The Inner Heart Of the Father & Son

I have been thinking about the concept
of the Father and Son relationship.
I was reminded of the Old Testament
verse in Malaci from  KJV that has:

Malachi 4:6    KJV
And he shall turn the heart of the
fathers to the children, and the
heart of the children to their fathers
lest I come and smite the earth with
a curse.

I looked closer at the Malachi verse only
to discover that there are just 11 words.
I have written down their Strong's definitions:
1) H7725 - Shuwb = turn back, repent, restore
2) H3820 - Leb = the inner man, soul, heart
==> 3) H1 - 'Ab = father
==> 4) H1121 - Ben = son, children
5) H3820 - Leb = the inner man, soul, heart
==> 6) H1121 - Ben = son, children
==> 7) H1 - 'Ab = father
8) H935 - Bow = to go in, enter, cause to gather
9) H5221 - Nakah - smite, smitten, chastise, wounded
10) H776 - 'Erets = whole earth, world, nations
11) H2764 - Cherem - a net, devoted thing, ban,
curse, cursed-thing, destruction

I noticed how word#3 was defined primarily
as a singular person. This was also true
for word#4.  I found this a very interesting change
when deciphering this Malachi verse. I believe
this is a profound discovery! These two words
have also linked together Father/Son as well as
Son/Father.

Also, note how the KJV translation of 'cursed'
is H2764 and not H779 which was used by Noah.
(reference Genesis 9:18, 25 KJV)

This is another hugh difference because the
promised Messiah was not seeking to curse,
but to cause the whole world to be delivered
from under the ban of judgment!

With this in mind, I have pieced together my
Marin Transliteration for your consideration:

==>> Turn back restoring the inner heart
[of] the Father [to] the Son, the inner heart
[of] the Son [to] the Father [by] causing the
gathering in entering [through] chastisement,
smitten, woundedness [for] the whole world[ly]
Nations [as] a devoted cursed-thing [under]
the ban [for] destruction.

This verse points directly to the prophetic
announcement with very specific details
towards how our Messiah and Savior was
restoring the inner heart of His Father!

Jesus would accept His Father's desire to
gather those who are lost. Jesus accepted
being wounded, bruised, smitten and even
chastised in order to completely remove
all of the punishment that we were placed
under due to our sinful nature.

Isaiah 53:5    KJV
But he [was] wounded for our transgressions,
[he was] bruised for our iniquities: the
chastisement of our peace [was] upon
him; and with his stripes we are healed.

Enslaved To God / Sanctification

The Children of Israel were instructed how to
keep the Law of Moses, especially how to keep
clean from those detestable things/actions.

The Sons of Aaron and those of the Priesthood
were given special instructions how to remain
in the sanctification of the LORD.

Leviticus 22:9    NASB
'They shall therefore keep My charge
so that they will not bear sin because
of it and die thereby because they
profane it; I am the LORD who
sanctifies them.'

Now through Jesus Christ, the perfect Lamb
of God, we have this sanctification for
those who call upon the Name of the LORD.

The Spirit's Heavenly Law of Liberty has
now been witnessed and written upon our
hearts. Let us see this great Rock of
Eternal Salvation who has so very generously
given us flowing Living Waters!

Romans 6:22    NASB
But now having been freed from sin
and enslaved to God, you derive your
benefit, resulting in sanctification
and the outcome, eternal life.

Worthless Without Redeeming Values

Jeremiah 2:5   NIV
This is what the LORD says: "What fault did
your fathers find in me, that they strayed
so far from me? They followed worthless
idols and became worthless themselves.

Their carved, false-image is worshipped and
adorned with expense trinkets, baubles and
the like to somehow 'prove' their status as
successful. They become prideful of their
possessions as though material success has
justified their value.

2 Chronicles 13:7   NIV
Some worthless scoundrels gathered around him
and opposed Rehoboam son of Solomon when he
was young and indecisive and not strong enough
to resist them.

Perhaps Noah was attempting to isolate those
who would be worthless-without-redeeming
qualities.

Proverbs 11:4    NIV
Wealth is worthless in the day of wrath,
but righteousness delivers from death.

The less value of the heart, the greater the
need for valued possessions.

Noah Cursed Merchant-Low-Lifes

Genesis 9:18, 25 KJV
And the sons of Noah, that went forth
of the ark, were Shem, and Ham, and
Japheth: and Ham [is] the father of Canaan.
[v25] So he [Noah] said, "Cursed be Canaan;
A servant of servants he shall be to his
brothers."
 
Book of Genesis, Chapter 9 Verse 25 Breakdown:
1) H559 - amar = saying
2) H779 - arar = be cursed
3) H3667 - Canaan = Canaan
4) H5650 - ebed = slave man-servant (lowest)
5) H5650 - ebed = bondage (on all sides)
6) H251 - ach = brethren, brother, kindred
Marin Paraphrase:
[Noah} saying, "Be cursed Canaan, as the lowest
slave-manservant on all bondage sides in kindred
brothren."
 
As I see it, the bondage wasn't to serve their brothers,
but a class of merchants who would completely and
totally work within the confines of sin's bondage on
all sides, i.e., no escape.

What bondage of servile service to sin was enacted by
Noah? The definition from Strong's H3667 for
Canaan (Kana`an or ken·ah'·an) became equal to:
merchant, traffick, traffickers, lowland, trader

The take-away evokes a sence of low-life always
greedy, actively seeking the lowest common
denominator to engage in economic trades so
as to maximize profits without regard to moral
or ethical principles.

Perhaps this was the basis of the ST:NG people
known as the Ferengi. The etymology"Ferengi"
and similar terms are Arabic names for European
traders, or for Westerners in general. The name
is likely derived from the Arabic word faranj or
ifranj, or Persian farangi, meaning "Franks".
See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferengi
How does a Merchant qualify as a low-life?
They steal what doesn't belong to them and
carve out for themselves a false image of being
successful using money, power and corruption
to hide behind.

End-Of-Days Merchants

Romans 7:14, 21 NASB
For we know that the Law is spiritual,
but I am of flesh, sold into bondage to sin.
[v21] I find then the principle that evil is
present in me, the one who wants to do good.

This evil is the principle reason why we can
not please God nor present ourselves to Him
in our own works, no matter how hard we strive
to produce goodness.

Job 28:12-13 English Standard (ESV)
"But where shall wisdom be found?
And where is the place of understanding?
[v13] Man does not know its worth, and
it is not found in the land of the living.

We all have our own journey to travel. This
is the very nature of being human. If we wish
to maximize our lives, shall we not seek for
pearls of wisdom and truth that are trustworthy?

John 6:63 NASB
[Jesus] "It is the Spirit who gives life;
the flesh profits nothing; the words that
I have spoken to you are spirit and are life.

The Great Serpent realizes how the lower
nature of Mankind seeks to protect as well
as provide for itself first and foremost. Few
will wrestle successfully against the inherient
evil bondage within themselves.

Job 2:4-5 English Standard (ESV)
Then Satan answered the LORD and said,
"Skin for skin! All that a man has he will
give for his life. [v5] But stretch out your
hand and touch his bone and his flesh,
and he will curse you to your face."

What are these vile merchants of fortune
doing these days? They are selling their
goods/services using every advantage of
money, power, sorcery and sex appeal.

I am not saying nor am I in any way against
transacting business. I am, however, highlighting
how the End-Of-Days corruption from the
Merchants will match-up with the Great Serpent
until they will be united in every way possible.

Revelation 18:3 KJV
For all nations have drunk of the wine of
the wrath of her fornication, and the kings
of the earth have committed fornication
with her, and the merchants of the earth
are waxed rich through the abundance of
her delicacies.

Revelation 18:11 KJV
And the merchants of the earth shall weep
and mourn over her; for no man buyeth their
merchandise any more:

Revelation 18:15 KJV
The merchants of these things, which were
made rich by her, shall stand afar off for
the fear of her torment, weeping and wailing

Revelation 18:23 KJV
And the light of a candle shall shine no more
at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom
and of the bride shall be heard no more at all
in thee: for thy merchants were the great men
of the earth; for by thy sorceries were all
nations deceived.
When that time comes and there will be no longer
any chance or hope for faith, then the light will be
extinquished for the Merchants.

Teach/Lead & Deliver Me

Oh LORD, teach and lead me in:
Thy Way
Thy Walk
Thy Will
Thy Word
Thy Water
Thy Walls
Thy Wells (gangsta' d-Wells)

Deliver me, Oh LORD, from deceptions of:
Sin
Satan/serpents
Self
Situations/Circumstances
Social-Pressures

The Great Reversal

John 9:39    NASB
And Jesus said, "For judgment I came
into this world, that those who do not
see may see; and that those who see
may become blind."

The Great Reversal = Seeing If Blind
& Not Seeing If Not Blind

The judgment of Jesus begins with a
person's own self-evaluation. He will
begin His work of salvation exactly
where He finds each individual.

He made inroads to reveal their
thoughts and ideas, values and closely
guarded beliefs privately held deep
within each person's own inner soul.

He connected to each person's secret
place of their own heart. The miracle
revealed in His work started with their
own specific appraisal of how they would
describe themselves to themselves as
well as how they communicated to others.

He readily acknowledged how many would
not receive Him by faith. He entered into
our inner circle of community with His
goal of making us an offer for salvation
from our own sin and shame.

However, given this reveal, Jesus never
made any guarantee that everybody who
heard Him would perceive and receive Him.
He fully believed in the Old Testament
that many would not receive Him:

Matthew 13:13-14   NASB
"Therefore I speak to them in parables;
because while seeing they do not see,
and while hearing they do not hear,
nor do they understand. [v14] In their
case the prophecy of Isaiah is being
fulfilled, which says, 'YOU WILL
KEEP ON HEARING, BUT WILL
NOT UNDERSTAND; YOU WILL
KEEP ON SEEING, BUT
WILL NOT PERCEIVE ..."

Even His own mother, Mary, was given
a prophetic warning about this great reversal:

Luke 2:34-35    NASB
And Simeon blessed them and said to Mary
His mother, "Behold, this Child is appointed
for the fall and rise of many in Israel, and
for a sign to be opposed, [v35] and a sword
will pierce even your own soul to the end
that thoughts from many hearts may be
revealed."

Nobody was exempt from His judgment, not
even His own family.
