IMMANUEL
*Inspired by Charles Spurgeon's "God With Us"
Dec. 24, 1854- Charles Spurgeon
"Do you know the full meaning of that name Immanuel, " God With Us"? No, he who knows it best knows little of it, Alas He who knows it not at all is Ignorant indeed, So Ignorant that his Ignorance is not Bliss, but will be his Damnation. Oh! May God teach you the meaning of that name, Immanuel."
It is the Great Mystery of Mysteries, the source of All Beings, of All Creation, who is this God that has Always been and Always will be? It is Immanuel "God With Us", Mystics and Sages have pondered for Centuries and have been left in Wonder upon the Awes of the Eternal Flame, Angels have spread there Wings Wide to Ascend in Ranks to see it, to become one with it, the Plumblines of Lesser Faculties cannot penetrate not even half the depths of Infinity, the Clipped Wings of Science cannot see the Sovereignty that is Blazing in the Spirit by the Caduceus, and the Blind Eye of Research and Conformity will never find it. " God With Us" The doors of Hell tremble, Evil is Dispersed and Satan is agitated by the Wisdom that has Befallen upon him. The Great Winged Deceiver of the Bottomless Pit recoils before it, let the Evil One come before you in Haste and Tremble at the Sight of Immanuel, and back he falls by the Powers that are from Above, Bewildered and Dumbfounded by the Reckoning of Universal Laws. "God With Us" It is the Power that is Annointed through the Sacred Fire, how could one speak of Wisdom, how can man Surrender the Falsehoods of Kneeling in prayer and Stand Upright and Capture The Light Of Manifestation, how could the Missionary walk through the Valleys of Hell, how could the Martyr stand at the Stake, how can the oppressed Conquer it's Master and become the Master itself, how can man survive if Immanuel was non existent upon the Path Of Righteousness," God With Us ".
It is those who Suffer who fill find peace, it is the Holy Balm that will pierce through the doors of Woe and Distress, Thus Immanuel, the Light that Shines from Within is the Remedy for this Misery, it is the Power and Strength which is given to the ones who are willing to see, it is the Vigor beyond the Exertions and Toils of the Fallen World, and so Ah Yess, we must find "God Within Us". It is the Eternal Poetry, the Great Everlasting Sonnet of the Cosmos, it is the Hymns of the Heavens, the Victorious Shout of the Annointed, the Psalm of the Glorified, the Chant Of Redemption, it is the Chorus that has Reverberated through All Of Time, the Omnipotent Oratorio of the Great Orchestra Of The Skys that has serenaded the Saints, Seers and Prophets for All Of Time, IMMANUEL "God With Us".
