Metaphysical Bible Study

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

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
