Revelation Knowledge Will Set You Free!

Wednesday, March 2nd, 2011

Jesus once said that if you know the Truth… the Truth will set you free.  However it is impossible to know the Truth of God’s plan for us unless it is revealed to us by His Spirit.

And why do we need this knowledge?

“That you maybe filled up to the measure of ALL the fullness of God.” Ephesians 3:19

The core Bible Ascension message is all about manifesting the fullness of ALL the blessing in form. Manifesting in your physical world – this dimension ALL that Jesus died to make available to us. This is limited only by your ability to believe. Your ability to believe is limited by your level of revelation knowledge.

The truth must be revealed to you by the Spirit through the word preached by someone… via written message, video, audio, or in person..  The truth must then be received, believed, and acted upon by each individual.

The TRUTH is huge. It is so big… It  may be bigger than anyone has yet realized. But it remains a spiritual fact that the individual person can never manifest more of the TRUTH than they have received as TRUTH and believed it with their heart and confessed it with their mouth.

If you haven’t heard the message you can not know this truth.  If you don’t know this truth you cannot believe it and therefore you can not demonstrate it in your life.

Listen to what Solomon of the Odes has to say about the process and power of revelation knowledge:

Odes of Solomon

Ode 9: 8-1

8. An everlasting crown for ever is Truth. Blessed are they who set it on their heads:
9. A stone of great price is it: and there have been wars on account of the crown.
10. And righteousness hath taken it and hath given it to you.
11. Put on the crown in the true covenant of the Lord.
12. And all those who have conquered shall be written in His book.
13. For their book is victory which is yours. And she (Victory) sees you before her and wills that you shall be saved. Hallelujah.

Solomon of the Odes speaks of this crown of truth as a living crown in Ode 1

1.  The Lord is on my head like a crown, and I shall not be without Him.
2.  They wove for me a crown of truth, and it caused Your branches to bud in me.
3.  For it is not like a withered crown which does not bud: but You live upon my head, and You have blossomed upon my head.
4.  Your fruits are full-grown and perfect, they are full of Your salvation

Here you can see that the crown of truth placed upon your head… or in your understanding will bring forth the fruit of salvation.  You might say that because the truth was revealed to Solomon of the Odes, he was able to experience and express the full grown fruit of Bible Ascension… overcoming physical death and demonstrating all the Jesus died to give us.

In Ephesians 1: 16-23, Paul is praying that God will give us this spirit of wisdom and revelation knowledge that we can know and understand what this salvation is all about and who Jesus really is.

Listen to his prayer for you, a believer:

“I constantly make mention of you in my prayers — that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, The Father of Glory, might give to you a Spirit of Wisdom and Revelation in the sphere of a full knowledge of Him,

The eyes of your heart being in an enlightened state with a view to your knowing what is the hope of His calling, what is the wealth of the Glory of His inheritance in the Saints and what is the super abounding greatness of His inherent power to us who are believing ones as measured by the operative energy of the manifested strength of His might, which might was operative in the Christ when He raised Him from among the dead and

Seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places, over and above every government and authority and power and lordship and every name that is constantly being named, not only in this age, but also in the one about to come.

And all things He put in subjection under His feet, and Him He gave as Head over all things to the Church, which is of such a nature as to be His body, the fullness of the One who constantly is filling all things with all things.”  (From Wuest’s Expanded Translation of The Greek New Testament)

I recommend that you pray the above prayer for yourself every day.  Revelation knowledge is the key to manifesting Bible Ascension in your life.

Be blessed,

The Will Of God Is Good

Friday, September 17th, 2010

Hello Friends,

The Will Of God Is Good!  These words have been ringing in my mind for several days.

The Will Of God Is Good!

What a blessed reality to know that God’s will for you and for me is good.  It is more than good it is perfect. I no longer have to fight against the will of God because in the Will of God is contained every good and perfect gift for me.

The saying, “Not my will but thine be done.” was never meant to be a surrender to the pain, suffering and limitation of the human condition.  It was meant to be a recognition of the perfection of God’s Will.

My human will can only reflect my limited consciousness.  I can only will to do those things that I believe are possible for me to experience.  My will is infused with the consciousness of the human condition and the world’s thought.

God’s Will is pure and holy.  It is a reflection of the Divine Design manifesting through my uplifted and enlightened beliefs. God’s Will is perfection everywhere now. To surrender to the Will of God is to bow in humble adoration of the biggest and best plans that God could devise for my life and for all of humanity.

The Blessing is the Will of God. The Curse is the result of free will rejecting the Divine Design.

Here is something for you to contemplate:

The Bible says that the Blessings of God include great wealth and when He gives them they are trouble free!

Proverbs 10:22

Trouble FREE Wealth… is that something to struggle against or to get in the flow to receive?

Affirm often the words… The Will Of God Is Good!  Let the vibration of these sacred words resonant deeply in your soul.  Let these words be the last words you speak at night and the first you think in the morning. Let the essence of this divine truth become an anchor for your soul.

When you see something that is outside of the great Blessing of God, remind yourself that the Will of God is good. Resist the reflection of the world’s thoughts and surrender to the perfection of the Divine Thought.

The Will Of God Is Good!

Be Blessed,

Marty Dow

The Love of God is so Great… It Had To Be Shared With The World

Monday, July 26th, 2010

Hello Everyone,

My trip to Maine is almost over. It has been wonderful. The majesty of God can be seen everyday in the beauty of this coast.

We will begin our journey home this Saturday.

This morning I was reading the Odes of Solomon and I wanted to share with you some of my insights into Ode 19. I will begin by publishing it for you.

Ode 19

  1. A cup of milk was offered to me: and I drank it in the sweetness of the delight of the Lord.
  2. The Son is the cup, and He who was milked is the Father:
  3. And the Holy Spirit milked Him: because His breasts were full, and it was necessary for Him that His milk should be sufficiently released;
  4. And the Holy Spirit opened His bosom and mingled the milk from the two breasts of the Father; and gave the mixture to the world without their knowing:
  5. And they who received in its fullness are the ones on the right hand.
  6. The Spirit opened the womb of the Virgin and she received conception and brought forth; and the Virgin became a Mother with many mercies;
  7. And she travailed and brought forth a Son, without incurring pain;
  8. And because she was not sufficiently prepared, and she had not sought a midwife (for He brought her to bear) she brought forth as if she were a man, of her own will;
  9. And she brought Him forth openly, and carried Him with great dignity,
  10. And loved Him in His swaddling clothes and guarded Him kindly, and showed Him in Majesty. Hallelujah.

This is a very beautiful Ode and full of great wisdom on the Love of God.

Read it over again and let the hidden mysteries unfold in your spirit.

The Love of God

In John 3:16-17 it says,

“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.  Fo God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.”

For God so loved the world…

Ode 19 speaks of a cup of milk that was offered to him and that he drank in the delight of the Lord.  This milk is the life of God, Eternal Life… the Ascension.  The Son is the cup and He who was milked is the Father.

Jesus came to bring us this Life… this freedom from the human condition so that we could be born into His Kingdom which is the Kingdom of Light.  This great freedom is about more than heaven and hell.  This new Life is about living through grace in the realms of Light.  It is about supernatural life being expressed here on the earth.

Verse 3 tells us that the Holy Spirit milked the Father because His breasts were so full. Full of what… love for the world.  “God so loved the world that He sent His only begotten son.”

Most of us have had an experience of love that is akin to the above experience. It was certainly not about the whole world but it was an overwhelming feeling of love for a person, maybe your child, that was so full it had to be released.

The Light Came Into The World

The Bible tells us that the Light came into the world and the world did not know it.  This is reflected in verse 4.  The Light of our salvation or freedom from the bondage of the natural world, carnal world or limitation of the human condition.

Don’t get caught up in old religious beliefs.  This is not what you learned in Sunday School.  It is far greater than what most people understand.  This is about being birthed into Divinity.

Jesus was the only begotten of God.  But he is also the first born of many.  We are to be translated from the kingdom of darkness into the Divine Light. We are born again not as a “better human” but as a Divine Being able to do all the things that Jesus demonstrated while on earth.

How To Acquire A Body Of Light

Look now at Ode 21

Ode 21

  1. My arms I lifted up to the Most High, even to the grace of the Lord: because He had cast off my bonds from me: and my Helper had lifted me up to His grace and to His salvation:
  2. An I put off darkness and clothed myself with light,
  3. And my soul acquired a body free from sorrow or affliction or pains.
  4. And increasingly helpful to me was the thought of the Lord, and His fellowship in incorruption:
  5. And I was lifted up in His light; and I served before Him,
  6. And I became near to Him, praising and confessing Him;
  7. My heart ran over and was found in my mouth: and it arose upon my lips; and the exultation of the Lord increased on my face, and His praise likewise. Hallelujah.

It is ALL About God and What He Has Already Done For Us

Notice that is verse 1 Solomon of the Odes makes a reference to the fact that it is the Lord that has cast off his bonds and the Helper, which is the Holy Spirit (or I AM Presence) has lifted him up to His grace and His salvation.

It is God who has done the work of setting us free.  The karma has been paid. The bondage broken. Everything we need for the abundant life has already been created.

The Bible states that salvation is through grace and not works.  You can not do enough to separate yourself from the human condition.  You can learn to improve your life in the human condition. But to step into Divinity… Bible Ascension, you must depend totally on the finished works of the Great I AM!

You Must Reach Out In Faith To Access ALL the Blessings!

In verse 2, Solomon of the Odes tells us what is our part to do.

“And I put off darkenss and clothed myself with light.”

We have to do the work of pushing away the old way of being and attracting to ourselves the new way. We have to stop thinking the natural thoughts and start thinking like God thinks.  We have to use our faith to hang on to the promise of an abundant life even in the midst of the greatest darkness we have ever experienced.  We must KNOW that what we have asked for in faith is already ours… even if we can not see it yet.

In verse 4 Solomon of the Odes declares that, “Increasingly helpful to me was the thought of the Lord, and His fellowship in incorruption.”   This statement is in line with the Biblical teaching of being spiritually minded.

“For to be carnally minded (naturally minded, worldly minded, thinking as a human being stuck in the human condition) is death, but to be spiritually minded is life (eternal life, the life of God in you) and peace (nothing missing, nothing broken).

Spend your time thinking about heavenly things which includes the Divine Life that God has designed for you.  See the answers to your problems not the problems themselves.  Focus on the Promises of God not the difficult situations you may be experiencing. Don’t think about poverty, sickness or death; instead think about abundance, health, love, life and living in the supernatural realms.

Even though Love has made the way, you must choose to focus your attention and thoughts on the solutions God has promised. No one can control your thoughts for you. No one can decide what you will believe.  This you must do!

I encourage you to read the Odes of Solomon often. Meditate on the words of this sacred scripture. Let the truth it reveals transform your consciousness and allow the Light of Christ to shine through you.

Be blessed,

Marty Dow

Bible Ascension is all about Life and Death

Tuesday, June 29th, 2010

“We are not meant to be limited by the natural laws of this dimension. The I AM Presence is the assurance of our access into the Supernatural Miracle Working Power of God.  This power is always available to us to bring life, peace, health, prosperity and joy into our lives.”

Hello dear friends,

I am writing to you from Maine. My family and I are spending the month of July on this beautiful coast.

This morning I was reading in the book of Romans. Again I am reminded that the Bible message is all about Life and Death.

Romans 8:11

“But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.”

Romans 8:13-14

“For if you live according to the flesh you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the flesh you will live.

For as many as are led by the Spirit of God these are the Sons of God.”

Romans 8:2

“For the Law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the Law of Sin and Death.”

Romans 8:5-6

“For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.

For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.”

Romans 8:28

“And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His Purpose.”

These are repeating themes throughout the Bible:

Life and Death

The Law of the Spirit versus the Law of Sin and Death.

To be dead spiritually is to be cut off from the Spirit of God and the Law of the Spirit which is the source of Eternal Life. Eternal Life is all about being connected to God and His Purpose versus being disconnected and struggling in the human condition, already in the process of dying.

Human beings begin the dying process the moment they are born.

Bible Ascension and The I AM Presence

There is no conflict between the concepts of Bible Ascension and the message of the I AM Presence.

The only real difference is the emphasis of the Bible on the redemptive ministry of Jesus: the powerful benefits of His work on the cross, in hell, and the ascension to the right hand of the Father.

Also included in Bible Ascension is the concept of the Great Exchange. This is the understanding that the great gift of God is the exchange of our sin, sickness, mortality and poverty with the righteousness, health, immortality, and abundance found in Jesus.

“Jesus died that we might live.” “He became sin so that we can become the righteousness of God.”

These are important concepts for the student of Bible Ascension but the ideas of the I AM Presence are also powerful tools to use in the Ascension process.

Focusing on the I AM Presence is to be spiritually minded. Focusing on the personal self is to be carnally minded.

It is not just about things that are “sinful” but about the sense of separation from God.

If you understand that the word “flesh” in the Bible refers to the human part of us, the part that is lost in the consciousness of separation from the Spirit of God… not the body, but the consciousness of separation and all that it implies, you will understand what it means to be carnally minded.

When you use the I AM affirmations and meditate on the I AM Presence acting in every area of your life, you have turned to the Spirit… wherein life and peace lies.

When you take your eyes off the Mighty Presence you are focusing on self or the natural law of this dimension. Natural law without God is the Law of Sin and Death.

We are not meant to be limited by the natural laws of this dimension. The I AM Presence is the assurance of our access into the Supernatural Miracle Working Power of God.  This power is always available to us to bring life, peace, health, prosperity and joy into our lives.

The I AM Presence is a kin to “Dwelling in the Secret Place of the Most High” reference in Psalms 91.

Understand these simple concepts and you have the key to manifesting the complete will of God into your life!

An Ambassador of His Glory,

Marty Dow

Bible Ascension and The I AM Presence

Monday, May 17th, 2010

The One Essential Truth

The other day Spirit spoke to me and said, “Focus on this one simple idea and you will step rapidly into the Ascension, overcoming all sense of limitation and struggle.”

What is this one simple idea?  It is the simple truth that there is only the Power and the Presence of the great I AM operating in your life.  To function successfully in this truth, you must reject the influence any other thing from affecting your life, including yourself!

Jesus once said that it was not him but the Father within that did the work.

You can call this power and presence of God whatever you like. It is the Light of the Christ. It is the Glory of God. It is Jesus Christ.  It is the Mighty Conquering Presence, The I AM Presence that dwells within all.

The Presence of God is the first principle or your absolute assurance of your ascension. For it is God working in and through you that does the work.  Secondly, it is the active Presence of God that is the power manifesting those things upon which you place your attention combined with faith.

As you learn to keep your eyes on the I AM Presence and all of Its Glory, you will become transformed into that to which you are attending.  “The eye that is single to the glory of God will be filled with light.”

The Four Parts to this Simple Idea

There are four main parts to the simple idea: The Presence, The Power, The Substance, and The Manifested Blessing.

I AM the Presence directing. I AM the Power acting. I AM the Substance being acted upon. And I AM the Manifested Blessing that appears in your outer life.

You must come to experience and trust the Power of the I AM Presence (the Presence of God).  You must believe that the I AM Presence is the only power acting in your life. You must recognize and have uncertain faith in the God Substance that is available from which you can draw whatsoever you need in your life. You must know that it is the I AM Presence that manifests as the Blessing in your life.

In this simple understanding there is no other power operating in your life but the Mighty Conquering Power of God. It is God acting, God directing, God substance being acted upon, and God manifesting as the Blessing into your life.

You are given the power and the responsibility to decree those things you wish to have manifest in your life. You make the decree and you refuse to see anything else but God. Do not add any human or natural limitation to this decree. There is only God and NOTHING is impossible for God.

Add no time or space limitation. God can and will act anywhere in the world instantaneously if you do not block this action with your unbelief.

When you decree using the term I AM, you are aligning yourself to the Power and Presence of God. Do not get confused thinking that you are claiming to be the source. No, it is ALL about God. However, using the concept of the I AM Presence will help you align to the only power able to heal, bless, and prosper you abundantly.

If You Believe… You will Receive!  It is that Simple.

Believe what… just what I have stated in the above information… the one simple idea.  Let me repeat the basic understanding that is required of you.

You must come to experience and trust the Power of the I AM Presence.  You must believe that the I AM Presence is the only power acting in your life. You must recognize and have complete faith in the God Substance that is available from which you can draw whatsoever you need in your life. You must know that it is the I AM Presence that manifests as the Blessing in your life.

The Law of The One

Be obedient to the Law of the One.  The Law of the One says that there is only God and nothing but God can operate in your life. When you make a decree, believe with all your heart that your decree will manifest. Why?

In this simple understanding there is no other power operating in your life but the Mighty Conquering Power and Presence of God. It is God acting, God directing, God substance being acted upon, and God manifesting as the Blessing into your life.

You are given the power and the responsibility to decree those things you wish to have manifest in your life. You make the decree and you refuse to see anything else but God. Do not add any human or natural limitation to this decree. There is only God and NOTHING is impossible for God.

Do I seem to be repeating myself?  Well that is because I am. The idea is so simple that there are only a few possible answers to questions one might asked about the power of manifesting through the I AM Presence.

Obedience to the Law of the One simply means that you see only God and the Divine Promise of God. You reject anything… thought, word, or action that opposes itself to the One, God in Action completing the decree you have made in faith.

You make your decree and then you stand firm, knowing that there is nothing on earth or in heaven that can keep that decree from manifesting in your life.  You act as if it is already done and it will be so.

“Whenever you pray, believe that you have already received and that which you desire will be yours.”

Jesus Used I AM Affirmations

Jesus walked this earth in the consciousness of the I AM Presence. He never separated himself from God. He used the Power of the I AM in some of the most important decrees he made while on earth.

“I AM the resurrection and the life.”

“I AM the Bread of Life.”

“I AM the Living Bread that came down from heaven.”

“Most assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM.”

“I AM the good shepherd.”

“I AM the son of God.”

“I AM the way, the truth, and the life.”

“I AM the light of the world.”

“I AM the true vine.”

“I AM the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End,” says the Lord, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.”

The Fast Track To Bible Ascension

I love the Bible. I love the story of Jesus and recounting all the miracles demonstrated in his life and in the life of his disciples.  I love uncovering the mysteries that have been hidden since the beginning of time.  I love thinking about the Garden of Eden and the Millennial Age.  I love to teach about the Bible and especially on Bible Ascension.

Lately, I have come to realize that there although the Bible is filled with valuable information and hidden mysteries on the unfoldment of God’s Plan, many of us can get lost in the complexities of the Bible story and lose sight of what is most important.

Some of us seem to wander aimlessly through all the controversial topics that cause strife in the Body of Christ.  It is as if we must figure out all the fine details before we are able to focus on the one true goal, our Ascension into His Light.

As I mentioned at the top of this post, the other day the Spirit spoke to me and said, “Focus on this one simple idea and you will step rapidly into the Ascension, overcoming all sense of limitation and struggle.”

This statement made me realize that if I wanted to enter the fast track to Bible Ascension I needed to focus on the essential truth that I had learned.

It is ALL About Manifestation!

Years ago, Spirit told me that for me it was all about precipitation.  Precipitation simply means manifestation.  Another time in a dream I was told that I was to use only one color in my activities and that was the color of faith.

You see it is all about precipitation… manifesting the Spirit of God in our forms.

Experiencing any aspect of salvation is only possible for us if we apply the law of faith (the one color of faith) to whatever it is that we want to experience in our lives.  If it was healing we need then we must decree the promises of healing and Divine health combined with our faith in order to have the miracle of healing manifest in our lives.

What about prosperity?  Well abundance and prosperity are part of the gift of salvation. However, to experience prosperity in your personal life you will have to compel it into existence through prayer and the power of faith.

The same is true of Bible Ascension, the ultimate aspect of salvation. In order for us to experience Bible Ascension while on earth, we will need to decree the “fullness of the Spirit of God into our physical form.”

There is no other way to achieve salvation than through believing in your heart and confessing with your mouth.

The Essential Truth

The essential truth is that it is ALL about God not me.  My job is to believe and to decree. God does all the rest.

I don’t have to understand all the details of the complexities of the Bible narrative or how they fit into the things I learned on other spiritual paths.  I don’t need all the answers before I can begin to focus my powerful, creative consciousness on the Power and Presence of God and manifest my heart’s desire into form.

It is in the Presence of God or Christ where all the blessings are stored including the blessing of the Ascension.   As I focus on Him, I become Him. I manifest all that He is into my outer life.

God is constantly pouring His life and blessings into us. This Life is perfect just as it is. Unfortunately, we qualify this Perfect Life with limitation and struggle through our erroneous thoughts and beliefs.  We, ourselves create the struggle we experience in life.

By learning to see only God and God’s goodness, even if it is only in our imagination, we begin to precipitate/manifest that perfection into our lives.

Contemplate this essential truth and see if it does not simplify your life, your path and put you on the fast track to Bible Ascension.

Be Blessed,

Marty Dow

Heaven and Hell

Wednesday, April 21st, 2010

Good Morning!

Several folks have asked me questions about what happens when we die and will there be a day of judgment.  They want to know if some of the teachings that they learned as a child were true.

As you already know, if you have been reading the Bible Ascension Blog, I do not believe that salvation is only about heaven and hell. I believe that salvation is about being born into a new species of Divine Supernatural Beings of Light… immortal beings who look and act as Jesus did.

Jesus said that he was the first born of many.  When we are “saved” we are born into this new kingdom and we begin the process of becoming… maturing into this new species.

As I have written earlier, the gift of the Holy Spirit was the ultimate purpose of the death and resurrection of Jesus.  By paying the penalty for our karma and cleansing us of the old negative energies we are prepared to receive the Holy Spirit.

It is the Holy Spirit that brings us into this new birth.

The new birth is the birth of the children of God.  We are no longer children of Adam living in the human condition. We have been translated from the kingdom of darkness… or separation from God, into the kingdom of the Son… the Christ.

We are saved from the human condition with all of its limitations and born into the Divine freedom that we have in Christ.

Questions on Heaven and Hell

I don’t spend much time thinking about heaven and hell in the traditional sense.  So it is hard for me to answer the questions I have received.  I don’t have a revelation on these topics.  I have opinions but my opinions are not any more important than anyone else’s opinion.

I promised you when I began this blog that I would always tell you the truth as I understood it.  I also promised that if I got a new revelation on something that I had been teaching, I would tell you about that too.

Praying For Revelation

I have been praying for insight into the day of Judgment, the Rapture and other end time prophecies so that I could add something of value to the way these events are interpreted.

I did not get any revelation on the meaning of these events that are spoken of in the Bible.  I could share with you what tradition folks believe or what many metaphysical teachers have to say about these topics.  But I did not hear any new revelation from the Spirit on these areas of interest.

My Answer

Here is what I did get.  A few days ago I picked up the Bible and it opened to the book Philippians.  I noticed that I had underlined some passages so I read them.  I chuckled to myself because I knew that this was the answer the Holy Spirit was giving to me about my questions and it was what I needed to share with you.

This is from a letter that Paul wrote to the church in Philippi.

Phillipians 3:10 – 21

“I want to know Christ and the power of his resurrection and the fellowship of sharing in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death, and so somehow, to attain to the resurrection from the dead.

Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already been made perfect, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. Brothers, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it.

But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead. I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.

All of us who are mature should take such a view of things. And if on some point you think differently, that too God will make clear to you. Only let us live up to what we have already attained.

Join with others in following my example, brothers, and take note of those who live according to the pattern we gave you.

For, as I have often told you before and now say again even with tears, many live as enemies of the cross of Christ. Their destiny is destruction, their god is their stomach, and their glory is in their shame. Their mind is on earthly things.

But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ, who, by the power that enables him to bring everything under his control, will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body.”

The Message

This reminded me that what was most important was the effort to attain the “prize of the high calling.”  Paul was not yet perfect. But he knew what his goal was. He challenged his readers to keep their eyes on the heavenly things and not on the earth.  He teaches us not to be like those that have their mind on the earthly… the way that leads to destruction.

He also says that if you see things differently or if you have questions about what you read (my addition to Paul’s words), God will make it clear to you.

He encourages us to live up to what we already know.  This says to me that we should not get lost in what we are confused about but instead to go after what we do understand.

For me the most important thing is to focus on the new birth… living as a Christed being.  I want to keep my eyes on the high calling and not get lost in the confusion of those things I do not understand.

Yesterday, while I was driving around town I saw a church sign.  It said, ” Jesus did not come to give us religion but to give us Life!”

That is so true.  Many of the ideas we spend so much time contemplating and arguing about are the issues of religion.  I suggest that we all turn our attention to the Life we have in Christ.  Focus on what you know.  Focus on the spiritual realms and not on the earthly arguments about religion.

If you have a burning question, pray and God will answer you.

Be blessed,

Marty Dow

Another Question On Salvation Through Jesus

Saturday, March 13th, 2010

Sorry I have not yet created the audio I promised. I have been very busy with travel and I am also creating a new site.  I can’t wait to share the new site with you but it is not quite ready for an unveiling.  However, I did want to continue our discussion on questions readers have sent to me.

Here is another question sent in by a fellow Bible Ascension Blog reader

Question

Following up with the question about salvation. So do you believe that those who don’t confess the name of Jesus as Lord and savior are not going to heaven and don’t have the in-dwelling spirit of God?

Answer

Remember, it is not so much what I believe but what you believe.  I told you in my last post that I had decided to believe the Bible instead of things that I learned from other sources. It is my choice to choose those things that I believe and the Bible is what I have chosen to believe.

So to answer this question, lets look at what Jesus said concerning salvation in the scriptures.

Just a quick reminder… salvation is much more than escaping hell and getting to heaven.  What we are describing on this Bible Ascension blog is about a new birth into a new species of beings… Divine beings birthed into the kingdom of God.

Read the scriptures with this image in mind and some of the old fears and resistance to the scriptures on salvation will be washed away.

Jesus as the Bread of Life

I personally love the gospel of John, so lets look there.

In John 6, Jesus describes himself as the Bread of Life.   Starting in verse 27 he tells his listeners not to “labor for food which perishes but for the food which endures to everlasting life, which the Son of Man will give you, because God the Father has set His seal on Him.”

Everlasting life is not chronological time… it is the very life of God that is birth into the new species of Divine Beings.

When the Jews asked him how they could do the works of God he answered, “This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He sent.” Vs 29

In verse 33 Jesus tells us “For the bread of God is He who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world.”  In verse 35 he says, “I am the bread of life.”

Verse 40, “And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that everyone who see the son and believes in Him may have everlasting life; and I will raise him up at the last day.”

Verse 47 -48, “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me has everlasting life. I am the bread of life.”

Verse 50-51, “This is the bread which comes down from heaven, that one may eat of it and not die. I am the living bread which came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever; and the bread that I shall give is My flesh, which I shall give for the life of the world.”

So in these verses Jesus is making the claim that he is the bread of life, that he will give his flesh or body for the life of the world and that he came from heaven to do the Will of God which is to give those that believe in him everlasting life.

Believing On the Son Brings Everlasting Life

In chapter 3 of John Jesus makes very similar statements about who he is and why he came to earth.  This a great chapter to study more on the new birth. But for our conversation to day, lets look at John 3:16-19.

“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.  He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. ”

A New Species of Supernatural Beings of Light

So what does all this mean.  I believe that the Bible is clear that Jesus is the incarnation of the Christ–the only begotten son of God. Christ took on the form of a man in order to complete a mission that began before the foundation of the earth. This mission was to redeem us from the curse of the human condition and translate us into a new species as members of the kingdom of heaven/or God.

When Jesus says that the one who does not believe is condemned already, I believe that he is referring to the curse. All human beings are already operating under the curse. If you reject being redeemed from the curse of the human condition, you are still cursed.

What Is Condemnation?

In verse 19, Jesus describes the condemnation. “And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.”  The light comes into the world but it is rejected because people prefer to believe the dark thoughts produced by the world beliefs.

Even many of the Jews who studied the ancient scriptures did not recognize who Jesus was when they met him. In John 5: 38-40 Jesus tells his listeners, “But you do not have His word abiding in you, because whom He sent, Him you do not believe. You search the Scriptures, for in them you think you have eternal life; and these are they which testify of Me. But you are not willing to come to Me that you may have life.”

The New Believer

Jesus describes what a new believer will look like in Mark 16:15-18.  Go read this for yourself. It describes a supernatural race of beings that have the ability to heal the sick, speak in tongues, drink poison with no ill effect, and to handle deadly snakes with no negative consequences.

It is obvious to me that these folks have stepped out of the human condition of struggle and fear into a supernatural ability to overcome the effects of the curse… not just for themselves but for others too!

The Holy Grail Is The Holy Spirit

As for the question of the in dwelling Spirit of God, let me refer you to Galatians 3:13-14.

“Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us (for it is written, Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree), That the blessing of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.”

The in dwelling of the Spirit is the Holy Grail.  It is the thing that Jesus came to give to us. The in dwelling of the Spirit is what takes us from the human condition into this new species. The Bible refers to the Holy Spirit as a deposit or guarantee of salvation  until the transformation is complete.

The natural human being is created in the image of God.  This image is extremely powerful. Human beings have great creative power because we were created in God’s image.  The Bible does not say that human beings were born of God.

Christ The Only Begotten

Christ is a part of the God Head. Christ was the only begotten Son of God because all other species were created not begotten.  Christ was birthed out of the Spirit of God. Adam was created with many of the attributes of God. Adam was not born neither were the angels.

This new species of Divine beings are birthed through faith into the family of God, as children of God… not born through natural means but through faith in the finished work of the Christ, incarnated as Jesus.

It is the gift of the Holy Spirit that enables this new birth to occur and empowers the believer with supernatural force.

The Holy Spirit has always been visible on the earth, teaching, guiding the children of men.  However, the indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit comes through the work that Jesus completed in His ministry on earth.  Without this work we would never be able to transformed into this new species.

Humanity Is The Root Stock

The amazing thing to me is that the human condition is the root stock out of which this new species is being created. It is a blending of the human species with the Divine. The Divine seed is the Holy Spirit being birth into the root stock of the created, fallen human being.

The work of Jesus was to cleanse us of our karmic debt making it possible to be transformed by something as holy as the Holy Spirit.  Without that cleansing power of the blood of Jesus, a human being would have been killed — destroyed by the power and purity of God’s Spirit.

The power of the purity of the Spirit is demonstrated many times in the old testament.  Specifically, you can see this in the rituals of protection taken by the high priest of the Temple.   More on this at another time.

After the resurrection, the Bible describes Jesus as being the first born of many.  Born into what… this new species. Jesus was the first born into this new species.

Christ had to incarnate into the root stock of humanity and pay the karmic debt as a human being. Then through the power of the Holy Spirit, Jesus, the man, was born into this new species making it possible for others to follow through the power of faith.

Faith in what?  Faith in the work that Jesus had accomplished on earth… through the cross, the resurrection, and the ascension.

The Real Question Here

If the questioner is at all like I was in my journey to understand the meaning of the Bible message, the real question is “What about those who are not Christians?  Are they separated from God?  Are they without the spirit of God?”

This is a great question and I will answer it in the next post.

In His Glory,

Marty Dow

What About The Bible?

Sunday, February 21st, 2010

To begin to clarify some of the questions folks have sent to me concerning my beliefs about salvation, the Holy Spirit, heaven and hell… there is no better place to start than the Bible.  The concept of Bible Ascension is rooted in the teachings of the Bible.  But I have not always trusted the Bible to be a true source of spiritual wisdom.

My Early Bible History

As a young child I was taught that the Bible was the Word of God and therefore infallible.  My childhood denomination accepted every word of the scriptures in a literal fashion. We studied one version of the Bible, the King James. There was never any mention of other translations of the Bible, researching the original language for deeper meanings, or being led by the Spiritual of Wisdom and Revelation Knowledge for the hidden meaning.  Actually, I was never encouraged to question the literal interpretation of church doctrine in any form… this would have been to question God Himself!

Fortunately for me, my father was a deep spiritual thinker that did question the literal teachings of my childhood church… my mother’s church.  He did not interfere with what I was learning but I knew that there was “other” views of what the Bible meant.

After my mother’s death I left my childhood church in anger and rebellion.  As I share in my story, I rejected the church, the Bible, Jesus and God. Everything I had learned was now suspect and discarded.

College Days and Eastern Philosophy

As I began to search for new answers to my questions about spirituality, I was taught that the Bible was untrustworthy.  I was told that it might have been God’s word at one point but unscrupulous people had changed the Bible to control the masses. Things had been removed, mistranslations had occurred and the real message had been distorted.  Many of these teachers rejected the Bible but claimed that other ancient documents held a more accurate version of the truth.  Most of these early teachers were interested in Eastern religions and philosophies.

Metaphysical Explorations

As my search led me towards metaphysical studies, I was told again about the mistranslations and omissions of the Bible.  However, many of my spiritual teachers believed that Jesus was an important teacher and that the Bible did contain hidden meanings. These folks believed that some scriptures were trustworthy… especially those that reinforced one of their core beliefs.  Scriptures that did not support their particular philosophy were ignored or rejected.  Important ideas that were not included in the Bible were thought to have been there at one time but removed by the church leaders to have more control over the masses.

Where Did All The Bibles Go?

One thing I noticed in both of these “broad” groups is that no one actually studied the Bible.  Most of their ideas on the Bible were based on what they had been taught and not on actual experiences studying the Bible.

When I moved into Metaphysical Christian churches I was struck by the lack of Bibles present… even in a Bible study group.  We studied books about the Bible and what others had written about Jesus, but never the actual Bible.  Later, when I started teaching in Metaphysical Christian churches there was always someone who came up to me after my talk and said something like this, “I really would rather you did not talk about the Bible so much. People here are uncomfortable with all the Bible talk.”   I kid you not!  But I am getting a head of myself

Answering My Bible Questions

The Bible is a part of my core being.  As a child I memorized many scriptures and participated in sword drills, a competition for demonstrating one’s ability to quickly locate scriptures.  Now I did question it’s authority, it’s accuracy, and it’s validity especially after I left the church. I even stopped studying or reading it for many years.  But I never got those scriptures out of me nor did I lose my love for Jesus.

When God directed me to return to my childhood denomination, I was filled with questions about the Bible. I spent long hours with a young minister asking my questions and challenging his beliefs.  Fortunately, he was not threatened by my questions.  He was a very smart and confident man who was skilled in Bible study.  He patiently answered my questions and suggested that I study the Bible for myself.  He guided me on how to study the Bible and gave me numerous study guides to take home with me.   We met every week for several months.  I am so thankful for this young minster. He was quite a gift to me!

One day I walked into his office gripping a Bible in my hands.  I said to him, “If only 1% of this is true, I know why those Charismatic Christians are jumping up and down and shouting.”  I had discovered the Promises of God and they were powerful!  His guidance that day has become a core part of my spiritual path.  He said, “If you always use the Bible as your foundation, you will find the Truth you seek.”

My journey led me back and forth from Charismatic Christian churches to alternative spiritual groups and Metaphysical Christian churches.  I have recounted this story on the page about the Author.  You can read more detail there.

What I Have Learned

I was following the promptings of the Spirit on my search for truth.  Here are a few things I discovered about the Bible along the way:

1. There were unscrupulous people trying to keep the Bible away from the masses so that they could control them. However, they did not actually change or remove things from the Bible. Their method to keep the Bible away from the masses was to refuse to allow anyone but priest to see or study the Bible.  They could not have removed the hidden mysteries that we are studying because they did not understand those truths.

2. Many people lost their lives for printing and distributing the Bible in the language of every day people.  There was a great battle for the privilege of personal Bible study.  The church did not want to lose control of the Bible and have people thinking for themselves.  Fortunately for us they did lose control.

Today we have easy access to the Bible. We can choose from a variety of translations and easily go back to the original text and determine if we agree with that particular translation of the Bible.  We are not stuck with only a literal interpretation of one version of the Bible.  We can study the meanings of particular scriptures and entire topics for ourselves. In addition, there are tons of commentaries we can read and discover how others have interpreted those scriptures.  It is an amazing time to be studying the Bible!

3. There are some mistranslations in the Bible. However, it is much less than you might think. The Hebrew people were extremely cautious about protecting the Word of God and for them that is actually what their scriptures were… God speaking directly to them.  No transcriber would dare make an error and they devised ways to ensure accuracy.  An example is that each letter on a line of scripture was counted so that errors in translations could be easily caught.

4. The Lamsa translation of the Bible from ancient eastern manuscripts is often heralded by Metaphysical Christians as proof of Bible mistranslations.  However, I do not find any differences in the main message of the Bible on Jesus, redemption, and what we are calling Bible Ascension.  There are some evidences of errors but in my opinion these are insignificant to the over all Bible message.  You can study this topic further but searching for George Lamsa.

By the way the ancient manuscripts that George Lamsa translated were untouched by the Nicene Council so the beliefs concerning the omission of certain occult topics do not seem to be supported in Dr Lamsa’s work.  Google George Lamsa to learn more.  The supposed effect of the Nicene Council on the Bible was a very important concern for me in my journey to accept the Bible as a foundation for my spiritual truths.

5. Many fundamental Christians are satisfied with a literal interpretation of Bible scriptures. Part of the reason for this is that they are seeing the Bible only through their human perspective. The Bible is a spiritual book and must be understood with spiritual eyes.  If we try to understand it without the Spirit of wisdom and revelation knowledge we will end up with a very limited and natural interpretation of a spiritual message.   Pray the prayer Paul prayed in the first chapter of Ephesians so that you can be led of the Spirit and understand the hidden mysteries of the Bible.

6.  Often Metaphysical Christians reject Bible teachings because of their fear of omissions and mistranslations.  However, they still believe the Bible is sacred.  I believe this has led to an undue focus on symbolism in the Bible.  This is based on the idea that if the Bible is sacred and we can not trust the literal meaning, then we must look for the spiritual meaning in the symbolism of names, places etc in the Bible.  The idea is that truth can only be found in these hidden places.  Although I agree that there is much symbolism in the Bible and I appreciate those who uncover interesting gems from their searches, it is my opinion that the Bible mysteries are hidden in plain sight.

7. Here is the bottom line for me… The Bible is not a scientific or historical treatise. The Bible is a revelation of God’s will and plan for humanity now and in the ages to come. The Old Testament contains a history of a particular line of humanity that were destined to protect God’s Word (His Will, Plan, Promises, Law, Prophecies) given through prophets and the genetic code for the incarnation of the Christ.  These people were kept separate from the other folks living on the earth so that the message and the genetic code would not be contaminated by outside influences  until Christ was incarnated on the earth to complete his earthly mission.

The New Testament is an unveiling of the new species of Divine Beings and God’s plan for the ages to come.   The truth is there but it is hidden from the natural mind and must be discerned by the spiritual mind.  This is a spiritual document about spiritual truths concerning a new species of spiritual beings.

8. I have decided… and it is a decision, to based my teachings concerning Bible Ascension on the Bible.  For me so many of the understandings I have uncovered are right there on the written page. Sometimes I wonder why I did not see them before and why so many other folks who are frequent readers of the Bible do not see them!  I know part of it is my own spiritual growth and part of it is due to the times in which we live.  Greater and greater revelation knowledge of the supernatural realms are being revealed to us now.

So as I answer these questions I am going to refer to what I see in the Bible and not standard teachings of either the traditional Christian church or the Metaphysical/Alternative spiritual paths.  I have studied both and learned have learned so much.  However, Jesus told me to step on the path of Bible Ascension and lock the door behind me.  This requires that I depend upon and teach ideas that are supported by the word God as given through the Bible.

9. I promise to be honest. I promise to tell you what has been revealed to me and to tell you what I have yet to understand. As I told you in the last post… I do not have all the answers but God does.  And He has promised to reveal it to us if we seek the truth.  I believe that promise with all me heart.

10. You are not going to agree with everything I believe. But let us agree to disagree in love. I honor your God given right to choose what you believe. There will never be true peace among diverse groups of people unless we decide to respect our differences of opinions.  This is important to me.  I am so tired of people getting in a huff over someone disagreeing with them.

Trust the Spirit to guide your studies! That is the best anyone can do as we seek to find the Truth!

I wrote this post this morning because I realized that I will not have time to complete the audio I promised in my last post. I will be traveling much of this week.

Keep your eyes open the answers are coming soon!

Be Blessed,

Marty Dow

My Journey to Bible Ascension

Sunday, February 7th, 2010

Yesterday I received a comment from a reader that I wanted to share on the site. The question and the answer might be of benefit to others. The reader wanted more specifics on my spiritual journey.  Here is the question and my answer….

Here is what the reader wrote:

You’re website is very interesting.  I’d be curious to hear some of the specifics of your travels in alternative spirit circles and the relation you found with Christ and the Bible.  Do you discuss these specifics anywhere?

My answer:

I am not sure exactly what you are asking me… It sounds like you want to know the relationship of specific alternative paths that I might have explored with Christ and the Bible.  I am not sure of the emphasis here.

Are you more curious about what specific paths I explored on my journeys or are you more interested in how particular paths relate to Christ and the Bible?

Let me give you a general answer and maybe something more specific when I hear back from you.

My Approach To Seeking God Was Eclectic

I have always been very eclectic in my approach to spiritual questions. Well not always… As I mentioned in my introduction and on the about the author pages, I grew up in a very traditional Southern Baptist Church. So I began my journey in a very closed environment.  I have always been an avid reader and I became introduced to other ideas about God through reading, often to the dismay of my parents.  My exploration broadened when I went to college and began to live on my own free to make my own decisions.

Alternative Paths I Have Studied

I have studied many ideas, through reading and conversations with other folks but I am not an expert in any particular area.  My most intense focus has been in New Thought Christianity, just as Unity, Science of Mind. Also I have studied and read teachings on the Ascended Masters such as the Teachings of the Masters of the Far East, The I AM materials, and the teachings of the Theosophical Society.  Most of these paths have some emphasis on Jesus and the understanding of a Cosmic Christ.  I would broadly categorize these teachings as metaphysical and some of them as metaphysical Christianity.  But I am not a scholar and I am sure a scholar in any of these areas when argue with me about such a broad category.

Where I Studied The Bible

On the other hand I am also NOT a Bible scholar.  I have never gone to a Bible College.  I have certainly studied the Bible and read many different ideas about what the Bible means.   I have studied Bible ideas with traditional Christians, Charismatic Christians, Faith Christians, Metaphysical Christians and what I call New Age Christians.  These are those who are actively involved in New Age beliefs but also love Jesus and see him as a very important teacher/guide but not a savior.

My Limited Experience With Eastern Religions

I imagine from your name that you might be interested in Eastern philosophies.  I have read Yoganada and practiced some Hatha Yoga.  It was while considering joining an ashram that Jesus came to me in a dream.  I describe this dream in detail on the Bible Ascension site.   But my understanding is very limited in these areas of religious studies.

I know some about Buddhism… very little about Hindu… almost nothing about Islam.

The Spirit Guided My Studies

As you can read on the Bible Ascension blog, my path was led by divine guidance. I would study with one group for months or years and then wake up one morning with instructions to move on to another group.  Sometimes over my loud and arduous objections but I followed this guidance as best I could out of love and commitment to God. I did not know the “Truth” but I trusted the inner voice that was directing my studies.  I often felt isolated and alone on my path because people would misunderstand my leaving their group as a rejection of them and/or their beliefs. Nevertheless, I followed what I understood to be the direction of God for me.

Well there is a general description of the multiple alternative paths I have explored.  In summary, I must say that I am NOT an expert in any one of them. I have learned many things on my journeys. Sometimes it felt as if I was studying with these groups or a particular author to glean one very specific piece of information.  At other times it felt that I was there to see correlation between those ideas and ideas taught in the Bible.

My Purpose Is Revealed

I often wondered if part of my purpose/mission was to teach about the differences and similarities between the different paths but that was not to be.  I am actually not knowledgeable in any one path to teach the intricacies of that path.  But as I have come to discover that was not God’s plan for me.

After many years of constant search and exploration, I awoke one morning to a new instruction.  I was to step on the path of Bible Ascension and lock the door behind me. I would never step off of this path. I would never need to study any other path again. The path of believing the Gospel of Glory as told in the Bible was my path to the Ascension.  That day I stepped onto this path, closed and locked the door behind, and I have never looked back. I know this is my path and sharing this message with others is my mission. I am so thankful because I know that I am home!

The Message I Was Commissioned To Share

So what is my message…

I am a disciple of Jesus the Incarnation of the Cosmic Christ. I am commissioned to share the story of the Gospel of Glory, which I call Bible Ascension, with those who are on alternative spiritual paths.  I have been told that there are many seekers on these alternative paths that belong to Jesus. They have been religiously wounded in the past but have never lost the deep connection to Christ. They are still looking for their answers and have not yet found them.  The Spirit told me that they would recognize the truth when they heard it. My job is to simply share the mysteries of this Gospel of Glory that are hidden in plain sight in the Bible with all who are attracted to my voice, my language, and to the message that I share.

It does not matter to me if it is one person or 10,000.  My job is to explain the hidden truths of Bible Ascension to all those that are willing to hear these truths in the language and style that was given to me. The Lord of Glory will call those who are meant to hear this message and direct them to my message/ministry when they are ready. The Lord of Glory will open their hears so that they can hear and understand.

I am certain that my message, my voice, my language is not for everyone.  The Spirit told me that only those who resonate to my vibration would be attracted to this ministry. He told me that he had other messengers to share the message with those who are of a different vibrations.  The message is the same.  “The same Lord… the same Spirit… the same Gospel.”  It is the style, language and focus that is unique to each group.

As disciples of Christ, we are never going to agree on everything. However, we must all learn to walk in love and respect obeying the Master’s command of love.

People come to Jesus from many different perspectives and levels of awareness.  My ministry and message is just one of those doorways.

I hope this was helpful to you.

In His Glory,

Marty Dow
