God Intended YOU To Be HIGHER Than Angels

Now then, the most interesting thing in the world about this realm, as far as I’m concerned, is that it’s got a door. It’s got a door. There’s a door. You can get in and out of this place. Well, where does the door lead to? It leads into the spirituals. Alright, what about the other direction? Aha. What’s on the other side of the door going in the other direction? Nothing yet. Then God decides to create a universe that is almost, not quite, but almost the exact opposite of the first one, because everything in this universe will be visible. Everything in that one was invisible; everything in this one will be with dimension. That one was without dimension; everything in that dimension was spiritual. Everything in this dimension is material. Everything was spiritual; everything here is physical. Invisible. Visible. Physical. Spiritual. Without dimension, dimension, and I left one out now. What is the opposite of it? Well, what’s the opposite of material, without saying spiritual, material immaterial, without material, I suppose. No, they both seem to have light in them, or they’re going to have both of them have a light that reflects the nature of the creator.

The angels are light. The realm that is spiritual seems to be filled with light. I’m going to get to this in a minute, but they both have wind. Both of them have wind. Well, but we have to press the point of material creation. He comes in. He did all that in half a day. Now then, in just a second, He creates the material realm. Just let there be, and poof, here it comes. Galaxies, orbs, realms, universes, shooting stars, comets, nebulae, gases, everything from a galaxy to a neutron and a proton. It’s all weighable, and it has dimension to it.

Now, the thing that you have to remember is that no matter how far you travel in the physical realm, you can never reach the spiritual realm. It can’t be done with the greatest rocket ship that will ever be created. You cannot reach the spiritual realm by traveling a distance. There are the invisible heavens. There are the heavens you and I see when we look into the stars at night, and then there’s that area of the heavens between us and the clouds: the three heavens, and you cannot get to the third one by anything you do in the first and second.

The Lord stepped through that door, walked out, and said, “Let.” And He began creating. He just did it all like that. Genesis is so arresting. It says, “Oh, and He made the stars also.” The writer almost forgot the whole created universe. Oh, and He made the stars also. Then He spent five and a half days working on one little bitty place. The reason it took so long to work on that is that it was the only place in the material realm that would have life. I don’t think that statement will ever be disproved. I’m willing to be wrong, but it’s probably the only place in the material realm where life exists, and the incredible thing that took so long was that there were so many forms of life.

Now we go to the biological chart. Eternal Life, invisible, God, the highest form of life called Eternal Life. Right under it, angelic life, invisible, very fast, light, and spirit, very much like the first life, also spirit. Well, believe it or not, instead of going to the third form, the Lord drops to the bottom of the chart and starts working back up again. I think that’s curious; He’s saving the best for last, no question about it, so He now begins making the most primitive form of life, and it is visible. It’s an herb, just a little seed. It’s green. Then He makes the fish a little bit higher form of life. So, we got down here grasses. I don’t know if you know this, but bacteria are vegetables. I bet you didn’t know that. Bacteria are a vegetable. Ask a doctor. It’s a vegetable. It’s plant life. Right above that were the fish, and right above that is the bird of the air. And then, right above that, are the cattle.

Now then, each is progressing upward toward the angels. They’re really moving toward the angels. The herb has life but no consciousness and no soul. The fish have consciousness and just a tiny, little bit of a soul. The bird has consciousness and quite a bit of a soul. The soul is developing. The cattle come along, and the primates, and these creatures can out and out think; they have a very highly developed soul. So here we are, coming up with life forms, and what have we got? We’ve got the physical and the psychological, or the physical and the soul, all visible. The physical makes it immediately visible. The seed is visible. The fish is visible. The bird is visible. The animals are visible. They are material. They have dimension. They have souls; they have no spirits. They cannot have spirits because they do not belong to the spiritual realm. They belong to the material realm. The soul belongs to the material realm. The spirit belongs to the spiritual realm. The physical body belongs to the physical realm. There are no physical bodies in the other realm. Just spiritual bodies, consciousness in the other realm, but invisible consciousness.

In our realm, we’re now getting something physical and also conscious. When you get to the animals, they’re very self-con. They’re aware of themselves, and they can think. Have you ever seen the illustration of the…you can take a turkey, or a single brother, and face a turkey or a single brother into a V-shaped fence, and he will stand there and, mostly the turkey, he will pluck and pick and he will try to get through, with food right here, and he’ll stick his head through and he will just do everything on earth he can to get through; he cannot get through. If you place a dog right there, he will look at that food, he will look at that fence, and he’ll look at that fence, and he will turn around, and he will see if there’s an opening. Well, good night, there’s a huge opening to eat that food. He can think. He can reason. He can clearly reason and think, and if you’ve never owned a dog, I mean, those critters can get downright psychological with you. They’re con artists. Well, a turkey just can hardly figure that out. Some single brothers can. They can figure out how to turn around, walk around the fence, and get their food, but not all of them, I’ll tell you for sure, not all of them. Now you must think I think very lowly of single brothers. I think single brothers are the most important people in the whole world. For them, till they get married, they are very, very, very dumb, well, and very religious.

Physical and conscious life; let’s look at our chart again. Spirit, God, Life eternal…goes forever. Right under Him are the angels. Coming way down here, life with no consciousness, just physical, lives and dies quite quickly. The fish, little consciousness, physical, visible, a life that ends quite quickly. The bird has more consciousness and a life that goes on a little longer. The cattle are still visible to the physical eye, but quite limited. Very conscious. Earthly life. Earthly life. Earth life. Visible eye. Material life. Terminal life.

Now, there’s only one of those lives that has internal fellowship, and that’s the life of God. Now, it so happens that we find out this door allows the angels and God to come and make visits in the material world, but it is not their habitation. They don’t naturally live there. They always go back to the better place. They think it’s better; I don’t blame them. It’s their habitat. You and I prefer a house over a cave, a snake hole, a rat hole, or a treetop. We all tend to go to our habitats.

Now, then, I want you to see God about to create yet another creature. We’ve got a place right here on the biological chart waiting for Him. He will be unique. First of all, God makes him visible. He takes him out of clay, and the very clay screams: he belongs to the earth. He belongs to the material realm. It preaches a sermon; he belongs to the material realm. He belongs with the animals, and God forms this beautiful, sculptured, red-tinted dirt, and the angels are enthralled. They know in a moment that dirt is going to stir, and a living soul will stand up that is smarter and more intelligent than the animals, and who will rule the earth. God leans over the man and is about to touch him to bring him to life, but He stops. He stands up, and the wind of the earth is blowing in the face of God and is perhaps filling the nostrils of God if I can take my picture. Perhaps not, but the winds of the earth are blowing in His face. The angels are poised to watch this masterpiece come to life. Then God does an incredible thing. He lifts off the earth. He leaves the material realm, and He goes back through the door, and He enters heavenly places. He enters the invisible sphere. The spiritual sphere. The sphere that has no dimension. The spiritual sphere.

He enters again the realm that is natural to Himself, and He breathes in the wind of the heavenly places. He breathes into His being the wind of the spirituals, and now He turns, and He goes back through the door, and He descends to the earth. He comes to the side of the clay, and He reaches over at the very nostrils of this earthy masterpiece that He has sculpted, and He breathes, releasing an element of the other realm that doesn’t belong to this realm, that is foreign to this realm that has never been native to this realm, that is unlike this realm, that belongs to the other realm. He releases the realms of the spirituals, the realms of heavenly places. He blows it into the man, and the wind of heaven goes into the internal parts of this man, rolling, turning, pulsating, keeping the light of the heavens and the winds of the heavens, and comes into the inmost being of this dirt and begins to pulsate. God touches the man, and the man, having the dirt of the earth and the wind of the heavens combining with one another, man becomes out of this combination a living soul, and he stands up, and he’s like the angels, and he’s like God. He goes; he’s covered with light. The animals are not covered with light. Deep within him is a ball of light that belongs to another realm, and it has no dimension, and it has no end, and it cannot be measured, and the animals can’t even see it. But the angels can see it, and God can see it, and the man can see it. And that’s not all.

The animals can’t see the angels, but the man can see the angels. He can see them, for he is endowed with something from another realm and belongs to another sphere. Say, “Praise the Lord.” Praise the Lord. And he looks, and he can see God, and he has something of the wisdom of the other realm. He has something of the freedom of the other realm. He is free from dimensions. There’s a part of him that’s free from the material, that is free from the physical. It is free from the limitations and, I would almost say, the fears of confinement to this planet. He can see the unseen. He can see the invisibles. He can see the spirituals, and he can talk face to face with God unafraid. He knows who his Lord is. He knows who his God is. I think he probably recognized Gabriel. He also knew the animals. He is very wise. He could tell you the plants. He was there to rule.
