Out There
I've been continuing on in some meditations with regard to the celestial (light) body, and I know that this (body) too comes from within, and that it is the vehicle with/by which we can ascend in spirit and soul unto Mt. Zion and the New Jerusalem.
My friend Brad has been writing about "the 4th dimension" lately, and to borrow his term, I'll say here that the celestial body is the 4th dimensional body which was shown to us on the Mount of Transfiguration. Also, it seems that this body is that body which Adam and Eve (when lowered - dimensionally) lost, and thereby were found "naked.
Now, I don't want to go on too much about this here, because I have not great clarity about this yet, though I do have a burden to share certain things with you, some of which were sparked by a dream which I had last night...
Of all things, this dream was about an adulterous affair, and of a scene where one man was leaving the house of a woman (through the front door) just as this woman's husband was returning home (and was coming in through a side door of the same house). Upon awakening from this dream my first response was, "Lord, what the heck was that?" The interpretation was then given, which is that the man going out through the front door of the house represents OUR MORTAL BODY in which sin still dwells ("who shall save us from this wretched body of death?"), the woman in the dream represents THE SOUL which at certain times (though perhaps not often) plays the adulteress in that she gives into (and joins in with) the desires of the flesh (mortal) man, and the husband in the dream represents THE SPIRIT OF MAN, which upon "returning home" (being put back in right relationship with the soul) the soul then submits to, once again.
With regard to this dream, there is something coming forth now (by the Spirit) about the need for our soul to break free from its emotional ties with the corruptible body, to turn its affections fully toward the spirit and the incorruptible celestial body (which is being put on). Look at it this way: For most humans, the physical (natural) body expresses energy that is denser (at a lower vibration) than that of the soul, and the soul expresses itself in a denser energy field (at a lower vibration) than that of the spirit (especially the regenerated spirit). It is my understanding that the soul can rise quite quickly in its vibrational state though when it is attached to the much higher vibration (celestial) body. It is by way of this union then that one can ascend in spirit-body, soul and spirit into the 4th dimension, and this with all of the 4th dimensional senses intact! With this in mind, beloved, might it be that being "clothed with the house from heaven" is to fully "put on" the life-light-body which is able to swallow up the distorted soulic and physical bodies, and in this way THE WHOLE MAN is then able to resonate in full agreement with the 4th dimension? I think that this is probably so.
Now, Stephen Jones has written recently about how our spirit, soul, and body all have their own states of consciousness (you may want to read about that in his most recent web-blog). With this in mind, and in conjunction with all that I have already shared in this letter, just what might be our state of BE-ing when the collective consciousness of our spirit, soul, and body are all raised into the 4th dimension? Will this not be our attaining to "the first resurrection"? Perhaps...
Also, beloved (with regard to what I said earlier about our soul breaking its ties with the natural earthy body), think of what Paul wrote about "being absent from the (natural) body is to be present with the Lord," as I believe that there is an application of that verse which has to do with the mind, will, and emotions of man (his soul) being in full subjection to his spirit and these also in union with his celestial body. With regard to the natural body, it seems also that the "union" described here does have a very profound effect on the natural body too (for those who still posses it), and that this somehow relates to the raising of the Tabernacle of David. I'm not going to venture off into that subject here though.
Bless you.
