The temptation before Baptism

[Iamdayton]

July 21

Hi guys, I'm new in here and I've been looking across the website to post my dreams and need your help for the interpretation. Here it goes..

I remember seeing a guy who took over the swing(it's like a place where I stay) which tied between trees, and I pray to God pleading Him to go away so that I have place to stay at night.
Then my dream switched to walking with John the Baptist. I remember requesting John to baptize me in the Jordan River, He agreed and told me it's just a few miles and He leaded me.
When we arrived halfway in a country, which almost look like those 1st Century Jerusalem houses, Jesus appeared on left side of me, started to walk with me. As he gets closer to me, I could felt His strong present of Holy Mighty and Protection. Meanwhile I start a conversation with Him and feel sympathy and apologize for what people had done to Him, and He said it's okay.
After period of time, we arrived by the Jordan River. It was different back to A.D because it has metal fence panels between the staircase, which look like this:

In the meantime, there's so many people gathered together and waiting to get baptize too. As we were walking down the stairs which lead to the river, the whole scene and the river changed into wooden room, which almost look like this:

and the stairs we were stepping on become wooden floor. So I hold onto Jesus's Holy hand tightly while his Holy garment were rubbed against my arms skin. Afterward people in that room was gazed at us because they don't know Him and see Him (Jesus) as they were being blindfolded like this:

Somehow we just stopped at a certain place and Jesus warned me "Whatever happened don't release your grip on my hand during temptation", then He disappear in the air. Immediately the hand I was holding to became somebody's hand, which is John's hand.
John started to take me walk in circles like this:

and questioning me about Jesus.
• "Who is He?" He asked. "He is Jesus, the Son of God." I replied as I accidentally loosened my grip on His hand. "Don't loosen it!" He said.
Then the first tests has passed. As we still walking in circles, then the forearm of His hand broke and shattered like glasses into pieces to the floor with blood, remained his only hand I was gripped to. Then he questioned again.
• "What do you think when people look at my broken pieces of forearm on the floor?" He asked. "So they will believe in you Jesus." I replied.
After the second tests has passed. I don't remember much about the third tests but I remember I'd failed to give the right answer to Him, then Jesus appeared in front of me, with a scourged look and crowned with thorns which blood dripped from His head to his garment like this:

And He's walking after me in circles in clockwise. My heart completely shattered and I cried out to Him "Oh my Jesus I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Then he disappeared.
Overtime, a Demon look like this:

appeared in front of me, and started chasing after me in circles in clockwise. As I was running in circles terrifyingly to keep distance from It, I somehow failed and loosened my grip on His(Jesus) hand, and the Demon got me and bite my leg. I then woke up.

Adam and Eve endured 3 temptations in the garden, to see all 3 you got to study it closely. I wrote this a year ago perhaps:

Tempations in the Garden

Word) Temptation to Reject God's Word

“Has God indeed said, ‘You shall not eat of every tree of the garden’?”

Eve passes this test! She knows what God said and she repeats it with only a slight modification. Yet this is sufficient to cause the devil to try a different approach.

Later, when Eve takes the fruit to Adam, this is the test in the garden Adam fails, and the rebellion against God. He simply rejects God's word outright and eats the fruit.

Death) Temptation to Disbelieve in Death as a Consequence of violating God's Law

4 Then the serpent said to the woman, “You will not surely die.

Eve succumbs to this temptation, disbelieving in the consequence of death God had stated.

Life) Temptation to Disbelieve in Life as a Blessing from God and only From God

5 For God knows that in the day you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”

The devil is presenting a lust here, where by Eve will receive a perceived benefit. Yet the devil knows nothing beneficial to man, only that which might harm us.

Paul says:

Romans 8:2 - because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you free from the law of sin and death.

-----------------------------

Christ then overcomes the 3 Temptations

Life - First Victory of Christ

During that time the devil came and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, tell these stones to become loaves of bread.”

But Jesus told him, “No! The Scriptures say,

‘People do not live by bread alone,
but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.’”


Death - Second Victory of Christ

Then the devil took him to the holy city, Jerusalem, to the highest point of the Temple, and said, “If you are the Son of God, jump off! For the Scriptures say,

‘He will order his angels to protect you.
And they will hold you up with their hands
so you won’t even hurt your foot on a stone.’”

Jesus responded, “The Scriptures also say, ‘You must not test the Lord your God.’”

( Here satan proposes a temptation where death is rejected as a consequence of sinning. It would be a sin to jump.)


The Word - Third Victory of Christ

Next the devil took him to the peak of a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. “I will give it all to you,” he said, “if you will kneel down and worship me.”

“Get out of here, Satan,” Jesus told him. “For the Scriptures say,

‘You must worship the Lord your God
and serve only him.’”

Bible Scholars peg Jesus as quoting Deuteronomy 6:13 - You must fear [respect] the Lord your God and serve him.

The word "serve" implies the temptation was rebellion rather than lusts.

----------------------------------------------------
==============================
----------------------------------------------------

A Christian passes these 3 by:

The Word Victory: "faith in God's word, but specifically, faith that Jesus is Lord and He is our Lord"

The Life Victory: John 6:35 - I am the bread of life.

The Death Victory: We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life. - Romans 6:4

“Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God.” - John 3:3

----------------------------------------------------------

You forgot the third test, because you have not fully received and accepted knowledge of God in that area. Because you did not receive revelation, or perhaps touched upon realization only briefly, you forgot. This is how God's knowledge works. Either we take hold of it, or if we let it go, we forget. But there are 3 tests, and you can have God reveal in your heart which test you are missing... I believe it is the victory over death based upon the tests you passed, and what they represented.

I believe the 1st test was the Word, you believe Jesus is Lord and the Son of God.

I believe the 2nd test was the flesh of Christ, "I am the bread of life."

I believe the 3rd test was death.

You were going to the Jordan to be baptized, this was your dream. Then when you went to the Jordan, you were in a wooden room. This wooden room represented your heart. Inside you, in your heart, that was where you were at. Jesus was showing you your heart.

Inside your heart there are strongholds, ways of thinking and believing that is blinded. People, they put on blindfolds. This means that they are ignorant.

He also told them this parable: "Can the blind lead the blind? Will they not both fall into a pit? - Luke 6:39

And what is the blindness? You had already been given knowledge of it. It is water baptism and the teachings on it from scripture. After concluding it was baptism that was the problem, I looked at your profile info, and I see you are a Catholic.

Catholics, while they love Jesus and there are many good Catholic preachers who know more than me, Catholicism has prevalent in it, a weak teaching on water baptism in many segments of their large congregation.

You see, water baptism for a child, is not really the water baptism Christians are supposed to do. I am not saying it is bad, but really, after we are old enough to understand, and old enough to make Jesus our Lord, we are supposed to accept Christ into our hearts, and then be water baptized into the name of Jesus Christ.

When we go down into the water, we understand that God empowers that old life to sink into the mirky depths, and we understand that the new man God implanted into our heart upon professing Jesus as our Lord, that new man is our new life in Christ. This is called being born again. We get a new spirit inside of us, and we bury the old man into the waters!

Acts 2:38 -
Peter said to them, “Repent, and each of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

We get water baptized after we repent to God and accept Jesus as our Lord. It's good to set our children apart for the Lord and recognize this as a body, but when we are older, we are to be obedient to Christ and repent, be baptized into Christ, and then receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

Also, when you saw Jesus Christ dying after you failed the 3rd test, this too was the answer God was giving you... he showed you not Christ at the right hand of God, but Christ being led to his death.

In water baptism, we are crucified with Christ. You should read all of Romans 6 for understanding.

Romans 6:3 - Or do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus have been baptized into His death?

But you have to receive this death by faith, and faith comes by hearing the word of God and understanding it. We have to do it after we are able to understand it.

I'm so happy and understand much and see more clearer about how the Baptism works. I've been blinded so many years and have been told that I should be baptize in order to be saved. Glad the video explained everything about it. God bless you brother Razare and hope you have a great day! [emoji4]
