Praise the Lord, this is lesson 8 of the online course that we are commenting upon for this series Kabbalah Study. The first paragraph actually the first several paragraphs are a review, and we're going to review all of these principles before we go on. The first paragraph reads, the Primordial kings have fallen, chaos reigned, death has been created in order for resurrection to exist, for all life comes out of death, yet not all life must lead to death. This is the true order of things prior to our discussion of the rectification of the primordial kings, we must first discuss more about the purpose of their fall. We will start with the first sentence, the primordial kings have fallen. I will review with you who the primordial kings are, and how they fell, and I will also review our comparison of Lurianic Kabbalah, which is what this online course is teaching, and the opposing viewpoint of Christ centered Kabbalah. Let me remind you that the basic foundation of the differences between Lurianic Kabbalah and all existing doctrine of Kabbalah, and Christ centered doctrine is that the classical Kabbalah Lurianic and otherwise, comes forth out of the belief that God ordained the fall. And this very message has penetrated the kingdom church, which I am convinced that the teachers of the kingdom church have tapped into Kabbalah without telling the people that they're teaching that they're getting their doctrine from Kabbalah.
But Christ centered Kabbalah takes the guts of Kabbalah, which is excellent, this whole concept of Adam Kadmon, it comes out of Lurianic Kabbalah and it's an excellent system, an excellent way of studying the depths of the Scriptures. So we're staying with Adam Kadmon, we're staying with the principles of the Sefirot, there's a lot of gold in Kabbalah, but we are imparting a different foundation, a foundation which says the living God would never deliberately cause his creation to fall. The fall came forth because of sin, which was an act and is an act of rebellion on the part of Malkhut, the Malkhut of the world of points.
So does anybody have any questions about what I just said? If not let's start our review with drawing#1, and right now we're dealing with who are the primordial kings. Drawing #1 doesn't really go into who the primordial kings are, but it's the beginning of the story, and hopefully before this evening is over, I will show you or review for you who the primordial kings are. Now right from the beginning Christ centered Kabbalah has a strong difference of opinion with Lurianic Kabbalah. What I have on the board is the head of Adam Kadmon, showing you the world of bound lights in Adam Kadmon's mouth, and the world of points which is formed from the light that descends from Adam Kadmon's eyes. Can everybody see that on the board? Do you need me to stand up and point that out to you? Is everybody okay? Okay.
Now we're told by Lurianic Kabbalah and rightly so, that all of the world are attached to one another, and the way they're attached to one another is by overlapping, they overlap one another. Where a new begins, it begins by overlapping from the center point of the world underneath. This is called the principle of overlapping worlds, and we're told that the new world or the world that is lower down begins at Adam Kadmon's navel, we're told that the world of points begins at Adam Kadmon's navel, and Adam Kadmon's navel is the lower third of the Tiferet, so that means the world of points which is below the world of bound lights, now remember the world of bound lights is in Adam Kadmon's mouth, the world of points is below Adam Kadmon's navel. So the world of points is attached to the world of bound lights by an overlapping which means that the world of points begins at the lower third of the Tiferet of the Sefirot of Adam Kadmon's mouth. Does anyone need me to say that again, I'll say it as many times as necessary, don't let me go on if you don't understand this.
So we see the world of points is a circular world that's attached to Adam Kadmon by overlaying the lower Sefirot of Adam Kadmon's mouth. Okay is everybody okay? Now this is a problem right here, there's a deviation right here, there's a parting of the ways between Lurianic Kabbalah, and Christ centered Kabbalah right here. Lurianic Kabbalah says that the world of bound lights initially merged, well let me tell you, I'm sorry let me tell you this first, the light that we're talking about is the light that the Ayn Sof filtered into Adam Kadmon, it's in Adam Kadmon's in the inside of Adam Kadmon's belly and this light is starting to come out. Remember Adam Kadmon is a filter, Adam Kadmon is a filter, his job is to quantify the light because if all the light poured out at once, there would be no distinction between vessels and the light that fills the vessels.
If all of the light poured out of Adam Kadmon at once, there would be just light everywhere, but what we're striving for is a formed creation. So therefore Adam Kadmon's job is to quantify or to filter the light to let only measured amounts of light out at a time. So first the light came out of Adam Kadmon's ears, that same light spread downward and came out of his nose, and that same light spread downward further, and came out of his mouth. So it's really, the light that's coming out of Adam Kadmon's mouth is the collection that came out of Adam Kadmon's ears and nose, all this light that's now on the outside of Adam Kadmon's face, the light that came out of his ears, the light that came out of his nose, is all coming together in Adam Kadmon's mouth. Is everybody okay? Okay, now this is the principle that any higher up, that any place above Adam Kadmon's mouth, the light is still too fine, actually the word used is not a word that you would hear in our common English, it's rare, but it means fine, the light is too fine to form a vessel out of it, by the time the light, the collective light of the ears, nose, and mouth is found in Adam Kadmon's mouth, that light is just beginning to become coarse enough to be formed.
Is everybody okay? What we find in Adam Kadmon's mouth is one vessel with ten lights. Why because the vessels have just begun to be formed, and the first formation is one single vessel for ten lights when ultimately there should be ten vessels with ten lights, is everybody okay? Now let me remind you what happened in the world of bound lights, okay. Every time the light tried to pour into the vessel, now remember the vessel is formed from light. So every time the contents of the vessel the light that was to fill the vessel poured into the vessel, it nullified the vessel, if you had a cup made of ice, and you pour hot water into the cup, it melts the ice and you can no longer tell the difference between the water that forms the cup, and the water that poured into it. Is everybody okay? Okay, that's what was happening in the world of bound lights. So for that reason Adam Kadmon inhaled, because the light is thought of as a breath, he inhaled the light that came out of his mouth, and he breathed it out and he breathed it back in.
Now he did not breathe back in the vessels, Adam Kadmon just breathed back in the light that is destined to fill the vessels of the world of bound lights. So now the light that was the coarser light that was designed to form the vessels, now that it didn't, now think of it in terms of a vessel made of ice, there was no longer any hot water in it, so the cup or the vessel was free to form itself and strengthen itself in its form, because the inner light the filling light was not there to dissolve the vessel. Okay, now Lurianic Kabbalah tells us that when Adam Kadmon exhaled the breath of the mouth for the second time, that there was still only one vessel, okay. I did read in some book, I can't tell you which one, that ten vessels were already forming but were not really formed, so there was only one vessel, but the Lord has told me, at the time that Adam Kadmon exhaled his breath of the mouth the second time, that ten vessels were already formed. Does everyone understand the deviation between the Christ centered doctrine, Christ centered Kabbalah and Lurianic Kabbalah. Let me say it one more time, and I need you to tell me, if you understand this, because I'm not going on if you don't understand it. Lurianic Kabbalah says that Adam Kadmon breathed out a breath which is light of his mouth, and that breath contained vessels and light that was to fill the vessels. Only the light was melting the vessels, so Adam Kadmon inhaled back in just the light that was filling the vessels, he didn't breath back in the light that was making the vessels, just the filling. In other words he left the vessels alone to form themselves, Lurianic Kabbalah says that at the time that Adam Kadmon exhaled his breath again, there was still only one vessel for only ten lights, but the Lord told me not so, that during this period, of course there was no time then, but for I, I don't know how to explain it to apart from time so, that's how I'm going to do it.
During this time period that Adam Kadmon was holding within him the breath of the world of bound lights, the single vessel of the world of bound lights differentiated in to the ten vessels so that there would be ten lights and ten vessels, one light for each vessel. Everybody okay? Okay. And this aspect of doctrine is the foundation for all that follows. Lurianic Kabbalah says that, now what I have on the board here is the Christ centered Kabbalah, I'm showing you the world of bound lights in three columns. Lurianic Kabbalah says that the world of bound lights had a Keter, a Binah and a Chokhmah in the right place, and all of the other Sefirot in a straight column. Christ centered Kabbalah says no, they were in three columns after the second exhalation, the Sefirot of the world of bound lights were in three columns. Lurianic Kabbalah says that when the light of Adam Kadmon's eyes started to emanate out, they were looking, when they looked out, when the light, now remember these lights are conscious beings, conscious beings, when the light of Adam Kadmon's eyes looked out of his eyes, they were looking for the position of the lights that had already emerged to give them a guideline as to how to position themselves, and when the lights of Adam Kadmon's eyes looked out of his eyes looked out of his eyes, what they saw was the lights of the world of bound lights.
Isaac Luria says when the Keter of the light of the eyes looked out, he saw the Keter of the world of bound lights, and he had no problem placing himself on top of the Tiferet because we're doing overlapping worlds now, remember the first Sefirot of the world of points is overlaying the lower part of the Tiferet of the world below. So when the Keter looked out of Adam Kadmon's eyes, he had no problem seeing the Keter, and the Tiferet, he just lined himself in the right place, the Keter of the world of points went right on top of the Tiferet of the world of bound lights. And the same thing happened with the Chokhmah and the Binah of the world of the light that came out of the eyes. They were high enough so that they saw the Binah and the Chokhmah of the world of points and they, the Binah and Chokhmah of the world of points saw the Binah and Chokhmah of the world of bound lights, and they had no problem placing themselves properly, Binah on the left, and Chokhmah on the right underneath Keter.
But Lurianic Kabbalah says when all of the other Sefirot climbed up into Adam Kadmon's eyes and looked out, because the world of bound lights below Binah and Chokhmah was in a straight line, the lower Sefirot of the world of points did not position themselves properly in three columns, but they repeated the same positioning that was found in the world of bound lights, in a straight column. And therefore the world of points emerged with the lower Sefirot from Chesed through Malkhut, in one single column instead of three columns, but Christ centered Kabbalah says not so. Christ centered Kabbalah says the world of bound lights on the second exhalation appeared in three columns, and the light of the world of points came down and also positioned itself in three columns. I see that I didn't make this drawing clear. I have amended this drawing, I've made it into A and B, and down here in the A section this is the formation of the Sefirot of the world of bound lights, and the world of points according to Isaac Luria, and you could see that the world of bound lights is in black, and the world of points is in red. So you could see that the world of points according to Isaac Luria followed the formation of the world of bound lights, and lined up or emerged in a straight line. Then Isaac Luria continues on to say that the reason that the vessels of the world of points shattered and these shattered vessels are the primordial kings, these shattered vessels appear in the world of action, as the primordial kings which we read about in the Scripture called the Dukes of Edom, in the book of Genesis.
And of course this is all review so I'm not going into these complete details, you can find other messages on this. Now according to Isaac Luria when the light now remember these are all vessels, we're talking about vessels here, when the light poured into the vessels of the world of points, the total measure of light for all ten Sefirot of the world of points poured into the Keter of the world of points. Keter was strong enough to take what it needed and pass the whole measure the whole remaining measure of light on to the Chokhmah. The Chokhmah was strong enough to take what it needed and pass the whole remaining measure of light onto Binah, who also was able to take what she needed and pass on to Da'at, the collective amount of light for Da'at, Chesed, Gevurah, Tiferet, Netzach, Hod, Yesod, and Malkhut. According to Isaac Luria, Da'at could not contain this measure of energy was not, the integrity of its vessel was not strong enough to retain what it needed and pass on the rest of the light. So Da'at shattered and all of the light in Da'at including its own measure fell down to Chesed.
This collective measure of energy according to Isaac Luria was more than Chesed could bear, she was not able to take what it needed and pass the rest on. Now according to Isaac Luria, and of course the same thing happened all the way down the line, each and every vessel could not contain the energy and shattered. This word shattered on this high spiritual plane means they died, and the vessels fell down into the world below that were not yet really created yet, and therefore this corrupt world came into existence. No mention of sin whatsoever. Okay, I'm going to tell you what the Lord's telling me to say right now, I'm going to say this, I remind you that we are the vessels of Malkhut, we are the shattered vessels of Malkhut, and the same problem still exists in the individual today. In varying degrees mortal man has a real problem confessing that they are guilty, they have done something wrong. We had a whole session of this this morning, I'm not picking on you, the Lord told me to say it. It is a major problem in mortal humanity in varying degrees according to whoever you are, it is a flaw of mortal man that he has a problem admitting that he did something wrong, and this is where it starts all the way up here in the world of points, and we're being challenged today to give up this fallen nature and move into the nature of Christ.
We're challenged to say when we did something wrong to stand up and say we did something wrong, and not justify ourselves or make excuses, and the problem that we faced here this morning, that the person who was on the hot seat could not seem to differentiate between justifying herself and saying I won't do it again, and admitting that she did something wrong and saying I won't do it again. That's not the same thing, see both times it was said I won't do it again, but in one case there is an admission that the person did something wrong and in the other case, there was no admission that there was anything wrong, if there was any lack in them, that they did something wrong, it was just I'm okay, but I won't do it again. And we're still trying to help that person to understand that this is not repentance, and it is not confession, and that kind of a, well I'm okay, but I won't do it again, that is the kind of attitude that caused the shattering of the vessels, which is spiritual death, and it's this kind of attitude that will ultimately cause Christ in you to shatter, if you don't overcome it. I'm just giving the example of what happened here this morning, but this is for everybody. Your vessel, Christ, okay, Christ in you is the vessel that is waiting to receive the glorified light of the Lord Jesus Christ, and if whoever this is for, if you cannot confess that your carnal mind is guilty, okay, that is the expression in this world of what Isaac Luria says happened to the Sefirot, he says they were too rigid to take what they needed of the light and pass the rest on, that's what Isaac Luria says and the reality, whatever reality there is of this, that's manifesting in our world today is manifesting in the human nature that cannot take the responsibility, they cannot say I really did something wrong and pass on the condemnation. There's no condemnation in it you see, it's a flaw of human nature. If this is you, if you could hear yourself in this, the Lord's not condemning you, he's telling you that you are mortal and that you are just like everybody else, but some people because of pride cannot believe that they have these human flaws. And if you want to preserve the life of Christ in you, which is your responsibility at some point you are going to have to be able to take this responsibility and pass this rigidity of your carnal mind out of you, because when you cannot admit that you're guilty, what you're doing is holding on to the sin, you're refusing to release the sin, and eventually you will explode and the result is spiritual death. So here we see that Isaac Luria's concept of the shattering of the vessels is the something that took place and is taking place after the fall.
See what happened is that this great man of God, he got a revelation and he got a true revelation but he placed it in the wrong time line. He placed it in a time line that was before the fall, the world of points before the fall, and he imputed this revelation as to be the reason for the fall, you see. This is one of, this is, I don't mean to insult anybody, I'm just telling you how I understand it, and how the Lord has given it to me, this is one of the operations of the carnal mind that results in death. The carnal mind will receive just enough truth to think that everything in your mind is of God you see. He got a true revelation, he placed it in the wrong time frame, he applied the revelation incorrectly. So we've been taught here in the doctrine of Christ that anti-Christ is a mixture. This is what makes the most sincere saints fall, because they get some measure of truth and they think that everything that they're hearing in their mind is truth, and it's not, it's a mixture, and this is how Satan destroys you.
So Isaac Luria had a true revelation and that is that if you're too rigid, and this is Isaac Luria now, the Sefirot were too rigid, they couldn't take what they needed and pass on the rest, they kept it all and they exploded and died. Now the carnal mind gets everything backwards, so Isaac Luria is saying, well what they couldn't pass on was the light and the glory of God, they couldn't take what they needed and pass the rest on, so they exploded, no it's the other way around. They couldn't pass the sin, see this revelation is applied to fallen men, we can't pass on the sin, we can't take of the light of God, what we need and then use it to pass out the sin, because Isaac Luria says the vessels were too rigid, to eject or emit what they didn't need, they were too rigid to emit what was too much for them. But he saw it backwards, it wasn't the light and didn't happen before the fall, this is a truth that's applicable to fallen man, it's the sin the sin that we're too rigid to pass out of us, it's the sin, that we're so bound we've been living this way for so long that we can't switch over to Christ.
Christ is in you waiting to take over your vessel, and you're so rigid, the majority of people, I'm not picking on anyone, it's all of us, some a little more and some a little less, okay, but it's everybody to a degree that you're so set in your ways, you're so set in the way that you think, you're so set in the way that you do things, that you perceive Christ who thinks and does things differently as the enemy, because you're so sure that you are right, and you're rigid that you can't admit that no, even though you're doing it for years and you've survived, that you're still wrong, instead of passing the sin out of you, you pass the glory of God out of you. You've got it backwards, that's what the Lord's trying to tell you.
And the way he helps you is through direct conflict between the mind of Christ and your carnal mind, it's a warfare, it's warfare, if you can't do it for yourself, from the inside, he's attacking your carnal mind from the outside with the truth, the weapon is the truth, but the carnal mind sees the truth as accusation, and sees the lie as the truth. So for everyone of us who has their carnal mind shattered enough for Christ to prevail, you are a miracle, because this is an impossible thing to do. Salvation of the mind of mortal men is an impossibility except that with God all things are possible. Does anybody have any questions or comments about Lurianic Kabbalah teaching of the overlapping worlds of the world of bound lights, the world of points, and the shattering of the vessels? Any questions or comments?
Okay, I'm going to now review what Christ centered Kabbalah says about this, okay which is very different. Christ centered Kabbalah which is I sort of started with this at the beginning, that's drawing #b, and we see the world of bound lights in three columns, I'll just review what I said at the beginning of this message, that the Lord tells me that after Adam Kadmon exhaled the breath of the mouth the second time or let me say it this way, when the breath of the mouth was inhaled into Adam Kadmon, that single vessel of the world of bound lights differentiated into ten vessels, and when Adam Kadmon exhaled the breath of the mouth for the second time, there were now available ten vessels for the ten lights, and the ten vessels lined up in three columns correctly, according to the God ordained order of the Sefirot. Now if this is true, then this completely blows away Isaac Luria's doctrine as to why the Sefirot of the world of points shattered, and exactly that. Christ centered Kabbalah has a different revelation than Lurianic Kabbalah as to why the Sefirot of the world of points shattered, and the reason that comes forth from Christ centered Kabbalah is sin. See Kabbalah has some great teaching and a great, but it's a mixture, it's foundation is corrupt. How can you, well I see how they do it, they impute, from what I could see so far, Lurianic Kabbalah, or Kabbalah in general imputes the sin to the demons and the entities that come forth from the astral plane, they do not impute any sin to the actual fall, they claim that God ordained the actual fall, and that's it's the mind of fallen man that produces or has produced all this problem, and is therefore the job of fallen man to fix himself, which is impossible, see.
So we see that Kabbalah, now I want to say it again it has some great material in it, and I told you all off the tape today that the greatest thing that God has ever given me after himself is the study of Kabbalah, I'm just in mental heaven with these studies that he's given me, you know, but there is a thread going through Kabbalah that will destroy the spiritual life of everybody that pursues it. The foundation is rotten you see. That's the same principle, let me, this is going to be an interesting message tonight, I'm all over the place but it's God. This is the same principle as I have described to you all concerning the spirit and the word in the church, and this seems to be a lesson that a lot of believers have a problem with. When the true Holy Spirit is in the church, the Lord winks at doctrinal error. There are thousands if not millions of Christians that have the true Holy Spirit, that believe in the rapture, that celebrate the pagan holiday of Christmas, etc, etc, etc, and the Lord is with them, he's doing miracles, he's healing their bodies, he's helping them with their finances, even though they're in false doctrine because the spirit is the true spirit, and it is the Holy Spirit that is helping the people in their every day lives, even though they're in doctrinal error.
But when you reverse the situation and you have a church where the false Holy Spirit is prevailing, even if that church has the true doctrine, if the spirit in the church is not the true Holy Ghost, but the counterfeit Holy Ghost which is Satan, how can the Lord be helping the individual people, because it's not his spirit in the church, all they have is a dead word, even though it may be the true word, is a true word that has no life in it, because the spirit in the church is counterfeit Holy Spirit, which is Satan. So therefore having the Holy Spirit but being in false doctrine is a forgivable sin, because you have the true spirit there who will forgive you. But if you yourself have the counterfeit Holy Spirit or you're involved in a church that's ministering the counterfeit Holy Spirit to you, that sin is unforgivable, why? Because the spirit that forgives sins is not in your life. You see it's not that God is punishing one group and blessing another group, it's that there is no forgiveness of sins where the spirit that forgives sins is not present. So whether you have the true doctrine or not, if you have the false spirit, you're dead, and if you have the true spirit and you're immature in your doctrine.
So we see that it's not the word that determines the quality of our life, it's the spirit that determines the quality of our life. This is a misunderstanding that I see through the whole church, they judge on the word and not on the spirit, you see their immaturity you see.
So we're looking at the diagram 1b, does anyone have any questions on anything that I just said? Showing that the world of bound lights does appear of the vessels of the world of bound lights does appear in three columns after the second exhalation of Adam Kadmon's breath. Therefore when the light of the eyes, and remember the lights are conscious beings looked out of Adam Kadmon's eyes and tried to locate the Sefirot that had come before them. So as to have an understanding of how to align themselves. Isaac Luria says down here in drawing a, the world of points the lower Sefirot mis-align themselves because they copied the world bound lights. But Christ centered Kabbalah says no the world of bound lights had it right and I don't hear the Lord, the Lord has not commented, he's not contradicted or commented on Isaac Luria saying, that when the lights that came out of Adam Kadmon's eyes looked out of Adam Kadmon's eyes, they aligned themselves with the already existing world of bound lights. The Lord has not contradicted that, he has not commented on that, therefore I continue to believe that.
The Lord has not corrected me so I'm going with the Lurianic doctrine on that. So the lights that came out of Adam Kadmon's eyes now have aligned themselves properly as you can see in drawing 1b, they're overlapping the world of bound lights starting at the lower third of the Tiferet of the world of bound lights. I don't know if I said that right, the world Sefirot of the world of points are begin at the lower third of the Tiferet of the world of bound lights, and the Sefirot of the world of points overlap the lower half of the Sefirot of the world of bound lights that's how the worlds are attached to one another. So the Lord tells me in therefore Christ centered Kabbalah says that the Sefirot of the world of points did align themselves properly in three columns. You see I don't think I made this clear, Isaac Luria says that when the Sefirot are in three columns, he says this gives them the opportunity to relate to one another. Binah and Chokhmah, Gevurah and Chesed, they play off of one another, Gevurah is power, if Gevurah is not curtailed Gevurah becomes harsh punishing power. Chesed is kindness, if kindness is not curtailed, that person who's overtaking with kindness will become a victim. So Isaac Luria says where the Sefirot are in three columns, they balance each other out, and they each take the light that they need and they don't, they cease from being rigid and they pass the light on.
But Christ centered Kabbalah says no, passing the light on, taking what was needed and passing the light on is not the problem that existed in the world of points. The problem that existed in the world of points is that the light was passed on, as a matter of fact this is just the opposite of what Isaac Luria said, listen to this, and remember the carnal mind is completely backwards to the Christ mind. Isaac Luria says the light came down and each Sefirah was suppose to take it's portion and pass the rest on, which means that by the time the light got down to Malkhut, there would be just the small portion for Malkhut, right, can everybody see that, do you want me to say that again? Can you see that?
But Christ centered Kabbalah says oh no, the light that was being passed down was destined to ultimately be delivered into Malkhut, who I as I told you off the tape this morning according to the books, I'm not sure whether Yesod or Malkhut is the reservoir but I'm saying Malkhut, it is destined according to the plan of creation that Malkhut should be a reservoir a great sea filled with the glory and emanations and the power of God for the purposes of forming a visible world, for the purposes of pouring in to the visible world, everything that the world and its inhabitants could need to exist and to prosper, and to do well. Therefore the light that poured into the Sefirot started with Keter, it went from Keter to Chokhmah, from Chokhmah to Binah, no, each Sefirot was not taking what it needed and passing the remainder on, no, Christ centered Kabbalah says that before the light was poured in, each vessel already had something of its own because the vessel was made of light. So there was already some substance in each of the vessels, see.
And the light that was poured in that was designed to be passed on, was designed in such a manner that the abundance, the greater aspect of it should wind up in Malkhut, that the light should pour in to Keter, and then Chokhmah and then Binah and the Chesed, and then Gevurah all the way down, and it should keep on pouring through until Malkhut was filled up with the glory of God. See, let me say this again, and maybe this was just the way I understood it, maybe I misunderstood Lurianic Kabbalah, but this is what I thought when I studied it, that there was a measure of light coming down. Each Sefirot would take what it needed and by the time it got to Malkhut there wouldn't be much left, but the Sefirot couldn't pass it on so they exploded, maybe I misunderstood Lurianic Kabbalah, that's a possibility, I'm student teacher, I keep telling you that. What the Lord is telling me now is that the truth, okay that the Lord tells us that the truth is that the light of the Ayn Sof was pouring into Adam Kadmon, it was pouring through the Sefirot in an unending flow to be collected as a reservoir in Malkhut. Now I'm trying, I'm doing the best that I can and I believe I'm succeeding to be very honest and tell you that I'm a new student of Kabbalah, what gives me the authority to teach is the spirit of the Lord Jesus Christ that's upon me that is showing me what he wants me to impart to you, even though I am a new student of Kabbalah itself, and my foundation is the doctrine of Christ. But this is how I see it, and what's happening here right now, is that I've just, a revelation has just dumped on me, okay, that's what's happening right here, so I'm going to try and deal with it.
It was my understanding from studying Lurianic Kabbalah that there was just a measure of light that each Sefirah was to take its measure, and pass the rest on until Malkhut just got her portion, okay, and then for a moment there I said oh maybe I had it wrong, you see, the Lord just told me no that's not true, the truth is the abundance and the greatness and the heaviness of the energy was suppose to fall down to the bottom to fill Malkhut's reservoir, and I said oh, maybe I misunderstood the Lurianic Kabbalah, you know, but now the Lord's saying to me, no I don't think I misunderstood the Lurianic Kabbalah, because if the Lurianic Kabbalah believed that the abundance, that the mass of the energy which could be likened to water was intended to fall into the reservoir of Malkhut, what would be the problem with the vessels, why would Malkhut have shattered? If all of the vessels shattered, if Da'at shattered, Chesed, Gevurah, Tiferet, Netzach, Hod, and Yesod all shattered, but Malkhut was prepared to be the reservoir, well then the waters would have still gotten the glory of God, the fullness of the power of energy that was to fill the reservoir would have gotten to Malkhut whether the vessels above her shattered or whether they passed the energy on, what difference does it make once this abundance of energy fell into Malkhut? What difference does it make whether Malkhut got it because the vessels above shattered or because they willingly passed it on. And Lurianic Kabbalah says that Malkhut shattered also, so that means Malkhut wasn't prepared to hold on to the energy either.
Is everybody following me? Okay, so I'm going to stay with my understanding right now that according to Lurianic Kabbalah the energy was coming down, the full amount, each Sefirot was to take its share and to pass the remaining energy down so that by the time we got to Malkhut, there would be very little energy left. And that the reason that the vessels shattered is that they held more than their share and they couldn't pass the rest on. Christ centered Kabbalah says no, that's not what happened, the Sefirot passed on everything they were suppose to pass on and Malkhut received the abundance, a whole sea of the riches and the glory of God containing everything and more then enough to bring forth a glorious world in the image of the Ayn Sof with every creature having its needs fully met, completely and 100% satisfied.
So what happened, looking at drawing 1b, all the energy came down to Malkhut just as planned, what happened? Malkhut now contained more energy then each of the individual Sefirah had, above her had, and she was instructed to build a visible world with it, but according to what the Lord has told me, according to Christ centered Kabbalah, Malkhut was not satisfied with her role, you see, Malkhut is the female, she was to use all this energy to produce an offspring, to be a mother. All of the Sefirot above her were male passing their seed on to the Malkhut which was to take all of their seed and produce offspring and care for the offspring. Malkhut too wanted to be male, she wanted to pass on her seed. Now we have to ask ourselves where this thinking which is called sin came from? Malkhut is called the earth, sin or the potential to sin was present in the creation. The potential to sin was present in the creation.
As the light of God descended, see I explained this a long time ago, let me do it again for you, everything that exists or that we could possibly imagine that exists is in the Ayn Sof in the highest beyond highest place, in the unknowable place. Everything that exist in this world and in these worlds or these universes is in the Ayn Sof, why do I say that? Because everything that exists came out of the Ayn Sof, so how could there be sin and evil in the Ayn Sof, the answer is that in the Ayn Sof all of these potentials or all of these attributes are so completely woven together, they're so completely homogenized, they have so completely lost their individual attributes and have become a part of the whole that they are harmless in that infinite place where the Ayn Sof is. Does anybody not understand what I said? But this light, this simple light of the Ayn Sof, it's a simple light, the light's the same wherever it goes, it's homogenized, it's blended, it's one, you cannot see any attributes in this light, it's not even, I don't even know if it's called light where the Ayn Sof is, maybe it is.
But this light, the simple light of the Ayn Sof had to descend, you see all the way up where the Ayn Sof is, the light is too rare, it's too fine to form into anything visible. So to take this essence of the Ayn Sof and make it into something visible, the light had to descend, and as the light descended, it's homogenized, it's homogenous condition, it's blended condition started to unravel, and the many aspects that were blended together, like the batter of a cake where you can no longer see the butter or the flour, can you differentiate between the vanilla and the sugar, and the butter in a cake batter? No. And unraveling that mixture in the natural is impossible, but in the spirit the homogenous blend of all these attributes to the point that there are no attributes in the Ayn Sof, these attributes started to unravel, and this is how evil and darkness came into existence. It always was, evil always was, darkness always was, but in a different harmless form. See there is a difference between evil and evil deeds. Evil was a part or is a part of the Ayn Sof an unrecognizable part of the Ayn Sof in the highest, but evil deeds are not a part of the Ayn Sof.
See it's just like saying electric power can kill you if you stick your finger in the Socket, you'll get electrocuted and you'll die, but that's not the purpose of the electric power. The purpose of the electric power is to bless humanity, yet misused electric power will kill you, mame you, fry you, burn your hand off. Evil is a part of the creation but evil deeds are not. Evil will always be a part of the creation, evil deeds will not always be a part of the creation.
So we see that the evil that is homogenized into the Ayn Sof at the highest plane, descended unraveled from the whole and the Sefirot that were assigned to contain and control or to balance out the evil failed to do the job, because evil God did ordain evil as a part of the creation, but God never ordained evil deeds as a part of the creation, God never ordained evil deeds as a part of the creation. God never ordained evil to be activated to be directed, it was never intended for electricity to be used as a cattle prod to torture people, as it's being done in some countries today. So the forces the Sefirot who were suppose to have balanced out the evil and keep it harnessed so that it would do good in the creation failed to control the evil and it got loose, and today it has a name, it's called Satan, but she will not always be loosed, she must be harnessed by Christ Jesus and forced to serve humanity. This is the bull that we see in the four faces of Ezekiel's glorified man, not a bull but an ox, an ox is a castrated bull, Satan is the bull. We see the ox in the four faced man. Satan is a part of the glorified man, Satan is a part of the completed man that is become sinless as Jesus demonstrated in the days of his flesh. She has to be forced to work for us, not against us. And Satan is the unconscious part of the carnal mind. We, Christ in us must tame Satan the wild raging bull in each of us. You must betray your carnal mind, and the more narcissistic you are, and I'm never attacking you, the truth will set you free, the more narcissistic you are, the more you love yourself in an unGodly manner, the less likely you are to reign in Satan in your own mind. And the sooner you face this truth about yourself, the sooner Satan's yoke on you will be broken. Because if you are not fighting against Satan in your own carnal mind, you are completely captured by her, and you are her servant. I don't care if you're in church everyday, I don't care if you're reading your Bible everyday, I don't care what kind of good works you are doing, if you have come this far, as to be listening to this message, and you are not fighting Satan in your mind, she owns you. And that's the truth.
So back to the board, we're talking about the fall, it started in the world of points with the shattering of the vessels. So what happened? Malkhut didn't want to be the reservoir, she didn't want to be raising all the kids, she wanted to be the male, she wanted to pass the seed on. So this evil potential that is present in the very energy that is imparted for the purpose of giving life got out of control. So where did Adam come in here, where is Adam's failure. Ze'ir Anpin is Tiferet, Tiferet of the world of points is Ze'ir Anpin or for our purposes of this discussion we'll call Adam, he's the higher Adam, and Yesod is the male organ of Ze'ir Anpin who is the man. Malkhut is the woman, the man is the head of the woman. How did this happen that Malkhut managed to take all the power she was given and turn it on Yesod and kill him and all of the seven Sefirot above her. How come Ze'ir Anpin didn't stop her? The only answer that I have so far and I prayed about this for a couple of hours last night is that there was some, there was a filter effect, that Ze'ir Anpin was suppose to have a filter effect on Malkhut, filtering effect, Yesod in particular was suppose to be controlling how much energy was passed on to her, and when you have a filter the energy passes through and then the gates close, there's not suppose to be any room for a return, but somehow there was a relationship between Yesod and Malkhut, I don't have the exact answer.
Okay these were the notes that I wrote when the Lord was speaking to me. Yesod of Ze'ir Anpin was warned not to give Malkhut everything at once. Remember what Jesus said about pouring new wine into old vessels and they'll break? Yesod was, had the same function as Keter, he was to filter the energy, he was to control, to quantify the energy that was given to Malkhut. Yesod of Ze'ir Anpin everything at once, but Malkhut being empty pressured Yesod for all. Now remember Yesod had the all, Yesod contained everything from the higher Sefirot, and Yesod, which is Ze'ir Anpin gave into Malkhut's demands.
Now I don't know about you but I'm still not satisfied with that, I do trust however that in it's proper place and in due season, the Lord will give us a further understanding of why Yesod emptied himself out completely in to Malkhut and she turned around and killed him.
Now of course this is the story of Samson and Delilah, this is an aspect of fallen human nature, and there's a real possibility, I'm telling you openly right now, that, that's the answer that came to me today, but this would not be the first time that a revelation that I have, that I find out later on, came from my carnal mind. Because as I stand here talking to you, I realize that this explanation that I'm giving you is the manifestation of a fallen mind. This is what happens between men and women all the time, it's in the Bible in the form of Samson and Delilah, some of the greatest men are brought down by a woman that they have emotions for, that they have feelings for, they go to bed with her and they just tell her everything, and she kills them. This is classic human nature is it not. Everybody must have heard a story about this, some story about this.
So maybe the answer that I have has just come forth from my carnal mind, just like the doctrine of Isaac Luria came forth from his carnal mind, and I'm telling you that openly, that I'm looking forward in the near future to hearing what the mind of Christ has to say about this, and it wouldn't surprise me at all, if he's going to tell me that what I have written down on this paper did not come from him, it came from my carnal mind, why? Because what I'm telling you is a manifestation of a fallen mind, and Yesod was not yet fallen. Yesod was not yet fallen, so there has to be another answer, I don't have the answer yet, but I know that what Isaac Luria says is not what happened. I do know that Malkhut rebelled, she refused to be the mother of the creation, she wanted to be the father of the creation, you see. She turned around and attacked Yesod, I don't believe she intended to kill him, she wanted what he had. She shot her energy forward, she shot her energy upwards instead of downwards, she reversed the blood flow of the creation, and she killed all of the Sefirot above her, they all fell down, from Da'at downward, the vessels all fell down, the light didn't fall down, the light descended a little but didn't fall all the way down, the vessels fell all the way down, so what we have today is a world of vessels, humanity consists of empty vessels, empty vessels that's what humanity is, that's why we're so needy, we need everything from the outside, even those of us who have Christ being formed in them, if you really want, if you're willing to face the harsh reality of how little progress we've made, even though we may be doing great compared to where we were twenty years ago, in comparison to Christ, to the Lord Jesus, if you really are willing to face the truth about yourself, and I'm willing to do that, I have made very little progress. I've made a tremendous progress from where I was, when I was dying, when the Lord found me, but compare to where Jesus was in the days of his flesh, I still need everything from outside of me. I have an intense relationship with the Lord, he feeds me this incredible doctrine and gives me the honor of teaching it, but after that, I still need food from the outside of me.
Although he tells me that he's bringing me back into supernatural healing, I haven't been to a doctor for a while, and I hope that I never have to go again. There was a time in my life that I had supernatural healing for every problem that I had, and that anointing lifted, it was a collective anointing over a particular fellowship that I belonged to, and the Lord lifted it off. So I hope I never have to go again, but I'm not completely convinced of it at this time, we'll see. I need food from the outside, I need clothing from the outside, I need a certain amount of fellowship from the outside. I still operate in money, I need money from the outside, my needs are not supernaturally met, my needs are met through natural sources, people giving donations to this ministry, natural sources. Everything I get comes through a natural source, the supernatural aspects of my life are doctrine and the people that the Lord will bring me in contact with to help people, that's very minor, very little progress.
I still have to drive in a car, I don't travel in the spirit, I'm human just like everybody else, except that I have this doctrine and I have wisdom of God helping to know how to get by in this world. But aside from that, and I'm not diminishing that, but I'm trying to tell you that I'm just as carnal as the rest of the world. I need to eat, I have to go shopping in the supermarket, I have to cook, I have to clean up, if there weren't people here who take my garbage out, I'd have to take my garbage out, I have to wash dishes, I have to wash my clothes, I'm as carnal as the rest of the world. So how far have I come? Not very far. Praise the Lord.
So all of this exhortation has come forth because of the first sentence of lesson 8, which says, So the primordial kings have fallen. Now the Rabbi that's teaching our online course, is going to continue along the path of the teaching of Isaac Luria and we will disagree with him through his whole treatise, that's why it is very important that we understand the difference between what Isaac Luria says and what the doctrine of Christ says. In a nut shell the doctrine of Christ says the shattering of the vessels and the fall of the primordial kings occurred because of sin, Malkhut killed them.
Isaac Luria says no, there was no sin, it was all God's fault, see he poured out this big measure of light and the Sefirot couldn't contain it, they were too rigid to contain it, so they all broke and God planned it that way. God planned it that way because you need death for life to come out of it. I have a real problem believing that. I know in this fallen world life comes out of death, you have to put dead mulch into the ground to grow living plants, but this world is fallen. I don't think that you need death for life to come out of it, in the places where there's no fall. It's the same old story that we were taught in the doctrine of Christ, before the fall, all the Sefirot and Adam all of the beings that were to come forth had the promise of complete perfection through union with the higher realms, I don't know which words to use, through union with Binah, which is ultimate union with Keter and the Ayn Sof, fusion with the Ayn Sof. Life is fusion with the Ayn Sof, but we have no way to reach the Ayn Sof, so we need a mediator, and that's who Christ Jesus is, he's connecting us back to the Ayn Sof, the unending infinite source of life and all blessings. Now it's true that we have to die to attain to this, we have to die to our carnal mind to return to life. But once the creation is returned to life, I do not believe that you have to die to find life, and I don't believe that, that was the case at the beginning, God did not plan it that way, I refute this doctrine, I refute this Kabbalah, I refute this lie that's in the church.
It's a lie because if you believe that you have to believe that God created all the suffering in the world today, that he is responsible for this, that he ordained it, every evil in this world, that he ordained rape, and incest and torture, and all forms of perversion and torment to perfect us, and I do not believe that, I rebuke that. He did not give us that for man to overcome. It is true that in our fallen condition, we can be instructed but we can really only develop through our own overcoming experiences but that was not true before the fall. In this world we cannot acquire wisdom or understanding through the laying on of hands, but in the higher planes before the fall we could acquire understanding and wisdom through union with the Ayn Sof. Praise the Lord.
I'll just read you what's on the board here, the light of Adam Kadmon's eyes forms the world of points and I've drawn that in red, the ears of Adam Kadmon are called SaG, AB, is in his mind AB, never comes out, it's hidden, the world of bound lights is in Adam Kadmon's mouth, the world of points begins at Adam Kadmon's navel which is the lower third of the Tiferet of Adam Kadmon's mouth, and over here on the left, this is Christ centered Kabbalah which differs in doctrine from Lurianic Kabbalah, which says that the lower Sefirot of the world of points emerged in a straight line, which is the reason for the shattering of the vessels, and their premature descent into the world of action. So I've given you an overview of the two conflicting doctrines, Christ centered Kabbalah and Isaac Luria concerning the shattering of the vessels of the world of points. In case I didn't make it clear, the primordial kings are the Sefirot from well Da'at is not a Sefirah, Da'at is what they call a quasi-Sefirah, it acts like a Sefirah, but it's not a Sefirah, from Chesed all the way down through Malkhut, plus Da'at are the eight Sefirot that fell down and appeared in the world of action, as the primordial kings, they're listed in the book of Genesis as the Dukes of Edom. Any questions or comments on this?
Just as an aside for your interest the Lord did show me that this concept of Samson standing between the two pillars to bring down the temple, the pagan temple, okay, Samson was the middle column, and he was and he collapsed the left and the right column, because the left and the right column are suppose to, to be balanced in the form of the center column. So he destroyed the left, cause the left and the right are extreme columns, when he brought them down, he destroyed them, and he was all that was left the balance of the two, the victory of God, the Lord did show me that, isn't that interesting. I will say a little bit more, I won't go to a second tape tonight, still on chapter one of lesson 8, the primordial kings have fallen, we just discussed that, chaos reigns. Chaos is disorder, that means the order of the Sefirot the three columns was destroyed, Malkhut killed Da'at through Yesod, and actually her own vessel also, see that's what I had on the board before, and I erased it because I put it up prematurely. All of the vessels fell down according to Lurianic Kabbalah, they fell down into the world of Beriah, which is the world of creation, but the word of the Lord to me is that the fallen Sefirot they went down two worlds, they went down into the world of formation which is Yetzirah, the world of creation became a wilderness. When Jesus says I went to prepare a place for you, he meant that he went to prepare the world of creation to be inhabited again. Because the world of creation is male, that's Beriah, that's a male world, and the world of formation is a female world. So the vessels that broke fell down into the female world, Yetzirah, which is known to us as the astral plane, and that's where all the evil entities are. All the evil is in the astral plane.
But the light didn't fall down that far, Malkhut overturned Yesod, did you take a picture yet? You did, Malkhut overturned Yesod and put him under her, and this is the definition of the Serpent, it's the reversal of the married couple. Malkhut acquired all of the energy of the vessels that had been contained and the vessels that fell, and she put Yesod the reproductive gland the seed under her authority, and this is the definition of the Serpent. She appeared in the world of formation, from which place she gave birth to all forms of evil entities, and to a full set of Sefirot that Kabbalah calls the other side. There's a Binah on the other side and a Keter on the other side, and Chokhmah on the other side, and we know that the names of these entities are the Serpent and Leviathan and Satan and Cain and everything that we talk about in the doctrine of Christ. Kabbalah would merely say Binah of the other side, Ze'ir Anpin of the other side. We know that Ze'ir Anpin of the other side is Leviathan, that Binah of the other side is Satan. When our notes say chaos reigns, that means the order of the three columns of the Sefirot are collapsed. Vessels fell down, and Malkhut in her new configuration is the Serpent reigned in Yetzirah according to Christ centered Kabbalah. And we also know since we're reviewing, as has come forth in other messages that when the Serpent acquired Yesod and his seed, she immediately went into the inner world of points which is Adam Kadmon's ovary, and fertilized the seed of Adam Kadmon's ovary and that seed with the Serpent's fertilization differentiated into many seeds. So in the world of formation we see Malkhut, the queen, actually she killed Yesod but she possesses his seed, And she has his energy and she's ruling in the world of Yetzirah over the offspring of Adam Kadmon's ovary. Every evil work has come forth in the world of Yetzirah, and she is in control of the incarnation of the human race as it appears down here in the world of action. We see this truth in nations all over the world and in the form of the widowed mother and the child, and if you just follow along in history, you will see that the story is that the reason the mother is widowed is that she has killed her own husband, and that the child is suppose to be the incarnation of the dead father, which is a spiritual truth. We see this knowledge through nations all across the world. Praise the Lord.
Death has been created in order for resurrection to exist. I cannot and I do not accept that, that death was created by God for the purpose of resurrection, I refuse that. And then he says for all life comes out of death, no all life comes out of the Ayn Sof, what are you talking about? What are you talking about all life comes out of death? In the fallen man all life comes out of death. All life comes from the Ayn Sof. Now we know that Christ is being born again in us, and Christ is Abel, Abel is being born again in us, he's not being born again out of death, Abel is being born again because the living Christ is grafted to him. Praise the Lord.
Then he says yet not all life must lead to death, well I'm glad to hear that. This is the true order of things prior to our discussion of the rectification of the primordial kings, that means the restoration of the primordial kings, we must first discuss more about the purpose of the their fall. Now according to Kabbalah, seven of the eight fallen kings died, only one remains in the earth. I think his name is Hadar, I don't know how to relate it exactly but at this point the doctrine of Christ would say that the fallen kings, those which are rectified or the sparks that are being rectified in all of us, every mortal man, as Abel and Cain as his mortal foundation. Another thing that I didn't tell you is that the Lord did reveal to us that these fallen kings in the spiritual plane became the immortals. These fallen Sefirot, they became the immortals, the evil immortals that exist in the astral plane, they're not demons, they're not demons, demons are the product of the fallen mind of man. These immortals are very high spiritual beings, they're evil angels, they were Sefirot in the highest planes and they fell down, because Malkhut killed them, and they became evil, upon separation from the life of God, they became evil. We have a Scripture in the King James that talks about the sons of God singing in the morning. If you look up those Hebrew words, you'll see that, that verse can be translated the day that the sons of God became evil. The Lord gave me that translation many years ago, the day that the sons of God became evil.
Okay let's see what else we have here for tonight. Prior to our discussion of the rectification of the primordial kings, we must first discuss more about the purpose of their fall. As we discussed in our previous lecture upon the shattering of the vessels of the primordial kings, their lights ascended above, but the broken vessel fell into what would be the realm of Beriah. And from here he really goes into detail, telling you where each Sefirot fell and what happened to the light of each Sefirot, and I worked this up, I have my notes on it, but I can't see any benefit in putting it on the board for you, I think it's just going to be very confusing, therefore, I will share with you his conclusions. He says the lights of the fallen vessels eventually ascended above back to the place from which they emanated, the last place they were prior to the shattering, and this was inside of the Sefirah of Binah, which also called, Imma, the supernal mother. Does everybody understand that, that the lower Sefirot from Chesed through Malkhut are the offspring of Abba and Imma, Abba the supernal father, Imma the supernal mother, and the Sefirot Chesed through Malkhut of their metaphorical children, that means metaphorical means that they're not children as we would know children, that this is just an example, a parable that we're being so that we can possibly understand some spiritual things. The lights of the lower seven are Imma's metaphorical children and they symbolically returned inside of her womb, the light went back up to the mother and the vessels fell down. He says however the ascent of the lights into Binah did not happen all at once, because prior to the ascent the lights first descended. When its vessel broke, each light descended to a different place. I really can't go on because it's a whole new topic and we're almost finished with this tape, so I'm going to end for tonight, are there any questions or comments on this message. Well we finally made it to lesson 8, it took us, we were stuck on lesson 7 for months and months and months, because the Lord was bringing me to a place where he could bring forth this revelation in me, the truth about the world of bound lights and the world of points, and the shattering of the vessels. So every time I picked up lesson 7, I just couldn't go on. We'll see, we'll go on with lesson 8 and we'll see what the Lord has for us. Okay if there are no questions or comments, we'll say goodnight and Lord willing we'll pick up with this teaching on Thursday. God bless you all.
