Shadows Of The Walls by PCHC(m): 1:42am On Jul 11
[Ezekiel 8:10 KJV] - So I went in and saw; and behold every form of creeping things, and abominable beasts, and all the idols of the house of Israel, pourtrayed upon the wall round about.

[Ezekiel 8:10 NIV] - So I went in and looked, and I saw portrayed all over the walls all kinds of crawling things and unclean animals and all the idols of Israel.

♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️


When Ezekiel went into the room, he saw all kinds of crawling/creeping animals, wild animals, and images that people (of Israel) admire so much that they take such images as idols. Not only would the idolatrous people of Israel idolize those images, even people who are artists would have admired the carvings on the walls, people who are zoologists/biologists would have appreciated the varieties of different species of living organisms captured on the walls, people who are archeologists and people who love Museums would appreciate such specimens. But as soon as the son of man, Ezekiel, saw those portraits, superscriptions and embeddings on the walls, he saw them as evil, abominations, detestable, unclean and hateful.

When you have seen God and you are united in His Holiness, you will also see those things on those walls as abominable, evil and unclean. as Ezekiel saw them to be. Behold, it is not just about seeing secret/hidden things, but also about seeing them the way the Holy Ones the heavens see and judge them to be.

Therefore in the bible verse above, Ezekiel achieved the “Two Perceptions:” [1.] He saw the hidden things, and [2.] He saw the nature and judgment of those hidden things

Now understand these:

☆1☆ It is abominable for the Walls of the Temple of God to have an graven image or engraving (carved) or portraits of any unclean animal or beast or demon or idol.

☆2☆ In same light, it is abominable for your body, which is the Temple of God to have “Tattoo” of graven image or engraving (carved) or portraits of any unclean animal or beast or demon or idol on your body or skin, just as on the Temple walls.

☆3☆ Beware of the mark of the Beast on your body, beware of the mark of any beast or animal on your body including the name of the beast, and flee idolatry.

☆4☆ In the Holy Temple of God, there is only one kind of Living Creatures and only one kind of Trees, that may be engraven, tattooed, or portrayed on the Walls and Doors of the Holy Temple of God, and that would not be abominable, evil, unclean or unholy.

The only Living Creatures that may be portrayed on the walls of the Holy Temple of God are “The Cherubim” and the only Trees or Plants ditto are “The Palm Tree.” For emphasis, I repeat only “Cherubim” and “Palm Tree” should be portrayed or engraved on the holy walls of the Temple of God. No other Angel, not even Michael, not Gabriel, not Raphael, not Uriel, not Sariel, not Raguel, not Ramiel (not Archangels), not Saints, not Mary, not Jesus Christ Himself, not Dove as Holy Spirit, not image of a dead man hanging on a cross etc., should be portrayed or engraved on Walls of Holy Temple.

Behold, in the top bible verse above, Ezekiel saw the portraits of those creatures on the walls as abominable: let us also see another occasion when the same Ezekiel saw the portraits of Cherubim and Palm Trees on the Walls and Doors of the Temple the Lord Jesus Christ would later build when He returns:

[b][‭Ezekiel 41:18-26 NIV‬] — were carved cherubim and palm trees. Palm trees alternated with cherubim. Each cherub had two faces: the face of a human being toward the palm tree on one side and the face of a lion toward the palm tree on the other. They were carved all around the whole temple. From the floor to the area above the entrance, cherubim and palm trees were carved on the wall of the main hall. The main hall had a rectangular doorframe, and the one at the front of the Most Holy Place was similar. There was a wooden altar three cubits high and two cubits square; its corners, its base and its sides were of wood. The man said to me, “This is the table that is before the Lord.” Both the main hall and the Most Holy Place had double doors. Each door had two leaves—two hinged leaves for each door. And on the doors of the main hall were carved cherubim and palm trees like those carved on the walls, and there was a wooden overhang on the front of the portico. On the sidewalls of the portico were narrow windows with palm trees carved on each side. The side rooms of the temple also had overhangs.[/b]

Now let's look at the Temple of Solomon, and see how the wisdom God gave him also incorporated Cherubim and Palm Trees in the design of that great Temple:

[1 Kings 6:29 AKJV] — And he carved all the walls of the house round about with carved figures of cherubim and palm trees and open flowers, within and without.

[Ezekiel 8:11 NKJV] - And there stood before them seventy men of the elders of the house of Israel, and in their midst stood Jaazaniah the son of Shaphan. Each man had a censer in his hand, and a thick cloud of incense went up.

[Ezekiel 8:11 NIV] - In front of them stood seventy elders of Israel, and Jaazaniah son of Shaphan was standing among them. Each had a censer in his hand, and a fragrant cloud of incense was rising.

♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️


If you have been in program called “Stations of the Cross” usually held in Roman Catholic Church, you will relate how various portraits arranged sequentially containing pictures of milestones in the events between the agony of the Lord Jesus Christ through His crucifixion on the cross, are hanged or fixed on the walls of the Church. Then the priest would be leading a procession of praying crowd from one portrait to the other sequentially according to the order of the Lord’s approach to His death. E.g. they would come to a station (portrait) on the wall call “Jesus fell the first time” before they arrive the station of “Jesus fell the second time” and “Jesus fell the third time.”

Whenever the priest gets to any station or portrait on the walls round the church, the priest would stir up the burning incense in the censer to release more cloud or smoke of the incense to the portrait, which’s station he and his crowd are currently serving. That's how those in the top bible verse above were doing “Stations of the gods” to the portraits or carved images of those idols, creeping Things and Beasts, on the walls. They were about 70 elderly men of Israel, led by Jaazaniah, who was a son of Shaphan. Shaphan was a man popular known as Shaphan the Scribe in the days of Josiah the king; and Shaphan the Scribe helped in the great Reformation of Josiah (2 Kings 22). Unfortunately, a son of Shaphan, was a leader of underworld cults or Church of Satan.

[Ezekiel 8:12 NKJV] - Then He said to me, “Son of man, do you see what the elders of the house of Israel do in the dark, each man in his [secret] room of carved images? For they say, ‘The Lord does not see us; the Lord has abandoned the land.’ ”

[Ezekiel 8:12 NIV] - He said to me, “Son of man, have you seen what the elders of Israel are doing in the darkness, each at the shrine of his own idol? They say, ‘The Lord does not see us; the Lord has forsaken the land.’ ”

♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️


Those who work in darkness say “the Lord does not see us:” — Learn this, it's natural for one who is in darkness or shadows to see the person who is in the brighter light, more than the one in the brighter light can see one who's in darker or hidden shadows. But do not make the mistake of applying this same principle to the Lord and to the Watchers or Saints in heaven who dwell in far greater lights, and yet see far better the things in darkness more than the things in darkness see them in the lights.

Those who work in darkness say “the Lord does not see us:” Those who engage in underworld cults and operations of “Secret Societies” continue to do their things in darkness or secrecy even when they say God is dead or the Lord has abandoned the land. Even if God keeps off, and does not interfere, those who belong to the underworld secret cults and societies would still be afraid of coming out to the light for men to see the things they do in hiding or darkness. So they are not just dodging from the Lord, but they are also dodging from openness and exposition before men, yet they claim to be the enlightened ones. As such were Adam and Eve when they just ate of the forbidden tree of knowledge of good and evil, and began hiding in fear.

Always ensure whatever fellowship or group you belong are in the light, not shrouded in secrecy of darkness: Let your fellowship be in the light, and stop meetings in dark.

[‭Ephesians 5:11-13 NIV‬] — Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them. It is shameful even to mention what the disobedient do in secret. But everything exposed by the light becomes visible—and everything that is illuminated becomes a light.

[‭1 John 1:5-7 NIV‬] - This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you: God is light; in him there is no darkness at all. If we claim to have fellowship with him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth. But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin.
