ONE FAMILY PLAN
Behind the Veil
“These things we also speak, not in words which man’s wisdom teaches but which the Holy Spirit teaches, COMPARING SPIRITUAL THINGS WITH SPIRITUAL.” (1 Cor 2:13)
"But the natural [soulish] man receives not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are SPIRITUALLY discerned." (I Cor 2:14)
“…THOU SHALT BE A MAN...”
(Ezekiel 28:9)
“THOU ART THE ANOINTED CHERUB THAT COVERETH…” (Ezekiel 28:14)
WE are the CHERIBUM. We are plastered all over the Temple – on walls – doors – ceiling – WE ARE THE TEMPLE!! In addition we are plastered throughout the Veil – the Body of Christ – WE ARE THE BODY OF CHRIST!! From Adam to Christ…
“By A NEW AND LIVING WAY, which he hath consecrated for us, THROUGH THE VEIL, that is to say, HIS FLESH…” (Heb 10:20)
“Make a curtain of blue, purple and scarlet yarn and finely twisted linen, WITH CHERUBIM WOVEN INTO IT by a skilled worker.” (Exodus 26:31)
A veil is used to cover the face, yet the face behind the veil sees everything – not as clear – but sees, nonetheless – looking through the Veil we “see” the Body of Christ [though not as clearly] – when the Veil is removed we see Him as He IS – the CHERUBIM!!
“And it shall come to pass IN THAT DAY, that THE LIGHT SHALL NOT BE CLEAR, NOR DARK: But it shall be one day which shall be known to the LORD, not day, nor night: but IT SHALL COME TO PASS, THAT AT EVENING TIME IT SHALL BE LIGHT.” (Zech 14:6-7)
“For NOW WE SEE THROUGH A GLASS, DARKLY; BUT THEN FACE TO FACE: now I know in part; but THEN SHALL I KNOW EVEN AS ALSO I AM KNOWN.” (1 Cor 13:12)
“But their minds were blinded. For until this day the same veil remains unlifted in the reading of the Old Testament, because THE VEIL IS TAKEN AWAY IN CHRIST.” (2 Cor 3:14)
“But even unto this day, when Moses is read, THE VAIL IS UPON THEIR HEART. Nevertheless when it shall turn to the Lord, THE VAIL SHALL BE TAKEN AWAY.” (2 Cor 3:15-16)
We ALL with UNVEILED faces [in a mirror!] are beholding the GLORY OF THE LORD – behind THE VEIL!!
“But WE ALL, WITH UNVEILED FACE, BEHOLDING AS IN A MIRROR THE GLORY OF THE LORD, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord.” (2 Cor 3:18)
We ALL will be “transformed” into the SAME image – the GLORY OF THE LORD!!
“But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, ARE BEING TRANSFORMED INTO THE SAME IMAGE from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord.” (2 Cor 3:18)
What is the GLORY OF THE LORD?! What is BEHIND THE VEIL?!! The CHERUBIM!! WE, THE CHERUBIM!! We are transformed into the image of the Cherubim! “…beholding as in a MIRROR…” !! We are seeing OURSELVES!!! We are Beholding as in a mirror the GLORY OF THE LORD! We are looking in a mirror at OURSELVES! WE are THE GLORY OF THE LORD!! Behind the Veil are 2 Cherubim that sit above the Ark of the Covenant… from Adam to Christ, we are the Cherubim hovered over the Mercy Seat.
Sits above – “is enthroned in” – notes from the Rotherham Literal Translation

“when he comes on that day to be glorified in his saints…” (1 Thessalonians 1:10)
WE ARE BEING CREATED…
“And creating [present tense] is God humanity in His image. In the image of God He creates it. Male and female He creates them.” (Genesis 1:27, Concordant Literal Translation)
THE KINGDOM IS WITHIN YOU
“nor will they say, ‘See here!’ or ‘See there!’ For indeed, THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS WITHIN YOU.” (Luke 17:21)
"…the words that I speak unto you, THEY ARE SPIRIT, and they are LIFE." (John 6:63)
“They were all baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea. They all ate THE SAME SPIRITUAL FOOD and drank THE SAME SPIRITUAL DRINK; for THEY DRANK FROM THE SPIRITUAL ROCK that accompanied them, AND THAT ROCK WAS CHRIST.”
(1 Cor 10:2-4)
We are the [spiritual] Temple. The Temple is where God resides. The Temple is the [spiritual] Garden of Eden. It is the [spiritual] New Jerusalem!
“…We do have such a high priest, who sat down at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in heaven, and who serves in the sanctuary, THE TRUE TABERNACLE set up BY THE LORD, NOT BY A MERE HUMAN BEING.” (Hebrews 8:1-2, NIV)
“They serve at a sanctuary that is A COPY AND SHADOW of what is in heaven. This is why Moses was warned when he was about to build the tabernacle: ‘See to it that you MAKE EVERYTHING ACCORDING TO THE PATTERN shown you on the mountain.’” (Hebrews 8:5)
“God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, DWELLETH NOT IN TEMPLES MADE WITH HANDS…” (Acts 17:4)
"you also, AS LIVING STONES, are BEING BUILT UP AS A SPIRITUAL HOUSE for a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ." (1 Peter 2:5)
“We have such an high priest, who is set on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens; A minister of the sanctuary, and of THE TRUE TABERNACLE, WHICH THE LORD PITCHED, AND NOT MAN.” (Heb 8:1-2)
“For CHRIST IS NOT entered into the holy places MADE WITH HANDS, which ARE THE FIGURES OF THE TRUE; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us…” (Heb 9:24)
NOWHERE TO HIDE… HE WILL FIND US ALL…
“WHITHER SHALL I GO FROM THY SPIRIT? or whither shall I flee from thy presence? If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there. If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea; Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.” (Psalm 139:7-10)
“Turn you at my reproof: behold, I WILL POUR OUT MY SPIRIT UNTO YOU, I WILL MAKE KNOWN MY WORDS UNTO YOU.” (Proverbs 1:23)
“that is, THAT GOD WAS IN CHRIST RECONCILING THE WORLD TO HIMSELF, not imputing their trespasses to them, and HAS COMMITTED TO US THE WORD OF RECONCILIATION.” (2 Cor 5:19)
