YT Lesson 3

Gods Eternal Covenant


Abraham
Recapping:

The law of life in the Genesis record states that all life must come
from preexisting life, meaning that all life must come from its own kind.
There is only one composition or structure of a seed body of humanity ~
flesh and bone.

And as Gods Eternal Covenant made with Himself declared in the


heavenly revelation states, Gods plan is for His creation of humanity in His
image ~ material and visible might become His sons ~ material and visible~
in His image after His likeness ~ Eternal and Righteous.

Thus, God must then have a Seed of Eternal life as all life must come
from preexisting life. Bodies of Eternal life must come from preexisting life.
Eternal life cannot be created. Life eternal however ~ Spirit being of Deity
can however share His Life with the body prepared.

It was absolutely necessary that the Covenant Son come in a body


prepared for him in order that the mortal body that could and would die that
God should raise it up a body of flesh and bone ~ a deathless body of
Eternal life.

As mentioned there is only one composition or structure of a seed


body of humanity ~ flesh and bone. Flesh and bone is a creation and flesh
and bone must come from preexisting life. Eternal life is not a created life.
Eternal life is life that is shared.

As we learned from our last lesson the birthed Son of God could not
come from mans seed as death must have no claim on the body of the
Seed through sin.

Hence by the Wisdom of God, the Covenant Son was first birthed in a
seed coat body of flesh and bone and blood ~ God took the living cells of
flesh of the womb of the woman and prepared a body ~ in the likeness of
man ~ sin apart.

1
YT Lesson 3

Born Again:

As Jesus body was not dead because of sin, death would have no
claim on His body ~ any ownership over His body to be destroyed and
perish.

Nor would the body of the Son of the Covenant suffer corruption, He
had the promise of His Father on the matter. Thou will not leave my soul
in hell, neither will thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption (Acts 2:27).

Thus, raised out from the dead the birthed Son of God was raised the
First Begotten Son ~ born again. Born again is a term that refers to the
resurrection of the body of seed. That which is birthed and that which
dies is a seed of flesh.

The day of Jesus begetting is the day of His resurrection as the


Scriptures declare (see Psalm 2:7, Acts 13:33, Hebrews 1:5, John
1:14;3:16 and Revelation1:5).

Thus, from the preexisting life of Gods Seed of Eternal life, God
provided the way ~ the only way for Life eternal to have an image and sons
in His likeness ~ through His Seed.

First is the natural ~ flesh, bone and blood, afterward the spiritual ~
flesh, bone and spirit life. The Eternal body for sons of God would be
brought forth from an Incorruptible Seed ~ a seed of flesh and bone of
Eternal life, immortal and imperishable.

The Begotten Son did not create a body of Eternal life ~ Eternal life
cannot be created ~all life must come from preexisting life and He does not
reproduce Eternal life. He shares Himself ~ He is Life Eternal. Man must
believe in the glory of the Son of the Covenant. Believe that Jesus is God
come in the flesh.

In this way ~ by faith believing ~ God would have born again sons of
God sharing His image.

2
YT Lesson 3

Each person born in a body of human flesh of the seed of man would
be offered the hope of Eternal life through a new birth of the incorruptible
Seed, Christ Jesus ~ a flesh and bone body of Eternal life.

Amazing Grace:

Now as amazing as the bestowing of the Fathers love on His


creation of mankind to be called sons of God, what is even more amazing,
is that before there ever was a virgin to prepare the body of the birthed Son
of God in the seed of the woman.

And before there was the confirmation in the Old Testament


Scriptures declaring this plan of God for His creation of humanity ~ all was
first declared in the heavenly revelation of Gods Eternal Covenant in the
stars.

Expressed not in the configurations of the stars but in the meanings


of the figurative message of the star names, with their signs. Seen in the
figurative message of the star names in the sign of the virgin ~ Virgo is the
manifestation of the wisdom of God in hope of Eternal life promised in the
Seed of the woman ~ illuminated to the whole world (John 3:16).
In this lesson, we are going to consider the stars with their signs in
the constellation of Virgo.

Jeremiah 10:12 says, He hath made the earth by His power, He hath
established the world by His wisdom, and hath stretched out the heavens
by His discretion [His will pleasure].

God designed, placed in sequence, gave color and named the


covenant star signs in the heavens to prophesy His Eternal Covenant
message (Psalm 147:7).
We live in a dimensional world (globe). The heavens are stretched
around the earth like a curved canvas. The sequenced order set in the
heavens cannot be altered.
The one-dimensional drawing of a circular star chart with the figures
of the 12 signs of the Zodiac and decans is not a multiple of pictorials but
one pictorial of forty-nine figures expressing Gods pattern of the law of
recurrence. What is the law of recurrence?

3
YT Lesson 3

The Law of Recurrence:


The Law of Recurrence in Hebrew literature is when an author gives
an executive summary so to speak and then fills in the specifics and the
details of the message or the person.

In Gods Eternal Covenant, the law is not speaking of the reoccurring


of events, but a recurrence of a person, the Son of the Covenant, He who
is, He who was, He who is to come ~ the Eternal.

When looking at the pictorials of the star chart ~ the right and left
as well as the reading order of the decans of the pictorial gives expression
to the figurative messages.

Order is everything. To read Gods Eternal Covenant as displayed


on the star charts out of order would be like starting a book at the end of
the story or in the middle ~ very confusing. You wouldnt have a clear
picture as to the plot.

For example:

The star names on the left side of the figure always speaks of the
humanity of the Birthed Son of God. The star names on the right side of the
figure always speaks of the Begotten Son ~ the Son of Glory.
You cannot separate the Birthed Son of God from the First Begotten
Son of God. Each pictorial figures The Man Christ Jesus the LORD of
Glory. In typology, the right hand is symbolic of power and fellowship.
Virgo:

Star names in Virgo include Ear of Corn or the Seed of Corn,


The Seed, The Branch Who Shall Come Down or Who Shall Have
Dominion, The Deliverer or Branch Who Cometh, The Son, and
Gloriously Beautiful.

Other sign names include The Virgin, Maid or Virgin,


Pureness, The Pure Virgin, An Ear of Corn, and The Place of
the Desired Branch.

4
YT Lesson 3

In the pictorial of the star chart the virgin woman is holding a branch
in each of her hands. In her left hand, she holds a branch of grain in a
downward position; in her right hand, she holds the same branch minus the
ears of corn lifted upward

The figurative message of the star names of the constellation, identify


Him who is to be the Seed of the woman ~ the Son given, with the
prophecies of Scripture as The Branch ~ the Coming One who called
Himself the corn of wheat (John 12:24) which falls into the ground and dies
in order to bring forth fruit of Eternal life ~ bodies of flesh, bone and spirit
being, bodies of glory in the image of God.

The Branch is a title referring to the Messiah ~ the King of the Jews,
of the nation Israel. Thus, the Messiah is The Branch of the family tree
of the sons of Israel. He is the bough of Life the incorruptible Seed, He is
~ the Word of God.

The three constellations (decans) associated with the sign Virgo are
Coma, Centaurus and Bootes. Each decan constellation fills in details of
the Person and Work of the Covenant Son announced in Virgo and must
be read in the correct order of the pictorial.

Decan 1 ~ Coma:

The first decan in Virgo is Coma. The decan is known as The


Desired or Longed For.

Star names identified with Coma are Who Bears and The
Virgin Who Carries. The decan names emphasize the Desired or
Longed For ruler of the nations.
The star names and star-chart drawings of the of Virgo, the virgin,
and her decan Coma, the virgin, reveal two women ~ one Seed. This
begs the question of how is it that two virgins are in the sign of Virgo. How
can there be two women and only one Seed?
In figurative message of the star names in the sign Virgo is the
understanding that the woman figured is the nation Israel; and the decan
Coma is the Jewish virgin mother, Mary, who conceives and bears a son
~ identified in Isaiah 7:14 as Immanuel, God with us.

5
YT Lesson 3

Immanuel is Spirit Being of Deity clothed in a garment of flesh and


bone of her seed. Thus, the child born to the Jewish Virgin Mary prepared
in the womb by means of the power of the Highest overshadowing her is
the Son given, the Branch of the family tree of the nation Israel (Isaiah
9:6) ~ the Longed For Son, the Desired of all nations.

Figuring the King /Priest raised out from the dead to rule the nations
of Gods Kingdom. The Sovereign of heaven above and earth beneath.

Although Israels Messiah, Jesus the Christ of God ~ the covenant


Son is not yet recognized or acknowledged by the nation or other nations
as the Desired or Longed For, He is nonetheless the universal ruler
of all the earth ~ He is Gods Authority the heavens declare it.

When the Longed For Son, the Desired, returns to set up His
kingdom of God on earth, Israel on that day will look on Him whom she
pierced, and mourn Him, as her only son (Zechariah 12:10, John 19:37).

As a regenerate nation, she will be the virgin that the sign of Virgo
declares she is. In her history as a nation, she played the harlot and had
many lovers; but on the day of her redemption, she will be a virgin who has
never known a man and receives her Longed For and Desired King.

Decan 2 ~ Centaurus:

The second decan in the constellation Centaurus also known as


The Despised Sin Offering.
Several star names identified with Centaurus are the
Heretofore and the Hereafter, The Pierced or Who Pierces and
The Appointed Dies, and The Bruised.

Jesus as the Despised One the despised sin offering rejected of


men, Pierced would not appear as a conqueror at His first coming, but
Hereafter at His second coming, all that has been accomplished by the
grace of God will be made manifest.

At His second coming God will destroy all enemies, with the final
destruction being the last enemy death (1Corinthians 15:26). The One who
was Pierced will Pierce, The Appointed [who] Died, The Bruised ~
He is the warrior of Righteousness, He will be declare the Conqueror.

6
YT Lesson 3

Decan 3 ~ Bootes:
The last prophetic revelation in the constellation Virgo is the third
decan Bootes is also known as The Herdsman ~ He Who Is
Coming.

Star names identified with Bootes are The Shepherds Crook,


The Preserver or Guardian, The Pierced, Who Bruises, Who
Separates, and The Most Beautiful.

A shepherd is a guide to His flock. He subdues, rules and governs


them. The tool of the shepherds authority is his rod and staff. The
shepherds rod and his staff are the same instrument, but they are used
differently.

The instrument is a branch that has been cut off from its life source.
Cut off, the branch is known as a rod. The shepherds rod is a weapon
used against enemies and his staff is the symbol of authority to discipline
his flock. The shepherds staff shows the concern and compassion that he
has for His flock and is a symbol of comfort and longsuffering.

Bootes is the resurrected Shepherd King Priest, The Branch


The Son, who comes to be the guardian of His own. The Branch of
the family tree, the rod of Gods authority, becomes the staff of comfort and
longsuffering.
The reigning power and authority of the kingdom will be peace and
righteousness. This kingdom will have absolute rest from its enemies.

The Shepherd King Priest will be the guardian of the flock or


household of the sons of God.

Timeline:

Thus, when the fullness of time was drawing near for God to send
forth His Covenant Son made of woman (see Galatians 4:4) God in His
foreknowledge had just the man for the task.

Before we consider Gods man, lets consider the timeline that has
developed the last couple lessons. Gods Eternal Covenant was planned in
Eternity past before the creation.

7
YT Lesson 3

In Genesis 1:14 On the fourth day of creation, as a result of


separating light from the darkness and creating the great light (the sun) to
rule the day and the lesser light (the moon) to rule the night, God created
the dimension of time.

Prior to sun, earth, and moon rotations and orbits, upon which we
base our seconds, hours, days, months, seasons, and years, there was no
definable time as we know it today, only eternity.

Thus, with the creation of the light holders comes the revelation of
the plan manifested in the heavens. Now we come to Gods man through
whom His Seed Christ will come.

Generations and generations have passed from the manifestation of


the plan in the heavens to Abrahams day declaring the law of recurrence.

In Virgo with her first decan: He who is, in Centaurus, He who was
and in Bootes, He who is coming.

Thus, from the creation of the first man to Abraham is 20 generations


and many more generations will pass before Gods Seed Christ will be
birthed.

Abraham:

We are first introduced to Abraham in the genealogy of Noahs sons


in Genesis 11. The wonderful thing about the man Abraham, first called
Abram was he was an ordinary every day man. Just your average Joe.
There was absolutely nothing special about him in terms of what the world
would consider quality star power.

As a matter of fact, he was an idolater who worshiped the host of


heaven. He had no idea who the God of Glory is. But he had desire. He
wanted to know the God of Glory and he also had a great need.

In the east where Abraham was from, to be childless was a


considered great shame. Abraham had no seed as his wife Sarai was
barren (see Genesis 11:30).

8
YT Lesson 3

God knowing that this man would command his children and his
household to keep the way of the LORD to do justice and judgment
appeared unto him in the land of Mesopotamia ~ in Ur of the Chaldeans
(see Acts 7).

God promised the man that He would make of him a great nation,
and that He would bless him, and make his name great. And that he would
be a blessing to others.

Not only that, God would make the nation of this man a nation of
kings and priests and would provide land to disperse them and all the
families ~ all the nations of the earth would be blessed by him (see
Genesis 18:18,19).

Genesis 12:

Basically, the instructions given Abraham in Genesis 12 were simply,


you follow me and Ill do all that I promised. The LORD had told him Get
out of your country, from your kindred and from your fathers house unto a
land that I will show you and the rest as they say is history.

Trust and obey. You can image the thrill it was when the God of
Glory appeared to him with the wonderful announcement of His wonderful
plan?
Thus, following God by faith not knowing where he was going
Abraham came to the land of Canaan which the LORD gave him in
promise, for a Land of Promised.

In Genesis 13 and 14 there is a lot of living that Abraham does and


he experiences much of the faithfulness of God. Finally, after years of
following the LORD seals the deal for all that He promised Abraham in
Genesis 15. The chapter is long and full of figurative symbolism.

God would make for Himself a Covenant People ~ a nation, and a


give them land to disperse on which they would receive through
inheritance.

The people would be of the family tree of Abraham and from that tree,
The Branch would come.
9
YT Lesson 3

Within the chapter the LORD signifies He promises to Abraham as


authentic with the witness of a twofold testimony ~ the first ~ is Gods
Eternal Covenant in the stars with their signs.

The second ~ is the blood covenant made on earth signifying the


Blood Covenant made in heaven.

Within the twofold testimony given to Abraham, a singular truth is


manifested. In Gods Eternal Covenant written in the heavens, all is done
outside of time, purposed in heaven and in eternity past. In the cutting of
the Covenant, one sees how all will be carried out in time upon earth.

Genesis 15:1a,5a:

Thus, the LORD came to Abraham in a vision and then brings him
forth to look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to
number them.

Now then, a couple weeks ago I said that the LORD scattered His
creation of humanity at the tower of Babel in Genesis 12 ~ actually the
chapter is Genesis 1:8.

Without going into too much detail of that which took place in Genesis
11 ~ the whole earth was one language ~ as the family was one family ~
the sons of Noah.

Having found a plain in the land of Shinar and dwelling there they
built a city and tower ~ a place of worship that reached into the heavens for
the purposes of worshiping the host.

The creation of humanity changed the glory of the uncorruptible God


into an image made like to corruptible man, and birds, and four-footed
beasts and creeping things (see Romans 1). They changed the meanings
of the figurative message of the names of the stars with their signs!

That is what Abraham understood ~ until that night under the stars
with the LORD.

10
YT Lesson 3

Stars with their Signs:

The Hebrew words for tell and number have the same meaning to
recount, to relate, to declare. The LORD is asking Abraham to tell Him, to
relate to Him the meaning of the stars with their signs if thou be able.

There, under the stars with his Master, the eyes of Abrahams
understanding were enlightened, that he might see the prophetic outline of
Gods plan in His Anointed Son, as Abraham stood there looking up and
recounting the stars in their order.

Unfolding each of the heavenly signs in the stars, Abraham saw a


picture of a prophetic event in each sign concerning the Covenant Son ~
the Coming One, as Gods plan of redemption unfolded.

There Abraham stood in awe of God Almighty in the wonder of the


thought of the Coming One on the throne of an established Kingdom and
willing subjects from all nations, and then the LORD finished part one of the
testimony saying to him, So shall your Seed be (Gen.15:5).

Galatians 3:16 Now to Abraham and his Seed were the promises
made. He saith not, and to seeds, as of many; but as of One, and to thy
Seed, which is Christ.

The One who was to be the Heir to all things was to come through
Abrahams loins. The Covenant Son ~ Gods birthed Son would be a son of
a descendant of Abrahams seed.

God would give Abraham a son for the dust seed of the nation, which
would bring forth Him, the Heir of all things (Rom.4:13; Heb.1:1-3).
Abraham was not to be childless. The Heir was to be born of a virgin
(Is.7:13-14). The virgin would be a daughter of a descendant of Abraham.

The nation to come of the seed of Abraham was purposed to be the


head nation of the whole kingdom on earth (Deut.26:19; 28:1, 13).
Abrahams Heir was to be the King and His Kingdom would last forever (see
Is.9:6-7; Dan.2:44; 7:13-14; Lk.1:30-33).

11
YT Lesson 3

Can you imagine? It is too wonderful! There stood Abraham a former


idolater of the host of heaven now enlightened to the truth in Gods Eternal
Covenant declared in the heavens ~ the heavens shall declare His
righteousness says the Scriptures (Psalm 50:6).

After Abraham had understood that which the LORD had revealed to
him in the vision concerning his Seed, he believed in the LORD and the
LORD counted it to him for righteousness.

Genesis 15:6:

The verse is a play on words. Abraham is to count the stars and the
LORD counted what Abraham counted and believed ~ as righteousness.

Righteous:

What does it mean to be counted righteous? Righteousness is an


attribute of God and only God. Believing in the LORD Abraham saw in the
heavenly revelation the truth of Gods Eternal Covenant and God counted it
to him for righteousness.

Righteousness is the gift of Grace ~ it is the power of God unto


salvation shared with His sons of God to rule over the lawlessness of the
self-will of man. Righteousness is a state of being and the evidence of
sonship.

Which brings us to an interesting thought. Abraham followed God


many years and learned of God of many things, but not until he believed
God ~ believed in His Anointed Son did Abraham become a son of God.

All those years of following the LORD, Love led Abraham right into
His arms. Safe and secure. Generations later the twelve constellations of
the heavenly revelation of the Eternal Covenant would come to be
identified as the family crest of the household of Israel (Numbers 2).

This concludes our lesson. If youd like to prepare for the next lesson ~
please read Genesis 15: 7- 16.
