You lost me here, what’s your point

to till the ground is a laboring/reasoning to bring forth, which affords us a mentality of a beast which is dust ... and it is this dust/mentality we are to shake from our feet/walk ....

in the wilderness on the sixth day the Israelites received a double portion ... the portion of the first born which relates to the two tables we eat from ... one being prepared by our soul and one already prepared by our spirit ... a perception by way of a mixture of two opposites

So because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I am about to spit you out of My mouth.

The spirit is fire...hot...

The spirit is fire...hot...

like the game kids play when hiding a thing ... hot when your near it, and cold when your not ...

when we mix truth/good and lie/evil relating to our perception, our perception is then corrupted ... our perception is what covers us and this covering our identity ...

Woe to the rebellious children, saith the LORD, that take counsel, but not of me; and that cover with a covering, but not of my spirit, that they may add sin to sin:

and a 1000 years or 1000 symbolic of completeness, Adam lived 930 years as in 70 years short of entering into the seventh day or Gods rest ....


the two seeds which speak to division can first be seen or begins with let there be light, which God called good and therefor darkness becoming evil by default ... Cain and Abel speak to this division in Adam, his two sons as in two perceptions of his soul ...

and yet darkness and light are the same to God or God calls light out of darkness

even the darkness is not dark to You, but the night shines like the day, for darkness is as light to You.

For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness,

And God saw that the light was good, and He separated the light from the darkness.

God called the light “day, and the darkness he called “night.” And there was evening (erev), and there was morning (boker)...the first day (yom).

the two's come in a myriad of forms both speaking to the division/gendering of spirit and soul

a few examples

head, tale ... good, evil ... day, night... blessing, cursing ... Abel, Cain... Jacob, Esau ... Isaac, Ishmael ect ect virgin. harlot .. ... Sarah, Hagar ...Zion, Sinai ...heavenly Jerusalem, earthly Jerusalem etc etc

twelve stones in the river and twelve stones in the land, two edges of one sword

theos esti phōs...

The word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

In his right hand he held seven stars, from his mouth came a sharp two-edged sword, and this face was like the sun shining in full strength

when a law is spoken the opposite to it is also and so one becomes two or what comes out is feminine in relation to what it came out of as being masculine , the law of our Father is singular (keep your eye single) but when it come out as in cast down into the earthly realm it becomes dual (good & evil) or the law of our mother, but in this the sword that would cleave a son in two (1 Kings 3:25/6) also reveals the true Jerusalem as the mother of us all ...

For the law will go forth from Zion, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.

Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, and you were not willing.

But the Jerusalem that is above is free, and she is our mother.

"Therefore come out from their midst and be separate, says the Lord, and touch nothing unclean, and I will receive you."

but about the fruit of the tree in the middle of the garden, God has said, ‘You must not eat of it or touch it, or you will die.’ ”
