“¹⁵ He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. ¹⁶ For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities — all things were created through him and for him. ¹⁷ And he is before all things, and in him all things hold together. ¹⁸ And he is the head of the body, the church. He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in everything he might be preeminent. ¹⁹ For in him all the fullness of God was pleased to dwell, ²⁰ and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether on earth or in heaven, making peace by the blood of his cross,” Colossians 1:15-20.

“Then the LORD said to Noah, “Go into the ark, you and all your household, for I have seen that you are righteous before me in this generation,” Genesis 7:1.

“My spirit is being poured out. It is poured out to all who would receive me. But only a few receive me as I AM. For I AM the living expression of my Father. For it is written that, ‘No one comes to the Father except through me.’

No one has seen the living God, but you have seen his expression in me. For I AM the first born among the brethren. I was here at the beginning, always alongside my Father, working with him as One.

Who has seen and who has known? For I AM he whom you seek. The one that you seek will finally come to his temple. Many came to rejoice when they saw me in the flesh. But greater is he who has not seen, but believed.

I have asked many of you to come unto the ark in these days. For it won’t be long before the world’s conditions come to such a peak that many will have wished that they would have come into it.

And now, some of you wonder what type of ark I would have. It would be the type of ark not made with gopher wood, but it would be the living expression of my Son who was poured out as a ransom for many.

For his precious wings will protect you on that day. They will enfold all around you. When the mountains crumble to the sea, and when the earth shakes all around you, then the doors to that ark will swing wide open for you.

For everything that can be shaken will be shaken. And judgment has begun first at the household of God. But woe to those who would not come into the ark. Woe to those who think that they sit in safety. Woe to those who think that they are safe in their homes of timber and rock. For a great tsunami is coming. It will tear at the homes and the coastlines on the east. It will come unexpectedly to those on the west coast as well. You cannot fortify your homes enough. You cannot strengthen your skyscrapers and bridges enough.

Where will you flee to on that day? I tell you that you can run to the everlasting arms of my Son. For he will open wide the doors to the ark. On that day you will know that these things are true.”
