Awakening the Blind Church to Christ’s Last‑Day Vision

Recovering the eye salve that reveals God’s plan to multiply Himself

The greatest tragedy of the last days is not the darkness of the world, but the blindness of God’s own people to His astonishing purpose: the multiplication of Himself in His sons and daughters. “Each seed bears its own kind” comes to mind (Gen. 1:11-25). This is the divine intention woven through Scripture yet hidden from the natural eye. And in a mystery of sovereignty, God Himself has ordained this blindness until His children return to Him in repentance and spiritual sight.

Paul writes, “God has given them the spirit of stupor, eyes that they should not see and ears that they should not hear” (Romans 11:8). This condition is not merely ancient Israel’s; it is the condition of the church at the “time of the end.” We are living in the final church age—the Laodicean era, and the church has a spiritual sickness that Christ exposes with piercing clarity.

Christ says of His people, “You do not know that you are wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked” (Revelation 3:17). Yet His rebuke is not condemnation but invitation. He counsels us to receive from Him “gold tried in the fire,” the purified faith that reflects His nature; “white raiment,” the righteousness that clothes the saints; and “eye salve,” the anointing of truth that restores spiritual sight (Revelation 3:18).

Christ’s Rebuke, His Counsel, and the Throne‑room Promise to Overcomers

See what? See what He sees. See His vision for the earth. See how each of us dovetails into His plan, faithfully fulfilling our appointed part. The eye salve is truth—truth that removes the fog of false doctrine and reveals His prophetic ambition for His elect. Those who endure His rebuke and chastening are those who anoint their eyes with this truth (Revelation 3:19).

Therefore, Christ commands, “Be zealous therefore, and repent.” Those who obey receive a promise so staggering that it strains the imagination. In this age, it is not we knocking on His door—it is Christ knocking on ours: “Behold, I stand at the door and knock…” (Revelation 3:20). To those who open, He grants intimate fellowship and unimaginable authority.

To the overcomers He declares, “To him that overcomes will I grant to sit with Me in My throne, even as I also overcame and am set down with My Father in His throne” (Revelation 3:21). If you believe that this promise includes you, then you must prove it out–one way or another–by studying Revelation 3:14–22 with opened eyes and a yielded heart.

Christ concludes with the solemn refrain, “He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches” (Revelation 3:22). His vision—His plan—is written plainly in Scripture, yet it remains a closed book to many (Isaiah 29:10–12). We sense that He is speaking of wonders, but finite minds struggle to grasp infinite purpose.

Paul reminds us that “the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong” (Ecclesiastes 9:11), and “it is not of him that wills, nor of him that runs, but of God that shows mercy” (Romans 9:16). The winners are those to whom God grants favor—those He chooses to give ears that hear.

This is why Christ repeatedly said, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear” (Matthew 11:15). The Spirit is speaking to His body, but only the elect—those chosen and called—possess ears capable of receiving the message.

These elect are the ones through whom God will reproduce Himself. They are His first fruits (James 1:18; Revelation 14:4), the first in these end time days in whom God will fully manifest His nature. Their destiny is royal: to become kings in God’s Kingdom, which Christ will establish upon the earth (Revelation 5:10).

This is the high calling of God’s elect. This is the multiplication of God. This is the vision Christ is unveiling to those with opened eyes.

The Rock of Israel

And the I AM answered me in a Thought: “Tell them who I AM.”

Throughout Scripture, the title “Rock of Israel” stands as one of the most vivid revelations of God’s character. It is a name that gathers His strength, His faithfulness, and His immovable sovereignty. When the biblical writers speak of God as the Rock, they are not reaching for poetic flourish—they are naming the One who is unchanging, unbreakable, and utterly dependable.

In the Old Testament, the Rock is unmistakably Yahweh. Moses sings, “He is the Rock, His work is perfect” (Deut. 32:4). David declares, “The LORD [Yahweh] is my rock and my fortress” (Ps. 18:2). And in David’s final words, the title becomes explicit: “The God of Israel said, the Rock of Israel spake to me” (2 Sam. 23:3). The Rock is not an idea; He is a Personage—the covenant God who shelters, sustains, and judges His people.

Yet the New Testament unveils a deeper mystery. Paul writes that Israel “drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ” (1 Cor. 10:4). The apostle does not hesitate. The Rock who accompanied Israel through the wilderness, the Rock who poured out water in their thirst, the Rock who bore them up in their rebellion—that Rock is Christ. The eternal Yahweh of Israel is revealed in the face of Jesus Christ, the cornerstone rejected by men but chosen by God.

Thus the “Rock of Israel” is not merely a metaphor for stability. It is a divine name pointing to the One who stands at the center of redemptive history. He is the foundation of Israel, which includes the “lost sheep of the House of Israel, the lost ten tribes. He also is the refuge of the saints, the immovable ground upon which the sons and daughters of God are formed. In calling Him the Rock, Scripture invites us to rest our entire weight upon Him—to trust His sovereignty, His covenant love, and His unchanging purpose. The Rock of Israel is Yahweh. And Yahweh is revealed in Christ, the eternal foundation of all who are being brought into His likeness.

The Sovereignty of God — Chapter 3 of The Unveiling of the Sons of God

To grasp the vision of the immortal sons and daughters of God, we must confront the reality of God’s sovereignty. God is totally in control. He rules. He governs every detail of our lives and every event unfolding on earth. He is the Supreme Authority, acting according to His will without seeking our permission.

God oversees all that occurs within human governments. As these words are written and read, He is ruling. Nothing happens that He has not foreseen, ordained, or allowed. “The powers that be are ordained by God.” Their rise, influence, and wealth unfold under His sovereign hand. Every moment in history—past or present—flows from His purpose.

The old hymn declares, “Thou art the Potter, I am the clay…Have Thine own way.” Yet the weight of that truth escapes our finite minds. The Creator sits at His wheel, shaping human vessels from the clay He formed. Some He fashions for common use, others He refines for noble service. His workings often remain hidden, for His ways exceed human understanding. Some vessels are shaped for beauty and honor, others for ordinary tasks. And some, never brought to the kiln, are pressed back into the original lump, their brief form absorbed into His greater design.

But many resist this truth. They do not like the life they have been given—the “cards” God has dealt. When they learn that He has mercy on whom He wills, they protest: “Then why does God still blame us? For who resists His will?” Paul answers, “But who are you, O man, to talk back to God? Shall what is formed say to Him who formed it, ‘Why did you make me like this?’ Does not the potter have the right to make out of the same lump some pottery for noble purposes and some for common use?” (Rom. 9:18–21).

He is sovereign. He does what He desires with His creation. Yet humans imagine themselves masters of their own destiny. Even those who stride insignificantly across the world stage think themselves formidable.

Consider Nebuchadnezzar, king of the Neo-Babylonian Empire (605–562 B.C.). His encounters with Yahweh, recorded by Daniel, taught him the hard truth of divine sovereignty. Nebuchadnezzar ruled a vast and wealthy empire, and Babylon itself was a wonder of the ancient world. But he failed to acknowledge the Source of his greatness. He boasted, “Is not this great Babylon that I have built…by the might of my power and for the honor of my majesty?” This, despite being warned in a dream that he would be struck with madness for seven years, “that the living may know that the Most High rules in the kingdom of men, and gives it to whomsoever He will” (Dan. 4:17, 30).

The dream came to pass. For seven years he lived like a beast. But when his sanity returned, his pride was gone. He confessed, “I blessed the Most High…whose dominion is an everlasting dominion…all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing…none can stay His hand, or say unto Him, ‘What are You doing?’” (Dan. 4:34–37). The most powerful man on earth learned that God rules—and that all earth-dwellers must reckon with His sovereignty. Nebuchadnezzar discovered it the hard way. Kenneth Wayne Hancock

The Strong Tower of God’s Hebrew Name

There are seasons when the battlefield of the mind feels relentless. Thoughts rise like storm winds, swirling through our grey matter with a force that seems beyond our control. Scripture is clear that such mental assaults are not imagined; they are part of the enemy’s strategy. “The devil…walks about as a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour” (1 Pet. 5:8). Paul warns believers that Satan launches “fiery darts” toward the mind (Eph. 6:16). These darts often take the form of recurring, self-accusing thoughts — memories of past failures, thinking about material things, shame from our former life, whispers of condemnation that loop again and again.

And this happens not only to the unsaved. Even Christians, redeemed and indwelt by the Spirit, experience days when the old mental tapes play loudly. Some days are quiet, peaceful, and clear. Other days feel like ambushes — the negative thoughts demand to be heard, and Christ seems absent from the loop. We do not always know which kind of day awaits us.

But God has not left His people defenseless. He has provided a place of refuge — a spiritual fortress into which the righteous may run. “The name of Yahweh is a strong tower; the righteous run into it and is safe” (Proverbs 18:10).

The Name as a Refuge

Scripture does not say merely that God is a strong tower, though that is true. It says His name is the tower. Yahweh revealed His name to His people as a memorial — something to remember Him by, something to cling to, something to run toward. His name is not a mere label; it is a revelation of His nature. Yahweh means “the self-existing One.” The One who depends on nothing, who changes not, who is eternally present.

And when Yah-come-in-human-form walked among us, He bore a name that carried Yahweh’s nature into our world: Yahshua“Yahweh is salvation.” The angel declared, “You shall call His name Yahshua, for He will save His people from their sins” (Matt. 1:21).

His very name is a proclamation of deliverance. His name is the gospel in a single word.

Meditating on His Name Breaks the Loop

When negative thoughts rise like a flood, when the old life tries to speak again, when the self-criticizing loop begins its familiar cycle, the believer has a God-given escape route: run into the strong tower of His name.

To meditate on His name is to remember what His saving work accomplished. His name reminds us that:

  • We were purged from our old sins (2 Pet. 1:9).
  • We died with Christ, were buried with Him, and through faith in His resurrection, we were raised with Him (Rom. 6:1–12; Col. 2:11–13).
  • Our old life — the source of those condemning thoughts — is gone.
  • “He that is dead is freed from sin” (Rom. 6:7).

Freed not only from sin’s penalty, but from sin’s mental tyranny — the self-incriminating loop that tries to drag us back into darkness.

When we think upon Savior’s name, we are not performing a mental trick. We are entering a spiritual reality. We are stepping into the tower God Himself built for our protection. His name is the place where the accusing voices cannot follow, where the past cannot condemn, where the enemy’s darts cannot penetrate.

Our birthright in becoming the offspring of God hinges upon us receiving Christ, the Light. That takes place when we believe in His name. “But to all who did receive Him, who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God” (John 1:12). And how do we “believe in His name”? By believing in the meaning of His name. This shows Him that we have received Him. His name Yahshua means Yah is the Savior. [See Acts 3:16. The power is derived by having “faith in His name,” or believing in the meaning of His name] This kind of belief in His name is running into the tower.

Into the Tower

Running into the tower is not complicated. It is simply this:

Turn your mind toward His name. Speak His name. Meditate on the meaning of His name. Let His name interrupt the loop.

The moment we do, the spiritual architecture of Proverbs 18:10 becomes real. The righteous — not the perfect, not the strong, not the emotionally stable — the righteous run into His name and are lifted “securely on high,” out of reach of the swirling thoughts below.

His name is not only salvation from sin; it is salvation from the mental residue of sin.  His name is not only redemption; it is refuge. His name is not only a theological truth; it is a spiritual tower. And the believer who learns to run into that tower will find safety, stability, and peace — even on the days when the mind feels like a battlefield.    [If this has helped you, please subscribe, share, like and comment.

The Eternal Purpose: A Summary of The Unveiling, Chapter Two

The chapter opens by declaring that the thoughts and intents of the Father’s heart are eternal—without beginning, without end, and without alteration. God’s purpose has never wavered across the ages; it is everlasting, unchanging, and certain to reach its fulfillment both in heaven and on earth. His purpose is the very definition of “eternal,” and nothing in creation can hinder its consummation. As the text states, “His purpose will always go on; it will never stop…nothing can prevent His eternal purpose from finding full fruition.”

This eternal purpose is rooted in God Himself, for God is not merely the One who has a Word—He is the Word. Drawing from John 1:1, the chapter emphasizes that the Logos is both the thought and the utterance of God. The Logos is “a thought or concept” and “the expression or utterance of that thought.” Thus, before creation existed, God’s own inner intention—His conceptual purpose—stood as the primal reality. When God spoke, His thought became utterance, and that utterance unfolded into living reality throughout the universe. Creation itself is the manifestation of divine intention.

God’s thoughts are His counsel, His purpose, and His plan. Scripture affirms that “the counsel of Yahweh standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations” (Ps. 33:11). The chapter notes that both “purpose” and “thoughts” translate the Hebrew machashabah, meaning that God’s thoughts are His purpose. They express His intention toward His creation, especially toward His chosen people. David recognized this intimate divine attention: “Many, O Yahweh my God, are thy wonderful works…and thy thoughts which are to us‑ward” (Ps. 40:5). God’s purpose is not abstract—it is personal, directed toward His offspring.

This purpose became incarnate in the person of Yahshua, the Word made flesh. John 1:14 is central: “The Word…became flesh and dwelt among us, full of grace and truth.” The chapter stresses that the Word-made-flesh is the embodiment of God’s eternal purpose, the living manifestation of divine thought. To understand God’s purpose is to understand the grace and truth Yahshua carried. To think God’s thoughts and align with His intention is to please the Father.

Yet when the Purpose Incarnate walked among His own creation, “the world knew him not” and “his own received him not” (John 1:9–11). Still, those who did receive Him were given power to become the sons of God. Receiving Him means receiving His thoughts, His intention, His purpose. Believing on His name means believing in what His name signifies—His identity as the embodiment of God’s eternal plan.

God’s Purpose: Sharing Himself with His Offspring

The chapter then turns to the experiential dimension of divine purpose. God calls certain vessels—His sons and daughters-to-be—by awakening desire within them. He stirs hunger for truth, reveals Himself in glimpses, and guides them through both suffering and blessing. Over time, they perceive that “all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to His purpose” (Rom. 8:28). Their lives begin to change; selfishness diminishes, peace increases, and they recognize that God is shaping them for something beyond themselves.

These chosen ones are descendants of Adam, created in God’s image. While other humans existed before Adam (as implied by Cain’s marriage), Adam’s lineage carries a special destiny. God foreknew certain individuals among Adam’s descendants and predestined them to be conformed to the image of His Son. Romans 8:29 is foundational: “For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son.” Before their earthly birth, God ordained their destiny—to become siblings of Yahshua, bearing His likeness.

Those whom God predestined, He also called, justified, and glorified. The chapter emphasizes that in God’s mind, this process is already complete: “It is already done and over with in God’s mind before it ever happens here on earth.” Romans 8:30 is quoted to show the seamless chain of divine action. God’s purpose is not reactive; it is predetermined, sovereign, and irresistible.

This Is God’s Doing, Not Ours

The chapter insists that humans contribute nothing to their calling. God saves and calls “not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace” (2 Tim. 1:9). No amount of religious effort can make one a son or daughter of God. The calling is rooted in God’s eternal purpose, given “before the world began.” This means the elect existed spiritually with God before creation, receiving their destiny from Him in eternity.

The Inheritance of the Sons and Daughters

The elect have obtained an inheritance—nothing less than the right to inherit all things and reign with the King of the Universe. Their destiny was prearranged before the world existed. God “works all things after the counsel of His own will,” shaping history toward the consummation of His plan in Christ (Eph. 1:9–12). The chapter highlights the “staggering thing” Paul describes: that those destined in Christ have been promised a share in everything that will one day belong to Him.

Summary of Key Doctrinal Themes

The chapter concludes by summarizing the major theological concepts that shape God’s purpose for His sons and daughters:

  • Purpose: God’s plan is deliberate, eternal, and centered on reproducing Himself in His offspring. Nothing is accidental.
  • Predestination: God assigned a royal destiny to certain individuals before their earthly birth.
  • Foreknowledge: God knew His elect before they entered the world.
  • Election: God chooses specific humans to fulfill His will.
  • Grace: God favors His elect, predisposes them to respond to Him, and grants them deep knowledge of His purpose.
  • Kings and Priests: The elect will receive immortality, perform greater works, and serve as God’s ruling family—His inner circle—mediating divine blessing to creation.
  • Sovereignty: God accomplishes His purpose according to His own will, unhindered by human resistance.

Overall Theological Arc

The chapter presents a sweeping vision of divine intentionality. God’s eternal purpose is not merely a plan but His own inner thought expressed through the Logos. Creation, redemption, and glorification are all movements of this single divine intention. The elect are not accidental participants but chosen vessels, foreknown and predestined to bear the image of Yahshua. Their calling is rooted in eternity, their transformation is guided by God’s sovereign hand, and their destiny is to inherit all things as sons and daughters of the Most High.

In essence, the chapter unveils the Father’s heart as a fountain of eternal purpose—unchanging, unstoppable, and lovingly directed toward His offspring. The elect are the living fulfillment of God’s ancient intention, chosen to share His nature, His glory, and His kingdom.

The Manifestation of the Sons of God–What the World Needs Now

This world has one major need right now at the beginning of the 21st Century.  The world doesn’t need another politician telling the people what they want to hear.  The world doesn’t need a steady robust economy to help it through the hard times that have been prophesied upon it.  No.  The world needs the sons of God to arrive on the scene.  They must come forth for these last days.

The whole creation, the apostle Paul wrote, (whether it knows it or not), is anxiously awaiting the sons of God to come upon the world stage.  For the sons of God will have something that all mortals walking the face of the earth must have.  They will have the key that will set the whole creation free from the chains of a certain physical death.  These children of the Most High are God’s elect, His sons made in His image, and they are what this world needs.  They are the ones who will have cut through all of the deception and vice in this world system.  They alone will see the Spirit and walk in the Spirit and be filled with the Spirit of the living Yahweh.  They will build the old waste places and build the spiritual walls to the heavenly city.

Why the World Needs the Sons of God

The creation has purposely been subjected to mortality by its Creator God. The impending gloom of a certain death is no accident or aberration of God’s  original  plan.  It  has  been  His  will  all  along  for  death  to  come to all living.  And then, a few mortals will be brought by Him to an awareness of the abiding power of His spiritual presence and will become His actual spiritual children. He will change them and will engulf them with immortality one day soon.   And it is through them that the whole creation will finally come to know this glorious liberty from a certain physical death. The creation waits in eager expectation for the sons of God to be revealed.  For the creation was subjected to frustration, not by its own choice, but by the will of the one who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay and brought into the glorious freedom of the children of God. Romans 8:19-21, NIV. 

     Every living thing on this planet will die; the whole creation will decay and go back to dust.  And we, this earthly creation, are “in bondage of corruption,” as it says in the King James Version.

The word “corruption” is translated from the Greek word phthora, #5356 in Strong’s.  It means “decay.”  Its root comes from #5351 phthio, to waste, shrivel, or wither.  We, the creation, are bound to become decaying matter someday.  And all of us, be we religious or not, are groaning under the impending physical doom that awaits us.

All of us have a built in desire to live forever.  Every ancient culture, without exception, was concerned with this impending gloom of an early exit from life.  All the ancient religions were concerned about how to secure immortality  for  the  mortal.   And  so  it  is  with religions today.  Man keeps on waiting, waiting, waiting for something real that will happen in order to deliver them from a certain death.

The creation is like the wife of the Creator, who is in the  deep  pains  of childbirth.  She is struggling to deliver her  children,  the  sons  of God.  For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.  And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body. Romans 8: 22-23, KJV.

The whole creation is anxiously awaiting the arrival of the sons of God because they are the first ones who will be released from mortality’s chains.  They will be the first ones who will not have to taste death.  And then after they are made known, the creation can look forward to its redemption.  That is how important the sons of God are.  When they are adopted or placed as sons, then a new era begins—an era where immortals will stride the earth, showing forth God’s way.

We Who Have Some Truth Also Desperately Need the Sons of God

Just look around us.  What do we see in every corner?  We see lurid trash in political high places, filthy-minded  movies and TV.  There is no shame to the world system.  And it is not getting any better.  So we try to lock in on the word of God.  We endeavor to glimpse a truth here, a truth there.  Some of us are trying to lead a holy life, but we “see through a glass darkly.”  We know, or should know that we are not walking in all truth.  For if we were, we would be bearing the same spiritual fruit as the prophets and apostles of God.  And we can’t seem to get in agreement and one accord with other sincere followers of Christ.

As  a  large  body  of  people,  we  can’t  see  eye  to   eye enough to get together.  Divisions abound.  We, if we are blessed, have a place to meet with a few other people who share some of our own beliefs, but something is dras-tically missing.  The unity of the Spirit is only a dream, for one group does not see eye to eye with another.  We are to be in one mind and one accord, and yet, who is to say just what that one mind is?  Who has the authority to say for sure anything?  Who has a sure word? There are several thousand “Christian” denominations, and they are growing exponentially daily.  There is probably a different concept of God and His plan for every one of His professing followers.

And it appears that the enemy is gaining ground, and we, the body of Christ, because of our disagreements and lack of unity, are seemingly losing ground as far as any “great move of truth” is concerned.

So what is the answer to this dilemma?  It is as if Yahweh Himself is needed to come down and just flat appear to His select few, whoever they are!  That would clear up the dim vision of those He has chosen.  They would definitely “get on the same page” after that shared glorious experience.  In the light of His own countenance and glow filling the room each would be in, He would straighten out off-concepts, purge out old leaven, old hypocrisies, and false concepts of Himself.  There would be no self-delusion if the King Himself came down to a handful!

Then a fire would well up from out of their bones!  Then they would cry to His people in His stead.  They would be His voice with his word welling up and out as springs gush out making rivers where dry land once was.

That is what we all need.  We need a sure word.  We need the Captain of our faith Himself to get a cadre of His brothers to catch on fire and, in turn, ignite the world.  We need a group of people baptized with the Spirit and with fire.   We need them!   We groan within ourselves, longing for someone to stand in the gap between God and the world.

That is the only thing that will ever turn this world upside down—if the people of the world were ready and knew they had a need for God in human form, had a need for the sons of the living God.

This whole creation is crying and groaning looking for someone sincere and true to believe in.  The heroes are gone; the people run to their idols of music and movies.  Those are their gods—gods who cannot see or hear them and their longings and needs, for their gods can see no one but themselves.  The whole creation does not know it, but they are groaning and longing for the manifestation of the sons of God.  And these sons will walk with the Lamb wherever He goes, for they shall be like Him.  These are they who will do the greater works that the Master spoke of.

It All Hinges on the Sons, But Do They Know Who They Are?

Yes, the manifestation of the sons of God is of extreme importance in God’s plan, but do they know who they are?  Do they realize their calling that He has placed on them?   Do  they  know  that  He  knew  them  long  before their earthly sojourn began?  Do they at present realize that  He  has  already  given  them  a glorious destiny—a destiny that has them justified from sin, set apart for this special work, and also glorified from heaven?  Does God’s elect, His chosen ones, know these things?

Have they called on His name and restored their heart back to Him?  But if they haven’t believed on Him, then how are they to call on Him?  And how can they believe on this God if they have never heard Him, never heard His Spirit, never heard Him who is the Word?  They are going to have to hear Him being spoken out of the mouth of another son in order to believe on Him.  And how shall these prospective sons hear unless there be a preacher?  And who is really going to be effective as a preacher?  The world is full of preachers.  Anyone who thinks they have heard from God calls himself a preacher.  The future sons will be reached by those who proclaim the truth.  And these proclaimers will be sent.  For whosoever shall call upon the name of Yahweh shall be saved.  How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher?  And how shall they preach, except they be sent?

A Book of Remembrance—For Those Who Think Upon His Name

God’s Last‑Day “Special Treasure”

He has a special treasure hidden in the earth. They are a chosen people whom He watches with keen attention as they walk through this world. He takes special note of them.

O, that God would remember us! There is a way for these special ones to be in God’s memory. Yahweh notices these characteristics about them:

(1) They fear Him. They stand in awe of Him. They know who He truly is, what He has done, and they hold a reverential awe toward His majesty.

(2) They speak often one to another. They find each other. And when they do, they “click.” God directs their steps until their paths meet.

(3) God listens to their conversations. He hearkens to their speech as they encourage one another.

(4) And then He remembers them. When they fear Him, He not only takes notice—He commands His angels to write “a book of remembrance…for them that feared Yahweh, and that thought upon His name” (Malachi 3:16–17). He remembers the humble as they remember Him. For His name is a memorial, that we would not forget Him and what He has done for us.

What were they speaking about? We know that whatever we think about, that is what we speak about. These chosen ones were speaking to each other about God’s Name—His Hebrew Name.

This moves God. How can we—little old us—ever touch God’s heart so that He would take notice of us? First, we fear Him; that is wisdom. Wisdom is reverential awe. And then we think on His Name. We ponder His Name, peruse it, explore it, understand the message contained in His Name, and then believe that message.

And this is the message contained in the Son’s Name Yahshua: Yahweh is the Savior (Isaiah 43:11).

He goes on to say that Yahweh will remember His elect “in that day when I make up my jewels” (“special treasure” in Hebrew). And these special ones He will spare.

Spare them from what? Spare them from the tribulation coming upon the earth. He will take care of His own—but not through a rapture. The humble who are in awe of Yahshua’s Name will make it through to the other side of earth’s destruction.

“For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith Yahweh… But unto you that fear my Name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in His wings…” (Mal. 4:1–2).

His “special treasure” is His elect—those who fear Him and think upon His Name. Kenneth Wayne Hancock

Believing on the Name Brings Answered Prayer and the Abiding

The Way to Answered Prayer and the Indwelling Presence of Yahweh

There are commandments in Scripture that stand like doors. They do not merely instruct; they open into realms of divine experience. One such commandment appears in the writings of the apostle John: “This is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Yahshua the Messiah, and love one another” (1 John 3:23). This is not a suggestion, nor a theological footnote. It is the central requirement for those who desire answered prayer and the abiding presence of God.

John declares that “whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments” (1 John 3:22). And the first of these commandments is to believe on His Name. The Name Yahshua is not a mere label; it is a revelation. It means “Yahweh is the Savior.” To believe on His Name is to believe the message contained within it—that the invisible Yahweh has come in human form to save, that the Father was in the Son reconciling the world unto Himself, and that salvation is the work of Yahweh alone.

Yahweh confirms in many places that He is the Saviour. “I, even I, am the LORD (Yahweh), and beside Me there is no Savior” (Isaiah 43:11). [Compare Isa. 45:15, 21; 49:26; 60:16; Hosea 13:4]

This belief is not intellectual assent. It is the doorway into answered prayer, the gateway into divine indwelling, and the foundation of the abiding life. All of this hinges on faith: believing having not seen as yet.

The Name Yahshua: The Revelation We Are Commanded to Believe

The commandment to “believe on the name of His Son Yahshua” is rooted in the meaning of the Name itself. Yahshua is the Hebrew form of Joshua, meaning “Yahweh is salvation.” The Name is a declaration of identity. It proclaims that the One walking among men in flesh is none other than Yahweh Himself, the eternal Spirit clothed in humanity.

This is why John writes with such gravity: “He that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God” (John 3:18). Condemnation does not come from failing to pronounce the Name correctly, but from rejecting the truth embedded within it. To deny that Yahweh is the Savior is to deny the Father who dwelt in the Son.

Thus, believing on His Name is the first act of obedience. It is the acceptance of heaven’s witness concerning Yahshua. It is the foundation upon which all spiritual experience rests.

Believing on His Name and Answered Prayer

John ties answered prayer directly to obedience: “Whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments” (1 John 3:22). And the first of these commandments is to believe on His Name.

Why is this the condition for answered prayer? Because to believe on His Name is to believe:

  • that Yahweh is the Savior
  • that Yahweh dwells in the Son
  • that Yahweh now dwells in us by the Spirit
  • that prayer is the communion of Yahweh-within speaking to Yahweh-above

Prayer is not a human reaching upward; it is Yahweh-in-us reaching toward Yahweh-in-heaven. This is why Yahshua said:

“If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.” (John 14:14) To ask “in His Name” is not to attach a formula to the end of a prayer. It is to pray according to the truth of His identity—Yahweh revealed in the Son, now abiding in the believer. When we pray from this place of union, our petitions align with His will, and He delights to answer. Thus, believing on His Name is the doorway into effective prayer.

Believing on His Name and the Abiding Presence

John continues: “He that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him” (1 John 3:24). The commandment is to believe on His Name. Therefore: He that believes on His Name dwells in Yahweh, and Yahweh dwells in him.

This is the abiding life Yahshua described in John 15:

  • “Abide in me, and I in you.”
  • “He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit.”
  • “Without me ye can do nothing.”

Abiding is not mystical passivity. It is the result of believing the heavenly testimony concerning Yahshua. When we believe that Yahweh is the Savior, that Yahweh was in the Son, and that Yahweh now dwells in us by the Spirit, we enter into the abiding union that produces fruit. This is the earthly witness of the heavenly truth. This is the Spirit, the water, and the blood agreeing in one. This is the life of Yahweh flowing through the believer.

The Name as the Convergence Point of Heaven’s Witness and Earth’s Witness

In the previous chapter, we saw that 1 John 5:7–8 presents two witnesses:

  • Heaven’s witness: the Father, the Word, and the Spirit
  • Earth’s witness: the Spirit, the water, and the blood

These two testimonies converge in the believer through the Name Yahshua.

  • Heaven declares who Yahshua is.
  • Earth reveals what Yahshua does in us.
  • The Name is the bridge between the two.

To believe on His Name is to accept heaven’s witness. To receive the Spirit is to receive earth’s witness. To abide is to experience the agreement of water and blood. To bear fruit is to manifest the life of Yahweh. Thus, the Name Yahshua is not merely a theological concept. It is the meeting place of revelation and experience, of identity and indwelling, of heaven’s testimony and earth’s testimony.

The Unified Thesis: The Name Unlocks Prayer and Presence

The commandment is simple: believe on His Name. The promise is profound:

  • Answered prayer — “Whatsoever we ask, we receive of Him.”
  • Abiding presence — “He dwelleth in him, and he in Him.”
  • Fruit-bearing life — “The same bringeth forth much fruit.”

The Name Yahshua holds precious blessings and powers for the followers of Christ. It is the revelation of Yahweh as Savior. It is the key to prayer. It is the doorway to abiding. It is the foundation of fruitfulness. It is the center of the believer’s life. To believe on His Name is to enter into the fullness of what Yahweh has given in His Son. kwh

The Two Witnesses of Yahshua

Heaven’s Testimony and Earth’s Testimony in the Believer

There are passages of Scripture that do not merely inform; they unveil. They open like a door into the architecture of divine revelation. I John 5:7–8 is such a passage. In two brief verses, the apostle John presents a pattern of testimony—one in heaven and one on earth—each bearing witness to the identity and work of Yahshua the Messiah. These two testimonies are not parallel lines running independently of one another. They are two halves of a single revelation, converging in the life of every true believer.

The text reads:

“For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one.” (1 John 5:7–8)

John is not offering a doctrinal aside. He is unveiling the structure of how God reveals Himself and how that revelation enters, transforms, and bears fruit within the believer. When this heavenly and earthly testimony is placed beside the teachings of Yahshua in the Gospel of John—His Name, His Spirit, and the abiding life—the pattern becomes unmistakable. The two witnesses form one unified testimony of Yahweh’s salvation.

Heaven’s Witness: The Revelation of Who Yahshua Is

John begins with the heavenly witness: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost. These three bear record in heaven, and “these three are one.” Heaven’s testimony concerns identity. It reveals who Yahshua truly is.

The Father is the invisible, eternal Spirit—the One whom no man hath seen at any time. The Word is Yahweh expressed, Yahweh made visible, Yahweh speaking Himself into flesh. The Holy Ghost is the Spirit of truth proceeding from the Father, the same Spirit who overshadowed Mary, the same Spirit who descended upon Yahshua at the Jordan, the same Spirit who raised Him from the dead.

These three are one. This is heaven’s declaration: Yahshua is Yahweh revealed.

This is why His Name is not incidental. The Name Yahshua means “Yahweh is the Savior.” To believe in His Name is to believe the heavenly witness—that the Father was in the Son, reconciling the world unto Himself. Condemnation, John says, comes upon those who “believe not in the name of the only begotten Son of God” (John 3:18). The Name itself carries the message of who He is. Heaven testifies that Yahweh has come in the flesh, and the Name Yahshua is the banner of that revelation.

Earth’s Witness: The Revelation of What Yahshua Does in Us

John then turns to the earthly witness: the Spirit, the water, and the blood. These three “agree in one.” Earth’s testimony concerns experience. It reveals what Yahshua accomplishes within the believer.

The first earthly witness is the Spirit. This is the same Spirit the Father sends in the Son’s Name (John 14:26). The Spirit enters those who believe the heavenly testimony. He is the inward confirmation that Yahshua is Yahweh. He is the Comforter, the Teacher, the One who brings all things to remembrance. He is the abiding presence of God within the believer.

The second earthly witness is the water. Yahshua said, “Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you” (John 15:3). The water represents the cleansing, sanctifying, pruning work of the Word. It is the washing that prepares the branch to bear fruit. It is the continual purification that accompanies abiding.

The third earthly witness is the blood. The blood is the sacrificial life of Yahshua, the life that flows into the believer. “Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you” (John 6:53). The blood is union. It is participation in His life, His death, and His resurrection. It is the life of the Vine flowing into the branch.

Together, the Spirit, the water, and the blood testify that Yahweh now dwells in His people. Earth’s witness is the manifestation of heaven’s truth within human vessels.

The Convergence of the Two Witnesses in the Believer

Heaven declares who Yahshua is. Earth declares what Yahshua does. Heaven’s witness—Father, Word, Spirit—reveals the identity of the Savior. Earth’s witness—Spirit, water, blood—reveals the indwelling of that Savior.

The believer stands at the intersection of these two testimonies. To believe the Name Yahshua is to receive the heavenly witness. To receive the Spirit is to receive the earthly witness. To abide in Him is to experience the agreement of water and blood. To bear fruit is to manifest the life of Yahweh within.

This is why Yahshua said: “He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit.” (John 15:5) Fruit is not human achievement. It is the earthly witness of the heavenly truth. It is the visible evidence that the Spirit, the water, and the blood are at work within the believer. It is the manifestation of Yahweh’s life in a human soul.

The Unified Testimony: Yahweh Revealed and Yahweh Indwelling

When the heavenly witness is believed, the earthly witness begins its work. The Name reveals Yahweh as Savior. The Spirit enters to confirm that Name. The water cleanses the branch. The blood supplies the life. The abiding produces fruit.

This is the agreement of the two witnesses. This is the testimony God has placed in the believer. This is the life of Yahshua made manifest in His people.

Heaven testifies to His identity. Earth testifies to His indwelling. Together they declare one truth:Yahweh has come, Yahweh abides, and Yahweh bears fruit in those who believe His Name.

Abide in Me: The Spirit Sent in the Name “Yahshua”

The Name, the Spirit, and the Fruit: Three Threads Woven Into One Revelation

There are seasons when the Spirit lays scattered truths before us, not as finished doctrines but as threads waiting to be woven. These notes, carried in my journal since 2003, have ripened into a single vision. Three truths appear again and again: the Name Yahshua, the abiding of His Spirit, and the bearing of spiritual fruit. At first, they seem like separate teachings, but they are in fact one revelation unfolding in three movements.

Believing the message contained in the Name Yahshua brings the Spirit into us.

The Spirit’s indwelling enables us to abide in the Spirit.

The abiding produces spiritual fruit. Or more tightly: The Name reveals the Savior; the Spirit unites us to Him, and the abiding manifests His life in us.

I. The Name Yahshua — The Revelation of Who Saves

Scripture declares that a man is condemned “because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God” (John 3:18). Condemnation is not merely unbelief in a person, but unbelief in the message contained in the Name. The Hebrew name Yahshua means “Yahweh is the Savior.”

To believe in His Name is to believe that:

  • Yahweh Himself has come in human form,
  • Yahweh was in Christ reconciling the world unto Himself,
  • Yahweh took on flesh to offer that flesh as the sacrifice for sin.

Rejecting this is rejecting Yahweh-in-the-Son. Accepting it is receiving the revelation of who God truly is.

II. The Spirit Sent in His Name — The Indwelling Witness

The Master promised, “But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things” (John 14:26). The Spirit comes in the Name because the Spirit confirms the truth of the Name.

Believing the message inside Yahshua’s Name opens the door for the Spirit to enter. The Spirit is the inward witness that the Father was in the Son, and that the Son is in us. The Spirit brings all things to remembrance because He is the same Spirit that dwelt in Yahshua from the beginning.

This is why John writes, “He that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.” The Spirit enables the doing, and the doing reveals the abiding.

III. Abiding in Him — The Union That Bears Fruit

The Master’s words are clear: “He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing” (John 15:5).

Abiding (μένω) means to remain, dwell, continue, stay. It is the language of union.

Fruit is not the result of human effort; it is the result of divine indwelling. Christ said, “I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit… that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you” (John 15:16).

Here the three threads meet:

  • The Name reveals who He is.
  • The Spirit enters because we believe that Name.
  • Abiding becomes possible because the Spirit dwells within.
  • Fruit appears because His life flows through us.

To ask “in His Name” is to ask according to the truth of His identity — Yahweh dwelling in the Son, now dwelling in us by the Spirit. Such asking is always answered, for it is the will of God that we bear much fruit.

IV. The Witness Within

“He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself” (1 John 5:10). The witness is the Spirit. The Spirit is sent in the Name. The Name reveals Yahweh as Savior.

Thus, the believer becomes a living testimony that Yahweh has come in the flesh, that He abides in us, and that His life is now bearing fruit through us.

This is the golden cord tying the three threads together: Believing the Name brings the Spirit. The Spirit enables abiding. Abiding produces fruit. This is the will of God. This is the life of God. This is the revelation of Yahshua. kwh [I pray a blessing on all my readers. If this revelation has met a need, hit that like button and subscribe and make a comment.]
