How about you. Do you have anything you want to share about something that was revealed to you?
I have shared some of the revelations the Spirit passed on to me. But I'm more than happy to share some again. I'll get on to it tomorrow. It's past my bedtime.

Soon God will restore all things to Himself for the benefit of all things to the glory and pleasure of Him Who restores all things to Himself.

Since I saw this event, it has changed the way I see God, His creation and the ever after.

The one who has been forgiven much loves much.
Where sin abounds grace abounds all the more. The greatest sinner has the greatest opportunity to unleash the greatest display of mercy and grace of God from God.

This is Satan from amoung the angels and maybe Hitler from amoung humans. As God has made this available to all and for all time and eternity, it is just a matter of time before God's irresistible grace becomes impossible to resist. Yes, all in the lake of fire will be tempted to consider and will eventually embrace God's grace. All will repent and turn from their rebellion against God and will turn towards Him, calling on Him to forgive them, accept them and make them even a slave, the lowest of all things in His kingdom like the Prodigal son. But God Who is rich in favour will do something incredible. He will restore the prodigal to the greatest place created by God for any created being.

God gave me a revelation in which I saw God reach behind His thone and drag a throne to His left. God invited Satan to sit on that throne as an everlasting statement of God's love and greatness, His mercy and grace for everyone to observe.

Sorry, I don't believe that's from God. For example, in the Bible Satan is not going to be sitting on a throne at the left hand of God. Actually, Satan (aka the devil) has an entirely different fate. What you said seems to suggest that Satan is an authority figure or someone to sympathize with. The word satan itself means adversary and sometimes it's used in that sense, but other times it does refer to an actual person.

How do you receive your revelations?

That's OK. You asked for me to share what the Spirit of Christ revealed to me, so I did.
How do you receive your revelations?
Thanks for asking this question.

The revelations come in the form of pictures or parables. There is no formula as to when, where or how the Spirit of Truth delivers them.

We have been in a relationship for many years now, around 36 years, and I have come to recognise Him and when He is communicating with me. As Jesus promised when He was on earth in human form, My sheep hear My voice, they will not listen to a stranger, in fact they will run from them.

I appreciate the fact that I have the mind of Christ so I find myself thinking more and more like Him.

Sometimes He gives me a bonus insight into the future and this was one of them. I praise Him regularly for this amazing truth which has changed me, by renewing my thinking and many of my previous beliefs, especially in relation to humans and angels distant future.

I had been given insights into Satan's current role which caused me to have many chats with God. A number of times I was strongly moved to ask Father to have mercy on Satan and to extend His grace to him. I prayed for my flesh and blood enemies but not my not spiritual enemies.

This revelation was God's response to these requests. I have not asked Father for this ever since. I cannot wait for the actual time when this event becomes a reality.

You are absolutely correct. The bible doesn't say anything close to this that I'm aware of.

This revelation definitely didn't come to me via the bible nor has many other revelations, pictures, parables.

The Spirit Who lives in me takes from Christ Who is at Father right hand side and downloads them into me. I love Them for giving me these treasures, these gifts from heaven.

The bible as we know is extremely limited in relation to its volume of content and scope when it comes to the neverending story of the Creators, Who made us in Their likeness and image.

I appreciate the truths which lie within the bible but I really appreciate the truths that are being revealed beyond this book.

The mind of the Word of God, Christ, lives in me. He has moved in and made me His dwelling place. I in Christ and Christ in me.

Isn't this fantastic! Aren't They worthy to be thanked and praised and worshipped and adored!!

Yes, the Satan was appointed by his Creator to carry out a necessary role and function. Yes he is an adversary, an emeny of God, just like all humans were and are. Yet Father's Lamb was sent to die for me and every other human. In fact He died to reconciled every being in heaven and within this creation which includes all the angels to Himself.

Now that's great news, the Gospel.

Satan definitely has been given authority by his Creator. But to head up a rebellion against his sovereign, all powerful, all wise Creator. What chance has Satan ever had of overthrowing any of God's plans or of not carrying out His will for him. None! For this I sympathised with Satan and prayed God bring this to an end, to end his ongoing frustration and suffering he experience as he carries out this undesirable role.

I'm so glad Satan's Creator will have mercy on him. Oh, Glory to God in the highest for His loving kindness endures forever and without end.

Thanks for sharing. I am familiar with what you mean by the "download" but for me I find I have a certain amount of control over that. I can, if you will "tune in" to a "frequency" until I find the right one. I would compare it almost like dialing in on one of those old turn-knob radios.

It's a bit like muscle memory; when you do it a few times you can do it better and faster the next time. I am sure you understand what I am getting at even if the process may be a bit different for you.

Just that it's actually a bit taxing on my energy to sustain it for longer than 10-15 minutes. Doing this, a bit here and there, over time, I have been able do things like transcribe parts of the Bible that I didn't know or find things in the Bible I didn't know about. I've also been able to help other people and help myself.

I've learned new things about myself, about the world, and about God. I've also learned that in "tuning in" there are beings out there. Not all of them are intelligent, not all of them are good, not all of them are nad, not all of them are either angels, demons, or human. Some fall into different categories and some claim to be from other dimensions or other planets.

Yes, I like that analogy of the radio. I use it sometimes too.

I'm just about to do that very thing right now by going into the bush/woods to get tuned in, like fine tuned so I can listen intently without distractions.

I receive something, I'd say, 100% of the time I do this.

I'm looking forward to hearing more of what the Spirit downloads into you.

Whatever works for you my friend. I'm not going to pre-empt how or when the Spirit of God communicates with you.

I'm just glad that the historical God in flesh, is presently in heaven communicating with you now. That the Spirit of Christ is in you communicating with you live, in real time. It's awesome to receive these life giving words directly into our spirit.

Praise our Creators for designing and creating us to be so compatible with Them. Them in us gives me so much comfort, confidence and hope.

Because God is not a destroyer.

For the same purpose as God having written the names of The Elect of God in a book of eternal life before this world that was destined to fall did so.

God's will is everything. And everywhere.
