Clea'
This article is not a teaching of Scripture. It's just an interesting situation that came about.
In my opinion (and my opinion only), GOD’S election may run into problems until they realize that they are of GOD’S seven thousand, the election. The reason being that we are predestined to come to the TRUTH in this age and that we have a destiny to stand against satan at the end time. The devil, in my opinion has no reason to put his resources on those he already has deceived, so it’s more likely he will go after the election.
Although GOD does protect us, we may get into trouble by our own lack of knowledge. We are flesh and we may sin just as anyone, and our empathy for others may work together in that we may get ourselves into trouble. The result being that we will be taken advantage of and picked on by bad spirits until we realize who we are. It can be a lonely feeling.
Once we realize who we are and realize that we have power over all of our enemies (including evil spirits) and start using that power, then not only does our wisdom grow in GOD’S WORD, but peace begins to settle in when we cast that evil back to where it came from in the Name of JESUS CHRIST.
(Luke 10:17) And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name.
(Luke 10:18) And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.
(Luke 10:19) Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
(Luke 10:20) Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.
(Luke 10:21) In that hour Jesus rejoiced in spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes: even so, Father; for so it seemed good in thy sight.
(Luke 10:22) All things are delivered to me of my Father: and no man knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and he to whom the Son will reveal him.
(Luke 10:23) And he turned him unto his disciples, and said privately, Blessed are the eyes which see the things that ye see:
(Luke 10:24) For I tell you, that many prophets and kings have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them.
The point of this article is that we may feel alone when others do things that hurt us. And why do they hurt us? Because they can. The election is here in flesh at the end time. I believe that the one third of GOD’S children that rebelled against GOD in the previous age are also here in flesh at the end time.
So, you can see why it may turn out to be a lonely feeling to us; because we can’t understand why people would do selfish things and cause pain, all because they can (not to mention the bad spirits involved). Clea’ is a song that came to me which kind of testifies to the loneliness and emptiness of those times. You see, we don't love this world. We long for JESUS to return, even before we know who we are. Take a look at the Post called "CHRIST Like" and notice the personalities listed. You may notice that some, if not all of the personality types listed in that Post match your own.
The interesting thing is that the name “Clea’” means “Glory”. And all the while I was thinking about the election when this song came to me, it turns out to correlate to Ephesians, chapter one. The particular verse is Ephesians 1:12:
(Ephesians 1:12) That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ.
We are here at the end time and we have a destiny, and once we learn that destiny and why we have that destiny, it all begins to make sense. It’s because we First trusted in CHRIST, before the foundatiion of the world. The song may not match every person of the election, but it came to me in that context. So, this post is not a teaching of Scripture, just something that came to me.
We are overcomers and we have a job to do. That is our destiny. For more information on this job and why we have it, read the posts:
“The PREDESTINED [Part One]”
“The PREDESTINED [Part Two]”
To see the post and hear the song, watch the video “Clea’”, but don’t expect to hear a good voice or music. It’s the words that matter.
Clea'
Clea', it's over now. Take your rest Don’t hide anymore.
Clea', you’ve done your best, you've kept yourself, and others safe.
Clea’ it’s over now, take your rest don't cry no more.
Spend your time with some new friends and build your house like your dreams before.
Trust us, and be around, you will find a happier sound.
No more lonely days and nights and fear filled your heart, you have helped us come around, we can help you now.
Try, try to let it go, no more crying, no more fear.
Try, try to open your heart again. There,, are those who will be your friend, and fear no more.
Clea', you have our trust, You can trust,, in us.
-No more rainy nights. No more lonely fights. It will be alright, You’ve found your way home.
Clea',, it's over now, Take your rest,
find it somehow.
Sabbath means Rest, AND JESUS became our Passover.
Passover is the Highest Sabbath
(1 Corinthians 5:7) Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us:
The word "Sabbath" has its origins in both Hebrew and Greek, and its definitions provide insight into its meaning as a day of rest.
### **Hebrew:**
The Hebrew word for **Sabbath** is **שַׁבָּת (Shabbat)**. The root of this word is **שָׁבַת (shavat)**, which means **“to cease, desist, or rest.”** This conveys the idea of stopping work or activity, highlighting the concept of rest. The Sabbath, in the Old Testament, is established as a day to cease from labor, following the pattern of God's rest after creation in Genesis.
### **Greek:**
In the New Testament, the word **Sabbath** is translated from the Greek word **σάββατον (sabbaton)**. This Greek term is derived from the Hebrew **Shabbat**, and it similarly means **“a day of rest” or “a cessation from work.”** The use of the term in the Greek context carries the same significance as the Hebrew, emphasizing a day set aside for rest.
Both the Hebrew and Greek definitions of Sabbath underscore the central idea of resting or ceasing from work.
Passover can be considered a "high Sabbath," depending on the specific context in the biblical calendar.
In the Bible, a "high Sabbath" refers to a special Sabbath that occurs during one of the annual holy festivals, distinct from the regular weekly Sabbath. During these times, even if the holy day doesn't fall on the seventh day of the week (Saturday), it is still considered a Sabbath day, meaning a day of rest.
### **Passover and the High Sabbath:**
Passover itself is not always referred to directly as a "Sabbath," but the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, which begins immediately after Passover, is designated as a special Sabbath or high Sabbath, regardless of which day of the week it falls on. This is outlined in **Leviticus 23:6-7 (KJV)**:
> "And on the fifteenth day of the same month is the feast of unleavened bread unto the Lord: seven days ye must eat unleavened bread. In the first day ye shall have an holy convocation: ye shall do no servile work therein."
Because the Feast of Unleavened Bread begins right after Passover, the "holy convocation" or special Sabbath associated with it is often considered a "high Sabbath." In **John 19:31 (KJV)**, when referring to the day after Jesus' crucifixion (which coincided with Passover), the day is described as a "high day," indicating that it was a high Sabbath:
> "The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath day, (for that sabbath day was an high day,) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away."
Thus, while Passover itself is not technically called a Sabbath, the day immediately following it (the first day of Unleavened Bread) is considered a high Sabbath, which is why Passover celebrations are closely tied to the concept of a special or high Sabbath day.
Jesus is considered **our Passover** and **our High Sabbath** in both a symbolic and theological sense, drawing from key biblical themes that highlight His role in fulfilling the Old Testament rituals and laws.
### **1. Jesus as Our Passover**
The connection between Jesus and the Passover is found in **1 Corinthians 5:7 (KJV)**, where Paul explicitly refers to Christ as the Passover Lamb:
> "For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us."
This analogy stems from the Jewish celebration of Passover, in which a lamb was sacrificed and its blood applied to the doorposts of the Israelites' homes in Egypt to protect them from the final plague, the death of the firstborn (Exodus 12). This act of deliverance prefigured Jesus' sacrifice:
- **Jesus as the Passover Lamb**: Just as the Passover lamb was sacrificed to save the Israelites from death, Jesus’ death on the cross saves believers from the penalty of sin (eternal death). His blood, symbolically applied to our lives, protects and redeems us, providing deliverance from spiritual death.
- **His Sacrifice and Redemption**: The timing of Jesus' crucifixion also aligns with the Passover celebration. He was crucified during the Passover season, fulfilling the prophecy of being the sacrificial Lamb who takes away the sins of the world (John 1:29). In this way, Jesus became the ultimate Passover sacrifice, offering Himself for the salvation of humanity.
### **2. Jesus as Our High Sabbath**
The concept of Jesus being our **High Sabbath** points to the spiritual rest and cessation from labor that He provides to believers, fulfilling the deeper meaning of the Sabbath.
- **Spiritual Rest in Christ**: The Sabbath was originally instituted as a day of rest, commemorating God’s rest after creation (Exodus 20:8-11). Jesus brings a greater and eternal rest to those who trust in Him. He invites people into His rest, where they cease from striving to earn salvation through works, and instead, rest in the finished work of Christ on the cross. This is seen in **Matthew 11:28 (KJV)**:
> "Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest."
- **Fulfillment of the Sabbath**: In the same way that the weekly Sabbath symbolized a rest from physical work, Jesus' atoning death and resurrection provide a **spiritual Sabbath rest** for believers. Through His sacrifice, we enter into God's eternal rest from the labor of trying to attain righteousness through our efforts. This is explained in **Hebrews 4:9-10 (KJV)**:
> "There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God. For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his."
### **Jesus as the Ultimate Fulfillment of the High Sabbath**
- **High Sabbath Symbolism**: The "high Sabbaths" during the festivals, such as the one following Passover (the Feast of Unleavened Bread), were times of special rest and reflection on God’s deliverance. Jesus, by being crucified during the Passover and rising from the dead, fulfilled the deeper meaning of these holy days. He became the ultimate "high Sabbath," where believers find permanent rest and salvation in Him.
- **Jesus’ Work on the Cross**: Just as God rested after creation, Jesus rested after His redemptive work on the cross. When He declared "It is finished" (John 19:30), He signaled that His work of salvation was complete, offering eternal rest to all who believe.
### **Conclusion:**
Jesus is both our **Passover** and our **High Sabbath** in that:
1. He is the sacrificial Lamb, whose death delivers us from sin and spiritual death, just as the Passover lamb delivered the Israelites from the plague.
2. He provides eternal rest and redemption, fulfilling the deeper spiritual meaning of the Sabbath, where believers rest in His completed work on the cross and are freed from the burden of earning righteousness through works.
Through Christ, we experience deliverance, peace, and true spiritual rest.
