            Praise the Lord, we are picking up today in section two of chapter one, and that is page two of your notes, of section two chapter one of the Gates of Reincarnation. This message today is going to be more difficult than parts one and two, we are getting more technical, you will have to draw upon the knowledge some of the knowledge that you acquired in our study of the Tree of Life, to follow through, but the basic principles that are coming forth here are very interesting and I find them very enlightening, among other things, I see an explanation of why some people soar ahead in their spiritual studies and other people have much more difficulty and other people just cannot get ahead at all.

 

            Apparently, everyone that incarnates, incarnates at a particular level, and aside from the power of Jesus Christ, you are pretty much trapped in that level, it is sort of the account of the beggar the rich man, when the rich man said, well actually it was the poor man said to the rich man, there is a great gulf between us now and you cannot, well the whole church says, well the gulf that cannot be spanned is that the poor man believes in Jesus Christ and the rich man does not, but it is much involved than that, and I have, if you just stop and think about it, I have preached over the years in the doctrine of Christ that each human being is a timeline and that there are many time lines in this physical world, that you could be standing next to a person who exists in a completely different time line, because timelines are manifestations of mind.

 

            Even though we are all occupying the same planet and people all look alike, they have two legs, to arms, to eyes, to ears, depending upon where the person's mind is, different groups of people are in, they for all intents and purposes may be in different planets, that is why some people, you give them an opportunity and they get ahead, not only spiritual studies, in the world.

 

            Some people you just give them the opportunity to learn something and they go ahead and they become successful and they become millionaires, other people you give them opportunity after opportunity and they cannot get ahead. Well, when we were in deliverance, you know we would say,"Well, that is because they have a curse on their life." Well, it is true that there is a curse on their life, but we are looking at it today, looking at that curse in a much higher dimension, how is the curse manifesting? Well, when you incarnated, you incarnated in to a particular spiritual location. I am not talking about the physical country that you are living in, but you incarnate into a particular spiritual location, and you are trapped there. Now, I believe in Christ, we can move out of the position that we incarnate in, but for most people you have to die and incarnate in the next level.  The walls are so high that you just cannot get out, you cannot ascend.

 

            I have ascended, I have gone through several levels so far in this lifetime, but some people they just cannot, they are just stuck, they just cannot budge. Well, it is a curse yes, what form is the curse taking? The curse is the position that you incarnated in, you are in sand up to your neck, and you cannot move, but if you could just hear the voice of the son of God, he will help you to get out, but it is just the truth that the people who incarnate in this difficult place, it is going to be much harder for you than for somebody who incarnated into a freer place.  The Lord is no respecter of persons, but we have been preaching here for years that everybody does not come into the world with an equal inheritance, the people are not equal. Jesus is equal, the opportunity that Jesus gives everybody is equal, but the people are not equal.  One person might have to fight a great deal harder than another person to achieve the same end. It depends on where you start from.

 

            Let us go on and try to understand this a little more because it is really, this teaching is just really blessing me, and I believe that with all of the possibilities of subjects that we could be studying in Kabbalah, the very fact that the Lord led me to this web site where Gate of Reincarnations is being translated and that he told me to start teaching it, is in direct response to my cry to understand some of the difficulties of my life, and this message is really helping me. I just need understanding, if I could just understand what I am going through, and what it is all about, and what my future is, it makes it very tolerable for me.  I do hope that this teaching is as great a blessing to you.  It is always a good thing to understand what position you are in spiritually, what position you are in, and what your possibilities are, and what you have to do to move on.

 

            Let us take a look at this.  Well let me just say one more thing, you know for years I would... that Scripture just mystified me where Jesus was walking and he met the first two men that he called his disciples, and they looked at him and they said, "Where do you dwell Rabbi?"  He said, "Come and see."  The two potential disciples went and spent some time or I think they spent the night with him, I am not exactly sure what the Scripture says, and they left Jesus' presence, telling everybody we have found the Messiah, and I used to say in my carnality, I used to say, "Well, they slept over at Jesus' house, how do they know that he is Messiah?" These two Hebrew men were spiritual enough to try the spirit on this man Jesus, they had listened to what he had to say, and they were able to perceive that his spirit or his soul if you want to say came out of this very high place, which identified him as Messiah. Jesus had a physical body just like any other man, he looked just like every other man. If you did not have spiritual eyes, you could not tell that he was different than any other man. The sign was what the man had to say, because what we say reveals the spiritual place where we dwell.

 

            Whatever Jesus said to them, I do not know what he said to them, whatever he said to them, it convinced these two young Hebrew men that he was Messiah. Now remember, in those days, most of you know Hebrew men were educated, from three years old they went to Yeshiva, I do not know why Peter was not educated, he was a fisherman, I really do not know how it worked there, but my understanding is all Hebrew boys had to go to school, from three years old they have to prepare to be Bar Mitzvahed, so these two disciples, they knew what they were looking for in Messiah, that Jesus was this, because of his mind, they judged his mind, that was where he was, that he dwelled in this high place, even higher than Moses. Praise the Lord.

 

            Let us follow along with our notes. However, even this Nefesh has many levels, now we are talking about the five levels of soul, which just for review are, the lowest one is Nefesh, then comes the Ruach, then comes the Neshamah, which is the mind of God. Well let me start again, the Nefesh is the personality of the flesh, it is the personality and attributes that flow in the blood that is in the veins of this physical body, the Ruach is the spiritual personality, the Nefesh is the animal personality, the Ruach is the spiritual personality, the Nefesh is the mind of God that is added to you. The Chayyah, I do not really have a clear understanding of what that Chayyah is, I believe it has to do with a higher morality. Somebody just told me that I said Nefesh instead of Neshamah, so I will start over again.

 

The Nefesh is the animal soul, or the animal personality that flows in the red blood of the veins of this physical body. The Ruach is the spiritual personality, which is the beginning of our ability to relate to God, then comes the Neshamah which is the mind of God, which is added to us.

 

            The Chayyah has to do with a higher level of morality. I think what came forth in the previous message was political conscience, a higher level of morality.  Finally, Yechida which means oneness and that is a place of closeness to God, those are the five levels of soul.  Every man is born with a Nefesh, and some human beings never go any higher or never acquire any aspects of soul other than Nefesh.  This is what we are reading about in our notes now. However, even this Nefesh is personality or soul that flows in the blood of the physical body, has many levels, and this is because Asiyah itself divides into five Partzufim.  Asiyah is the name of one of the five worlds.  Can anybody tell us the names of the five worlds? Anybody want to try that?

 

            COMMENT: Asiyah, Yetzirah, Beriah, and Atzilut.

 

            PASTOR VITALE: You left one, you left one out did you not? You said, Asiyah, Yetzirah, Beriah.  Well, that is pretty good, there is one more, what is the last one?

 

            COMMENT: Atzilut?

 

            PASTOR VITALE: Well, Atzilut is the highest for us, but beyond that is the world of Adam Kadmon. That is the five worlds.  Asiyah is the world of action, it is this present world, Yetzirah can be likened to the astral plane, it supposedly looks just like this except that it is not solid. Beriah is the world of creation, and above that is the world of Atzilut, which is the world of emanation, which is the body of Adam Kadmon, the world of emanation is the body of Adam Kadmon, and of course Adam Kadmon is the creator. Also this chapter talks about the Partzufim. Now we really, I have spoken to you somewhat about the Partzufim in our studies of Tree of Life, but we never really did get into a deep study of them.

 

            However, I have on the board drawing number one, just to remind you that the Partzufim first of all means personality and each Partzufim or the actual concept of Partzufim is a grouping of Sefirot to represent a personality for the specific purpose of the Sefirot interacting with one another. That is the ultimate goal that the Sefirot should be able to interact with one another to produce the nature of God. I have on the board the ten Sefirot, and we see that the Partzuf associated with the Keter is called Arik Anpin. In other words, well let me go down this line for us. The Partzuf associated with Chokhmah is Abba, the Partzuf associated with Binah is Imma, and Abba and Imma are the Hebrew words for father and mother. Then we have six limbs what is called the six limbs, the six limbs of Ze'ir Anpin or the son, the Sefirot, Chesed, Gevurah, Tiferet, Netzach, Hod, and Yesod, all comprise Ze'ir Anpin which is the son of Abba and Imma. Then we have Malkhut, the tenth Sefirot and the Partzuf associated with Malkhut is Nukvah. Nukvah is the daughter of Abba and Imma.

 

            In other words, if the Keter wanted to interact with the Binah for example, in that function of interacting with another Sefirot, they take on the personality of the Partzufim.  If the Keter wanted to interact with Binah, Keter would approach Binah as Arik Anpin. If Binah wanted to speak to her son Ze'ir Anpin, or if Binah wanted to speak to her son, which is the six limbs below her, she would take on a garment or a covering or a personality of mother, and speak to the six together as her son Ze'ir Anpin.  Another way to put it is if there was a natural family, let us say I had a natural family, let us say I had ten children, I am a preacher, I work full time, I have a ministry, but I am also a mother, and I wanted to approach my family, I had something to say to my family.

 

            I would not approach my family as a preacher or a teacher, I would approach my family as mother, I would say, I am your mother, and I would like to talk to you. You who are a doctor, please come to my house, I want to talk to you, this son, you are a lawyer, come to my house, that son, you are a school teacher, come to my house, all of these men and women who would have lives and wives and careers of their own. I would approach them as mother and say, as my son please come to my house, I want to talk to you.  This is the concept of the partzufim, it is the garment or the face that is either a single or a group of Sefirot take on for the purpose of communicating with other Sefirot.  I think that is the best explanation of the Partzufim I have given you to date, because as you know, I am studying and learning as I go along myself. Are there any questions on the Sefirot?  I know at one point, somebody was asking me the difference between Malkhut and Nukvah, and I really did not know the answer. Today I have just given you the answer.

 

            Malkhut is one of the ten Sefirot, but if Malkhut wants to have a relationship with Yesod, she takes on the garment of Nukvah and she speaks to Ze'ir Anpin, because Yesod is just one aspect of the son, who is her betrothed. Is everybody all right with that? Any questions on that?  Let us go on, however even this Nefesh, that is the lowest world has many levels, and this is because Asiyah itself divides into five Partzufim, and their names are Arik Anpin, Abba, Imma, Ze'ir Anpin and Nukva de'Zer Anpin, in other words the Nukvah of the one that is betrothed to Ze'ir Anpin. The world Partzuf and the plural is Partzufim literally means face. In the Kabbalah it also refers to the entire human shape.  Each Partzufim theoretically has a shape, just like us, it has a human shape, each Partzufim has arms and legs and a head, a nose, mouth, ears, for the purposes of understanding them.

 

            In general, there are ten Sefirot, the Keter, the Chokhmah, the Binah, Chesed, Gevurah, Tiferet, Netzach, Hod, Yesod and Malkhut. However each one is a localized version of the entire system, each Sefirot has within it another ten Sefirot, and each of those ten has within it another ten Sefirot, at infinitum. These Sefirot can be likened to the cells, like we have trillions of cells in the human body, the Sefirot can be likened to spiritual cells. In other words it is possible to discern within each Sefirot, or within each one of the ten Sefirot, I am sorry, I am reading now. In other words it is possible to discern within each one of them, within each Sefirot ten subjective Sefirot, and within each one of those ten others, etc. This may be likened to a photograph taken with a hologram where any detail may be blown up to reveal all the basic information that is contained in the whole photograph. All the basic information of the whole is contained in the detail and the detail contains all the basic information found in the whole. When we see a number of Sefirot joined together working together and functioning together as a system, they are called a Partzuf.  You might say to yourself, well Pastor Vitale, the Keter is only one, that is not a system, Chokhamah, that is only one, Binah and Malkhut, they are only one, that is not a system, what are you talking about?

 

            According to the Kabbalistic teachings there are I believe four Partzuf in each of these, in each of Arik Anpin, Abba and Imma, I am not sure about Nukvah, but there is four each in Keter, in the Keter, in Arik Anpin which is Keter, Abba which is Chokhmah and Imma which is Binah. Now what I am going to do as we approach section eight of this message, I am going to go to another teaching which I am probably going to put under a different name and different number and just reference it in this series, we are going to go into a full study of the Partzufim and I will reveal to you the different Partzufim or the four Partzufim within each of Arik Anpin, Abba, and Imma, and we will go into those details as we approach, just before we start section 8 here. When we finish section 7, because section 8 deals in more depth with the Partzufim, so I want to prepare you for that with this other message, and I do not know what we will call it yet, probably just the Partzuf, the Partzufim.  Is everybody all right? Let us go on with this message today.

 

            Each Partzuf has a unique name, and these correspond to the names of the Sefirot, the names of the soul and the names of the worlds, as discussed previously. Now if you look at drawing number two which is a chart, what we are really being told is that, if you look at the second line for example, Chayyah, Atzilut, Chokhmah, and Abba, they can all be used interchangeably, Chayyah, life force, Atzilut emanation, Chokhmah wisdom, Abba father. All of those names can be used interchangeably, and I know that when I was teaching the Tree Of Life and Kabbalah study, I would go back and forth with these names and I could not explain to you why I use them interchangeably, it was just what was coming out of my mouth, as the Lord moved upon me to teach.  Here we see a witness that all of these names can be used interchangeably.  What this chart is showing us is the name of the world, which is, let us take the top row, well I am taking the second row down because on the top row, one square is not filled in, let us start with the Chayyah.

 

            The Chayyah is the level of soul, and we are told the English of Chayyah is life force. We are told that the Chayyah is the life force of the levels of soul below it, that is the Neshamah, the Ruach, and the Nefesh. The Chayyah is associated with the world called Atzilut, and the English of Atzilut is emanation, the world of emanation. Now both the Chayyah the life force and Atzilut the world of emanation are associated with and actually on the same level with Chokhamah, which is wisdom, and all of the previous three, the Chayyah, the life force, Atzilut, the world of emanation, the Chokhmah which is wisdom, they are all associated with and are actually the same as the Partzuf called Abba, the English of which is father. Is anybody having a problem with this? No.

 

            The Neshamah is a level of soul which in English means breath, although we teach here that it is the mind of God, the Kabbalists call it the breath of God, I call it, the doctrine of Christ calls it the mind of God, or Christ centered Kabbalah calls it the mind of God that is associated with the world of Beriah, which is creation, and both the Neshamah, Neshamah the breath, and Beriah the world of creation are associated with Binah, the Sefirah Binah, which means understanding, and all three of the Neshamah which means breath, the world of Beriah which is the world of creation and Binah which means understanding, they are all associated with and are actually the same thing as the Partzuf called Imma, the English of which is mother. Then we have the Ruach which is a level of soul, the English of which means wind, and the Ruach is associated with the world called Yetzirah, the English of which is formation. Then we have the Ruach which is wind, that is associated with Yetzirah which is the world of formation is on the same level with and actually is the same thing as the six Sefirot of Chesed through Yesod, which are associated with the Partzuf called Ze'ir Anpin.

 

            The English for Ze'ir Anpin is, the short face, and the significance of the short face is that, Ze'ir Anpin is short on mercy, judgement falls much more swiftly from the short face than from the long face, and the long face of course is Arik Anpin, for some reason I did not read the top line of this chart to you, so let me jump up there now. The level of soul called Yechida which means singular has according to this chart has no world associated with it, but we have been taught that Yechida is associated with the world of Adam Kadmon.  Try to understand that there are different Kabbalistic schools that they all basically teach the same thing, most of the time, not all of the time, but they may have different variations in their teachings, the book of the Tree of Life which we studied from, names a fifth world, and that world is named Adam Kadmon. The man who is translating this work is a chasid and perhaps they do not believe in naming the world of Adam Kadmon. I do not know why he has it blank here.  The Yechida which is singular is on the same plane as the fifth world which is called Adam Kadmon, and both the Yechida and Adam Kadmon are on the same level, and actually the same as the Sefirot called the Keter, which means crownlets.  The reason Keter, the reason that level is called Keter crownlets is because it is the highest Sefirot and it crowns, it is on top of all of the rest.

 

            The Partzuf that is associated with Yechida, the level of soul which is singular and the Sefirot called Keter which is crownlets, then in of the Partzuf is Arik Anpin which is called the long face, and the long face means there is great mercy coming from this high level, great long suffering mercy, much more so than the mercy that comes from Ze'ir Anpin. Now we know today that the glorified Jesus Christ is manifesting Arik Anpin to the world, the whole world is forgiven, and Ze'ir Anpin who also has mercy, but on a much shorter string is the son of the Lord Jesus Christ, Christ Jesus in the individual. Remember all judgment is given over to the son. The corrective judgment that will restore the world to righteousness is not coming from the glorified Jesus Christ. It is coming from Christ Jesus in men. That judgment that is falling is in direct proportion to the level of righteousness that, that individual man has ascended to. Praise the Lord, then the last level, the last row of this chart, we deal with a level of soul called Nefesh which means rested, because that is the lowest level of soul and all the other levels of soul rest in it, that Nefesh is associated with the world called Asiyah, the English of which is action, that is this world. The Sefirot that is associated with the Nefesh and the Asiyah is called Malkhut, the English of which is kingdom, and the reason Malkhut is called the kingdom is because the earth or the land is here in Malkhut. You cannot have a kingdom if you do not have any land. The very word kingdom implies this physical place, or at least this visible place that can be ruled over, a kingdom is something that can be ruled over, you have to be able to see it.  The Partzuf associated with Malkhut is Nukvah de'Zer Anpin, meaning the feminine, and Nukvah is the name of the daughter, this particular writer says Nukvah de'Zer Anpin meaning the Nukvah or the wife of Ze'ir Anpin, which is the son. Everybody all right with that, that should have been a review for you. Oh I see there is more on the next page. Nukvah de'Zer Anpin is the feminine, is the feminine consort of Ze'ir Anpin the short or the near face. Are there any questions on that?  It should be noted that the Sefirot according to the names of the Partzufim resemble a family tree of three generations, grandfather, parent, child and his bride. Before a person can merit to attain his Ruach from the world of Yetzirah, he must first be complete in all of the five Partzufim of the Nefesh of Asiyah.

 

            Now, first of all, let me remind you that we are weaving together this study, the Gate of Reincarnations, with the Christ centered Kabbalah which is based on the doctrine of Christ, the Kabbalistic doctrine of Isaac Luria woven together with the doctrine of Christ is called Christ centered Kabbalah, because we believe that there is great and powerful good and very interesting and valuable information in Isaac Luria's teachings, but that the foundation, his foundational premise is error, we believe that it is error. We believe that it is not possible to be perfected by any physical or even mental works, that perfection can only come to pass through union with the one who is already perfected, and that immortality can only be attained through union with the only one in whom true immortality rests.  When we read here before a person can merit to attain his Ruach, we have to make sure that everyone reading this transcript or listening to this tape understands that we do not agree, that anyone can merit ascension of soul.

 

            The principle here is that every human being is born with a Nefesh, and that the other four levels of soul, or the other three levels of soul, have to be acquired. According to Kabbalistic teaching, you have to merit them, you have to do what is called the Mitzvot, certain actions, the Kabbalistic teaching makes it very clear that you can merit additional aspects of soul by actions, by physical actions, by things that you do, and by studying the Torah, and we do not believe that, that is true, and we certainly claim that this has not happened to the Jew practicing this method, if anything the Jew over the generations certainly over the last two thousand years has, or let me say it this way, the spiritual heights of the Jew over the two thousand years has deteriorated.

 

            Now, there still may be some Jews that have great minds, but they are very few and far between, certainly much less than they were two thousand years ago, and two thousand years ago there were less men with great minds then, for the five hundred years prior to that, because at the time that Jesus was born, a prophet had not appeared in Israel for I believe four hundred, I believe it is four hundred years, at one point I thought it was five hundred years, but today, it seems that it is four hundred years. There was no prophet in Israel.  Ever since the prophets were removed from Israel, the mind of Israel at large, this great mind which is really the additional mind of God that rested in Israel has been deteriorating for at least twenty four hundred or more years, the great mind of God that rested in Israel has been deteriorating, getting less and less and less. Now my understanding of the Kabbalistic response to this would be, well this is because Israel is not doing what they are supposed to be doing, they are not studying the Torah, they are not keeping the Mitzvot, and at some point, and this is my words now, but this is I believe the substance of what Kabbalah is teaching, at some point the period of grace will run out and Messiah will come despite the fact that the men of Israel are not doing what they are supposed to be doing, and Messiah will come with judgment, and millions of people are going to die. Now I do not have any clear word on that from the Lord, but I would hope, I would like to believe that the millions of people that are going to die will be people dying to their carnal mind. I certainly hope that, that will be the case, but whatever must be, let it be, just let Messiah come and let the powers and principalities that wage war continuously in this physical realm, be put under authority that we might acquire the promises of the Scripture, and live in peace and contentment.  We cannot live in peace and contentment unless we are serving God, it is impossible to live in peace and contentment without serving God.

 

            This country and the Christendom in the condition that it is in today, you cannot live in peace and contentment aborting the babies that you have conceived through fornication and adultery, and even if you conceive the children in marriage, you cannot be living an existence murdering babies, looking at pornography, and engaging in all forms of reprobate activity, as well as hating your brother, the hidden sins of the heart. You will never live in peace and contentment as long as you are doing these things, therefore the corrective judgment must come, the national judgment must come, these laws that permit this wicked behavior must be repealed and each individual must have his own self revealed to him, his own wicked self. The Scripture says the heart of man is desperately wicked, that means you, it does not mean your brother, it means you, it means you and it means me, my heart is desperately wicked and so is yours. I do not care if you have been in church every Sunday for your whole life, your heart is desperately wicked, and the issue at hand here is that the Lord Jesus Christ has made a way to give us a new heart, he has made a way to graft righteousness to us.

 

            If you love righteousness, if you hate the idea that your heart is desperately wicked, then you may gravitate into Christ, but you can only do it following his rules. You cannot make up your own rules.  The rules, the way that the Lord Jesus has laid out, is that you must look upon the heart within you that is desperately wicked, you must look upon it, you must see it, you must recognize it, and you must reject it, not in general principle, you must see it operating in you, and say, "No, I resist you." That is the way out, and you cannot change it, neither can you jump from square A to square Z, you must go through, you must look, and I remind you that Moses did not enter into the promised land because he was afraid to look, that is what the Scripture says. Moses, the great Moses was afraid to look.

 

            Each of us, when we have Christ grafted to us, we are greater than Moses, we have the strength to look, you can do it, you can do it, you can do it, in Christ we can do all things, we can look at the wickedness of our heart and we can say as Paul said, it is no longer I but sin that dwelleth in me, but you must look. You will not go forward with denial, you must look, you will not go forward with a general repentance, you will not go forward convincing yourself that what you have is a potential that you have not done this wickedness, you will not go forward, you will not. You must take the path that is laid out for you, you must look, and you must embrace the truth if you want to get to the other side. Praise the Lord, and the other side is immortality in Christ Jesus.

 

            To get on with our study here, before a person can merit to attain his Ruach, what does that mean? The whole principle here of reincarnation as I have mentioned in previous messages, is that reincarnation is a road map for spiritual ascension. Reincarnation is a road map for spiritual ascension. You start out with your Nefesh, you get Lord willing a Ruach added to you, and then you get a Neshamah added to you, then you get a Chayyah added to you, and then you get a Yechida added to you, and you ascend above sin.  Of course, it is not that simple, because we are told that each world is subdivided into five Partzufim and that each Partzuf is divided into another five Partzufim.  This gets very complicated, in other words, to get beyond Nefesh, we must migrate or ascend from the Nefesh of the Nefesh to the Nefesh of the Ruach to the Nefesh of the Neshamah, to the Nefesh of the Chayyah, to the Nefesh of the Yechida, and then you are just up to the Ruach of the Nefesh. I am going to put all this on the board for you, it is much more complicated than it appears to be, but we are going to take a closer look at it. Let me read you this sentence again, before a person can merit to attain his Ruach, we are all born with a Nefesh, and we are all hoping to have a Ruach added to us. Remember the Nefesh is the animal soul.  Every human being has an animal soul.

 

            Brethren we are animals, we are spiritual beings that have been woven together with an animal nature, not only an animal body, but an animal nature. Our foundational spirit, our mortal foundation, that which never dies, that worm that never dieth, that Jesus talks about,  that is woven together with an animal nature as well as an animal body, and most people in this world live out of that animal nature. Very few ascend higher. Now, the way, the description of the ascension, the way it is couched in Kabbalistic terms is your Ruach is added to you. You start out as an animalistic being and your spiritual personality or your spirit soul is added to you. That is what we are saying here. Before a person can merit to attain his Ruach. In other words, if you want to ascend beyond the condition that you were in when you were born, you were born with an animal nature and you want that spiritual nature added to you, in order to merit to attain to it, and of course that Ruach comes from the world of Yetzirah, the Nefesh, the animal nature comes from the world of Asiyah, and the Ruach, the spiritual personality, or the spiritual nature comes from the world of Yetzirah.

 

            If you want to attain to the next world, what is another way to say that, if you want to become spiritual, what you are really saying, or another way to say what you are saying is, you would like your Ruach added to you, or you can say you would like to ascend from Asiyah to Yetzirah.  We have some people here that have been hoping and praying for years to become spiritual, and they have made very little progress. Now we can take a look at this and see exactly what the problem is, and hopefully find a solution to the problem.  I work with a word processing program called Word Perfect, and sometimes I am typing a document, and something is wrong, I cannot get it to change from single to double space or I cannot get it to change from 14 point font to a 12 point font, something is just really wrong, I cannot see what the problem is, and this Word Perfect program has something called reveal codes, you click on it and it opens up a window where you see in the background all of the codes that you, see on your main screen all you see is the typewritten letters, but when the window opens and you see the codes, I can see what the problem is.

 

            Oh, that is why it will not, I cannot get the document from double space to single space, because there is a code in there that is blocking it. This code that was invisible when I was just looking at the typewritten script, I had to open this window and see the codes or have the codes in the background revealed to me, and then I could see what the problem is. Sometimes we have a physical problem, the doctor does not know what is wrong until he opens you up, he has to open you up and take a look at what is going on inside of you.

 

            Well if you have been doing everything that you could do for years and you are still carnal, there has to be something operating behind the scenes in you that is stopping you from going forward. This teaching I believe is designed to reveal what that is, and once we can see exactly what the problem is, I believe the Lord is going to do exploits for the people who have truly been seeking him for years, and have not been able to go on, as they watch other people soar pass them. What is the problem? Jesus is not a respecter of persons, there is something in your spiritual makeup that is blocking you.  Let us get it revealed and then find out what the solution, well the solution is always Christ, you know, and as you may know by now that when the Lord does a teaching like this, just as he teaches it, as the reason why you are blocked comes forth, the deliverance comes forth in the teaching. The spirit that is bringing forth the teaching is bringing forth the deliverance.  This ministry is under a miracle anointing right now to deliver people who are blocked from going on to spirituality, that is what is happening here right now.  I exhort you all to keep your hands clean, keep your mind clean, stay in obedience and get everything that God has for you, it is just not worth rising up in rebellion or pride, it is just not worth it. Just humble yourself, humble yourself, and receive this word that is going to set you free.

 

            I am back on that same sentence, before a person can merit to attain to his Ruach, before you can deserve to become spiritual, cause you are born carnal, before you can deserve to become spiritual, which means attaining to the world of Yetzirah, or another way to say it is before you can begin to function in the astral plane or before you can begin to function in the spirit, you must first be complete in all of the five Partzufim of the Nefesh of Asiyah.  Now what this is saying, let me put this on the board for you. Drawing #3 is on the board, this diagram is of the complete world of Asiyah, and as you could see there are twenty five elements of Asiyah. We start out with the five levels of soul, Nefesh, Ruach, Neshamah, Chayyah, and Yechida, but each one of these levels of soul has the five levels of soul within it. The Nefesh of Asiyah has within it a Nefesh, a Ruach, a Neshamah, a Chayyah, and a Yechida. Just like each Sefirot has another ten Sefirot inside of it, everybody understands that here I believe, you just take this column, this is the Nefesh of Asiyah, that is what we are all born with, the Nefesh, the Nefesh of Asiyah has a Nefesh, Ruach, Neshamah, Chayyah and Yechida in it.

 

            Now on a previous message it had to be part two, I think it was part two, if not it was part one. I mentioned to you all, pardon me not Chayyah, I thought I was already beginning to manifest in Ruach, and I had in my mind that I had moved from the world of Asiyah to the beginning of the world of Ruach, and now I find out that, that is not true, probably where I moved from was the Nefesh of the Nefesh to the Ruach of the Nefesh. How do I come to that conclusion? My life is still very carnal. I still get sickness in my body, I still have problems in my emotions, I still have problems with my mind, I have, I struggle in every area, I have trouble with my weight, I have trouble with disciplining myself to exercise, I have all the problems of human beings, how could I possibly on the next level of soul which is Ruach, is very high, I did not understand this in part two. Does anybody not know what I am talking about? Everyone is born with a Nefesh, and most people come into the world down here, with the Nefesh of the Nefesh, and then these other four levels of soul, Ruach, Neshamah, Chayyah, and Yechida of the Nefesh are added to you as you mature, and as you become a spiritual person. Some people never go from Nefesh to Ruach, this is where humanity is, we are all down in this corner here, the Nefesh of the Nefesh, we are pretty low. We are outer darkness, we are as far away from God as you could get in this world. Now I filled in all of these names because I want you to understand what I am saying here, but the truth is that we come into the world with a blank slate, except for this corner down here, Nefesh of Nefesh. Maybe I am going to do that, maybe we will make that another drawing. I gave a number to the five levels of soul under Nefesh and to the five levels of soul under Ruach, just to make this point to you, and this is the kind of terminology you will hear as we go on with this study. Number one is the Nefesh of the Nefesh of the world of Asiyah, number two is the Ruach of the Nefesh of the world of Asiyah.  There is another whole world after this called Ruach. Now there is another whole world after that called Neshamah, this is just the world of Asiyah, Number three is the Neshamah of the Nefesh of the world of Asiyah. Number four is the Chayyah of the Nefesh of the world of Asiyah, and number five down here is the Yechida of the Nefesh of the world of Asiyah, and after that you go back down to the beginning, you now have the Nefesh of the Ruach of the world of Asiyah.

 

            These are all levels of soul that we are ascending through. This is the procedure, these rungs of the ladder as you climb up into spiritual greatness, the end of which is immortality. These are the rungs of the ladder. Then you go to the Ruach of the Ruach of Asiyah, now according to what I read, to even get to the Nefesh of the Neshamah is very high, and that most people do not have it, but  we have a secret, those of us that truly have the mind of Christ, we are grafted in a very high place, but it is not us, but I should not be telling you that now. I just want you to understand this principle right here. Aside from what we get when Christ acquires us. This is the man that is born into this world, and the average man is in this corner of the world of action. Does anybody have any questions or not understand this at all?  The average man is born, is that what you want me to repeat? Right here in this very low place, you have a Nefesh which is the animal nature, the Nefesh of the Nefesh, the lowest aspect of the animal nature that you could be born with that you could have, that is what the average man is born with. Does everybody understand what is on the board? Yeah?

 

            COMMENT: Then, it continues on for the Neshamah the same way and the Chayyah and Yechida, it goes the same, you have to go through each level from Nefesh to the Yechida on the Neshamah?

 

            PASTOR VITALE: Right, and if you ever get here to the Yechida of the Yechida, then the next jump is a quantum leap into the world of the Ruach, at which point you would start all over again, the Nefesh of the Nefesh of the world of the Ruach.  Each of the worlds has five levels that we have to ascend to.  If there are five worlds and, well there are twenty five levels in each world.  There are five levels of soul in each world, and each level of soul has another five within it, so there is twenty five levels times five worlds to get to the top, at which point you are beyond genius you know.  We are very, very low down, we have fallen pretty much as far as we could fall in this world. Yes?

 

            COMMENT: Does that mean a hundred and twenty five worlds?

 

            PASTOR VITALE: If your math is right yes, a hundred and twenty five worlds, you are right. Yes.

 

            COMMENT: I do not have a Scripture that comes to mind but I am just getting an image of the mountains and valleys.

 

            PASTOR VITALE: Is everybody all right? I am going to just alter this drawing here. Drawing #4, I have emptied out all of the sections except where we exist and you could see how very low down the human beings of this world are. The human beings of this world exist in outer darkness. Jesus called it outer darkness and it is actually the Nefesh of the Nefesh of the world of Asiyah. We live in the far corner of the world, as far away from God as is possible. Now we are told that some people are rooted,  we are born when we incarnate, we are rooted in a particular level of soul, and that is why you are stuck where you are.  Short of a miracle from Jesus Christ, you will never be spiritual in your lifetime, I believe you are going to get your miracle, but you have to understand why it is so much harder for you than for other people, it has to do with where you are born, and what is interesting is that we have seen this example throughout society for generations.

 

            You were born in a particular social status and you could not get out of it, in other countries, you know if you were born as an, even today in India, if you are born as untouchable, it is like almost impossible to rise out of it. Maybe if you came to the United States where nobody knows who you are, just socially speaking, you might be able to ascend out of it. In Europe up until World War II, up until that time, even Winston Churchill was the second son in those days, the first son inherited everything, all the money, all the power, all the authority of the family, and it was up to his beneficiants to give it to his brother or sisters, depending if he was a wicked man, the brothers or sisters got nothing, they were completely at his mercy.  If you were born as the first son, you got it all. If you were born as the second son or the third son, you had lower status in the family, in families that have as many as six, eight, or ten children, if you were the tenth child you have very low status. If you are born as a female, you have a very low status, this is all just the social morés of this world, but in more recent times in this country, all of those worlds, all of those walls are breaking down, it does not matter if you are the first son or the sixth son, or the tenth son, you have equal opportunity as far as the world is concerned to go out to make your living, to make money, even today, parents leave an inheritance for their children, they distribute it equally, that whole concept of giving everything to the older son, or only to the son and not to the daughter, that has all been done away with since World War II, and that I believe is the natural sign that the same thing is happening in the spirit.

 

            Everybody that is born is born in a spiritual place, your root, you appear in this world, but your root comes out of a spiritual place, the Nefesh of the Nefesh.  You are either in the Nefesh of the Nefesh of the Nefesh or you are in the Ruach of the Nefesh of the Nefesh of the world of Asiyah. As far as I know there is only two places that the people that are in this world today come out of, but there could be others I just do not know about it, people being born in a very high spiritual place. I am not aware of that, you know, but that does not mean it does not exist.  Basically, people are born in two conditions, either they are born spiritual with some spiritual ability, or they are born without that spiritual ability, that is how I see the masses of people in this world. Some people are just naturally spiritual, and other people just, it just goes way over their head.  Those are the two categories that I see amongst the common people, the average man in the world today. Either your root, your spiritual root is in the Nefesh of the Nefesh of the Nefesh of the world of Asiyah or your spiritual root is in the Ruach of the Nefesh of the Nefesh of the world of Asiyah.

 

            Where you are determines how spiritual you are. Now, in Jesus Christ, this is changed. When Jesus Christ comes into your life, well especially if you have the seed of Christ, even the Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit given to you is your Ruach. When you receive the Holy Spirit, you receive the Ruach, the spiritual personality, what does that mean? What is a spiritual personality? A spiritual personality is a personality that is interested in spiritual things. If you are interested in reading the Bible, you are interested in spiritual things, if you are interested in hearing what a preacher has to say or praising the Lord if your heart if your emotions are responding to the move of the spirit, you have something spiritual moving in you, and that means most likely, you have your Ruach of the Nefesh of the Nefesh of the world of Asiyah. You receive that from the Lord in the form of the Holy Spirit, and in the same way, as you go on with God, when you receive the seed of Christ, you receive your Neshamah.  You see that we are not, those of us who receive the Holy Spirit and Neshamah from Jesus Christ, we are not going through the procedures outlined in Kabbalistic reincarnation.

 

            The procedures listed in Kabbalistic reincarnation says, you really have to die you know to, you have to do the best you can, you have to rectify your soul in this world, and then you die, and then you come back again rooted in the higher level.  Kabbalistic reincarnation says you cannot change your root. Once you are born in to this world and you are rooted in the Neshamah of the Neshamah of the world of Asiyah, part of you can ascend, and we will get to the details of that later, part of you can ascend but your root will always be in the Nefesh. It says, even if you get up to the Yechida of the Nefesh, your root will still be in the Nefesh of the Nefesh. That is just like in societal circles where there is a lot of you know snobbery, they will say, Well you, this is the whole concept behind the term nouveau riche if you have ever heard of it, nouveau riche is a term applied by what is called old money, families that have had a lot of money for a long time, and also are in higher society. They call the people who make a lot of money, like they come to this country and they make a lot of money, but they never polish up socially, they do not have the social graces and they do not have the sophistication that the old money has, they are called nouveau riche, that is a French term that means new wealth, new wealth as opposed to old wealth. You may have the money but you do not have the class, and in a lot of places no matter how rich you are, they do not want you if you do not have any class.

 

            That is what this is talking about, when you are born rooted in the Nefesh of the Nefesh of the world of Asiyah, you may climb up, but you may have manifestations of spirituality, but you will always be rooted down where you came from. You have to die and come back rooted in a higher place. Now in Jesus Christ this is changed, but it is not changing easily. This is not a free gift. What the free gift is, the free gift is your Ruach, your ability to ascend above your Nefesh, but then you have to work it, if you do not work it, it is not going to work. You have to work it to get the mind of Christ, and then once you get the mind of Christ, if you are not willing, if you are not willing to turn against your own carnal mind, you will not go any higher, that is as far as Jesus is going to go. Praise the Lord.  Does everybody understand this principle, I never understood that, even though, even though I have preached that there are people in different worlds just standing next to each other on the street, and that the world that you are in is manifested by the way you think. Somehow I never took that understanding this far, to understand that when we come into the world, just as we come into the world depending on who we are born to, and that is already affecting our entire future, who you are born to, the country that you are born in, the mother and the father that you are born to has already set the stage for the restrictions on your life or the opportunities on your life, in the same way, we come into this world, we flow out of a particular level of soul, and we bring that with us into this world, and we are rooted there. That is why some people just go flying, when they just, look we spend our whole life trying to find out what the call on our life is. When somebody finds it, whether you are called to be spiritual, or you are called to be artist or you are called to be a lawyer, some people do not find themselves until they are really on in years, and when they really find what they are called to be, or when they really find out who they really are, and this is my experience, they just take off. It took me a long time to find out who I was, but when I found my place, nothing could have kept me from it and I am still chasing after it, that is how I got to be where I am. I never wanted to be a teacher, I just wanted God, I want the truth, I want the truth, I love truth.

 

            You have to find out who you are, and we come into this world rooted in particular place which rooting limits us, but Christ breaks all the limits, all the limits are broken through in Christ.  This whole concept of Kabbalistic reincarnation, it just does not work in this incarnation, it does not work, I am sorry not in this incarnation, it does not work in this level of the third stage of the fall. Apparently it worked in the second stage of the fall, on the other side of the flood when man was still in an etheric body, you are able to ascend from level to level, and I do not know whether, I do not know what you had to do to ascend from level to level, because the Kabbalistic teaching, the way you ascend is by keeping the Mitzvot, and I do not believe there were any Mitzvot on the other side of the flood, because the law was not given until the Hebrew children came out of Mount Sinai.  There had to be some mechanism on the other side of the flood that made it possible for the beings over there to ascend, and the Kabbalists that have this revelation, they have a revelation of a truth that is applicable to another time, and it is also applicable today in Christ Jesus, but it is not applicable somehow, you know, I believe they did the same thing that is happening in the church today, the church, the people that are teaching in the church today, they cannot comprehend how we are going to overcome death.

 

            They do not have the teaching, they do not have the understanding, so they make up the rapture, well that makes sense, you are going to be raptured or you are going to get it after you die, they cannot comprehend how we are going to ascend out of our present fallen condition, so they say, Well you are going to get it after you die.  I think something similar happened with the Kabbalists, they got this revelation of the way things were, actually the way things are, but they got a true revelation of this whole concept of spiritual ascension, but they did not get a true understanding of how we ascend. They could not figure out how to do it, so there mind made up this concept of keeping the Mitzvot and that is how you ascend, but none of them are doing it.

 

            I would venture to say to you that every Kabbalist today that has a great spiritual mind was born into this world rooted in a place which would give them this great spiritual mind. Does anybody not understand what I am talking about? Remember the Hebrews were lifted up to a very high spiritual place in Mount Sinai, and the Hebrew children manifested this greatness of mind for a couple of thousand years, and even though there has not been a prophet in Israel for twenty four hundred years at this time, there is still Hebrew children, there are still Jewish people that have very powerful minds that understand levels of Kabbalah that I am probably not even capable of at this time, but I am capable of it potentially in Jesus Christ, but  I was not born into the root level where I would be a great Kabbalist.  Everything I have, I have in Christ.

 

            I am climbing, I am climbing up that ladder, and I am catching up, but I do not believe that you see that happening in Israel, that you do not see Jewish people being born into this world rooted in the lower planes that are climbing up to where the great Kabbalists are, I do not believe you see it happening, and I believe each year, and this is a big problem in Jewry today, that many Jews are falling away, they are falling away from their Judaism, they are becoming secularized or they are becoming Christians in the false doctrine of Christianity.  I do not see as a nation the people of Israel climbing upwards where in each generation there are more and more great Kabbalists, I do not see that happening. On the contrary, it is the exact opposite.  The great Kabbalists that we have today, they are like the remnants that still exists from the glory that was poured out upon the Hebrew children in Mount Sinai.  The nation as a whole are descending, the nation as a whole is descending. Praise the Lord, but of course they will be grafted back into their own tree when they recognize Jesus Christ as Messiah, which will only happen as a result of a supernatural miracle, as we all understand. Nobody with the kind of spiritual understanding that the Kabbalists have are about to embrace the false doctrine in the church today, they are just not going to do it.  We expect an outpouring, a miracle working outpouring from the sons of God to the Jewish people today, and I mean the Jewish people that know the word.

 

            I do not know how it is going to come partially through the thought forms that are being preached, through the thought forms are being formed as Christ centered Kabbalah is being preached and at some point, a barrier will be broken and we will have Kabbalists listening to what we say. Right now nobody even wants to listen to what we say, they are afraid of getting an unclean spirit, they cannot believe that it could possibly be God, and they will not even listen, so it has to be a supernatural move of the Lord Jesus Christ.  Are there any questions on drawing #4?

 

            I would like to go on, I am back in our notes now, I am on page three of section two of chapter one, In other words, though a person begins life with a Nefesh, it too, that Nefesh also has higher levels that must be attained through spiritual growth and rectification. Now if I did not make it clear, the higher levels of soul have to be added to you. I did not mean to give you the intention that all these levels of soul exists within us, and we have to climb up them. If I gave you that impression that is not correct. Each higher level of soul has to be added to us, it has to be added to us.

 

            Now, this is like a contradiction here because you know there is a working towards the higher level of soul, there is some truth in saying we have to merit it, this whole, I have given you this principle, I have expounded on this principle before. I believe that there is nothing that any Jew or anyone else can do today to acquire higher levels of soul outside of Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is our potential to attain higher levels of soul. When you receive the seed of Christ, if you are willing to make the effort, you have the potential to have these higher levels of soul added to you, but you do have to merit them, you have to merit them through hard work and prayer. If you cannot understand any of this deep teaching, if you continue to press into the kingdom, you will, and I will give you, put my testimony again on this tape, as the Lord directed me to Tree Of Life which was literally mind breaking for me, so hard I really could not, could barely understand it. One day as I was just pressing in, something, I saw something through the corner of my eye and it came at me very quickly and entered into me, it really alarmed me and knew it was too late, it was inside of me, and I just sat there and I prayed, I said, Lord if that was not you have mercy on me cause something spiritual just got inside of me, and did not understand what it was until I came to this level of teaching in Kabbalah. This is all documented that the soul, according to Kabbalah, the rectified soul of some righteous person will come and dwell with you to help you in your ascension, and the truth is that immediately after I had that experience, the understanding of the Tree of Life which was painfully difficult for me, my mind use to hurt me, my head use to hurt me, my understanding completely opened up. Now if that happened to me, that means that could happen to you, and I merited that, that righteous soul and I asked the Lord for more understanding as to who or what it was because I thought that I had the seed of Christ, so once I had the seed of Christ, what righteous soul is it that came to dwell with me? I really do not understand at this time.  I merited that because of my efforts, because I would not give up, once I got a hold of that understanding that I did not have a choice and that the Lord had directed me to this course of study, I submitted myself to that book and to those works as painful as it was, I submitted myself, and I got a reward, and it was a reward for effort, it was not a free gift.

 

            The free gift was my potential to receive the reward that I worked for, does anybody not understand that?  I hope I get some more righteous souls coming to dwell with me, I do not know how it works, I know ever since that righteous soul entered into me, I have been able to learn Kabbalah, but I am not happy with the speed with which I am learning. Now maybe that is being foolish or prideful, let the Lord be my judge, no one that studies under me should be my judge.  I am telling you I am not happy with the speed with which I am learning when I hear that Chayyim Vital learned the whole system in eighteen months. Let the Lord be my judge and let him give me more help or not give me more help, you know, I am not happy, I am not satisfied, I am happy of what I am learning, but I am not satisfied with how long it is taking me to learn it.

 

            Ever since that Tzadik entered into me, I have been learning easily, you know, I just have to put in a minimum of effort. My normal study effort and I understand, you know, so there was a radical change in my life after that experience. Praise the Lord, so we are reading here, in other words although the person begins life with a Nefesh, it too has higher levels that must be attained through spiritual growth, you attain to the higher levels through spiritual growth and rectification. Well the rectification means the doing of the Mitzvot and the studying of the Torah.  How do we acquire spiritual growth? We have a relationship with Jesus Christ, and we study to show ourselves approved and we are willing to look upon our sin nature, and to reject it.  If you are having trouble dealing with the sins that are exposed in you, your condition is that you love yourself to the point that you will not separate from yourself, and this probably arises out of a lack of understanding that this sin nature is not anything you should want to keep, and that rises out of the lack of understanding that today you are Christ. If you really believe that Christ is grafted to you and that you are Christ, you would turn against this other side of you.  Maybe you need to pray to the Lord to ask him to help you to understand who you really are, because you must betray your old nature, you must betray the husband of your old nature which is Leviathan, as long as you are defending Leviathan within yourself, you cannot be married to Jesus Christ, or at the very least, you are an adulteress.

 

            If you are having a problem believing the sins that are revealed in you, what I recommend you do, is ask the Lord why you will not divorce your first husband. I do not know there has to be some kind of a bondage in your life, there has to be a key to get you free, ask him why you love your first husband Leviathan so much that you will cleave to Leviathan rather than the truth, and Jesus is the Spirit of truth. Ask him, he will help you, he wants you to overcome.  Then after you, well let me read this sentence again, When all the levels of Nefesh are rectified and that, you know when I first read it, it sounds like such an easy thing until I look at my own experience and see that I am struggling for years you know, to get from the Nefesh of Nefesh to the Ruach of Nefesh, when all the levels of Nefesh are rectified, then a person is ready to ascend to a higher spiritual level that of the level of Ruach.  Of course, we are talking about Ruach of the world of Asiyah. He then repeats the process of growth on this higher spiritual plane from the level of Ruach, that is he must first master the Nefesh of his Nefesh, then the Ruach of his Nefesh, then the Neshamah of his Nefesh, and so on.

 

            Once he has acquired the Yechida of his Nefesh, then the entire level of Nefesh is said to be his, and he is ready to work on acquiring the levels of Ruach. Does everybody understand this principle? Anybody have a question or comment on this principle?  Now I want to encourage you and tell you that this is all changed in Christ Jesus. Jesus said we are with him in heavenly places. When the mind of Christ is grafted to us or to you, that, we have an aspect of our self that in Atzilut. We have jumped to Atzilut,  but this is the problem, this is very important that you understand this problem, in Christ we are sitting in heavenly places that is Atzilut, but our personality is down here. You cannot remain in Atzilut unless your personality comes up, and Jesus is literally dragging us up by the hairs of our head.

 

            According to the teaching of the Gate of Reincarnations, you start at the bottom and you work your way up, that was not my experience. I was in very bad shape when the Lord grabbed a hold of me and what he grabbed was my spirit, and after he grabbed my spirit he grabbed my mind, and he, I mean I am with the Lord twenty five years, and the things that he has dealt with me on in the last few years are things that most people deal with when they first come to the Lord, but I was so close to death, he grabbed me by my spirit and my mind first. Jesus is pulling us up from the top, according to Kabbalistic reincarnation, you ascend from the bottom up, you got up each step of the ladder, but not so with Jesus.  What you need to understand is that he is latching on to your spirit and he is giving you the mind of Christ like to magnets, they are sticking to you, and he is pulling you up.  If your personality does not come and line up with what Jesus has given you, you will not be able to hold on to what he has given you.

 

            He has given you the Holy Spirit and if you are listening to these messages, you must have the mind of Christ, that is all he is going to do for you as so far as giving you something, you need to understand that your personality must catch up to the mind that he has given you, you need to understand that you have received a great mind and a great spirit, that you did not deserve.  You did not merit it. He gave it to you because he wants to see you restored to life, and now your part is to work your program so that your personality, so that your animal personality rises up to where your mind is. You cannot stay divided like this, you cannot stay divided like this, you will lose what you have. You cannot stay faithful to a reprobate mind, you cannot stay faithful to ungodly opinions and emotions, because the whole time that you do this, there is a tug of war going on, your mind of Christ is up here and your ungodly thoughts and emotions are down here, and they are pulling at one another, and I have been telling you for years brethren, this world is under the dominion of Satan, the prince of the power of the air, and the only way you are going to get out of here is to reject her and her principles which is Leviathan and Cain. If you do not reject them, if you cleave unto the principles of this world, Christ will not be able to pull you to safety. You must agree with him or that tug of war is going to, the tie is going to break and you are going to go plummeting down and that has already happened to someone in this ministry, I will not put her name on the tape, that is what happened to her. She would not let go of the desires and things of this world, and she broke that line that connected to Christ broke and she fell all the way down and she is still in a lot of trouble. I do not know how to make it any plainer, or clearer to you, you must divorce your husband, you must, you must or you are playing with fire, you are in danger. You must give up the thoughts of Leviathan in your mind.

 

            Please do not anybody think I want you to divorce your natural husband, please do not anybody hearing this tape think that, Paul said in the book of Romans you must divorce your husband and look to Jesus Christ as your spiritual husband. You can only be in adultery for so long, and you will revert, if you do not take the victory and translate into your new husband which requires you to reject your old husband, if you do not take the victory, all of you, your mind and your spirit and your personality, everything will go plummeting back down and you will belong wholly to Leviathan again. Praise the Lord.

 

            Did I read this, yeah I read this, he must first master the Nefesh of his Nefesh.  We have finished section two of chapter one, let me give you this first paragraph, oh it is 3:15 already, let me just read the first paragraph of section three, we will pick this up after dinner tonight. This is chapter one, section three, and this section has a name, it is called the path of rectification. Please remember that rectification is talking about what we would say in the church is the justification of the soul or the making of that aspect of the soul righteous. Rectification means the correction of the soul unto righteousness.  Section three is talking about the pathway, what you have to do to restore the right standing of your soul. Reading now, even though as is known, there are people whose Nefesh is from Malkhut of Asiyah, now remember Malkhut is Nefesh there, they are interchangeable, there are people whose Nefesh is from Malkhut of Asiyah and others who are from Yesod of Asiyah.  That is just another way of me saying, some people are born rooted in the Nefesh and some people are born rooted in the Ruach.

 

            Chayyim Vital, he just changed his terminology from Nefesh to Malkhut, they are interchangeable, remember rather than saying the Nefesh of the Nefesh, he is saying the Malkhut is from the Nefesh to avoid confusion.  There are people whose Nefesh is from Malkhut of Asiyah, and others who are from Yesod of Asiyah, and some people are born spiritual and some are born less spiritual or not spiritual at all. Still every person must rectify the entire spectrum of Asiyah, only then can a person receive his Ruach from Yetzirah, since Yetzirah is greater than all of Asiyah. Well let us take that a little piece at a time. What he is saying is, before you, what he is saying is if you are born rooted in the Nefesh of the Nefesh of Asiyah, the whole, let me make this clear, this concept of being born rooted in a particular place, the reason you are born rooted in a particular place is because that aspect of your soul has sinned and needs to be rectified.

 

            If you are born into this world and your spiritual root is in the Nefesh of the Nefesh, that means that in some past life your Nefesh sinned and so it has come back into this world, the Nefesh of the Nefesh has come back into this world so that you can rectify it, you can restore it to right standing with God, that is what it means to be rooted in a particular place.

 

            It means that the aspect of soul that is incarnating has been blemished and it is come into this world to correct that sin. Does anybody have a question or not understand what I just said, do you understand what I just said?  What he is saying now is if you find out that your soul is rooted in the Nefesh of the Nefesh, do not just think well I have rectified the Nefesh of the Nefesh and now I can go right on to the Ruach of Asiyah because do not think that while, well I came into this world to purify my Nefesh and my Ruach of the Nefesh must be all right and my Chayyah of the Nefesh must be all right, so I could jump right from here from the Nefesh of the Nefesh and start working on the Ruach of the Nefesh, he says do not think that. He says you have to rectify or you have to work on every aspect of the Nefesh. Now according to the Gate of Reincarnations which is Isaac Luria's teaching, it is possible for you in past incarnations to have perfected the Ruach of the Nefesh and the Chayyah of the Nefesh, and Neshama of the Nefesh and the Chayyah of the Nefesh, and then even after you got that high if you sinned in your Nefesh in this incarnation you are down here in your Nefesh because you sinned in your Nefesh, but still your Ruach and your Neshamah are righteous.

 

            Do you need me to say that again? Yeah, let me say it again, it is possible that in past lives your Ruach and your Neshamah and your Nefesh were all made righteous and all rectified in past incarnations, but you sinned in your Nefesh, so your Nefesh had to come back, but your Ruach and your Neshamah were still righteous, you just messed up in your Nefesh.  It is possible, the fact that your soul root is in your Nefesh, do not assume that your Ruach and your Neshamah are not rectified, that is what he is saying, can you understand that? Can you understand that?  In that case, do not assume that if you are rooted in your Nefesh when you straighten out when you rectify your Nefesh, do not say, Well in a past incarnation my Ruach was cleansed, and my Neshamah was cleansed, and my Chayyah and my Yechida were cleansed, so I just had to fix up my Nefesh which I just did, so now I am going to jump right over to start working on the Nefesh of the Ruach. He says that does not work. Once you incarnate in this world in the Nefesh of the Nefesh, you have to go through all levels of the Nefesh before you could start on the Ruach.

 

            Now I do not have any examples for you right now as to what kind of correction comes from each level of soul, I asked the Lord for that, because this is a very abstract teaching, and I would like to be able to tell you, well a blemish in the Nefesh of the Nefesh, I would think would most likely be a sexual blemish, what does that mean? You fornicated or you committed adultery or something like that, and a blemish in the spiritual personality, well, that would be that you followed after a spirit that was not God, maybe you were into astrology or some kind of witchcraft, and then what would a blemish or a sin be in the Neshamah in the level of mind, you went after false doctrine.  The level of Chayyah, that is a high spiritual level of consciousness including political conscience, well maybe you pursued a wrong political doctrine in a past life, that would, and up here in the Yechida, I am not really sure. Well the Yechida means oneness, well maybe you were one with the wrong spirit.

 

            Do you know that there are people in this world that have a oneness with a spirit that is not God, they never marry, they are highly spiritual people, and they practice all kinds of pagan arts.  That would be an example of a blemish in a previous life that you are coming back to correct.  Let me say this one more time.  If by some chance you happen to have a knowledge that the Ruach of the Nefesh and the Neshamah and the Chayyah, and the Yechida of your Nefesh are all purified, they are all rectified, they are all, all right, you just had to come back with your Nefesh of your Nefesh because of sexual sin, do not think that you have no work in the areas of Nefesh, Neshamah, Chayyah, and Yechida, you still have to go through all of the procedures.  Let us follow what we just laid out. You came back and you straightened out this problem of sexual sin, you are no longer a fornicator in this life, or you are no longer an adulterer, or if you were of pornography in this life, you still have to experience, you still have to go, I am sorry, I am stumbling here, you still have to have experiences with a spiritual personality and follow Jesus, even though you did that in the past life, you have to do it again...(End of Tape one)

 

 

Tape 2

 

            You have to work on your whole Nefesh, and the sign that these other aspects of your Nefesh really were rectified in previous lives would be that you would go through these trials very quickly, like take me for example, from the first day I came into the church, I was able to discern false doctrine, from the first day, it is so strong in me, this ability to recognize false doctrine is so strong in me that I have no explanation for it other than what I am telling you here. I have seen Christian after Christian after Christian fall prey to false doctrine, and with me, it is almost instantaneous, I just know that it is wrong, I see it instantly, and that is why the major part of my ministry is exposing error in a Godly manner so that people can receive it. I do not seek to cast people down, I want them to know the truth so that they could choose the right way, and that is a large part of my ministry, a very powerful part of my ministry. How did I get like this? This is the only explanation that I could think of, and that is in previous life I had rectified the Neshamah at of the Nefesh, I do not even understand you know what the Ruach of the Neshamah would be like, I do not even have an understanding of it, unless it is higher levels of the same. If the Nefesh of the Neshamah is the mind of Christ, that means you can understand, you can locate and identify doctrinal truth on a particular level, and then the Ruach of the Neshamah, you ought to be able to identify true doctrine and separated from false doctrine on a higher level. If that is the case, then this ability that I have to identify not only identify false doctrine, but to explain it so that people could see it for what it is, I must, my soul on this level must come from a very high place.  Maybe, well this must be a part of what I have in Christ, I do not know that I was born with this, I know that I was born with a very logical mind.

 

            Does anybody not understand what I am talking about? This is much more complicated then last week, but I think it is very interesting if you can grab hold of it.   The one paragraph that I read to you is more involved than I thought that it was. Let me take another look at it. Even though as is known there are some people whose Nefesh is from Malkhut of Asiyah, and others who are from Yesod of Asiyah, still every person must rectify the entire spectrum of Asiyah. That means all twenty five, all twenty five elements of Asiyah. Only then can a person receive his Ruach from the next world, which is Yetzirah, because the world of Yetzirah is greater than the whole world of Asiyah.  We have to go through twenty five elements and rectify them according to Kabbalistic reincarnation. According to Christ centered reincarnation, we are granted this grace of being tacked up in to Atzilut, but if we do not bring our personality, if we do not bring our Nefesh up to Atzilut, the...word incomprehensible, of Kabbalah, the klipot, or the evil that is down in this world will drag us back down here.  We have received a "leg up" from the Lord Jesus Christ. Praise the Lord any questions or comments before we break from dinner? Praise the Lord.

 

            Praise the Lord we are back from dinner, we are working on Gate of Reincarnations chapter one, section three, called the Path of Rectification, and we commented on the first paragraph before we went out to dinner.  I am reading from the second paragraph now. Not all souls are rooted in the same level, however in spite of the level of the root of one's soul, a person is still responsible to rectify all strata within the level of world that to which he is attached. I guess that English is not too good.  Well we talked about this earlier, we all understand what it means that your soul is rooted, that when you incarnate, your soul comes out of a particular level and you are rooted in the level, and I explained to you that if you are rooted in the Nefesh of the Nefesh or if you are rooted in the Neshamah of the Nefesh, you have to rectify that whole Nefesh. In other words, I did not put it to you this way earlier, let us say your soul is rooted in the Neshamah of the Nefesh, you have to rectify all of the levels of soul above you, and the levels of soul beneath you. Exactly what that means for us, I cannot tell you, for the Kabbalist, what it means is that you have to do certain Mitzvot, it is all spelled out, you have to do certain Mitzvot and study the Torah, and they believe that you rectify your soul, except that I have a problem, it is working because I do not see an awful lot of Jews that I know about unless it is something I do not know about who are going on, and ascending into immortality because it cannot be done without Jesus Christ.

 

            Now remember, we are dealing with a teaching here that has a different philosophy than Christ centered Kabbalah, and this philosophy is that you can be saved or rectified or made righteous through works, now we do not believe that. We believe that you can only be made righteous by being grafted into the tree of life which is the glorified Jesus Christ today.  You are going to hear me reading some things that do not really apply to us. I think we are going to go through this chapter pretty quickly because I do not know how to apply it to us and it probably does not apply to us at all.  Does anybody not understand what I just said? When the teaching talks about rectifying your soul, I do not really know what you have to do. In Christ Jesus I know that it is very simple in Christ Jesus, you just, you have to judge your sin nature, now please recognize that as far as I understand the Kabbalist does not recognize the need to judge their sin nature, it is very clear from these teachings that they believe you can be, your soul can be rectified by actions, by things that you do.  This is the message that so many human beings, Christians and Jews and otherwise believe, I speak to so many people, Catholics and Pentecostals and Methodists, people from all forms of Christianity and Jews, telling me I am a good person, I do good works and I am good to people and therefore I am all right.

 

            They are basing their righteousness on behavior. Now behavior is important, you should be doing good things, you should not have license to do evil, but you could keep every law of behavior, and you still will not descend out of hell and death because hell and death is in your mind. Hell and death is in your heart, hell and death is Satan and Leviathan, the mortal foundation of fallen humanity.  How can you ascend out of what you are? In order to ascend you must ascend into something else, there is no good thing in man. According to the mind of mortal man we have good versus evil and some people are good as compared to serial killers and people who do evil, but the goodness of fallen man is still in hell. To ascend above the pains of hell, you, even the good people die, good by the criteria of this world, good people die, good people get sick, good people experience tragedy, good people experience poverty, death, sickness, the loss of children.  What does that mean? It means that your goodness has no power.

 

            Your goodness has no power to keep you alive, to protect your children, or to save you or your family from sickness and death, so it is a corruptible goodness, it is a mortal goodness. If you just stop to think, you do not really need any more proof than that. The best person in the world will still die and will still experience some measure of tragedy in his family or some member of his family or members of his family will experience tragedy. Therefore we must escape to another world, because this whole world is corrupt, this world is broken down into different levels and some levels are more evil than other levels, but the very best level of this world that we are in, which is the Nefesh of the Nefesh, still has tragedy and death.  You cannot escape from yourself, we must depart from our self and enter into another world and become a new creature in order to escape from tragedy and death.

 

            This is the foundational error of the reincarnation of the Kabbalist, the reincarnation of the Hindu, the reincarnation of the Buddhist. This is the error of their doctrine, you cannot escape from yourself. I do not know how far the Kabbalistic reincarnation goes because I have not read anything about it except what we are studying now but I know Hinduism teaches that you come out of the body, and has all kinds of information about reincarnation and ascension, out of the physical body.  When you ascend, and I believe it is true, that you can ascend out of the physical body in non-Christian reincarnation, but you are still in hell. Now I do not know what your experience is like, I honestly do not know, but I do know this, that anything and everything or any and every element or possibility of reincarnation that is offered to us as so long as we are in this world is still hell.

 

            I admit that there are some places and some states of being that are less hell than others, obviously so, we sit here tonight in a beautiful well lit room, it is freezing out there, we are warm, we just ate, we are filled with food, you know, this is not, we are not in hell in these elements of our life. There are people that live on the streets, people dying on the streets, people starving to death, they are in a real hell, a level of hell much more than the level that we are in.  The very, very best that this world can offer is still hell.  Therefore, we must emigrate, we must migrate to another world which is called heaven. Heaven is another world, and it is the world that is beyond the Nefesh of the Nefesh. The world to come is Binah, and Binah is associated with the, you got me here I have to figure it out, Binah, well let us see, the Keter is associated with Atzilut and the Chokhmah is associated with Beriah, well, Binah is associated with the world of Beriah, so we have to ascend even beyond the Ruach, the world after the Neshamah which is where we are now, I am sorry the world after the Nefesh which is where we are now is the Ruach, and then we have to ascend into the next world after that which is Beriah.

 

            I guess I did not say that clearly, let me say that again. Right now we are in Asiyah, we have to ascend into Yetzirah which is the world of the Ruach, and then we have to ascend into the next world which is Beriah, that is the world to come, and in each of Asiyah, we have twenty five levels in each world to get through.  In Christ Jesus, there is an aspect of our self that is planted all the way up in Atzilut. He is our anchor, he is anchored in Atzilut and he has let down this lifeline to us down here in the Nefesh of the Nefesh, and we have to climb the mountain. In Christ Jesus it is possible, apart from Christ Jesus it is not possible, because no matter where you ascend to, you are still in hell, does anybody not understand what I just said?  It is a deception, it is a deception to think that spiritual ascension apart from Christ will deliver us from hellish conditions. Praise the Lord.

 

            Moving on, not all souls are rooted in the same level, however in spite of the level of the root of one's soul, a person is responsible to rectify all strata, that means all levels, within the level of world that he or to which he is attached. This includes those levels within the same world, but below his root as well as those above it. No individual can begin to rectify the next level of soul applicable to the next world until he has rectified all the lower levels of the world in which he is rooted. Thus he can initiate work on Ruach form Yetzirah only after his Nefesh from Asiyah is completely rectified. Now, bear in mind that what is being spoken about in this document is doing certain Mitzvot, there is a list of certain things you must do to rectify your soul, and that as far as I know does not apply to us. I know that my whole, I talk about myself a lot because I am the example, a lot of what I know, I know from the experiences that the Lord Jesus has given me. A lot of what I recognize in Kabbalah comes not only from the doctrine of Christ, but from my own experiences in Christ Jesus, and I know that from the day the Lord received me, my life has been one long effort to change to a better way, to ascend, to improve myself, to recognize the source and the root of my own problems and to overcome them. This has been going on for twenty five years.

 

            I have to the best of my knowledge, I have not performed any Mitzvot, I have not performed any ritualistic prayers, what I have done is put myself before the Lord, an open book, willing to see anything that he would show me, willing to ask him to crush me, and to do anything that needs to be done so that I should be blameless because I do not want to be hurting anybody, I want to be a force for good in the world, and that is my heart's desire.  For twenty five years I have been in this program, I have changed, I have changed a lot, but I am still mortal and I still have a fallen soul, and if I would stop to think about it, it could be discouraging, but I do not think about it, because they get better, and I have become a force for good in the world, and I will just get as far as I could get. I have a hope that I will ascend into immortality before my body gives out.

 

            I told you all off of the tape earlier, the Lord revealed to me yesterday that this is what Paul was talking about when he talked about the race, when he said that you have to finish the race, you are running a race, the race that we are running is against death. Because even though I believe that reincarnation of our immortal soul is a reality, this personality that I am will die and never rise again. There is a seed inside of me, when you die there is a tenth of you that survives, a tenth of us, that is the worm that dieth not that Jesus speaks about, that reincarnates indefinitely until it is delivered through union with Jesus Christ.  I, Pastor Vitale, when I die, I will never rise again, my source will rise again.  Therefore, I have a race, if I want to survive, Pastor Vitale who I believe myself, who I know myself to be in this lifetime, if I want to enter into immortality, I have to obtain to a certain level in Christ Jesus, I attained by the power of Christ Jesus, I have to do it before death takes me, because I am racing against death.

 

            Now I believe that I have the opportunity to attain, I believe that we are in the correct season, that it is the season for somebody for the first person to stand up and there will be many after that, and that when that one person stands up, when that first person stands up, the door to immortality will be open and it will be easier for everyone coming thereafter. Jesus was the first one to enter into immortality, well that is not exactly accurate, Jesus was the first fallen man to enter into immortality, Enoch did not have a human body, and Elijah was not born of a woman, in any event, I might not have these details right, there is a lot that I do not know, but Jesus Christ of Nazareth was the first one who entered into immortality and the poured out of his spirit upon all flesh giving all of humanity an opportunity to follow in his path.

 

            There, I do believe that some of the Hebrew prophets entered in to immortality, but they did not ascend to a form whereby they could help others do the same.  I am getting ahead of myself, as we get ahead in these messages, you will see that the Gate of Reincarnations teaches that these righteous souls which would be the prophets that get into immortality, they will come and dwell with people for a season to help them with their walk.  These are called tzadik, righteous souls will come and dwell with you and give you a leg up, they stay with you for a season and then they leave.  They leave you, you are left right back in hell again, you are right back where you started from. You may be more spiritual, but you still do not have any access to the kingdom of God which is the world to come unless you are joined to Jesus Christ.

 

            What Jesus did that these other righteous souls have not done, is that Jesus is now in a spiritual form whereby he comes to dwell with people to help them,  and he literally weaves himself together with that person and never leaves them, and never forsakes them, and therefore in his righteousness raises that other person up. Did I make that clear? Did I make that clear? According to reincarnation, there are righteous souls that will come and help anybody who is trying to improve himself, they stay for a season, they become your understanding, they guide you in the right directions, and then they leave you, and then you are on your own again, but Jesus never leaves you, he weaves himself together with you and gives you the opportunity to enter in on the basis of his righteousness. Now no other Bible character that I know of has ascended to that height, and the title of Jesus Christ of Nazareth is Savior of the world, he is the only ascended soul that is in a form that can weave together with the individual.  The gate of reincarnations will tell you that the reason the soul, the righteous soul that comes to stay with you, stays for a season and leaves, is because that righteous soul does not want to be tainted by the sin of the fallen person.  Our sin cannot corrupt the glorified Jesus Christ.

 

            This is the miracle of Jesus Christ. He not only comes to live with us, he joins himself to us, which the other righteous souls do not, they do not join themselves to us in that weaving together configuration. Jesus weaves together with us and he is not corrupted by our sin, but on the contrary imparts righteousness to our unrighteousness. That is the miracle of Jesus Christ.  I do not even know how I got on that, what was my point here? I was telling you that, I forgot my whole point, but so I am looking at section two now, and it is talking about what you have to do to merit ascension I guess, I am sorry that I forgot what I was talking about, but that was interesting what I told you anyway. Let us go on.  We have to, oh I know what I was telling you, I was telling you that I do not know how this concept of rectifying the whole Nefesh of the Nefesh, I do not know what that means to you, because we do not do the Mitzvot, we do not say these ritualistic prayers, I was just telling you about my own experience, that from the day Jesus laid hold of me, I have been on a self improvement program  that involves looking at all my flaws and my weaknesses and every thing that I do wrong, things that I say wrong, things that I think wrong, things that I feel wrong, every aspect of every relationship, if there is the slightest bit of conflict with anybody, I want to know what my part was in that conflict that does not glorify God.

 

            This has been going on for twenty five years, so I am going to guess that this must be the spiritualization of the Mitzvot.  Because Jesus Christ is woven together with my soul, I can go all the way up and ascend out of this world, because Jesus Christ is rooted in Atzilut. He is my anchor, he is anchored in Atzilut and the part of him that is woven together with me is the rope and I have to climb the mountain.  It is the glorified Jesus Christ that is rooted in Atzilut and his son or his seed Christ Jesus is in me, rooted to me and woven together with me. Jesus Christ glorified is at one end of the rope and Christ Jesus his son is at the other end of the rope. One end of the rope is down here in hell and the other end of the rope is in Atzilut, the world which is even higher than the world to come. Atzilut is actually an aspect of Adam Kadmon, the creator.  This is the spiritualization of the Mitzvot, unless there is another aspect to this teaching that is not in print that Kabbalists would tell you or teach you, unless that is true and I do not know about it, I have to go by what I see here.

 

            We are being told that we can be perfected by saying these prayers, and does not work, you cannot be perfected by prayers.  I knew after twenty five years with God, you can pray your head off, if you do not get up and do it, well let me say it this way, there is no answer to your prayer other than you get up and do it. You pray and you get the strength to do it. You have a problem, you pray about that problem, the Lord will give you the strength to do what you need to do to overcome that problem.  This may be work out your own salvation, you were asking me that question off of the tape, I would say that is what is work out your own salvation means, you must work it out, but you cannot work it out if you do not have the power of Christ Jesus attached to you. It is a cleansing, this rectification, the reality of the rectification is a cleansing from the deepest level of your soul, from the unconscious part of your mind, all the way out to the conscious part of your mind, and this you know I am inclined to say that the Kabbalists really do believe you can perfect your soul through works because Jesus said to them, you make the surface of the cup and platter clean, but inside you are dead men's bones.  I believe the Lord just spoke to us, there is no hidden side to this message, the Kabbalists believe that you can purify yourself with verbal prayers, with religious works.

 

            When Jesus came to Pharisees, he said to them, you have got it all wrong, Jesus did not come with the next revelation, he came with a correction, he said to them, you have got it all wrong, you think you can purify yourself with these ritualistic works, but all you are doing is washing the surface of the platter. You have got to look at the depth of your heart and your mind, and once again we are told that even Moses was afraid to look.  The Lord is helping me to preach this message, let me just repeat what just came forth by revelation, the spiritualization of the Mitzvot, now remember the Kabbalists believe that you are rectified or that you are made righteous by doing these ritualistic prayers called the Mitzvot and good works which are called the Mitzvot, the spiritualization of the Mitzvot is personal improvement from the depths of the unconscious part of mind all the way out to the conscious part of your mind. Purification of motive, the spiritualization of the Mitzvot is purification of motive and you will never purify your motives, if you will not look at your motives, and you will never look at your motives unless you are willing to give up your pride.

 

            Praise the Lord.  Does everybody understand that we got that, the spiritualization of the Mitzvot is the inspection and interjection of your own motives, facing them, and purifying your motives, praise the Lord, thank you Jesus.  Again, once again, specifically what it means that you have to rectify the whole Nefesh of the Nefesh, unless this comes out by revelation, I do not know what to tell you, the Kabbalists would say, if you want to rectify the Neshamah of your Nefesh, you say this prayer and you say that prayer, and you say that prayer, and you are rectified.  Unless this comes out now by revelation, I do not know exactly what you have to do to rectify your Neshamah of your Nefesh. It is not even really clear to me how to pinpoint exactly where you are.

 

            We will just keep on going, it is just a general overhaul, a general exposure of motives confession of the sin of the motives, and a change, a rejection of the wicked motives, and a migration into the righteous motives of Jesus Christ.  There may never be any delineation, the Lord may never tell us, well when you reach this level of purifying your motives, you have reached the Neshamah of the Nefesh, the Lord may never tell us that, because as far as I am concerned, I do not need those little details, you know, I think at some point, I would like to have a general idea of where I am just so that I could know, but the Lord may not even tell us that. I know that I have made incredible progress in twenty five years, that I am a whole new person, you know, and I know that I get better everyday, that I get stronger every day and I overcome everyday, maybe that is all I have to know, you know.

 

            I guess if the Lord wants to tell me more, he will tell me more, we should be focusing on our own program and not worrying about these little details that really are just to desire a knowledge of them is a spirit of pride, and I confess that, you know, so I just put the whole thing in the hands of the Lord. As long as you could see that you are making progress, you should be content with that and I should be content with that.  Once you rectify the whole Nefesh of the Nefesh, then you could go on to start dealing with the Ruach of the Nefesh. Now, I could see that, I could see the Nefesh as being, the whole Nefesh of the Nefesh as being your whole carnal life, you have to rectify your whole carnal life. I do not know how to break down each element although I did it earlier on the tape. When you get to the Ruach, you are dealing with your spiritual life, you are dealing with five levels of your spiritual life, then when you get to the Neshamah, you are dealing with five levels of your mental life, because Neshamah is the mind of God, and I do not really know how to break down those levels. Personally when I look at my own experience, I am inclined to believe that I am improving on all of these levels at the same time.

 

            That is my opinion, now this is not my opinion, this is my observation when I look at myself, that the Lord is working with me in all five areas of Asiyah at the same time, I know that my Nefesh is not completely rectified, I just have to much trouble with my weight, and too much trouble with disciplining myself to do exercises, I just have too much trouble to say that my Nefesh is completely rectified, yet I am a highly spiritual person, I am a highly spiritual person in God. I have a lot of spiritual knowledge, a lot of spiritual experiences.  There has to some activity in the Ruach of Asiyah for me, as far as the Neshamah goes, I may be the highest intellect in the church at this time, it will not always be that way, I do not know anyone else in the church that teaches on the level that I teach.

 

            How could I be this high in my Neshamah, when I am having a problem disciplining myself to walk on the treadmill? The answer has to be that the Lord is improving me on all five levels at once. He is working with me on all five levels. I would say, my opinion at this point is, that this is another benefit of being dragged up by the Lord Jesus Christ, he is above us, the whole principle of Isaac Luria, he is saying that it is not that he will not give you permission to go over to the Ruach until you completely rectify your Nefesh, it is not a question of permission, it is that you do not have the power to get over to start working on your Ruach, until you have completely rectified your Nefesh, you do not have the power to do it. You are down under all of this sin and you cannot get up.  In our case, Jesus Christ our advocate is in Atzilut, he is above us, and he can be working on all five areas of the world of Asiyah within us at once, because he is already above us, that is what it looks like to me.

 

            Now, what it would be like to go from the world of Asiyah to the world of Ruach or actually it would be the world of Yetzirah, I honestly do not know, I do not know. The way the Lord teaches me is that when that happens to me, then he will say to me, that is what you read about in the Gate of Reincarnations, you have now ascended into the world of Yetzirah.  I do not believe that has happened to me yet. I believe I have some Yetziratic experience, I have spiritual experiences, I see in the spirit, and I have a lot of knowledge, but there is no way that I am fully conscious, maybe that is the sign, if you go into the world of Yetzirah, you become fully conscious.  I have read several occult books where the authors claim that they are fully conscious in the astral plane, which is according to the Kabbalists the Hebrew word is Yetzirah, the astral plane is the same. They claim they are fully conscious on the astral plane, that they walk through the earth doing their daily deeds and they see angels all around them and they see the beings that exist in the astral plane, and they literally dwell with them, well we dwell with them too, but we are not aware that they are here, that they visibly consciously dwell with the beings that exist on the astral plane.  This is what has just come into my mind, perhaps that is what it means, our consciousness has to be fully active on each level of consciousness, just aware as we are here in this world, we could look out the window, we could walk out the door, we see other people, we know what is going on, we hear the news, we hear what is going on across the world and in other countries, we are fully conscious in this world, every area that our eyes can see, we can recognize. We know what a tree is, we know what a truck is, we function in this world, we go out, we drive cars, we take planes, we buy clothes, we buy food, we are fully functioning on this level.

 

            I am not fully functioning on the Yetziratic level. I have some Yetziratic experiences, I have dreams, I see in the spirit, I am intuitive, I have knowledge, but I am pretty much blind, I am very blind on the Yetziratic level. Brethren if you do not know it, I am preaching this message largely by revelation.  I did prepare for this message, I studied these notes, and I told the Lord when I studied, that there were areas that I could not relate to, I could read you these notes, but I could not really relate to it, I told the Lord that if he wanted me to have more information for you today, he was going to have to help me, because I did not know how to apply what I am reading here to reality, to experience, I did not know how to do it, and this is what is coming forth. I believe we just heard from the Lord.

 

            The way we would understand that we had graduated to the Yetziratic world or the world of Yetzirah which is on the level of Ruach which is the spiritual personality is that you become fully conscious on that level. You receive the beings that dwell there, and you would be able to interact with them, and so the same for the Neshamah, there are different species that dwell in each level of soul. Now remember the astral plane which is the world of Yetzirah is a hostile world.  That is the world where evil entities and demons dwell. When we get to the Neshamah, the world of Neshamah, I am told according to what I read, that it is a much safer place to be. So long as we are rooted in the Nefesh and the Ruach which is Asiyah and Yetzirah, we are in danger of being preyed upon by what the Kabbalists call the klipot. You want to call them demons, you can call them demons.

 

            There are entities that dwell in these worlds that seek for food, the energy of the human being. We are their food. They drink our spiritual blood which is the energy that keeps us alive. The energy that flows in the blood of our veins.  This is a dangerous place to be. See why I am having so much trouble walking on the treadmill? Because this world that I dwell in, I am rooted in Asiyah is so heavily laden with the klipot, they work against me, everything that I try to do to ascend in God, they work against me. It is just like the gravity of starting a car or a spaceship taking off, you need the largest amount of fuel to get moving, once you get out of the atmosphere, a spaceship, or once the car is in cruising speed, it is much easier going, we have got to get out of this realm, this world of Asiyah, we have got to get out of it, because it is working, everything we try to do, there are forces working against us, it will not always be this way. Life will not always be this hard, we have to pierce through to the other side, and our existence will be much more peaceful and contented and pleasant than it is here. This is a very hard war, I have been in this war for twenty five years, and for years before that before I came to the Lord, Satan was trying to kill me, I have been in this war for all my life, I am very tired. I do not know how much longer it will take for me to pierce through, and I do not know so I have to keep on fighting, but it will not always be this way, it is just until we get past the gravity known as Satan who keeps trying to pull us down every time we ascend. We must fall out of agreement with her to overcome her mind.  Any questions or comments before we go on, you have a question? 

 

            COMMENT: Looking at that graft, I kept thinking about the woof and the warp when you say about the threads going this way and that way, but right after that the Lord came to me, one of these people in Pennsylvania, they had these patches, they sit down and they have these sewing circles and each one has a patch and they sew it together, and it made me think of all the worlds coming together and the beings that you speak of.

 

            PASTOR VITALE: Well we are suppose to come together as one unity. All of the species of the world. Now remember each one of us is a world. We are suppose to be unifying all of the species within us. All of these species that dwell within us, all of these worlds and their inhabitants are within us, and they are running amuck, doing whatever they want because we are not doing our job, and I do not say that to condemn you, I am trying to raise your consciousness. You need to know that all of the worlds are unified in man. We are responsible for pulling every world within us into order. If you need a natural example, this is what has happened in this ministry, when I first started teaching in this ministry, everybody was out of order, everybody was in rebellion, everybody was trying to control the pastor, everybody wanted to do what they wanted to do, it is a miracle what has happened here, that you have all come into order to the degree that you have, which is a pretty significant degree. It is a miracle, I never thought it would happen, I had days of hopelessness, but it is by the power of Jesus Christ that this ministry has shaped up and come into order. Well that is what you have to do with the worlds within you. I have to do it with the worlds within me, you have to do it within the worlds within you.

 

            We have to bring ourselves into right order, but you cannot bring the different elements of yourself into right order until you are willing to look at them. You have got to look at the criminals within, and control them. You have to put them in jail, you say, I know that you are a part of me but you cannot manifest through me, I will not let you. That is what we are all called to do.  This is the rectification of the soul, the real thing,  not just saying prayers, it is the real thing, and by bringing these elements of our own self under the authority of Christ Jesus within us, that is the rectification of the soul, we deal with each element of ourselves that is sinning and say, you cannot sin anymore.  We cannot get away from these elements. The first reaction that people have when they move on in this program is that they just want, they have any experience with old order deliverance, they say, I want it out, I think it is a demon, get it out of me, but this cannot be cast out because it is you, it is a part of you that is unrighteous, and the way you rectify it is by bringing this unrighteous aspect of yourself under the authority of Jesus Christ, and redirecting it so that it is now in a positive direction. We are getting more revelation here, everybody I hope you can hear this, this is the spiritual reality of rectification. Christ Jesus within you must look at the unholy, ungodly and spiritually criminal elements in your own mind, and you must speak to them, and tell them you will not think through me, I will not allow you to do it, but you will come under the authority of Christ Jesus in me, and I will force you to do the associated work, whatever your sin is, I am going to turn it around to the other side and use it for righteousness sake. Whatever intelligence you are using for evil, I am going to take that level of intelligence and use it for the good of the kingdom, use it to apply it to study and understand every aspect of your soul that is being used to hurt other people. When you see envy in yourself, what good can you do with envy? Brethren, once you recognize envy within yourself and war against it and prevail over it, you will see envy wherever it is manifesting in human beings and you will be able to pray for those people, and if the Lord tells you it is appropriate, to even reveal it to them, but you will be able to pray for people and help people, because you will now recognize envy.

 

            This is the true spiritualization of the rectification of the soul. When you are down in the Nefesh of the Nefesh, you are dealing with your behavior, most of you here have been in the church all your life and your behavior is pretty rectified, then go down into the next level, the next layer underneath. I only know of the subconscious and the unconscious parts of the mind, I really do not know how to break it down into five levels. I have the conscious, the subconscious and the unconscious. I will have to wait for the Lord to show me how to get five levels out of that, I do not know where they are. You have to go into the depth of your own being, look at the entities dwelling there which are really a part of you and by the force of your will in Christ Jesus, cause them to turn from their evil ways and use that quality for the kingdom of God. That is the true rectification. Praise the Lord. This is getting very interesting.  On the level of Nefesh, we are dealing pretty much with surface issues on the level of Ruach, we are dealing maybe with the subconscious motives on the level of Neshamah we are dealing with intellectual pursuits, doctrine.  I guess I went through this earlier, the Lord keeps telling me this, I guess I have not really got it in my spirit yet. Then when you are rectifying the Chayyah of this world, you are dealing with a high level of conscience, a political conscience, this is a conscience that is beyond your own personal conscience, a societal conscience, a political conscience, a world view conscience, that conscience that you have, it has to line up with Jesus Christ.

 

            Then Yechida, I am not really sure about that, except that I know that I am involved in that to some degree because Yechida has no female, and I do not have any companion, there is nobody that I know that could be my companion, God is my companion. Aside from that, I do not know what to say about Yechida, but that you are separated, you are separated from the intimacy of this world and you are joined to the Lord, maybe that is the whole thing.  Once again I see the Lord working with me on all five levels at once. Now that may not be true of other people, but it is true of me. I am being dealt with on all five levels, unless this comes out by revelation, I have no idea how my world would change when the Lord started dealing with me on the world of Yetzirah. The only thing I would say right now is that every aspect of soul, Nefesh, Ruach, Neshamah, Chayyah, and Yechida, that the Lord would be dealing with me on those levels in a much more spiritual way, because Ruach is the world of Yetzirah, which is the spiritual world.

 

            I know that I have asked the Lord if I will ever travel in the spirit, I have similar experiences to that, perhaps I have to ascend into the world of Yetzirah to have those experiences, I do not know. We shall see, whatever the Lord wants to give me is fine, I do not want anything the Lord is not giving me. I do not want to go any faster than he takes me because I may not be able to cope with it, but I have an insatiable desire for things of this spirit, and things of this life. Somebody was telling me that yesterday, somebody that knows me for a long time, they know me for twenty four, twenty five years, and they were telling me, Pastor Vitale, you have not changed in twenty four years, you are insatiable for things of God. She said to me, you know a lot of people, a lot of needy people came into the church and they got what they needed, they got filled up and then they just went on with their lives, and they stopped pursuing God in any radical way, because they got what they needed. She says, but you never filled up, and she is right, I have never filled up, and I hope that I never do. Praise the Lord.

 

            I would guess that my soul is rooted in a pretty high place, in a place that pursues God. Well let us just keep going, we will get more understanding as we go on, there is a lot that I do not know, but there is a lot that the Lord has to tell us.  Everybody understands that the principle is, you cannot, well the Kabbalistic principle is, you cannot start to work on Ruach until you have rectified Nefesh,  but in Christ Jesus we are working on all five levels at once. Everybody understand that?  Let us go on, similarly in order to attain his Neshamah from Beriah, a person needs to rectify every part of his Ruach in all of Yetzirah, after which he can then receive his Neshamah from Beriah, but that is not true, you can get the mind of Christ grafted to you by chasing and panting after Jesus Christ.

 

            Now do not misunderstand me, once you get that Neshamah, once you get that mind of Christ grafted to you, you have to work on your Nefesh, and you have to work on your carnality, you have to work on your social skills and your communication, and everything that we talked about here, you have to work on your Ruach, you have to work on your spirituality, what does that mean? You have to be willing to share your spiritual experiences with me, and you have to risk me telling you or some other member of the body of Christ telling you that, that dream that you had or that word of knowledge that you had, that it was not from God. You have to be willing to take that critic so that you can grow in Christ.  Another thing I wanted to tell you, this is a perfect example or a perfect way of understanding the Scripture that says, we must grow up to the fullness of the stature of Jesus Christ.

 

            A lot of people find it hard to believe that Christ could be grafted to you and he has to be trained up, but I have been teaching for a long time that the Christ that is grafted to you has to be trained up, that is what discipleship is all about. In order to enter into a discipleship ministry, you have to have Christ grafted to you because it is Christ that is being disciple, your carnal mind is not being disciple. Well here it is right here, Christ is grafted to you on the level of Neshamah of Asiyah and he has to be instructed and trained up because it is Christ in you that is ascending. Remember, your soul which is really your carnal mind has no power to get up beyond the Nefesh of the Nefesh. It is Christ in you, he is the one that is ascending.

 

            Even though you have the Christ mind grafted to you at the level of Neshamah, you still have to go back and perfect your behavior, which is Nefesh, you have to perfect your communication, you have to perfect your social skills, that is all in Nefesh, we work on that a lot here.

 

            Then you also have to perfect your Ruach, which is you have to be trained to distinguish between the spirit of Christ and the spirit of Satan. You think everybody that first hears that, they say, well I could tell the difference between Satan and Christ, oh really? Satan is good and evil, can you tell the difference between Satan's goodness and the righteousness of Christ, you cannot.  That is the work on the Ruach, that has to be perfected. The Neshamah is doctrine, you have to be able to discern doctrinal error, you have to be able to distinguish between subtle nuances of doctrine, that has to be rectified.

 

            As I told you the Chayyah is political conscience, world view conscience beyond your own personal conscience.  Yechida is when you are separated from the intimacy of this world, and you could still have relationships with family, but you are not joined in the same way that families are joined, you are separated from them, and you are consecrated unto God. Well it sounds like I am sort of ready to move on to the, because I can say amen to all of these aspects, I was promoted to political conscience about a year and a half ago, and I was promoted to this whatever level of Yechida I am on, about two years ago, sounds like I am almost ready to start moving in the world of Yetzirah, well that is exciting. Praise the Lord, Hallelujah.

 

            The Lord will tell me when I am ready to move on.  All of you listen and all of you judge yourself, where are you? Judge yourself where are you? I think most of you here are still in Nefesh of the Nefesh, but that is not really true either, you have some spirituality here, you do, and you have some level of the mind of Christ if you are understanding this message, and to whatever degree you follow me when we have world conscience discussions, you are all, everyone in this ministry is manifesting on four levels of soul. Can anybody not see that? That you are all manifesting on some level in the first four levels of soul? You are all looking at me, can you see that, you cannot understand that? Can you understand that?  Let us do it again, you are working on your Nefesh, you are working on your communication skills, right, you are working on your behavior.  That is the Nefesh, Ruach is your spirituality. Everybody here at one time or another has intuitive words of knowledge, the spirit moves upon you, right, right?  All of you, you have to have some level of the Neshamah mind of Christ, or you cannot possibly be sitting in these meetings and be in peace. If you did not understand anything I was saying, you would be very uncomfortable and squirming in your seats.  You have to have some level of the Neshamah soul, and you about a year and half ago, the Lord brought me into Chayyah the level of political consciousness, because I was never a political person, about three or four years ago, he brought me into political consciousness, I started listening to the interview programs and becoming interested in world events, and about a year a half ago he brought me into political conscience, where we see the word of the Lord as to how he views things and his opinion of political events in the world.  I know I have taken you up there with me because we have such discussions.

 

            When I take you up there with me, when I share with you what the Lord is showing me, for example, I will say to the Lord, Lord how do you want me to pray about such and such an organization, what is your intention for such and such an organization, for such and such a leader, a political leader, will you allow them to stay in office Lord?  The Lord answers me, that is political conscience, that is an awareness of how Jesus Christ thinks, and what he intends to do concerning political events, nations and leaders of nations.  As I share that with you, at those times you are up there with me and that means that even though you may not be doing on your own at this time, when we are up there as a group, and the Lord is giving us his mind set on political events, that level of soul is touching you and is beginning to be formed in you.  Everybody here is functioning in some level of the first four levels of soul. I believe I am the only one that is operating in Yechida, you are all very involved with your families and I am not saying that in any bad way, it is just a fact, you are all very involved with your families. I was removed from any human intimacy two years ago, I still have friends, I still have relationships, but I am not attached. The Scripture says, Jesus committed himself to no man, because he knew what was in men.  I am not committed to any man, I am committed to Christ in you, but of course the English word committed, I think that is probably a poor English translation, what it means is that Jesus did not have a soul tie with any man. I do not have a soul tie with anyone today. I have spirit ties with people, I have a relationship with Christ in you, you know, but any measure of my relationship with you that is soulish is ruled over by Christ.

 

            You are all a lot further along than I thought you were. When we first started this study I thought you were all in the Nefesh of the Nefesh.  That is good news, right? That is good news. Amen, Hallelujah, good news, but you all understand you are going to have to rectify your Yechida before you can go on to the world of Yetzirah, and you cannot do that yourself, I am just telling you that if you keep on pursuing the Lord, at some point, he is going to break your intimacy with all of your, whoever you intimate with. I do not know how he is going to do it, you know, I have lived alone for a long time, I do not know how he is going to do it when you are still in your families and you have husbands and wives and all that, but I am just giving you the fact, before you can go on to the next world of Yetzirah and become a really spiritual person, you are going to have to experience Yechida down here in Asiyah. Praise the Lord.

 

            Hallelujah, anybody have anything to say? Glory to God, let us go on.  I have just turned the page, we are on page two of section three.  I am reading everything that is here but he is pretty much repeating himself a lot, It is insufficient for him to rectify only the particular place in which his soul root is grounded. As of this present time, I have no information from the Lord, as to how we could determine or if he wants us to determine the place that our soul root is rooted to. I do not know how to judge it.  The whole point is we have to rectify all twenty five cells of the world of Asiyah before we can go on to the Nefesh of the world of Yetzirah, that you do not just rectify the place that you are rooted to, everybody understand that? Everybody understand that?  That is the level in which the Nefesh is rooted.  This is what, remember we are dealing with a translation and a commentary, so the translation of the next passage of the Gate of Reincarnations is, a person must rectify all of the aspects of each level, excluding those that do not pertain to him at all, such as the Mitzvot of the Cohen, even if he is a Yisrael, well there are different kinds of Jews and the Cohen, they are a branch of the tribe of Levi that are anointed to minister in the altar with the services.  Apparently there are certain kinds of prayers and rituals that you do if you are a Cohen, or if you are a Yisrael, I think there is three kinds of Jews, and I do not remember what the third one is, Cohen, Yisrael, and a third one.

 

            We are going to go past that because we are all potentially we are all equal in Christ Jesus because it is not really us that is ascending, it is the Christ who has joined himself to us, that seed of Christ that has joined himself to us and woven himself together with us, that is ascending, and Christ in me is the same as Christ in you, the Christ in me maybe more mature than the Christ in you, but the Christ in you has the same potential as the Christ in me, and the difference between you and me is that the Christ in each of us, has to overcome the soul that he is attached to, and we are not all equal in our soul, we are not all equal in the Nefesh, we are not all equal in the animal personality that we have.  The Christ that is woven together your animal personality, he is equal, but he has a harder time with some of us than with others, can you understand that?  ...Rather, he must rectify all parts of each level as we have mentioned until he is fit to receive the Nefesh of all of Asiyah, and then he can attain his Ruach. Catch those words, until he is fit to receive, but Jesus Christ gives us aspects of soul that we are not fit to receive, but Christ in us is fit to receive, and Christ is woven together with us, so whatever he gets, we get, if we do not kill him. We have to not kill Christ in you, because he is your hope, right?

 

             Rather, he must rectify all parts of each level as we have mentioned until he is fit to receive the Nefesh of all of Asiyah and then he can attain his Ruach of Yetzirah, it is this way with all the worlds. The import of this above mentioned rectification, Hebrew Tikune is that one must be involved with the study of Torah and the performance of Mitzvah or Mitzvot that correspond to all of Asiyah, not just those Mitzvot which correspond to the specific place to which the Nefesh is attached.  Apparently, these Mitzvot, they are prayers and they are deeds that you have to do, there are specific deeds associated with each aspect of the soul. I had a print out of them once, I think I, I know I gave it to you to read, I think we discarded it. I printed it off of the Internet, a whole list of these 235 I believe 235 Mitzvot or good deeds that you are required to do, I would imagine that each one of them symbolizes a particular aspect of purification of our sin nature, but I do not have it anymore. Praise the Lord, thank God we are delivered from this bondage right?

 

            These 613 Mitzvot, now there are positive and negative Mitzvot, the 613 Mitzvot correspond to the various limbs and tendons that make up a human being whose shape represents the structure of the Sefirot in the spiritual realm. Remember the Sefirot, the structure of the Sefirot in the spiritual realm is called Partzuf, right, the Sefirot form Partzuf, or Partzufim, and these Partzufim in the spiritual ream look like they have a humanoid body, but it is an etheric body, it is not solid like this. They are saying that each and every one of these Mitzvot applies to a particular aspect of the human form.  I guess if you have a sickness in a particular part of your body, you do the prayer or the Mitzvot that is associated with that part of the body. This may have worked before Jesus Christ came, maybe God honored it, you know but today, I do not believe he is honoring that anymore, but of course if he is, that is his business, but we have a higher way in Christ Jesus. In the sense that Partzuf refers to the entire human form, each Partzuf consists of 613 limbs and tendons, thus the performance of specific Mitzvot bring rectification to the corresponding parts of the human body and to the corresponding section of the Partzufim and Sefirot. That is what they are saying, the performance of specific actions brings rectification to the corresponding parts of the human body and to the corresponding section of the Partzufim and Sefirot.

 

            I cannot tell you that it does not work, I cannot tell you that do not get healed, I do not think it would work for anyone that is in Christ, I cannot tell you that a Jew or a Kabbalist will not get healed if he prays the required Mitzvot because he has a disease or a deformity in some limb of his body, I do not know that, but I know that we have a better way in Christ. The Talmud has already taught that there are Mitzvot that have special significance for specific people, that is to say, one Mitzvah is important for a particular person and another Mitzvah is significant for a second person.

 

            Nevertheless, in order to advance spiritually, each individual must perform all the Mitzvot that he can, and not content himself with the performance of only those Mitzvot that are significant to him. You are suppose to keep all of these 613 behaviors, thank God we are delivered from that, thank God, and not only are we delivered from it, but they do not work, you cannot be perfected by the keeping of these Mitzvot, you are in all this bondage, what are you in all this bondage for? Jesus said to the Pharisees that even you yourself cannot bear the bondage and put all this bondage on the people, that says to me that God never ordained these rules and laws. These are rules and laws that a religious spirit got on the leaders of the Jewish people. This above mentioned rectification is thus also applicable in the realm of opposing Torah and Mitzvot. What does that mean? This above mentioned rectification is also applicable in the realm of upholding Torah and Mitzvot. I do not know what that means, so let us go on.

 

            Well, it is almost ten o'clock, we will start section four. This is chapter one, section four, entitled "Acquiring Levels Of Soul", so let me remind you that although I have this grid sketched on the board, and although I have agreed that this must be Jacob's ladder, we are not climbing an existing ladder.  We are having levels of soul, or rungs of the ladder added to us, the rungs of the ladder are being added to us according to the Gate of Reincarnations, as we merit it, but we know that Jesus Christ is our righteousness, so we have what may be perceived as a contradiction here, we merit all of these levels of soul because Christ is woven together with our being, nevertheless on the other hand, we must work out our own salvation because, let me start that again, we would not be able to accomplish ascension if Christ was not woven together with us, so we have to respond to the Kabbalistic reincarnation and say we cannot agree with you, you cannot merit ascension, and your only way of ascension is through Christ Jesus. Yet, once Christ Jesus is grafted to you, you have to work at it. What is given to you freely is the potential, but you must work that potential, and then as you work that potential, you get more and more ability in Christ.

 

            There really is a merit system here, does anyone not know what I am talking about, there really is a merit system here, but the merit system is in Christ Jesus, you must understand that difference, that if you do not have Christ grafted to you, there is no merit system that can work for you.  Also one must know that the Holy Spirit is not Christ. You cannot ascend in the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is given so that you can find Christ, the Holy Spirit is the precursor of Christ being grafted to you. The Holy Spirit is the Malkhut of Atzilut, she is the Shekinah, she is the Malkhut of Atzilut, and she is given to you to direct you to Ze'ir Anpin of Atzilut which is Christ Jesus the man.

 

            COMMENT: What level do you think Jesus was born in?

 

            PASTOR VITALE: I do not know, I do not know, if the Lord tells me I will be glad to tell you, obviously very high you know. Did you have a question?

 

            COMMENT: When you were on page two of section three, when you were reading about 613 Mitzvot corresponds...word incomprehensible, well you know what word I got? It seems so funny, acupuncture.

 

            PASTOR VITALE: Acupuncture? Well that is interesting.  There is further in this study, I think it is chapter one, but it was, no it was in another book, I was looking at another book this morning, because I told you that when we complete section seven of chapter one, I am going to give you a separate message and I will reference in this series, but I will give you a separate message where we will go into the study of the Partzufim and the Mochin and Ibur, you pregnancy and the different levels of pregnancy, because all the Partzufim and pregnancy, suckling and adulthood, they are mentioned very briefly in this series, Gate of Reincarnations, but I want to fully apprize you of all of that knowledge, which we will do I believe it is at the end of section seven, because section eight of chapter one starts talking about the Partzufim and pregnancy and all that.  In that magazine that I was studying today for which I will be teaching this message, it shows you the image of a man and all of the nerves and all of the meridians just like you see in the, that they show you in the charts of China's acupuncture, and this writer is a Rabbi who says, that the key that the Chinese talk about is the Nefesh, is the Hebrew Nefesh, and it is the energy of the body, and apparently the Chinese have a lot of knowledge that this particular Rabbi that I study with, anyway agrees with, he himself is studying Kung Fu, I think he is about to become a master.  That is really interesting, I have heard Madame Lavatsky claims that the Chinese came over from the other side of the flood, they seem to have a lot of spiritual knowledge and wisdom, and there are a lot Chinese that are converting to Christianity today, they are very spiritual people.  It is very interesting to see that connection. Praise the Lord.  Anybody else before we go on? Praise God.

 

            We are in chapter one, section four, "Acquiring Levels Of Soul", the relationship of Tikune rectification, Tikune is the Hebrew word, rectification is the English word, the relationship of Tikune rectification to positive and negative Mitzvot, and what parts of each world must be rectified by a particular person in order that he may advance to the next level of soul.  I guess that is what is going to be dealt with in this chapter. Part of the last paragraph of the previous section has been repeated and the paragraphs of this section numbered in order to facilitate or make more easy for you, the explanation of this section.  Going on with the translation now. It is not sufficient to only rectify the particular spot to which his soul is connected. It is not sufficient and here is the commentary now, it not sufficient to only rectify the particular spot to which his soul is connected, rather he must rectify all aspects of each level as we have already mentioned until he marries all of Asiyah, at which time he can achieve his Ruach of Yetzirah, it is this way with all the worlds.

 

            Now, what I am going to do here,  as I have told you, I have gone ahead and read this whole chapter. Now what I just started to read you was referenced as number one and there are four paragraphs here, you will see on page one and two, there are four numbered paragraphs, and after we get past that, actually there is five paragraphs, there is a couple of more pages here, and after we get past that, in section four, if you go forward to section four, you see that there is a review of section three where it is explained in much more detail. I think that I am not going to go out of my way to try to teach you this, because I did not really understand it myself until I studied section four.  We are just going to read through it, I will make whatever little comments I feel led to make, but there is a deep study associated with this section in the following section. Is everybody all right?  I do not know if we will go on to section five tonight, I will see, I mean I will see how I feel, I am getting a little tired, I think if I feel that I could still be productive, and if I feel that you are following me, I may continue on, but if I am too tired and I feel that I cannot give it everything that I am suppose to give it, we will put this off until next week.

 

            We are just going to continue to read through now in section four. This one, paragraph one was really a repeat from the section before that, that you cannot just rectify the one particular spot, you have to rectify the whole section.  Now paragraph two, this means that one must be involved with the study of Torah and the doing of her Mitzvot. Now that is what we do here, we are involved with the study of Torah.

 

            You cannot just be doing this Kabbalistic work, you have to also be having studies in the Bible which the Lord gives us studies in the Bible too from time to time. You have to be involved in the study of the Torah, and the doing of her Mitzvot, and we know that the Mitzvot have spiritualized, that we are looking at our sins, and we are resisting our sins, we are recognizing them, and resisting them and we are rejecting them in preference of the comparable aspect of that behavior which is in righteous Christ Jesus, that is the Mitzvot that we do. We are not just making the surface of the platter clean, we are cleaning the inside. Likewise if a person sins and blemishes a particular spot in Asiyah, even though it is not the place to which his Nefesh is attached, he must rectify it.  We are told here that it is possible to sin and blemish a spot in the world where your Nefesh is not attached. Now I do not know what to tell you about that, I have to, if the Lord does not give me revelation on that, I honestly do not know what to say, because I do not even know how to tell where my soul is attached, and even if I knew how to tell where my soul or where your soul is attached, I do not know what it means to commit, well I do know, I guess the Lord is telling me I do know, in other words, if it is revealed that your soul that is attached to the Neshamah of the Nefesh which is the mind of Christ, and even though that is where you come from that place and you get involved in some kind of sexual sin which is a lower place, that would be the Nefesh of the Nefesh,  you still have to purify the Nefesh of the Nefesh even though your soul is not rooted there, you have to make good, because when you sin, you blemish or you dirty the soul, that is what the word blemish means.

 

            There is a fruit of the sin that corrupts your soul, and you have to make it right. I have no problem with that, you know, no matter how high up you are, I mean I sin all the time, and wherever I am, I am higher than anybody that I know, but wherever I am, I sit in other areas all the time. The one thing I can think of is the Lord has told me to not watch mafia movies and I liked the Godfather, that may sound silly to you, but the Lord told me that the people who love these mafia movies, that what is manifesting in you and in me is an envy of evil.  I could look at this movie as much as I enjoy it and I could tell you that I admire power, but This is an evil power.  What is drawing me to that movie, I like watching that movie.  there is something in my heart that is drawing me to a manifestation of power that is not in Christ. Well Pastor Vitale what is the big deal about that? Everything that is not Christ is sin. I am just telling you this as a way of showing you how even though you could be rooted in a high spiritual level, you can be tempted to partake of something that you should not be partaking of, and we are told that, that blemish is your soul, and that you have to rectify it, well how do you rectify that? Well the first thing you have to do is repent and stop doing it, and turn away from it, I guess, I am just pushing my way through this teaching as the Lord helps me, bear with me please.

 

            Does everybody understand that, any questions about what I just said?  I feel to say it again, you could be on a very high spiritual level, you could be moving in the Christ centered Kabbalah and very high doctrine and then something could come along and catch your eye, you could be tempted to envious of somebody, come down to that low level and not resist the envy in your heart.

 

            The fact that you are rooted in a higher level does not mean that it is impossible for you to sin on a lower level, and well, I am not going to get into that yet. Well I will tell you this much, you will find as we go on with these lessons that what the teaching is, that as we ascend, thinking of these levels of soul and the rungs of a ladder, as we ascend, we pull up the ladder behind us. Did you ever see that in a cartoon? I have seen that in a cartoon, where some, Daffy Duck or somebody is climbing up a ladder and he is pulling up the ladder behind him? Have you ever seen anything like that?

 

            Yeah, so long as we are in this world of Asiyah, now please forgive my you know my indecision as I tell you all the time, I teach you as I study, I do not know whether it is the whole world of Asiyah or whether it is the Nefesh of Asiyah, I do not know, but we have to ascend above this place where the klipot are, I just talked about that earlier, that as soon as we ascend out from this place where the klipot are life will be much easier for us. It must be the whole world of Asiyah, I think it is the whole world of Asiyah. As we ascend through the world of Asiyah, we have to pull up the levels of soul behind ourselves because, let us say for example, we rectify the whole of the Nefesh and we move on to the Ruach, where no longer according to the Kabbalistic teaching, we are no longer living out of the Nefesh, we are living out of the Ruach. Look it is just another way of me telling you, you have to stop living out of your carnal mind and you have to start living out of Christ.

 

            Well, when you start living out of Christ, what happens to your carnal mind, it is still there,  and it is still there and as long as we are in this low plane where all these evil entities are, your carnal mind will be attacked when you live out of Christ. Now that is the doctrine of Christ, I have been teaching that for years, that Christ Jesus ascends into the left side of the heart center, and your soul is down in the third center in the belly, and Satan is attacking your soul, trying to get you to sin, do you remember that? Remember me teaching that? We learned that years ago. Well that is what they are telling us in this Gate of Reincarnations, that you have to take your soul with you or you would have to raise up your carnal mind with you so long as you are in this unclean realm, because all the entities will be attacking and misusing that other part of you.

 

            However we are told in the Gate of Reincarnations that once you pierce through this level of Asiyah and once you get into the world of the Ruach, you do not have that problem anymore, because there is no, well, I thought I told you that the world of the Ruach is the astral plane where the evil entities are, please forgive me if I am, and just go with the spiritual principles that I am telling, if I am confusing these details, please do not get hung up on it, but go with the spiritual principles. Once you get past this place where the klipot are,  and I believe whatever the next world is you know, I do not know maybe the klipot are in the Ruach or in the Yetzirah of Asiyah, I do not know, I do not have it down pat yet, once you get out of that place where the klipot are, and I will have the correct details for you when we get to that place in the text, I do not know where I read it right now, does anybody not know what I am talking about? I do not want to even stop to take the time to find where I read it. Once you get to that place where you pass out of the world of the klipot are, then let us say you are in the world of Yetzirah, I may have the wrong name.  Let us say you are in the world of Yetzirah, and you completely rectify the Nefesh of Yetzirah, and now you are in the Ruach of Yetzirah. You do not have to take the Nefesh up with you because there is no klipot in that world.  It is safe enough to leave the Nefesh behind you, then when you ascend in to the Neshamah of Yetzirah, you can leave the Ruach of Yetzirah behind you, because there is no klipot there that are going to use that against you. Does anybody not understand what I just said?  You leave, according to Kabbalistic reincarnation, according to Isaac Luria, as you ascend to higher levels, you literally shed levels of soul and just leave them there and do not use them anymore, and Isaac Luria says, and it is these shed levels of soul that you do not use anymore that have been rectified that go forth and will enter into other human beings, seeking to improve themselves and to help them learn Kabbalah and to serve God.

 

            That is the teaching of Isaac Luria, I will receive it as long as I do not have any rejection of it in my spirit, I receive it unless the Lord brings a correction on that, and as you all know, and I put that testimony on this tape, something entered into me and from that day forward, I was able to understand...(End of Tape two)

 

           

 

Tape 3

 

            After I was enlightened which was virtually immediately after this entity entered into me and enlightened my understanding, I realized how completely inadequate my understanding of the tree of life had been up until that point.  According to Lurianic Kabbalah, that which entered into me would have been a rectified aspect of soul of someone who had ascended much higher and shed or left this rectified element of soul behind, that they go forth to help human beings. Brethren, I want to tell you that if this was not my experience, I would never believe this. I want to tell you, if I heard someone preaching this, and it was not my experience, I would say run for your life, this person is crazy, but it happened to me, and you all know, all of you here, and those of you who listen to my tapes, you all know that I told you about it, well I do not know if it got on this tape, but I told everybody here, I told you all about it six months before I found out what happened to me. I told you that it happened to me, I told you what I saw and what I experienced, so it is happening to me.

 

            Nobody can take your experience away from you, it is the same thing with an experience of salvation, these Jewish people, they are going to have to have a personal experience with Jesus Christ, just like I was, I happened to be studying in my bed at that time, I remember exactly what happened, I was studying in my bed and I saw this it was I do not even want to try to, I saw something through the corner of my eye, it was very fast and it entered into me, scared me half to death. I would never believe it, these Jews, they are going to have to have a similar experience,  they are going to have to have an experience with Jesus Christ that they cannot deny. However he is going to manifest to them, it will be something similar to what happened to Paul, you just cannot deny your experience, you can fight with me, all the Rabbis in the world can fight with me if they want to, and I will not get anywhere with them, and they will not get anywhere with me, but when it happens to you, it happens to you.  They are going to have to have their experience, this is how I am learning Kabbalah, I tell you openly, everybody listening to this tape or reading this transcript, if you are uncomfortable with what I am saying here and you want to do what is in your own best interest, you pray to Jesus Christ for a witness to what I am saying. You say, Lord if this is the truth help me to believe it, and if it is not the truth, save my life, you pray that prayer, I am not afraid of you praying that prayer, because I know what I am preaching is of God, you pray that prayer.

 

            I would never believe this stuff if it was not happening to me, praise the Lord, Hallelujah.  Let us go on. Even though a person's Nefesh comes from a specific place in the world of Asiyah, he is still responsible to acquire every level of Asiyah, the Nefesh, the Ruach, the Neshamah, the Chayyah and the Yechida of Asiyah, as we have learned at the end of the previous section. Likewise, if he commits a sin that affects a part of Asiyah to which his soul is not particularly connected, he is responsible to rectify the blemish, since he is expected to acquire that level as well on his way to attaining Ruach of Yetzirah. In other words, if you are deeply into Christ and you have some slip, you yield to envy or whatever, you cannot just ignore it and say, Oh I never do that, it was just that one time and I am going to forget about it, it is essential to the whole process of ascension that you face what manifested in your heart, that you truly repent and ask the Lord to forgive you and then in the case of envy, you would have to pray for the person, I know when that happens to me I break the curses on them and I bless them in every way I know how, that is how I rectify that sin. If you ignore it, you have not rectified the sin, and from what I could see, if you are just having trouble ascending, you may not even know why you are having trouble ascending. Once you do not deal with it immediately, you forget about it, and then you have to go through a whole process of praying and whatever else, that to ask the Lord to reveal to you what is blocking you.  You have to deal with it immediately, and if you do not think you have any envy, you are deceived, because envy is a part of the fallen nature, it is a foundational sin common to all men, and it is not a potential, it is a sin that manifests in your mind and in your heart if you are willing to look at it and believe it, it is there.  Envy has nothing to do with logic, it is just amazing the things that envy will arise in me over, and I will look at these sins in my heart and say, Lord that is crazy, I do not even want that thing, that I should be envious of that person, I do not want what they have, I would not change places with them for anything in the world, but I am parts, and the part of me that is saying that, I do not even want that, that is true, but there is another part of me, it is Satan in the unconscious part of my mind that is injecting thoughts of envy into my mind, hoping to convince my conscious mind to say, amen, I am envious.

 

            You have to be divided, you have to be separated from your sin nature to see that there are different parts of you that are functioning, but if the part of you that truly is not the least bit interested in what that person has, that part of you does not resist the part of you that is trying to get you to want what that person has, because sin is a seduction. The thoughts of Satan arise in your mind trying to seduce you to desire what someone else has.  If the part of you that really does not want it, does not stand up and resist the part of you that is trying to seduce you to want it, at some point, the seducing part of you is going to cause a sin, that will cause you to reap what that sin has sown, it is a part of you, that wickedness is a part of you. If you do not stamp it out, slap it down and stamp it out, you will reap the fruit of envy even though you really are not even interested in what that person has. Do you understand what I am telling you? Do you understand what I am telling you? Praise the Lord. Glory to God.

 

            Likewise if he commits a sin that affects a part of Asiyah to which his soul is not particularly connected, he is responsible to rectify the blemish, I think I read this already, since he is expected to acquire that level as well on his way to attaining Ruach of Yetzirah. Paragraph three, however, if another Nefesh failed to perform a specific Mitzvah, that is the singular of Mitzvot, Mitzvah, however if another Nefesh failed to perform a specific Mitzvah from the world of Asiyah or sinned and blemished something in the world of Asiyah, this does not obligate him to rectify the missing Mitzvah or the blemish caused by the sin of the other Nefesh. If they are both from the same place however, then this is not the case as we will explain later on with God's help.

 

            Now I did not understand that at all, when I went on to section four, which I believe is the next section, it explains, section four is an explanation of this, let me just get my numbers straight here, I am sorry that my memory is not any better than it is, yes, we are working on section three now. Section four explains section three and section four will tell us that this paragraph, number three in section three is talking about two souls occupying the same body.

 

            Now, I do not have any knowledge of that yet, even when we get to section four, well, even here in the paragraph it said, however this is not the case as we will explain later on with God's help, so this concept of two souls occupying one body is a principle that Isaac Luria teaches. I do not have any understanding of it at this time, I have not, I think I have read through three chapters already either it did not cleave to me when I read it, or it is not explained until chapters, beyond chapter three. I do not know what this means to have two souls in one body you know, but it should be interesting to hear about it. I am not going to put too much stock in this paragraph three because I do not know what he is talking about.  Let us just go on. Though this will be explained in a later chapter, it can be... so we are talking about the two souls in the one body, this is the comment,  what I just read to you was the translation and now here is the comment by the translator, though this will be explained in a later chapter, it can be said here briefly that there are times when more than one soul occupies a single body. If the souls originate from the same root, then they share a common responsibility and need for Tikune, that is the Hebrew word for rectification. However if they do not come from the same root, then the deficiency or sin of one Nefesh does not necessitate the other to be part of the rectification process.

 

            What we are being told here is that it is possible for two souls to incarnate in a body and there is a difference in their relationship concerning sin, concerning whether or not they both come from the same root. If they do not come from the same root, then if one soul sins, the other soul does not have to make rectification for it. However if they come from the same root, if one soul sins, the other soul has to make rectification also.  As I told you, I do not have anymore information on this, this should be very interesting, I cannot even conceive of, to me a soul is a personality, how do you have two personalities occupying one body, short of having multiple personalities which I do not think that, that is what this is talking about.  We will just wait until we find the explanation for it.

 

            Paragraph four, alternatively it is possible that the concept of Tikune rectification applies only to blemishes resulting from sin and not from the lack of performance of any of the 248 positive commandments.  I believe what this is saying is that this number of 631, that some of them are positive commandments and others are negative commandments. In other words, some are thou shalt not, and others are thou shalt.  What we are being told here in paragraph number four, is that, concerning the commandments or the Mitzvot that say thou shalt not, let me read this again. This applies only to blemishes resulting from sin. If the commandment is thou shalt not and you do it anyway, that is a sin, and not from the lack of performance of the 248 positive commandments.

 

            There are 248 commandments that say, you shall do this, you shall wash your hands before you eat, you shall not mix milk and flesh, commandments saying, you should not do this, that if you fail to comply with these commandments, it is not a sin, that is what they are saying here.  You will see when we get to chapter four that this is a controversy and a question, so the discussion in chapter four will clarify it, I do not have it deep enough in my spirit right now to do it out of my own spirit, although I did spend some time studying this, this morning. Let me just read this again, alternatively it is possible that the concept of Tikune rectification applies only to blemishes resulting from overt sin, something that you do that is wrong, but that Tikune rectification is not necessary if you just fail to do the 248 positive commandments, if you fail to put on the tefilin, if you fail to say a certain prayer, that, that does not produce a blemish that needs to be rectified, I do not understand that, but that is what it says. Paragraph five, or the following is possible and it is the correct interpretation.

 

            Let us say that a soul is from the Malkhut of the Nukvah of Asiyah called the Nefesh of Asiyah. If you take the tenth Sefirot called Malkhut and subdivide it into ten Sefirot, it becomes a Partzuf called Asiyah, this is getting pretty complicated. I would have to put this on the board for you, I do not know if I want to go on. I think my mind is giving out, I will read you the paragraph but I do not think you will be able to follow it. If you take the tenth Sefirot called Malkhut and subdivide it into ten Sefirot, it becomes a Partzuf called Asiyah. Now that is a Partzuf we have never heard about.  Do you hear this, if you take the tenth Sefirot called Malkhut and subdivide into ten Sefirot, those ten sub-Sefirot under Malkhut have a name, it is called Asiyah, it is a Partzuf, let me put it on the board for you.

 

            Drawing #5, we have on the board what is called the general structure of the tenth Sefirot,  and Malkhut, the tenth Sefirah is broken down into another ten Sefirot which is called a subset, this subset from Keter to Malkhut is a subset of the Malkhut of the general structure of the Sefirot, and then we have the Malkhut of the subset or the Malkhut of the Malkhut, it is broken down into another subset of ten Sefirot, this is called the subset of the subset of the general structure of the ten Sefirot.

 

            Now this is the condition of a soul, it is possible for your soul to be in this condition, where the soul is living out of the Malkhut of the subset of the subset of the general ten Sefirot. Do not knock yourself out, this is very confusing, it is in the text so we are going to look at it, I would not knock myself out. Now the name or the way this Malkhut of the subset of the subset of Malkhut is called, the name that it is called by or the way it is identified is, the Malkhut of the Malkhut, well first of all, this, I did not tell you this, I am sorry, the subset of the Malkhut of the general structure of the ten Sefirot is a Partzuf, these ten, these ten Sefirot which are the subset of the Malkhut of the general structure, is a Partzuf called Asiyah, and that gets confusing because there is a world of Asiyah too, so we have a Partzuf called Asiyah and a world called Asiyah. Now what we are doing right now is we are naming the Malkhut of the subset of the subset of the Malkhut of the general structure and this is what she is called, she is called what I just said, the Malkhut of the Malkhut of Asiyah. The Malkhut of the Malkhut of the Partzuf, Asiyah, she is also called the Malkhut of the Nukvah of Asiyah because Malkhut and Nukvah are interchangeable, what is the difference between Malkhut and Nukvah, does anybody know? Does anybody remember?  Go ahead.

 

            COMMENT: Nukvah is called a Partzuf.

 

            PASTOR VITALE: Nukvah is a Partzuf. Right, Nukvah is the personality  associated with Malkhut.  You could say, the Malkhut of the Malkhut of Asiyah, and you could say the Malkhut of the Nukvah of Asiyah, or you could say, the Nefesh of Asiyah, that is what we are told, the Nefesh, I do not even understand that myself. It is pretty obvious from the diagram on the board that this Malkhut down at the bottom of the board is called the Malkhut of the Malkhut of Asiyah, we can all see that. We can also see that it is called the Malkhut of the Nukvah of Asiyah, because Malkhut and Nukvah are interchangeable right?  It is not so easy to understand how this Malkhut can be called the Nefesh of Asiyah.  Now, this subset of the general ten Sefirot is a Partzuf called Asiyah, and Nukvah, do you remember earlier in this message we had a chart, I do not know what drawing number it is, but it tells us that the Malkhut and Nukvah are interchangeable, and the Nefesh, Asiyah, Malkhut, and Nukvah de 'Zer Anpin are all interchangeable.

 

            Malkhut can also be called Nefesh, are you all following me on that? They are all interchangeable, Nefesh, Asiyah, Malkhut, and Nukvah, are all terms that are interchangeable and what the Kabbalists do, I have seen this in another series that we taught, it is very confusing but they drop one of the terms, and by saying the Nefesh of Asiyah, the Nefesh of Asiyah, they are just dropping this extra Malkhut, they could say the Nefesh of the Nefesh of Asiyah, but they just drop one, and when I first found this Kabbalistic practice, when we were studying the Tree of Life, it really was upsetting me and the Lord had to tell me that, that was my pride, you know. I was all confused with the Rabbis teachings, and I think at one point I was actually annoyed and the Lord had to rebuke me on that, because when you study with somebody, and sometimes you all try and do that to me, and I had to repent of doing that, you have to come up to the level of the teacher that you are studying under, and if you cannot understand something that, that teacher is saying, you have to ask the Lord to help you to come up there. Now I have heard in this ministry from time to time in a particular one person is always trying to pull my teaching down to a lower level, saying, well the people will not understand it, you should come down to a lower level.

 

            No, I should not come down to a lower level, anybody who wants to study with me has to come up to my level. I am not coming down and making it baby food for people, if you cannot hack it you should not be here. If you have a question, you come and ask me. If you are having a problem with it, I will pray for you, but do not ask me to come down to your level, you have to come up where I am, this is not a baby place, this advanced mature study. You have to rise up to the level of the school or you do not belong here, it is as simple as that.  That is what these Kabbalists do, I personally even at this stage of the game find that very confusing, almost to the point that if I would let myself, I would get upset over it, because I tend to get upset when I cannot understand things, but that is what they do.  How am I going to handle it? I am going to say, Lord please help me to ascend to this level of understanding that these Kabbalists have such a developed brain that it does not confuse them, but they take this short cut, instead of saying the Malkhut of the Nukvah of Asiyah, instead of saying the Nefesh of the Nefesh of Asiyah, they just say the Nefesh of Asiyah, and by the context of the whole paragraph, you and I have to decide whether it is this Malkhut in the first subset or the Malkhut in the second subset,  when the Kabbalist calls this the Nefesh of Asiyah, we do not know. The people are demanding that institutions lower their standards to accommodate the people rather than demanding excellence that the people should study and pray and do whatever they have to do to rise up to the standard, and colleges and universities and police departments and fire departments, they are all lowering their standards, and that mentality if that is how you think, and we have that in this ministry, if that is how you think, you need to know that, that thought process in your mind is an aspect of the mark of the beast, Christ requires and enables us to arise to excellence. Christ does not bring down standards.

 

Praise the Lord.  We are still reading these comments on paragraph five here, on page three of section three. A person has to rectify his five roots in the five Partzufim of Asiyah. His five roots in the five Partzufim of Asiyah, well where are the five Partzufim of Asiyah? This is very complicated, I am just going to read it off and explain it to the best of my ability, if you cannot understand it, I would not worry about it. What the text is talking about here is someone whose soul is at the level of the subset of the subset of Malkhut, that is the general structure of ten Sefirot as we explained with drawing number 5, but here in drawing number 6, we have shown the Partzuf Asiyah, broken down into the five Partzuf of the Partzuf, Asiyah, there are Partzufim within Partzufim.

 

            The Partzuf Asiyah has five Partzufim within it, and the text that we are reading or we are dealing with right now says, he will have to rectify the soul that exists at this level of the subset of the subset of the tenth Sefirah Malkhut within the general structure of ten Sefirot, he will have to rectify all of the Malchuyot, that is the plural of Malkhut, all of the Malchuyot of the Ruach and the Neshamah and the Chayyah, and the Yechida of Asiyah. I have not broken that down on the board for you, and I do not intend to do it, but the Ruach, the Neshamah, the Chayyah and the Yechida of Asiyah, now if you go back to your chart that we struggled with earlier today, the Ruach of Asiyah is equal to Ze'ir Anpin and the I am trying to read the exact words here, this person will have to rectify the Malkhut of the Ruach of Asiyah, and the Ruach of Asiyah is Ze'ir Anpin.

 

            Remember these words are interchangeable.  Ze'ir Anpin even though we are told Ze'ir Anpin is Chesed through Yesod.  Within that Partzuf there are ten, another ten full Sefirot. I am getting confused myself at this. The person who is at this level of soul has to locate the his root in Ze'ir Anpin and rectify that, and he has to locate his root in Binah, he has to rectify the root in Neshamah, and the Neshamah is associated with Imma, mother, so he has to find his root in Imma, and he has to find his root in the Chayyah, and in the Yechida. He has to find his root in Abba, and in Arik Anpin, and he has to, and each of those Partzufim, he has to break them down into the ten Sefirot, and rectify Malkhut in that Partzuf. I do not even know what that means myself. The only thing that I could tell you at this time is that, when we rectify aspects of our soul, we have to go as deep as the Lord Jesus Christ anoints us to go into the depths of the unconscious part of our mind.

 

            I told you earlier on this message, I do not know how to break down the conscious, subconscious, and unconscious parts of the mind into five levels, I do not know how to do it, but most likely what is coming now, is that there are just within the unconscious there is probably just deeper and deeper levels of the unconscious, I just do not know how to break it down.  We have to go deeper and deeper and deeper, and I expect at least what is coming to me now, I remember that this message has been largely by the spirit of revelation because, let me remind you that when Kabbalists teach, they have a text like this, and any Kabbalist would tell you, you should not be doing this yourself, you should be studying with a teacher, because it takes the teacher to explain the words, and our teacher is the glorified Jesus Christ, as he speaks through me.  I have studied this text to the best of my ability before I came out here this morning, and the Lord Jesus Christ is giving us the revelation on it, so this has been a very difficult message for me, and I just ask you to hang in there with me, as I stumble, because it is very difficult preaching by revelation like this, a lot of what I told you tonight, I never heard of before, and I am going to have to listen to these tapes myself, because if I do not, when a message comes forth by revelation, if I do not study the tape

 

 myself, it never gets into my own soul and forget it, because I am not the one who said it, in this case, I am just like you sitting in this meeting, if I do not listen to this tape and get it down deep inside of me, I will not retain it.  What is coming to me now is that there are just deeper and deeper depths of the unconscious part of the mind and as we get into the true depths of the unconscious part of the mind, we start getting into previous incarnations. We start getting into the blemishes of previous incarnations. Now I have had a touch of that in my career if you want to call it that, as this minister of Christ, on only several occasions in twenty five years, the Lord has opened my spiritual vision to events of either a past life or events of an ancestor, and of course we are our ancestors, that was causing a problem in a particular person's life, and when that person repented on behalf of their ancestor, the bondage was broken, that has happened several times. In one case the person's ancestor was a foreman of someone who is, I do not know what the right word is, but he worked on a slave plantation and he was the man who beat the slaves and if they did not work, and he was a very cruel man, and the Lord let me see that in the spirit, so that was going into very deep levels of the unconscious, levels of the mind, you know, and I just have to believe that the Lord will clarify these issues to me as I continue to study them, because I certainly do not have all the information that I would like to have. I do not know how to identify the different levels of the unconscious part of the mind, but I remind you that there is a part of us called our immortal soul that reincarnates. The personality does not reincarnate, the body is not rising from the dead. It is not our physical bones that are rising from the dead, but there is a root inside of us, there is a seed inside of us, that nine tenths of what we are dies when the physical body dies, and there is just that spiritual seed, that tenth that goes on from generation to generation, and each time that tenth incarnates, it takes on a new personality and new physical body, but that seed that goes from generation to generation is having experiences and is trying to grow up into a full grown man in Christ, which is impossible until that seed joins to the Savior, Jesus Christ.

 

            This seed has been going on for generations of incarnations trying to work its way out of hell, but we know it is impossible, because every time you sin, you have to come back and rectify your sin, and it is an endless loop, it never stops until you join to Jesus Christ who drags you up by a hair. Praise the Lord. I just had a very interesting thought, I have always wondered about that Scripture in New Testament which says, the woman that brought Jesus the alabaster box filled with spices that she washed his feet with her hair, I remember praying and saying, Lord what in the world is the significance of that, surely that does not make any sense in the natural at all. Now the feet signify the carnal mind, and the hair signifies the spirit of the woman, and what that means, what is coming to me right now is that the feet, well the carnal mind of Jesus Christ was completely under the authority of his Christ mind, at this point in the picture he was already God.  This is the whole concept of a Savior, he has experienced the same things that we have experienced, he was man in the days of his flesh.

 

            This woman, her human spirit attached to the carnal mind of Jesus Christ which was already underneath his Christ mind and had ceased from sin. Our humanity which has not ceased from sin is latching on to that human aspect, whatever is left of it at this point, God only knows, I do not have all the answers, our sinful humanity is latching on to the aspect of the glorified Jesus Christ or the aspect of Christ Jesus in us, that is human, and by latching on to that aspect of Christ Jesus in us that is human, because that human aspect in Christ Jesus is completely rectified, completely ceased from sin because of its union with the Christ, by our human spirit latching on to that human element, we come under that cover of righteousness, did I make that clear, does anyone not know what I am talking about?  When she washed his feet with her hair, it meant that her spirit joined to his humanity, and by joining to his humanity that was under the righteous cover of the Christ in him, she came under the righteous cover of the Christ in him.

 

            Oh, I love this, I just love it.  Whenever you hear something like that in the Scripture you have to know it is a parable, that does not make any sense that some woman came in and spilled spices all over him and washed his feet with her hair, I mean that does not make any sense at all, does that make any sense, it just does not. You have to realize the more bazaar a statement is in the Scripture, the more likely it is a metaphor. I even wonder about any alabaster box that she broke over him, maybe it is true, maybe it was not, but what that says to me is that she came in with a broken spirit, with a repentant heart, her carnal mind was broken and she was seeking true salvation from the master, and that was what she poured over him, repentance is a beautiful, beautiful spirit, a spirit of repentance is a blessing to anyone that is trying to help you, it is a great glorious spirit.  That is what we are talking about, rectifying this level of soul and it is confusing me so I can imagine that it must be confusing you, and this is what the text says, you will have to rectify all the Malchuyot, or the Malkhut of each of these levels of soul that I have marked out for you there. A person has to rectify his five roots in the five Partzufim, in other words, if your soul is rooted in Malkhut, you have to rectify the Malkhut of the Nukvah, you have to rectify the Malkhut of Ze'ir Anpin, you have to rectify the Malkhut of Imma, of Abba, and of Arik Anpin.  Again, I do not know how to tell you how to distinguish between the Malkhut of all these Partzufim.

 

            The Lord has given us some information tonight about the rectification of different aspects of your soul, you know of rectifying behavioral sin, rectifying communication errors, rectifying pride that will rise up against authority, that is all the Nefesh of the Nefesh, rectifying spiritual things, being able to distinguish between the mind of Christ and Satan, rectifying the Neshamah, the ability to discern false doctrine, and correct it,  it is not just enough to recognize the false doctrine, to completely rectify your Neshamah, you have to be able to correct false doctrine, etc, etc, but when these levels of Sefirot break down into subsets of subsets of subsets at this present time I do not have any information as to what these fine nuances of rectification of your soul would be, except that the Lord has told us tonight that he goes deeper and deeper into the unconscious part of your mind, and what is the unconscious part of your mind? It is motive. He goes deeper and deeper into the sources of our motives.

 

            Now, over the years I have heard all kinds of things from the congregation here, I have heard statements such as there is no motive, I just did it. No you are mistaken, you may be blind, deaf, and dumb as to what your motive was, but there is always a motive, you are just not looking at it.  Then I have heard you know denial of motive, we have gone through a lot together, we have been through a lot here, but you need to know that every word you speak, everything you do, every thought you say arises out of a motive that comes up out of the unconscious part of your mind, and the fact that you are blind to it does not mean that it does not exist, and even more so if you in Christ, and I would expect everyone listening to this message or reading this transcript is in Christ, that motive that is arising out of the unconscious part of your mind is your enemy. That is death dwelling in you, at some point you must recognize the enemy within and start to fight it, that is death speaking to you, that is the Serpent in the Garden speaking to Eve, trying to destroy you and bring you down from whatever place Christ has raised you up to, and to keep you in bondage in this world. That voice that you hear, that thought that you have is not your friend, and you must ask yourself why you are defending the Serpent within you, and I condemn you not, I am just trying to get you all going. You have got to ask yourself why you are defending the Serpent within you.

 

            You are the Garden, each one of us is a Garden, Adam is in here, the woman is in here, and the Serpent is in there. Why are you doing what happened at the beginning of time? Why are you repeating the mistake of the woman? You are here in this incarnation to rectify the sin of the woman, and every time the Serpent whispers to you and you speak her words, you have, and I am not condemning you, please I am not, I am just telling you the truth, every time the Serpent whispers in your mind and you do what she tells you, you think what she tells you to think or you speak what she tells you to speak, you have failed to rectify the sin of the woman, and that is what you are doing here, that is what your purpose is. You are here to rectify the sin of the woman and you are repeating it, there is nothing new under the sun, you are repeating it over and over again.  Wake up, brethren, wake up church, wake up and stop agreeing with the Serpent, because all you are doing is shooting yourself in the foot, and aside from that, there is a higher conscience here, if you want to look at this from a level of Chayyah, there is a much higher level of conscience than you shooting yourself in the foot, and you failing to accomplish your purpose for being in this incarnation, you have a higher purpose. Everybody that is studying at this level, you are called to be the saviors that come forth from Mount Zion.

 

            There are thousands of people waiting to be helped by you. Now I am not here to put a guilt trip on you, I am trying to get you up on your feet,  let us get going, let us rectify, let us rectify the error that was made in the Garden that has brought disaster and pain and torment and trouble upon trillions of people. You know it was brought to my attention yesterday that in the Philippines it is very common that young girls are taken at twelve years old and put in brothels, their parents sell them. There are terrible things that go on in this world brethren, terrible, terrible things, and all I could do, my heart breaks when I hear something like that, that is horrible for me, and I ask the Lord, what if anything can we do at this stage and there was no answer. We have to stand up, and we have to acquire a mind that is so strong that we could put a stop to that, right from this very room.

 

            We have tremendous opportunity to reverse the error that was made in the Garden, we have a tremendous opportunity, I do not believe that the Lord will condemn anyone who does not attain, I do not condemn anyone who does not attain, but would you not rather attain?  There are terrible evils in this world brethren, and most people do not think about them because who could bear it? It would be wrong for me to walk around upset everyday about the twelve year old girls that are put in brothels, that would hinder me from doing what I am suppose to be doing here.
