This is the continuation of a previous post called The Double Passunder and the Rapture – Part 1. If you haven’t read it yet please read it now.
Closing with the understanding of the double Passover it should be pointed out that:
- When JESUS takes part as a LAMB, HE celebrates the Passover with those who do not believe in HIM yet. Those that need their sins to be forgiven.
- Those that celebrated the Passover with HIM as the High Priest, they already believed in HIM. HIS disciples had witnessed many miracles and wonders done by HIM. These people literally celebrated both conditions at the same time, JESUS as LAMB and JESUS as High Priest.
Let’s come back to the vision of July 14th.
What is still pending to explain is the meaning of that glass door that people had to pass under it, and why was there enough water under it to force us to hold our breath for a long while.
The meaning of the glass door can be easily explained by the following passage, (1 Corinthians 13:11-12), “11 When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. 12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.” KJV.
The glass door of the vision represents the glass that we see through now. JESUS from inside the cave, invited HIS people to come in. But they could only see HIM through the glass, darkly. They needed faith to accept the invitation.
I added verse eleven above because it explains another point. Faith will grow on us. If you accept JESUS in your heart, HE will lead you through HIS word helping you to understand the scriptures. Your faith will increase and once you are ready you will have to trust HIM again to pass under the second glass door into the dark chamber.
The 30 to 40 feet run we had to make from the first glass to the second represents the travel our faith takes under HIS direction. once we reached the second glass door our faith had increased enough to blindly take the second plunge into the dark chamber.
But why was there all that water inside the cave?
To answer this question we must remember the conversation between Nicodemus and JESUS, in (John 3: 1-7), “1 There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews: 2 The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him. 3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. 4 Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother’s womb, and be born? 5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. 6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. 7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.” KJV.
The water under the first glass door represents the baptism by water. We have to believe in JESUS to be baptized in water. We must see things darkly and believe taking the first plunge and passing under the first glass door.
I think you already figured it out what the second glass door represents. Yes, it is the baptism of the SPIRIT. Once our faith increases enough we are ready to accept the HOLY SPIRIT and go into the dark chamber.
So the water in both glass doors represents the process of being born again. We must be born of the SPIRIT to enter into Kingdom of GOD.
There is still one more thing to explain. Why are we going into the dark chamber? what happens into the dark chamber?
To answer these questions we have to go into (Matthew 27:50-53), “50 Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost. 51 And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent; 52 And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose, 53 And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.” KJV.
The saints here mentioned resurrected at the time of HIS death but they came out of the graves after HIS resurrection, which happened three days afte. That means they stayed inside the graves for three full days, in darkness.
I think you might already know were I am going with this but let’s put the final hint for all those who are not there yet.
In (Matthew 16:4), ” 4 A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given unto it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas. And he left them, and departed.” KJV.
In this passage the pharisees and sadducees asked HIM for a sign but HE won’t give them anything but the promise of the sign of the prophet Jonah. The three days of darkness.
In (Matthew 24:34-36), ” 34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled. 35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. 36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.” KJV.
In this passage, this generation refers to the evil and adulterous generation of (Matthew 16:4), (Matthew 23:36), and (Genesis 7:1), (Psalms 12:7). They will not pass away until the Day of the LORD, a day of vengeance comes upon them and gets them by surprise.
And the day of the LORD will get them by surprise because they will be aware of the sign of Jonah after it had happened, for they will not be part of it. In the sign of Jonah only take part those who have been baptized by the SPIRIT of GOD, only those who by the evolution of their faith in CHRIST dare to go into the dark chamber of the vision.
What will happen to us during those three days has not been revealed to me, but what happens right after those three days end, has. It is the Rapture of the Church. JESUS will take away those who are ready and also the innocent.
In (Mark 10:14-15), “14 But when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God. 15 Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not enter therein.” KJV.
After reading this passage, how could the LORD leave behind the children if they are the very example of those who want to be raptured?
If your children disappear out of the blue, as well as many millions of other children, do not be distressed nor overwhelmed for their absence, for they are with GOD. The children have to be taken to confirm the unbeliever it is GOD who took them and not any alien ship. That way, the unbeliever will confirm the sign of Jonah after the fact and they will know the tribulation has started.
The Double Passunder represents the rebirth of the faithful, being baptized by water and by the HOLY SPIRIT bring us right into the dark chamber for the three days of darkness. What happens in there is probably a process of final purification that makes us ready to receive our glorified bodies. Whatever it is that happens there remember, it is JESUS himself who takes us there so it has to be for our own good.
Do not be left behind, believe JESUS is the son of GOD and you will be baptized by water, keep believing and studying the word of GOD because the HOLY SPIRIT will guide you to understand it the way you are supposed to.
Remember to take communion renewing your covenant as often as you can, always thinking that JESUS lives in you and you live for HIM.
GOD bless you and keep you.
