THE GREAT EXCHANGE
Part XLVII
The Great Exchange has sought to document the incredible
role reversal which occurred at the cross of JESUS CHRIST, and we have likened this to the
phrase The Great Exchange.
Not only did Jesus exchange His holy life for our existence
in this world, but He moved in those who recognized His amazing plan, even as
He fulfilled His promise to inhabit the believer.
“Sing and rejoice, O daughter of
Zion: for, lo, I come, and I will dwell in the midst of thee, saith the Lord (Zechariah
2:10).
As descendants of Adam and Eve, earthbound mankind was, and
is, permanently barred from the eternal life which was enjoyed by our ancestors
in the Garden.
In the LORD’s astonishing plan, over the course of
centuries, He continually manifested the triune architecture associated
with salvation – and this thread of thought also served the purpose of
instructing His people concerning aspects of His own divine nature.
As we’ve repeatedly shown, in what we call the Triuniverse,
as God was separated from fallen man because of His divine existence and our
sinful nature, He engineered the office of the Mediator, who would act
as His agent, between Himself and mankind.
The pattern consistently shows us that God initially chooses
to utilize a single individual, who would then spread His word until that Mediation
functions in a collective sense. This begins immediately after the fall in
Eden, when the LORD formally recognizes the infraction, as Adam was seeking to
hide from God because he was naked.
Once the Spirit of God had vacated contact with Adam and
Eve, because they had disobeyed God and eaten the forbidden fruit, they
immediately became aware of the fact that they were naked. This marks the
cessation of union with God, and points us to a conscious awareness of our
earthly environment.
This is also the first instance of Death in
the Bible, as God killed animals in order to clothe the couple.
“Unto Adam also and to his wife did
the Lord God make coats of skins, and clothed them” (Genesis 3:21).
Thus the drama that is the Great Exchange
began. Here we see the trio of players in the eternal tale, which has
God, now separated from His creation in the form of the fallen Adam and Eve,
and the innocent animals that die in order to provide the skins that will cover
the first couple.
As there are strains of this process in every biblical
account in the Scriptures, the cycle progressively provides more information
each time it occurs. However, in the early stages before the earth was heavily
repopulated after the great flood of Noah, the episodes mentioned in Part XLVII
of the Great Exchange are similar to that of Adam and Eve.
When Abraham, who is clearly chosen by the
LORD to fulfill His purpose, has a son in his old age, we again see the Death
which occurs as a result of the pattern that is emerging. God tests Abraham by
instructing him to sacrifice his beloved son Isaac.
In this important account – which occurs long before
the time of Moses who administers the Ten Commandments -- God
will decisively indicate that there is to be no human sacrifice to Him.
Although the LORD has instructed Abraham to sacrifice Isaac,
God has no intention of allowing it to occur. Thus, the heathen societies which
were already developing at that time were put on notice that the God of Adam,
Noah, and Abraham, will never sanction this type of sacrifice.
In the story, Abraham takes Isaac to a mountain, and tells
him they are going to offer a sacrifice to the LORD. A little known detail is
how Abraham takes with him two young men of his growing family –
and they provide the beginning of a long line of two witnesses
concerning events which were then unfolding.
Obviously, the LORD will not allow Abraham to sacrifice his
own son, and specifically tells him so. God then arranges for a ram whose horns
have become entangled in the brush, as the animal will again serve as the
innocent sacrifice for mankind’s ongoing sinful nature.
“And Abraham lifted up his eyes,
and looked, and behold behind him a ram caught in a thicket by his horns: and
Abraham went and took the ram, and offered him up for a burnt offering in the
stead of his son” (Genesis 22:13).
We might note the subtle shades of Prophetic Metaphor are
already beginning at this early date, as the hapless ram, immobilized because
of his predicament, foreshadows Christ wearing a crown of thorns, as he is led
to the slaughter.
“And the soldiers [formed] a
crown of thorns, and put it on his head” (John 19:2).
Virtually every significant account in the Old Testament has
parallel elements of a similar nature. However, the premiere example of the
triune alignment seen in the shadow that is this world, was Moses,
as he was uniquely raised up by the LORD as the pivotal figure in the Old
Covenant.
In the days of Moses, the people who were chosen by God had
become known as Israelites because they were descended from Jacob -- whose name
was changed to Israel -- to signify the fact that he continued
the lineage of Abraham whom God had chosen.
As we all know, the large number of Israelites had come to
be slaves in the powerful Egyptian empire.
When God heard the cries of the Israelites in bondage, the
triune alignment was to be further revealed, as the Egyptians were clearly
oppressing the LORD’s mediator, who was Moses.
To the Israelites, Moses was the Mediator
between them and God, offering Life through the
authority of the LORD. But to the Egyptians, Moses was also the Mediator
from God, but the Egyptians were threatened with a supernaturally delivered Death,
through the irresistible power of the LORD.
The reader will note that these parallel structures are both
triune, with Moses functioning as the Mediator
between God and Israel, as well as the middleman between the LORD and the
Egyptians.
However, the promise of salvation was ever present in both
sides of the equation, as Moses repeatedly offered the cessation of the plagues
striking Egypt – if they did the will of the Father and released the
people the Lord had chosen.
The culmination of the tale is obviously the Exodus,
where Israel passes through the watery Death of the Red Sea, even
as the Egyptians, moving in opposition to the will of the Lord, were destroyed.
With this sharp contrast, we again see the triune alignment, wherein God,
and the Israelites led by Moses, are conducted to Life
in the Spiritual realm by obeying the LORD.
Conversely, on the opposite side of the formula, we see God,
and the Egyptians led by the foolish leadership of the Pharaoh,
conducted to Death in the very same arena.
The knowledge imparted through such accounts is clear. If we
yield to the leadership of the “Pharaoh” (a Prophetic Metaphor
if there ever was one), only ruin awaits.
“Know ye not, that to whom ye yield
yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to who ye obey; whether of sin
unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?” (Roman
6:16).
In the cumulative knowledge conveyed via the Scriptures, we
learn the Good News is the ultimate Mediator sent by the LORD is
the “Good Shepherd,” and He will lead us to the allegorical
“Green Pastures” which we all seek.
“The Lord is my shepherd:
I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he
leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he
leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s
sake” (Psalm 23:1-3).
After Israel beholds the destruction of the Egyptians, and
the Israelites are gradually conformed to the image of Moses, the Mediator of
the Old Covenant, we begin to see traces of wisdom in God’s chosen.
“And Moses came and called for the
elders of the people…And all the people answered together, and said, All
that the Lord hath spoken we will do” (Exodus 19:7,8).
At this juncture, the angelic architecture is taking shape,
as we now see all Israel as a larger form of the Mediator. Thus
we have God, Israel as His Mediator, and all the other nations.
“At the same time, saith the Lord,
will I be the God of all the families of Israel, and they shall be my people.
You only have I known of all the families of the earth” (Jeremiah
31:1; Amos 3:2).
In this structure, God seeks to Mediate between Himself and
all of the nations of the world. As he blesses Israel openly, the idea is the
chosen family of God is to export His righteousness to the Gentile nations.
It is after the Exodus from Egypt that the LORD provides
further glimpses into the true nature of the Triuniverse, through
the other two characters in the sequence. Aaron, who is the
brother of Moses, and Miriam, who is his sister,
step into the spotlight.
They were present from the beginning, as Miriam was
instrumental in the survival of the infant Moses, for the Pharaoh had decreed Death
for all the Hebrew babies, when he saw their numbers increasing. Miriam
is the one who was present when the mother of Moses set the child adrift in an
ark, in the hope that he would be adopted by an Egyptian.
“And the daughter of Pharaoh came
down to wash herself at the river…and when she saw the ark…she sent
her maid to fetch it” (Exodus 2:5).
As this sequence develops, we see another aspect of the Great
Exchange, as the lowly position of Moses, born into Hebrew slavery, is
abruptly traded for the privileged status of being raised by the daughter of
Pharaoh.
When Moses is called by the LORD to confront the Egyptians,
and demand they set the Israelites free, his brother Aaron is
called to the role of prophet, and he performs miraculous feats on behalf of
Moses.
“And Moses and Aaron went in unto
Pharaoh…and Aaron cast down his rod before Pharaoh, and before his
servants, and it became a serpent” (Exodus 7:10).
Thus Aaron and Miriam have a
significant standing among the Israelites as they leave Egypt. When the pair
begins to resent Moses making decisions in which they were not consulted, the triune
alignment again resurfaces; but this time it addresses the Spiritual
configuration which will illustrate the superiority of what is revealed to be
the “third part.”
The prophet Zechariah records how the LORD
shows a distinct separation of the third part, as He reveals this aspect
of the epic truth through the prophet.
“And it shall come to pass, that in
all the land, saith the Lord, two parts therein shall be cut off
and die: but the third shall be left therein. And I will bring the third
part through the fire, and will refine them” (Zechariah
13:8,9).
This example certainly does not indicate that Aaron
and Miriam are lost. It is designed to show the superiority of the “third
part,” as Moses is a prophetic figure anticipating the Son
of God Jesus Christ, as the third part of the Trinity
the Father has ordained for the role of redeemer.
In short, Christ is the Son of God – who is a Spirit
– and He is designated from the very beginning to function as the eternal
Mediator, who will bridge the gap between lost mankind, and our
Holy Creator.
In fact, in the New Testament where we learn many of the
details that are concealed in the Old Covenant, we find that Jesus was present
when God called Moses to serve Him, thus prefiguring the incarnation of Christ.
The prophet Stephen, as he was rehearsing the matter of the
ministry of Moses before the priests who would shortly murder him, was
summarizing the calling of Moses.
“This is that Moses, which said
unto the children of Israel, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto
you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear. This is he, that
was in the church in the wilderness with the angel which spake to him
in the mount sina” (Acts 7:37, 38).
By referring to the assembly of Israel as the
“church” (an impossibility according the Rapture Cult
which strictly separates Israel and the church), the Holy Spirit was hinting
that Christ was present in the wilderness calling of Moses.
Moreover, in Stephen’s detailed defense of the Gospel,
the fact that he cited the prophecy that God would “raise up unto you of
your brethren…a prophet” that Israel would be
required to hear (Deuteronomy 18:19) in the very same
sequence, the anointed statements further connect Christ to Moses in a
pre-incarnate appearance all the way back to the Exodus.
But a resumption of the multitude of examples of The
Great Exchange will have to wait for our next installment.

Christian Media has an eye-opening, on-demand video
elaborating on the crucial facts seen in the above article —
which also includes predictions concerning the enormous turn of events
associated with the present political tumult in America – especially with
reference to the American diplomatic recognition of Jerusalem as
the capital of the political state known as Israel.
We also publish a weekly news synopsis summarizing what has
occurred each week (The ChristianMediaDaily News – The Week In Review).
In addition to this, we produce a twice weekly issued companion letter
commenting on the material seen in each chapter of THE
CHRISTIAN MEDIA COMMUNIQUE. The latest edition of that letter
(entitled the Christian Median MINISTRY STATUS REPORT or MSR)
has even more prophetic projections concerning the amazing explosion of
prophetic understanding which has occurred at the Christian Media
ministry.
Further, we have 24/7 Radio Streams, a telephonic version of
the radio stream where the Christian Media Network can be heard on the
phone, and also an additional online video program dealing with
Health and Survival, as well as other regularly issued videos on
multiple websites which elaborate on doctrine, and identify specific False
Prophets the believer should avoid.
However, the adversary has already sown tares in this
vineyard (II Thessalonians 2:7), and we choose not to provide the
website links with the video elaborating on the present prophecy
writing here, as those who think they’re doing God service are tirelessly
trying to excise the truth from the Internet (John 16:2).
The concept of Temporal Recapitulation (Twin
Timelines) occurs here every day, as every time we send out our emails
to the Christian Medians, a Judas within our ranks (as a false witness
controlled by Hell), reports us to the Spam authorities
(controlled by Death), who seek to kill the Word by shutting down
the websites that disperse the prophetic word to the Remnant (filled with the Life
of the LORD).
Viewing of the online video on this subject is completely
free (as is the receipt of this weekly Communique), and we greatly
desire as many as possible will see it (a new video will replace it in another
week), but to examine this subject further, we ask for a green light from you
to send you the link. Because we refuse to “cast [our] pearls
before swine” (Matthew 7:6), our materials are only sent for a
brief period, in the hope the recipient will realize the importance of this
mission, and decide they should be a part of what is occurring at Christian
Media.
Further, because there are many vested interests which are
threatened by the content the Christian Media ministry provides, regular
efforts are made to penetrate our ranks – including even hacker attacks.
Incredibly, we’ve already proven that
“Christian” parties, members of the “Church” that are
moving in the Spirit of Hell, have actually hired hackers (moving
in the Spirit of Death) to attack our websites (Galatians
4:29).
Such are moving in the Spirit of the Pharisees and Sadducees
who came before them.
Thus, we desire to part company with the tares (II John
1:10) that are insincere about further examinations of the truth of the Gospel,
so we send the links to our Internet materials via surface mail.
As we move through the Spiritual wilderness beyond the veil
of this world, even our Internet domains are periodically shut down by the dark
powers, so we urge all those who hear the voice of the LORD in these Communiques
to seek the LORD while He may yet be found. As those who have inherited
the light of God through Christ’s marvelous work,
“[We] must work the works of him that sent
[us], while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work” (John
9:4).
To get our current Internet links, and receive full access
to Christian Media materials, please get in touch with us, to indicate
your support of the LORD’s work at Christian Media.
We need your email address, and more importantly, your
postal mailing address as we no longer post the website locations of our many
sites in our mass emails. This is because the Internet powers (and the apostate
“believers” who disobey Christ’s clear instructions
concerning those they perceive to be the “wheat” or the
“tares)” are manifesting whose child they really are with their
actions.
We will send our friends all the Internet contact data via
surface mail, which you can refer to on an ongoing basis.
Further, as many Internet Service Providers (ISP) and
big tech (such as Googoliath) now censor Christian material, when we send
prophecy information to those who love the truth, and it “bounces”
back because you are being censored (and you don’t know it, because
you never see what is being held back from being delivered to you), on
at least one occasion, we will print out the rejection notice and mail it to
you via surface mail, so you can do something about it.
If you’ve already responded with a YES! and
your name and mailing address after receiving a prior issue of this
Internet periodical, you do not need to reply again, as the links we send you
through surface mail provide you with an offline record on how to access all of
our websites.
Alternatively, to be removed from the database sending out
our information, simply call 541/899/8888 and leave the name and
address to be removed from our database on the voice mail. Alternatively, if
you have texting capability, you can do the same by calling 541/930/4440
and texting the information.
Those who have
our email can certainly email us with any issues you may have. Last but not
least, please remember Christian Media in your prayers of protection, as
you do your part in sustaining this ministry.
Maranatha!
