving the Word.

Page 17: ~SONG OF SOLOMON~ I found him whom my soul loveth (Finding Him has everything to do with Love.) - You’ll only find Him when you seek Him with the heart,

Drift Away – to lose personal contact over time Hypernyms (to "drift away" is one way to...):- alien; alienate; disaffect; estrange (arouse hostility or indifference in where there had formerly been love, affection, or friendliness)

- Any time that a person makes a choice not to take the character and nature that the Word of the season comes in, it causes a drift away or a separation.

An Exposition Of The Seven Church Ages - Chapter Five - The Pergamean Church Age

If you leave that Word, you have left God. “I am the Word. If you want Deity in your midst, then welcome and receive the Word. Don't ever let anyone or anything get between you and that Word.

Page 19: ~SONG OF SOLOMON~ I found him whom my soul loveth (Finding Him has everything to do with Love.) - You’ll only find Him when you seek Him with the heart,

- Don’t ever let anyone cause you to make the character and nature of the Word feel unwelcome in your life.

LUKE Chapter 7, verses 36 thru 3836 Now one of the Pharisees asked Jesus to have dinner with him, so he went into the Pharisee’s house and took his place at the table. 37 Then when a woman of that town, who was a sinner, learned that Jesus was dining at the Pharisee’s house, she brought an alabaster jar of perfumed oil. 38 As she stood behind him at his feet, weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears. She wiped them with her hair, kissed them, and anointed them with the perfumed oil.

Page 21: ~SONG OF SOLOMON~ I found him whom my soul loveth (Finding Him has everything to do with Love.) - You’ll only find Him when you seek Him with the heart,

LUKE Chapter 7, verses 39 thru 4139 Now when the Pharisee who had invited him saw this, he said to himself, “If this man were a prophet, he would know who and what kind of woman this is who is touching him, that she is a sinner.” 40 So Jesus answered him, “Simon, I have something to say to you.” He replied, “Say it, Teacher.” 41 “A certain creditor had two debtors; one owed him five hundred silver coins, and the other fifty.

Page 22: ~SONG OF SOLOMON~ I found him whom my soul loveth (Finding Him has everything to do with Love.) - You’ll only find Him when you seek Him with the heart,

LUKE Chapter 7, verses 42 thru 4442 When they could not pay, he canceled the debts of both. Now which of them will love him more?” 43 Simon answered, “I suppose the one who had the bigger debt canceled.” Jesus said to him, “You have judged rightly.” 44 Then, turning toward the woman, he said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I entered your house. You gave me no water for my feet, but she has wet my feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair.

Page 23: ~SONG OF SOLOMON~ I found him whom my soul loveth (Finding Him has everything to do with Love.) - You’ll only find Him when you seek Him with the heart,

LUKE Chapter 7, verses 45 thru 47 45 You gave me no kiss of greeting, but from the time I entered she has not stopped kissing my feet. 46 You did not anoint my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with perfumed oil. 47 Therefore I tell you, her sins, which were many, are forgiven, thus she loved much; but the one who is forgiven little loves little.”

Page 24: ~SONG OF SOLOMON~ I found him whom my soul loveth (Finding Him has everything to do with Love.) - You’ll only find Him when you seek Him with the heart,

LUKE Chapter 7, verses 48 thru 50 48 Then Jesus said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.” 49 But those who were at the table with him began to say among themselves, “Who is this, who even forgives sins?” 50 He said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you; go in peace.”

An Exposition Of The Seven Church Ages - Chapter Five - The Pergamean Church Age

This which I am giving you (the Word) is a revelation of Myself.

I AM THE WORD. Remember that!"

Page 26: ~SONG OF SOLOMON~ I found him whom my soul loveth (Finding Him has everything to do with Love.) - You’ll only find Him when you seek Him with the heart,

- If someone wants Deity in their midst, then welcome the character and nature of the Word of the season into their midst. If you have made the Word of the Hour and the character of it feel welcome, then you’ve got Deity in your midst! It’s when a person drifts away, or, they lose contact with the character and nature of the Word, that’s when they make the Word feel unwelcomed… the Word and the Body are the same!

Page 27: ~SONG OF SOLOMON~ I found him whom my soul loveth (Finding Him has everything to do with Love.) - You’ll only find Him when you seek Him with the heart,

- I don’t want to make any part of the Body feel unwelcome, and neither do I want any part of the Body to make me feel unwelcome. The moment that we make one-another feel unwelcomed, that’s the moment that we lose contact with Deity.

There it is, He is Spirit and He is Life.

Page 29: ~SONG OF SOLOMON~ I found him whom my soul loveth (Finding Him has everything to do with Love.) - You’ll only find Him when you seek Him with the heart,

- Reaching out to humanity and trying to lift someone up and making them feel welcome goes beyond man’s traditions and standards of good living.

- He is Spirit and He is Life in all humanity. In Him is life and that life is the light of man.

- Don’t try to make His Word a legal or binding document upon others. Instead, accept His Word and give it out in the same character/attitude that it was given in. Allow it to become fresh Revelation.

An Exposition Of The Seven Church Ages - Chapter Five - The Pergamean Church Age

That is exactly what the Word is; that is exactly what Jesus is. He is the Word. So when a Spirit-born, Spirit-filled man in faith takes that Word into his heart and places it upon his lips, why that is the same as Deity speaking.

Page 31: ~SONG OF SOLOMON~ I found him whom my soul loveth (Finding Him has everything to do with Love.) - You’ll only find Him when you seek Him with the heart,

- We hear from God when man is able to move by Faith, the Word from his heart, and place it upon his lips. It doesn’t matter who the Word comes through; it could be a child speaking from his heart… it could be a sister or a brother speaking from their heart.

- When the Word extends from the heart by Faith, by the character and nature that it was given in, and moves itself through the lips, it is Deity speaking through that person!

Page 32: ~SONG OF SOLOMON~ I found him whom my soul loveth (Finding Him has everything to do with Love.) - You’ll only find Him when you seek Him with the heart,

~Mita Thomas Paora Edwardson~The same Jesus who told his people "follow me" also said "I do nothing til the Father shows me" Jesus didn't require a second opinion or a council of democrats neither did he adopt the theology of any scribe. His leadership came from within himself and that he followed. By this relationship Jesus was able to lead his people out of fundamentalism and by this same relationship we who are ordained to do so will accomplish the same.

Page 33: ~SONG OF SOLOMON~ I found him whom my soul loveth (Finding Him has everything to do with Love.) - You’ll only find Him when you seek Him with the heart,

~Donald Parnell~ The Spirit knows and guides my heart and I have turned away from everything else, no matter the appearance, the cost or the issue. I only want to help remove those walls, those prison bars, and set a people free.

Glorified in Darkness and Strengthened in WeaknessPastor Mita Edwardson, 1st February, 2015Lighthouse Christian Fellowship – Whanganui, New Zealand The Christ Jesus is a broad body and we know that to be so. It’s not just made up of you guys who’ve been around the Word for forty years because Christ is always bringing on people... young people, teenagers, Sunday School ages, people off the street and denominational people... so there’s a broad audience.

Page 35: ~SONG OF SOLOMON~ I found him whom my soul loveth (Finding Him has everything to do with Love.) - You’ll only find Him when you seek Him with the heart,

I want to reach and address that audience so if you’ve already heard what I’ve got to say this morning… be giving and supportive in your heart. Okay. It’s the broader audience that we want to touch with our Word, and we want to send it out from the Lighthouse.

Page 36: ~SONG OF SOLOMON~ I found him whom my soul loveth (Finding Him has everything to do with Love.) - You’ll only find Him when you seek Him with the heart,

3 This church is obviously not just about me, of course. We’ve been together for a long time and that makes us family and part of the same body... so we’re in it together. The vision is that the broader audience needs to hear the things that we have had revealed to us... the food that we have gathered in this little storehouse… we want to give it away.

Page 37: ~SONG OF SOLOMON~ I found him whom my soul loveth (Finding Him has everything to do with Love.) - You’ll only find Him when you seek Him with the heart,

4 We’ve got use of the internet and we’re so thankful for that. We’ve got books being made here… booklets and emails… that get sent out. When I was overseas I started to realise and appreciate the value of the books that are being made from the messages that are preached here. It’s all happening as one Body.

Page 38: ~SONG OF SOLOMON~ I found him whom my soul loveth (Finding Him has everything to do with Love.) - You’ll only find Him when you seek Him with the heart,

My Comment - If someone speaks a Word from the Lord to me and I work ill towards it, then it’s not Love working, but its evil working.

Page 39: ~SONG OF SOLOMON~ I found him whom my soul loveth (Finding Him has everything to do with Love.) - You’ll only find Him when you seek Him with the heart,

I could just sit there and talk to a computer and send emails out, but it’s just not quite the same as being in a live audience like this, and having your dynamics of coming to church and drawing on the Word... it’s just different. It makes for completely different dynamics.

Page 40: ~SONG OF SOLOMON~ I found him whom my soul loveth (Finding Him has everything to do with Love.) - You’ll only find Him when you seek Him with the heart,

5 If there’s any good reason for us to be here as a gathering… as a church or an assembly… it’s because you all bring your lick of fire, your character and personality, and it actually does shape the way the Word is presented. I’m trying to take the strangeness out of our manner of communication. I don’t want to say ‘far-out’ things without giving an explanation and understanding of the statements we make. Sometimes we make statements that seem ‘far-fetched’ if measured by the traditional concepts that have been taught.

Page 41: ~SONG OF SOLOMON~ I found him whom my soul loveth (Finding Him has everything to do with Love.) - You’ll only find Him when you seek Him with the heart,

6 I don’t want to leave that mysteriousness so I trust that the Holy Spirit will give us, and I’m addressing the broader audience with this thought, a clear understanding, which will break down all the barriers of traditional concepts. When I say things like, “You were there and you created the world”, and “You existed before there was even a world”… that sounds far-fetched to traditional believers From the traditional point of view that’s like, ‘Wow, where is he coming from’?

Page 42: ~SONG OF SOLOMON~ I found him whom my soul loveth (Finding Him has everything to do with Love.) - You’ll only find Him when you seek Him with the heart,

7 Yesterday I gave my son a little insight to how I’m feeling about the traditional understandings. I told him that there’s no hell that people are going to. So there again, traditionally, that is strikingly different because according to what’s been ‘scripturally’ taught, it’s many times been our interpretation of it. We’ve drawn a picture of a ‘heaven to get to’ and a ‘hell to stay away from’. We’ve all heard those statements that have been made over the years, but really, it’s not true.

Page 43: ~SONG OF SOLOMON~ I found him whom my soul loveth (Finding Him has everything to do with Love.) - You’ll only find Him when you seek Him with the heart,

There is no heaven to miss. You are either eternal or you’re not. Because we come from God, we’re born by His Spoken Word and that makes us His off-spring, and in a sense that’s what we always were, so how is it that we’ve got a heaven to make?
