“Come Up Hither” Vs. the Doctrine of the ‘Rapture’
Monday, April 14, 2014 7:12
% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.
With the opening of the Sixth Seal of the Revelation of John (Chapter 6, verses 12-17), there occurs an instantaneous annihilation of, in this order, the “beast of the earth” consciousness of the ‘thinker’ and the “beast of the sea” consciousness of the “self”. And, in fact, there is an infinite distance between the consciousness that results from the opening of the Sixth Seal and the consciousness Created ‘by and in the image of God’ (Chapter 1, verse 27 of Genesis), which is what is signified and conveyed by the opening of the Seventh Seal (Chapter 8, verse 1 of the Revelation of John).
No words are conveyed during the Vision.
On the contrary, the Vision of the “Son of man” (or the “Night Journey” of Mohammed) conveys the Ten Principal Phonetic Tones of Creation; referred to as the “ten horns” in both the Book of Daniel and the Revelation of John; and obliquely referred to in the Thanksgiving Hymns of the Dead Sea Scrolls (written by Jesus) with the words:
“Thou bringest forth sounds according to their mysteries…
that they may tell of Thy glory
and recount Thy wonders
in all Thy works of Truth.”
Thus, the words “Come up hither” (Chapter 11, verse 12 of the Revelation of John) are never heard.
On the contrary, such a phrase is an infinitely faint expression in words of a transition of consciousness; that is, of the crossing of an infinite distance between the consciousness that results from the opening of the Sixth Seal and the consciousness conveyed with the opening of the Seventh Seal.
In other words, that infinite distance is bridged through the Vision of the “Son of man” which occurs over “the space of half an hour”.
