He's Got Your Back
He's
Got Your Back:
Raising
his left hand, Baphomet said, “Don’t think I am some naïve
magician sitting in a protective circle, casting black spells, and
invoking demons to do my bidding. I am a god. Witches, warlocks, and
magicians worship me. I am full of all the power that exists in the
darkened spirit plane. My power is great, and my words bring death!”
Caleb
calmly and firmly replied, “A god you may be, but God you are not.
I serve the Timeless-One, and only He do I serve. He has called me to
be a high priest and a warrior. He has touched my heart, my mind, and
my soul. He that is touched by the Timeless-One cannot be touched by
evil.
You,
Baphomet, are pure evil and have no business being on this planet.
But
then again, maybe you do have a reason—to show everyone that the
Timeless-One is all powerful and you are nothing more than a fly that
needs to be squashed.”
The
above is taken from, “The Invitation” from, “The Caleb
Chronicles”.
Here
Caleb encounters a demon by the name of Baphomet. In the occult
world, in many sects Baphomet is regarded as a god-like creature.
Caleb
speaks to this demon calmly but firmly. Caleb is the one with the
Power, not Baphomet. Caleb is filled with all the fullness of the
Timeless-One. There is no reason to get excited, God is in control.
There
are many who believe that evil and good are equally powerful. WRONG.
We see that a lot in movies and TV, and sadly people believe it.
Let’s see what the Bible says about it.
Mat 8:31-32So
the demons begged Him (Jesus), saying, "If You cast us out,
permit us to go away into the herd of swine."
And He said to them, "Go."
So when they had come out, they went into the herd of swine. And
suddenly the whole herd of swine ran violently down the steep place
into the sea, and perished in the water.
Mat 10:7, 8
"And as
you go, preach, saying, 'The kingdom of heaven is at hand.'
"Heal the
sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out demons. Freely you
have received, freely give.
Jas 2:19You
believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe;
and tremble!
According
to Scripture demons are subject to Gods authority, they believe, they
know and they tremble.
If
the Timeless-One dwells in you, there is no reason to fear. If at
some time a person comes up to you hurling blasphemies and cursing
and in some kind of unholy rage, remain calm. Pray and firmly speak
the Name of Who dwells in you. Speak the Name of the Prince of Peace,
the King of Kings, the Lord of lords, the Savior of the world, the
only begotten Son of God, the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the
End, the First and the Last, the Word of God, the One Who holds the
Keys to death and hell, the One Who is returning as the Victorious
Ruler of the Universe, Jesus the Messiah, Jesus the Savior, Jesus the
Lion of the Tribe of Judah, Jesus the Lamb of God.
The
Timeless-One has got your back.
Selah,
I.H.G.

The Fire - A Prayer
Oh, Timeless-One,
We felt the fire of Your love,
We can smell the incense
Of Your glory.
We thank You for our deliverance,
We thank You for Your love,
We give You thanks, Mighty One,
We give You thanks and lift You up.
From the story, “The Fire” from The Caleb Chronicles.
2Ch 7:3 When all the people of Israel saw the fire coming down and the glorious presence of the LORD filling the Temple, they fell face down on the ground and worshiped and praised the LORD, saying, "He is good! His faithful love endures forever!"

1 COR 1:18
1Co 1:18, 19 For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who
are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
For it is written: "I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, And bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent."

Friend of God
Friend
of God:
Psalmus stopped
and turned around. With a loud voice and outstretched arms, he said
to Caleb, “Caleb. Warrior. High Priest! Slayer of demons! Friend of
God!”
The above is from
the story, “Psalmus” from The Caleb Chronicles.
John
15:12-15
"This
is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.
"Greater
love has no one than this, than to lay down one's life for his
friends.
"You
are My friends if you do whatever I command you.
"No
longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his
master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things that I
heard from My Father I have made known to you.
Did Buddha call
his followers friends? Do Muslims call Mohammad friend? Do you think
Satan calls his followers “friends”? I don't know, but what I do
know is that Jesus calls us His friends. I find that awesome. You,
me, us, we are friends of the Most High God, the Creator the
universe. And because He calls us friends, He laid down His life for
us. Isn't that amazing. Almighty God gave His life, so His friends
wouldn't have to. That, is a true Friend.
Remember:
We are Warriors
in a Holy War.
We are Priest's
in the Church of God.
We are to cast
out demons and heal the sick.
We are Friends of
God.
In Jesus Name.
Selah, I.H.G.

Aliens, take a few more:
Aliens,
take a few more:
“We
are looking for our friends that your Dark Eyes pulled in here,”
Caleb replied sternly.
“Mm
hm, mm hm. Well, they now . . . belong to us. They . . . are home . .
. now. Mm hm, mm hm,” said the demon.
“Listen,
little demon—” replied Caleb.
The
demon interrupted, “My . . . name is . . . Plague.”
Caleb
continued, “Listen, little demon, we are going to find my brother
and our friends and leave with them. And we might take a few more
people with us!”
“You
. . . may be . . . high priest at . . . High Rock . . . but . . . you
are . . . aliens here! And . . . you . . . will die . . . here!”
screamed Plague with much anger.
The
above is from the story, “The Black Dome” from The Caleb
Chronicles.
1.
We
are aliens here:
1Pe
2:11
Beloved, I urge you as aliens and strangers to abstain from fleshly
lusts which wage war against the soul. (NASB)
John
8:23
And He was saying to them, "You are from below, I am from
above; you are of this world, I am not of this world. (NASB)
2.
We are Priests and Warriors:
Rev
1:5, 6
and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn of the
dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To Him who loves us
and released us from our sins by His blood--
and
He has made us to be a kingdom, priests to His God and Father-to Him
be the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen. (NASB)
2Co
10:3, 4
For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the
flesh,
for
the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but divinely
powerful for the destruction of fortresses. (NASB)
As
Aliens, we
are not “earth dwellers”, those who make this planet their home,
but rather we are of a different world, a different society with
different rules. We don't abide by the laws of the flesh, but rather
we abide by the Word of the Lord, and His Word says, “Preach the
Gospel” and “Make disciples of all people”.
As
Priests and Warriors we
are always teaching the Word through our actions, our words and
behavior. And, we are always at war with the physical,
with spiritual forces and our own thoughts.
We
are Alien Priest Warriors on a mission
to bring Yeshuah Jesus to the “earth dwellers” and to help them
out of the “Black Dome”, earth.
There
is never enough going to heaven so, Aliens let's take a few more with
us.
Selah,
I.H.G.

Of the Three
Of the Three:
High
Rock is a community of about three thousand people. Surrounded
by a protective force, it lies in the middle of Mount Triune, which
cannot be found on any map because the Timeless-One has hidden it
from the world. In the day it looks as though it is raining crystals
and silver flakes; at night, it looks as though it is on fire. The
people call this “the protective hand of the Timeless-One.” No
evil can enter High Rock, unless allowed by the Timeless-One, and
then the evil has no power.
The
above is from the Introduction, from The Caleb Chronicles.
Mount
Triune, where the Village of High Rock lies is symbolic of the Holy
Trinity. I know the Holy Trinity is controversial in some circles,
but I myself do believe in the Trinity. The word “trinity” is not
in the Bible, but the concept is; the Father, the Son and the Holy
Spirit.
Mat
28:19 Go
you therefore and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of
the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit,
In
Genesis
1:1
the Hebrew word for God is Elohim, which is plural. Then in Genesis
1:26 it
says, “Then
God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our
likeness;” God
is not talking to angels, because angels do not have the ability to
create. No, this is the Unity
of the Godhead,
the
Trinity,
the
Three,
the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.
The
introduction to The Caleb Chronicles says, that High Rock sits right
in the middle of Mount Triune. So,
High Rock is precious, valued, and
important
to the Timeless-One, just
as we are. Not only does Elohim, the Triune God watch over us as a
cherished treasure, but He, the Trinity dwells in our very being.
Rev
3:20
(Jesus speaking)
`Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears My voice and
opens the door,
I will come in to him and will dine with him, and he with Me.
John
14:20
(Jesus
speaking)
"In
that day you will know that I am in My Father, and you in Me, and I
in you.
1Co
3:16
Do you not know that you are a temple of God and that the Spirit of
God dwells in you?
Rom
8:9-11
However, you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the
Spirit of God dwells in you. But if anyone does not have the Spirit
of Christ, he does not belong to Him.
If
Christ is in you, though the body is dead because of sin, yet the
spirit is alive because of righteousness.
But
if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He
who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your
mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.
Luke
4:1
Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led
around by the Spirit in the wilderness
Or, we can say,
Christ is dwelling in the Father, we are dwelling in Christ, and
Christ is dwelling in us. The Holy Spirit dwells in Christ, Christ
dwells in us, we dwell in the Holy Spirit, and the Holy Spirit dwells
in us. Wow!
Eph
3:19
to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be
filled with all the fullness of God.
2Co
13:14
The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the
fellowship of the Holy Spirit, be with you all.
Selah,
I.H.G.
