The Answer To The Universe

The Answer To The Universe is “beheld” with heart eyes in Revelation 5:6.

And I saw, and behold, in the midst of the throne, and of the four living creatures, and in the midst of the elders, was a Lamb standing, as having been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God, having been sent out into all the earth. (LITV)

“Beheld” is set in quotes to tell the reader that I mean a different aspect of the word than what is typically understood.

To “behold” is a type of seeing that you do with your heart to understand nature of being. What flows out of your heart identifies the nature of your being. By heart flow I mean your inner thought life spurned on by motivations and premises subconsciously hidden beneath like a well’s source. Every human operates by a heart trajectory that is completely inverse to and opposite of what we see in Revelation 5:6. So much so, that it is in our blind spot of awareness and life.

Hearts can detect life flow, which is why heart eyes can become illuminated (Eph 1:17-18). In the quote of Rev 5:6, focus in on the phrase: “a Lamb standing, as having been slain.” Notice that standing is a living and risen reality, while slain is a being killed and made dead reality. Said differently, standing represents a resurrection standing; slain represents the end of a dying process that makes dead. Understand this apparent contradiction with heart eyes and you can become illuminated to a type of being unimaginable without direct spiritual intervention. I’ve chosen these words carefully for your personal discourse with the Holy Spirit, Who is The Intervening Teacher and Illuminator.

Truly, truly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit. John 12:24 (ESV)

A seed falls to the ground and dies… this is a trajectory. If it dies, then it bears much fruit… that is also a trajectory. So, where do we see this dying and rising process combined? We see it in a seed’s cycle. Jesus is personally claiming to be The Dying Seed and Rising True Vine. A mistake would be to assume that the first dying trajectory ended at the cross, rather than it being indicative and typical of Who Jesus always is. For what does Heb 13:8 tell us? Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and forever. Who Jesus is-being is constant. God spoke the universe into existence the same way He saves us. There is no turning of shadows in Him (James 1:17).

…giving seed to the sower and bread to the eater, so shall my word be that goes out from my mouth; it shall not return to me empty, but it shall accomplish that which I purpose, and shall succeed in the thing for which I sent it. Isaiah 55:10b-11 (ESV)

In the quote above, Isaiah was pondering and contemplating this very reality of God speaking and creating in 6 days in Genesis 1. God’s Word goes out of His mouth, expressing His being and existing. Of course, Jesus is This Word and this Seed in John 1, Luke 8:10-12, and James 1:21. By seeing and “beholding” Jesus, we see Who The Father is-being, specifically What Kind He is within (John 14:9).

By “beholding” Rev 5:6’s “slain Lamb standing” by the Holy Spirit’s confirming brightness dawning in your heart, you begin to understand the nature by which our King governs and reigns. The world calls this foolishness. Paul said it was the power of God (1 Cor 1:18-25). Know your King; rather than just doing things for a correct religion (Matthew 7:21-23).
