Christ gives us His flesh and blood because this is the most substantial, dramatic manner in which He can convey His incomprehensible love for us. The motivation for the new covenant is this tremendous love that is resident in God and is God.

The love of the Lamb for His Bride is awesome. We eat the Passover Lamb and this is how we are married to Him. The marriage is taking place now as Christ feeds the victorious saints with His own Life, His body and blood.

The resurrection is love calling to love; fire calling to fire. The resurrection may be much more individualized than we have realized. When the slain Lamb appears in the sky, those who live by His body and blood will be called up to the Lamb so He may once again be complete.

This kind of love is supremely powerful. It motivates God. It motivates the Lamb. It motivates us, but not until it is in us.

When the Lord Jesus hung on the cross His side was pierced. This was so we may have a place on which to be grafted. The wound was opened in Christ. A wound is opened in us. Wound is placed against wound and bound with grafting tape. Then slowly, slowly, slowly eternal life begins to flow from the vine into the branch.

Eve could not marry another because she was formed from Adam. She was Adam in another form.

So it is true that the Bride of the Lamb is formed from the Lamb. Christ, being God, cannot marry a human. He can only marry that which has been formed from Himself.

What I have just written is what the Lord God revealed to me in Iceland. It changed my thinking for eternity.

So much of Christianity is the exercise of a religion. I do not condemn it. We humans can only do what we know to do and are empowered to do.

I am certain however that God's love and human love are not only not the same emotion, but one may be hostile to the other.

It was human love that moved Peter to advise the Lord not to go to Jerusalem. But the Lord recognized the voice of Satan. Satan can move in the realm of human love but not Divine love.

So much of what we call love today is not love at all. In America it seems, more often than not, love is nothing more than physical, glandular lust, sometimes intensified by demons.

All unnatural sexual actions and exhibitions are not love at all, only excesses prompted by our glands, making clowns of us in the sight of the angels.

Pedophiliac behavior is lust, not love. The molestation of children is not love and rightly carries a heavy penalty in law.

One common imitation of love in the United States should be termed romanticism. It is not permanent love. Romantic love is the result of a mood or spirit that comes upon us. We say we "fell in love." This is a mood, it is not lasting love.

To be continued.
