440. Unconditional Love – NO LIMITS

The God I thought I knew twenty years ago—or even twelve years ago—is now a distant memory. He is not what religion taught me He was. He is not what I was conditioned to believe by church or anything else—He is so much better than that. He is so much better. He is so good, so loving, so kind, so thoughtful, so passionate—beyond what I could ever have imagined until I met Him face to face and began to experience how He revealed Himself to me.

Thankfully, He did not do that all in one go, because it would have completely shattered my mind, I expect. But the Father has deconstructed my thinking and expanded my consciousness beyond what I could ever have imagined or thought possible. God is so much bigger, better, further—and creation is beyond what I ever could have imagined. I was conditioned, like most people, to believe you went to heaven when you died. But when God opened up that realm to me, and the dimensions and all those things to engage with Him and to experience—it is just so awesome.

So many of the things I believed about God were programmed into me by religious doctrines and theological understandings that I now know were never true. But I believed they were true, because that was the stream I was in at the time. I started off in the Methodist Church, went to the Brethren Church, eventually started a charismatic church—and I have been on a journey of discovering things. But that was nothing compared to engaging God in the realms of heaven, face to face, or engaging God within me in a place of intimacy.

All the doctrines that were programmed into me about who He was—the angry God, the God who needs appeasing, the Old Testament God as opposed to the New Testament God—all those confusing things, I realised I believed were true because I had never actually met Him. One day, He said to me, “How much of what you know about Me comes directly from Me, and how much of it has come from reading, listening to sermons and other people?” I had to admit—probably ninety-nine percent of what I thought I knew was not from personal experience. Therefore, it was only information, not true knowledge.

All of us have been programmed by the things we have been taught and the things we have received. You could be programmed into a non-religious mindset that is just as religious. You could be in an atheist household and be programmed to believe God does not exist. Or you could be brought up in religious settings, church settings, that have, in a sense, determined what you believe about God, and the Bible, and everything else.

For me, this has been a long, sometimes arduous journey to come to the knowledge of the truth and come to the realisation that, actually, God is love. His love is unconditional. Experiencing that is what He wants us to do—so that we can come into a reality where we love as He loved.

This teaching forms part of Mike Parsons’ new book Unconditional Love, which is out in print on 20 June 2025. Order it from your favourite local or online bookseller today, or get the ebook from our website.  More details at eg.freedomarc.org/books.

Unconditional love is hard to grasp. It is so difficult for people to understand because of the way we have been programmed. For me, if God is love, and He is not unconditional love, then He is not love at all. Because if love is conditional, it cannot be love. You cannot earn love.

Understanding unconditional love—and the nature of it, and why it is so often challenged—is really, really important. I believe this is probably the most important and the biggest key truth that has made the most impact in my life over the last ten to twelve years. The truth that God is unconditional love has been attacked; it has been twisted in many different ways. That is because it is so important that we understand it and experience it. When we experience that unconditional love, it brings freedom. It releases us to be ourselves. It stops us from having to perform to earn it or deserve it.

A phrase any of you familiar with me for any length of time will have heard me say a lot—because the Father said it to me—is: “Live loved, live living, and live loving.” He has said that so many times as an encouragement and a motivation. This is simply how we can live: we can live loved. Now, that does not mean live trying to be loved, or trying to earn love, or deserve love, or be good enough for love. Just live loved. Just accept that we are loved in an unconditional way—in a completely unconditional way. That is the key to this understanding and this experience.

If we are living in that place of living loved, then we can love living. Life is joyous. I look forward to every day, because there is more to experience, more to explore, more to just resting—to just be. And then we can live loving. This is really where the rubber hits the road. To live loving means we have to demonstrate the love to others that we have received. Jesus said, “Love one another as I have loved you.” People strive to love other people—and it is hard sometimes—when they are not very nice to you, and they do things that really make you say, “Well, I do not want to love them. Look how they treated me. Look how they hurt me.”

Any of you who have been involved in church for very long will know how easy it is to be hurt by people—whether deliberately or by accident. It is hard in relationships to maintain a loving attitude to someone all the time and to everybody. That is really difficult. But it is possible, because that is the way God has loved us. God has loved us, and He wants us to love other people in the same way. So if God’s love towards us is unconditional, then our love towards other people should also be unconditional.

Now, I use the word should, and actually, that is a word I want to eliminate from my vocabulary when it comes to God, and relationship, and living life. I do not want to do things because I should do them. Who says I should do them? Did God say I should do them? If so, that is a condition—that I should do something. So what is the consequence of not doing something? If I do not do what God wants me to do, what will He do? So what sort of God do we believe in? What does He do when we do things that do not line up with what He wants us to do? Are there a whole load of things we should do?

On my journey, He has really challenged me about that word. So many of us have that word: “Well, I should do this… I should go to church, I should pray, I should read my Bible, I should witness… I should, I should, I should.” Why should I? Because I am conditioned to? Because I think it is the right thing to do?

God challenged me over things like obedience. Should I be obedient? And of course, I thought, “Well of course I should! Why would I not want to be obedient to God?” But He challenged me. My thinking around that was very old covenant. Because obedience is to something which is a law. God does not want us to obey Him. God wants us to have a relationship with Him in which we share, in which we cooperate with one another—and in which, of course, we would only want to do the things that we see the Father doing. But not because we should, but because we desire to. Because it is the desire of my heart to be in relationship with God, who loves me in such a wonderful way.

So many people accept that God is love—but there is always a but. Religion programmes buts. Yes, that is true, but… I had lots of buts myself in the past. Why? Because it is too good to be true for an independent, alienated mind to accept that God could love you without any condition. We have been programmed by religion to believe we have to do something to deserve or earn love, or to appease anger. That is what God really wants to change. That is the greatest deception. It fools people into trying to earn something that is already theirs by right of inheritance—because we are all His children. We are all co-heirs, whether we know it or not.

We are all God’s children and, therefore by definition, we are all loved unconditionally by a loving Father, overflowing in loving kindness. To experience that and to know that is life-changing.

436. How to Live Forever | Communion (Part 1)

Mike Parsons

Video summary:

We are exploring transformation through communion, and it will take a few parts to unpack properly. Picture the spirit, soul and body gateways diagram with God’s glory at the centre—the River of Life flows outward through us, but only if the blockages are removed.

Transformation involves our whole being, and communion can be part of that process. Communion is more than a ritual. It is a powerful way to engage the body and blood of Jesus in a practical, daily way—not just on Sundays. The early church did it as part of life. We can do the same, wherever we are. The power lies not in the physical bread and wine or juice but in the spiritual reality we engage by faith. When we take communion, we are participating in something that imparts life and transformation. I often go beyond the natural act and engage with communion in the heavenly realms.

Like Isaiah, we can present our hearts and be purified. God’s word penetrates our inner life—revealing our behaviours, motives and even genetic triggers. Communion helps address all of these, even down to our DNA. Old songs like Nothing but the Blood of Jesus capture this truth: there is real, transformational power in the blood.

We can engage the power of Jesus’ blood to receive truth and revelation:

Ephesians 1:7 — In Him we have redemption and forgiveness through His blood, according to the riches of His grace.

Ephesians 2:13 — We, once far off, are now brought near by the blood of Christ, into relationship with Him.

Hebrews 9:14 — His blood cleanses our conscience from dead works so we can serve God in real relationship, not ritual.

Hebrews 13:12 — We are sanctified, set apart and transformed through His blood.

Colossians 1:20 — He reconciles all things through the blood of the cross, bringing peace in every realm.

Romans 5:9 — We are justified by His blood—declared innocent, as if we had never sinned.

Revelation 5:9–10 — Jesus purchased us with His blood to be a kingdom and priests. He opened access to our destiny scrolls, paid for at great cost.

When we break bread, we use declarations born from personal revelation. They help align our faith and words with God’s truth. Without that alignment, it is just bread and juice.

Here are my declarations. There is a lot in them, so we will look at it over the coming sessions.

I eat your flesh and drink your blood so that I will not die but live forever

Jesus said, “Eat My flesh, drink My blood.” This is not physical but spiritual.

John 6 — He says that those who eat of Him will not die but live forever. It is about abiding in Him and Him in us. The manna given to the Israelites could not prevent their ultimate physical death—but this bread can.

Luke 22 — At the Last Supper, He gave bread and wine and said, “This is My body… this is the new covenant in My blood.”

1 Corinthians 11 — Paul received this revelation directly from the Lord. He said we must examine ourselves—’Search my heart, O God’—because this is about covenant, not ritual.

We approach communion, examining our lives and seeking transformation. We do not stop at recognising what needs change—we eat and drink so that change may come. If failing to discern the body properly brings judgment, weakness, sickness and even death, then rightly applying the body and blood brings life and wholeness.

God’s intention is not that we die and go to heaven. That is religious tradition. The Kingdom is within us, and we are called to live it out now. Religion has made a covenant with death by promising heaven only through dying. We do not expect death: Jesus already defeated it. We do not need to die; we apply the cross to reverse the curse.

Transformation—transfiguration—is spiritual and physical. The law of the Spirit of life sets us free from sin and death, and scripture teaches not life after death, but divine life now. We are to partake in God’s nature, putting on immortality and escaping corruption. Jesus dealt with sin so we can live. There is no reason we should not live forever.

Eternal life is both quality and duration. If we are still going to die, it can only be because there is still the record of sin in our DNA. We can address this through the body and blood of Jesus, which restores us to our heavenly origin.

Others have done this—become transfigured, radiant, shining—even without the revelation we now carry. With it, we can accelerate that transformation. God wants us to radiate His glory.

I engage in the DNA of God; I embrace the transforming power of the body and blood of Jesus

To engage means to actively participate by faith—not just partake, but be transformed. Engage by faith. Embrace transformation as a choice. By faith, access the light, sound and frequency that carry God’s image. We were made to reflect him and extend his likeness into creation. The Greek word for ‘image’ is ‘icon’. Our lives should reveal God—like an icon opens a program on your phone or computer—but sin distorts that image. Communion restores it. Jesus’ body and blood carry the DNA of God. In them is the power to transform us into his likeness and live forever.

I engage the record containing the light, sound and frequency of God’s image for transfiguration

We each have a scroll—our original design. We were created as beings of light. That image still exists and can be engaged. Light stores information; as does DNA. God’s DNA and ours are meant to align; as we take communion, we resonate with his frequency and are changed. Jesus was transfigured in light, and as we draw close and align with God, we will radiate his glory. That is what sets creation free.

It is God’s voice that holds everything together. Communion lets us align with that sustaining frequency. Step into the spirit by faith and let your DNA be transformed: your two strands becoming three, incorporating the light strand of your original design. This is how we live and do not die. Choose to apply it by faith.

420. The Power of Resurrection: Our Union with Christ

Mike Parsons

When he was resurrected, I was resurrected

When I used to think about the resurrection, my focus was very much on what Jesus did—overcoming death and defeating sin, and all of that. But as I’ve experienced more of what Jesus did, and my part in it, I’ve come to realise that I was included in it. So when Jesus died, I died. When he was buried, I was buried. When he was resurrected, I was resurrected.

I’m the same as the whole of mankind in receiving what happened at the resurrection. It wasn’t just an individual thing for people who would, in the future, accept what Jesus did on the cross and through the resurrection. It happened as Jesus was resurrected.

I am going to prepare a place for you

He promised to come back and bring people into a resurrection relationship with the Father. I think John 14 is the best illustration of that—Jesus promising that he was going to go away, go to the cross, come back and take them to be where he was. “Where I am,” he said, “you may be also.” Now, “I am” was not a physical location. It wasn’t a spiritual location either—it was a relational position.

In John 14, Jesus talks about “I am in the Father and the Father’s in me.” But people have taken John 14 to mean, “Oh, Jesus has gone into heaven, and one day he’s going to build a house there for us, so we can all go and live in that house—in our house in heaven. He’s going to come back and take us there.”

That teaching has placed what Jesus did in the resurrection solely in the future, after we die, when we get physically resurrected. So we expect death and resurrection in the future, based on what Jesus did. But actually, that’s a completely wrong understanding of that passage. The passage is really talking about the union of relationship we have within “I am.”

It was a union thing, because John 14:1–3 is a marriage statement. In the Hebrew marriage tradition, when a couple got betrothed, the bridegroom would go and build a house—usually attached to his father’s house. He would say, “I am going away to prepare a place for you,” to his future wife. And she would say, “When are you coming again to take me to yourself?”

Now, this was a well-known understanding at the time. But we often read John 14 in today’s culture and completely misunderstand it. Jesus was basically saying, “I am going to the cross, and through the cross I’m going to prepare you to be a place where I can dwell—where you will be in ‘I am’ just as I am in ‘I am’ with the Father.”

On that day

Later on in the chapter, he says, “On that day you will know that I am in you, and you are in me, and we’re in the Father.” On that day—that was the resurrection day. He literally came back, went into heaven, received the kingdom and then came to his disciples and breathed onto them, saying, “Receive the Holy Spirit.”

That was the moment where the disciples became representatives of the new man in Christ. Whereas Adam had been the representative of the old man when God breathed into him — everyone died in Adam. When Adam walked into death, everyone died in him. But everyone has been made alive in Christ.

So the whole of mankind was represented in Christ when he went into death, into the grave, and was resurrected. And when Jesus breathed onto the disciples, they experienced the Holy Spirit filling them, or coming into them. The whole of mankind had the Spirit come into them, but they didn’t know—because they didn’t have the relationship with Jesus or the Spirit that the disciples had.

The disciples already had a relational connection, which became very different, because God came to dwell in them. But God came to dwell in all mankind. Most of mankind has not come into a knowledge or experience of that, even though it’s true. But God is at work in everybody to reveal that truth.

Resurrection applies to everyone

So the power of the resurrection over physical death applies to everyone. If we embrace what Jesus did and partake of it, then we also don’t need to die. Jesus basically said, “If you eat my flesh and drink my blood”—in other words, if you partake of me—then you won’t die.

Immortality is a consequence of embracing the power of the resurrection. Jesus overcame death, and we were in him overcoming death. Now, to start with, you could say that was spiritual death, but it didn’t stay spiritual. Jesus’s death wasn’t just spiritual—his body died. That meant that when his body was resurrected, it was the firstfruits of our resurrection.

The teaching of the church over the last thousand or so years has lessened what Jesus said and made the power of the resurrection only really about salvation. It hasn’t applied it to wholeness, health or immortality. So the thinking has become: “Well, I get spiritual life. But I’m going to die again, and I’ll go to heaven, where the resurrection will take place for me.”

Whereas actually, it is designed to take place now. Jesus being transfigured before he went to the cross was an illustration of that—that we are to be transfigured and become who God intended us to be—as light, if you like, as God is light.

419. Jesus Saves Us From The Father’s Wrath? NO!

Mike Parsons

Wrath? Whose wrath?

Another wrong interpretation of the Bible paints the picture of a God who is angry, full of wrath, and ready to torment and punish. But unconditional love does not fail or give up. It is faithful, persistent, and wins in the end. So, God has no reason to be angry. People often struggle with this concept, but the Bible clearly says that Jesus came to take away the sins of the world—in other words, our lost identity. He also nailed every accusation against us to the cross. They were defeated and finished. It also says that God was in Christ, in 2 Corinthians 5:19, reconciling the world to himself, not counting their sins against them—not counting their trespasses against them. So, if there’s nothing to hold against anyone, why would God be angry, and what wrath would he have to punish anyone with? He wouldn’t. He doesn’t. He hasn’t. Love keeps no record of wrongs.

Romans 5:8 in the NIV says: “But God demonstrates his own love toward us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” Which is absolutely true. Even when we were in our lost identity, Jesus died for us. He didn’t wait for us to recover our identity, sort ourselves out or be good enough. He died for us—as us. We died with him while we were still in that lost state. Then verse 9 says: “Much more then, having now been justified by his blood, we shall be saved from the wrath of God through him.”

So this is saying, quite correctly, that we’ve been justified by his blood… but how much more shall we be saved from God’s wrath through him? Jesus came to save us from his Father’s wrath? No. That isn’t the truth. In fact, this verse does not say that. If you look at the original Greek, it does not say we are saved from God’s wrath.

So what is the wrath we’ve been saved from?

Not God’s! Does God store up his wrath to pour out on his children? Absolutely not—because he has no wrath to pour out. So does “the wrath” here have a different meaning? Because it’s talking about the wrath—a very specific wrath. Does it come from another source? Yes—and we’re going to look at what it is.

(A clue to this is found in who Jesus says comes to rob, kill and destroy. The thief. The accuser. The devil. And who is it that desires to give us abundant life? Jesus—the Good Shepherd. That comes from John 10:10.)

Romans 5:9 does not actually mention anything about God’s wrath. In fact, there are two Bible versions that include the phrase “wrath of God”, but put of God in italics, admitting that it was not in the original Greek: it was added to help the reader understand (or so the translator thought) but it has actually created a deception. They assumed it meant God’s wrath, since they didn’t know the love of God. They assumed that’s what it meant—but it wasn’t there at all.

For example, the NASB says: “Much more then, having now been justified by his blood, we shall be saved from the wrath of God through him.” But “of God” is in italics—because it’s not in the original. It was added. The NTE doesn’t put it in italics. It says: “Much more, because we’ve now been declared righteous by his blood, we shall be saved through him from God’s wrath.” But it does put a note: “Greek: the wrath (referring to God’s wrath as in verse 10).” So, what does verse 10 actually say?

For if, while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, how much more, since we have been reconciled, shall we be saved by his life? (Romans 5:10).

Where does it mention “God’s wrath” there? We needed to be reconciled to God—God did not need to be reconciled to us. He has never, ever turned from us. It’s we who turned from him. It was our wrath that God in Christ endured—not God’s wrath waiting to crush us. Because God has no wrath and no desire to crush anyone. He is a loving, restoring God.

So what is the correct translation?

Well, in this case, the King James Version actually gets it right. It says: “Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.” It doesn’t add “God’s”—just “wrath”. The Young’s Literal Translation says: “Much more, then, having been declared righteous now in his blood, we shall be saved through him from the wrath.” That’s what it actually says.

If the wrath we’re saved from is not God’s, then whose is it?

Paul was using the Septuagint translation, which also included a book called The Wisdom of Solomon. That book was in all Christian Bibles until the 1500s, when it was removed from most. It’s still in some. The Wisdom of Solomon—which Paul would have known and read—gives us insight into the wrath, and whose wrath it is. In writing what he did, Paul would have known this verse:

So he overcame the destroyer, not with the strength of body nor force of arms, but with a subdued him that punished, alleging the oaths and covenants made with the fathers. For when the dead were now fallen down in heaps one upon another, standing between them, he stayed the wrath and diverted the way to the living. (Wisdom of Solomon 18:22-3).

In other words, this was describing what God was doing to the destroyer—the one who was punishing—so that the wrath would be stopped, and people wouldn’t be killed.

So what is “the wrath” that God’s servant overcomes? The wrath—another name for the destroyer—who, by this point, the Jews no longer associated with God, but with Satan. (Remember, they had previously had an undifferentiated view of God in which they thought ‘the destroyer’ was God even though Satan may have been doing the work.)

Jesus saves us—not from his loving Father—but is sent by the Father to save us from the wrath. The destroyer. The accuser. Satan. That has a totally different connotation.

Which translation should I trust?

Revealing these differences in translation—where some words have been mistranslated—can cause confusion. People often ask: “Which translation should I read? Which should I trust?”

The answer, really, is to trust the Good Shepherd—Jesus—the Way, the Truth, and the Life—who said we can hear his voice and follow him. Follow Jesus. Don’t follow your interpretation of what you think the Bible might say. Yes, the Holy Spirit can bring us revelation of truth. But it’s difficult when we’ve already been programmed to believe we know what the truth is. We’re all confirmationally biased, which means it’s really hard to be deconstructed.

For me, it was such a hard process for God to deconstruct my mind from the things I thought were true—things I had never really questioned. I had some struggles, but I hadn’t questioned deeply enough to seek the real answer. It took experiences of unconditional love to bring that change. I believe we can use unconditional love as the plumb line to discern what is true. The gospel is good news—not bad news. If we know the true good news, we’ll be free from the deceptions that misrepresent God, misrepresent us, and misrepresent how God treats and loves us.

An “unbiased translator” is an oxymoron. In reality, everyone is biased by something. The question is: are you biased by love or by theology? Take the Mirror Bible, for instance—translated by Francois du Toit. His bias is love. He sees God as a mirror of who we are. I don’t mind that bias. But I struggle with a bias that translates things through a belief that God is angry and will punish his children forever.

Your ability to judge a translation doesn’t come from your linguistic skills or academic credentials—some people have those and some don’t. It comes from your personal knowledge of who Jesus is—the nature of God as revealed by him—and the gospel of unconditional love that he preached.

Unconditional love is the reality. God loves us in such an unconditional way that he continually seeks us out to reveal we have been saved from our lostness. In the YouTube video, The Gospel of the Chairs, by Brad Jersak, which I’d encourage everyone to watch, God never turns away from us—he always turns towards us—so that we can be restored to relationship.

God’s love is so unconditional that he designed us to be immortal—to have a continual, unbroken relationship with him. Death was the result of Adam—representing mankind—walking in independence, away from life. Jesus came to undo what Adam did, and undo the consequences brought by the enemy, including death—by taking back the keys of death and Hades, and revealing what was hidden—who we really are.

418. Revelation of the Merkabah

Mike Parsons

Recap: Introducing the Merkabah

We have immortal life energy flowing within us through the Merkabah. As we saw last time, the Merkabah can help regenerate the soul and physical body. The energy it focuses aids healing as it interacts with a person’s subtle energy fields, such as the unified energy field, promoting healing by raising frequency. Much illness stems from low emotional and mental frequencies because thoughts of fear, worry and anxiety lower our frequency, making us more susceptible to sickness.

When we live in abundant health, we cultivate an energy field within us that raises our frequency, aligning us with the frequency of health. This is why focusing our thoughts and emotions on love, joy, peace and other positive states promotes health. Our entire immune system is designed to function optimally when we maintain an attitude of gratitude and thanksgiving. The Merkabah’s healing effects help prolong life, but true connection to the unified quantum field brings abundant life and immortality by drawing from God’s life force.

This process works as we focus our intentions and align our frequencies with love, joy and peace, bringing rest and accessing God’s abundant life energy within us. As explored last time, this is like drinking from the eternal source described in John 4 and John 7, where rivers of living water flow from the core of our being, symbolising spirit, life, energy and light. The living light energy flows to the Merkabah, where it is focused and distributed through our seven energy gates, providing limitless energy and abundant life. This process is also connected to the Sephiroth or the Tree of Life, whose geometric shape links to the energy gates and is designed to balance spirit and soul, bringing wholeness to our body.

It is not enough to function solely in the spirit without manifestation in the soul, nor to operate only in the soul without spiritual grounding. We need a harmonious balance of both, embodying the principle of ‘on earth as it is in heaven’, to bring our body into the wholeness experienced by our spirit and soul.

Merkabah truth revealed

The Father has revealed much truth about the Merkabah to me. When he first spoke to me about this, I didn’t fully understand, and to be honest, I still don’t grasp it all. However, I believe the truth of what he said and recognise it as a journey of discovery. As I share these insights, I invite you to embrace them and seek the Father for your own revelation.

The Merkabah has multiple levels of revelation and application that will unfold with the maturity of sonship. As we mature, we will gain a deeper understanding of and ability to function within this truth. For many, the first level is as the chariot of Ezekiel, which moves heavenly thrones dimensionally. You can read about this chariot—the word Merkabah—and how it moves things in the heavens.

Another level involves the application of energy linked to gateways, sometimes called chakras, and entering through portals as gateways. These are dimensions of revelation to be experienced. When the Father first spoke to me about these concepts, I wasn’t aware I could enter portals inwardly. While I was doing so, I didn’t understand how or that I could consciously choose to do it.

There is also a connection to the governmental positions within the Tree of Life and Metatron’s Cube in light. Initially, I didn’t understand this, prompting me to explore the Tree of Life and its relationship to my seven energy gates and the Merkabah within me. As I engaged with this revelation, the Father helped me understand that the Tree of Life is meant to unify spirit and soul with the body, bringing balance and wholeness.

Metatron’s Cube, which is central to the Merkabah’s sacred geometric shape, is a whole topic on its own. I have explored some aspects of it, but I know there is much more to learn. Using limitless grace energy to create and choose reality by drawing from the unified quantum field is not a common revelation but will become clearer with expanded consciousness.

When God first spoke to me about the unified quantum field, I had no idea what it meant. I didn’t understand how to choose reality from an energy field I couldn’t comprehend. However, the Father was teaching me to align with his heart, expanding my consciousness and shifting my perspective. Quantum physics suggests that the observer chooses reality, meaning reality responds to our observation or choice.

As I learned to apply this, I saw many instances where choosing a reality aligned with the Father’s heart produced what some might call miracles. In truth, it was simply aligning with his reality rather than my own or others’ expectations.

Activating our energy gates and fields through intentionality is crucial. We must deliberately choose and focus—this doesn’t happen randomly. Intentionality is the first step towards generating and directing energy as frequency. Everything is made up of energy and frequency, which we perceive as matter when it vibrates at certain frequencies.

The Father taught me that by activating my energy gates and the surrounding energy field, I could create a flow of living water from my innermost being. This flow extends out through the gateways of my body, creating energy fields where I can live in peace, rest, life and abundance. This is a state of frequency.

The sacred geometric image

Son, look deeper into the sacred geometric image and use this knowledge to increase your thought energy and creative ability. When the Father said this, I had no idea what he meant. I recognised the image, as I had it behind me in my previous office. It was a large picture on the wall, and I would often find myself looking into it, wondering what I was seeing, what it meant and how it related to me and my thoughts. The more I did this, the more the Father began to show me that this knowledge of dimensional connections and portals within the Merkabah meant I could use my thought energy in a creative way.

God then took me on a journey, showing me how I could operate within what he called the Cradle of Life, a place within his heart where I could come into resonant agreement with him. Through this process, I could become his voice, and as I creatively spoke, light would begin to respond to me. At the time, I didn’t understand any of this, but I set my heart on it. I pondered it, treasured it, and held it close, even though I had no real clue what it meant. This treasuring, this incubation—being pregnant with something—allowed it to grow. As it grew within me, it began to manifest and be birthed.

The unified quantum field can be the connection between your consciousness and creation through the Elementals, which are connected to the living light strings of our grace. I know that’s a lot to take in. I remember thinking: unified quantum field, consciousness, creation, Elementals, living light strings of grace… it was a lot to process.

Elementals

The Elementals are beings that God created for us to connect with creation. We often think of them as earth, fire, air and water, but there is also the ether, which is the field we can engage with. We can learn to interact with all of them, connecting with them so that life begins to outwork in our lives towards creation.

Son, engage the Elementals through the Merkabah by your consciousness, not just in physical locations. This way, you can connect to all dimensions or realities to restore hope. At the time, I was on a journey to engage things dimensionally, and this helped me realise there are Elementals in the dimensions as well as on earth.

You can connect to the elements, to the trees, the earth, the plants and all living things. I’ve done a lot of this over the past year, particularly through gardening. I’ve spent a lot of time looking after the garden, tending and cultivating the trees, growing things and connecting my conscious choices to them for favour, blessing and bounty. As a result, I’ve enjoyed bountiful harvests from what I’ve planted, as I’ve engaged at an Elemental level in a sentient way with creation and my thinking.

We have a large cherry tree at the front of the house. When I asked if we got cherries from it, the answer was, “Not many, and the blackbirds eat most of those.” So, I set my heart on engaging with the tree. I communed with it through the Elementals, connecting with it so I could communicate my desire for it to produce an abundance of cherries—enough for all our needs and more, enough for every good deed. I wanted enough for the neighbours, for the blackbirds and for us too.

That year, we had an amazing harvest of cherries. I believe we are designed to connect with creation, just as Adam and Eve were placed in the garden to tend and cultivate it, receiving a bounty through cooperation rather than exploitation. God wants to show us how to connect with creation in a positive way, broadcasting messages of hope and light.

Broadcast messages of hope

Son, the Merkabah can connect to dimensions and also broadcast intentional thought energy to the Babel-like towers you have seen. When the Tower of Babel existed on Earth, it served as a communication system to connect to the heavens and alter dimensions. However, what it broadcast was the negative frequency of our lost identity out to those dimensions.

As God opened those dimensions for me to visit and engage with, I encountered beings who wanted help. When I engaged with them, they wanted to know how they could find freedom and restoration. Why? Because they were feeling our energy—the energy of sonship—and were drawn to it. As they began to reach out, God opened the door to connect with them. When I visited several of their dimensional places, I saw Babel-like towers in each of them, created to connect to our dimensional reality for communication. I disrupted that communication, instead broadcasting into those dimensions the truth of God’s love, freedom and the true frequencies of our full identity as sons of God, counteracting the negative frequencies of our lost identity.

This has been a journey and a process to come into this type of reality. The Father said, ‘Son, use this ability to send love letters as messages of hope and freedom dimensionally.’ I’ve been doing this by engaging the Earth shield and the dimensions as part of who I am, to communicate God’s love not just on Earth but into every dimensional reality.

Frequency of the Oracles

Creation does not distinguish between the frequency of sound produced by the voice, a bowl or your mind as you think the sound. I had already experimented with crystal bowls and using their frequencies with intention, seeing healing and other results. The Father showed me—and will show all of us—that creation does not differentiate between those sounds. Whether we speak, produce a frequency and release an intention, or simply think, the frequency functions just like sound. At a quantum level, all frequency-generating methods have the same effect, where photonic strings of grace and living light respond to our sonship mandate.

I’ve learned this over time. Initially, I didn’t understand, but as I continued to pursue this, I began to learn how to use my mind and intention to focus my thinking and engage. The Father said, ‘Son, this is the function of oracles and legislators. Remember the four faces of God in regard to the order of Melchizedek: man, lion, ox, eagle—priest, king, oracle, legislator.’

When we are an oracle—when we speak from the heart of God with the voice of God—we can legislate, bringing that authority into manifestation. I don’t want to be an oracle of my own thoughts or a legislator of my own ideas. I want to resonate with the Father’s heart, with the oracles of his heart, with his passion, burning desire, overwhelming love, deep compassion and intense joy. Those are the oracles of his heart. I want to resonate with them, be motivated by them and embody them when I engage with creation, dimensions, fallen beings and people. My desire is to reflect the Father’s heart, resonating with it and carrying that essence of love.

The hearts of sons produce pentatonic energy fields, designed to generate the oracle frequencies to connect with creation. When I first heard this, I thought, ‘What on earth does that mean?’ I’m not a musician and had no understanding of pentatonic scales or pentatonic energy fields. But I treasured this revelation and pursued it. I researched and learned that pentatonic musical scales—five notes—are always harmonious.

For someone who isn’t a musician, this meant I could use five crystal bowls to play harmonious sounds. I then asked the Father, ‘What are the frequencies of the oracles of your heart? What are they, really?’ The Father showed me those frequencies. I played the five notes on my crystal bowls, recorded them and tuned them to match the frequencies he showed me. By doing this, I could play those notes with the power to bring about the manifestation of the oracles of his heart, demonstrating his passion, burning desire and the amazing ways he sees, thinks about and interacts with us.

Guard your heart

The Father continued,

This is why the pure of heart can see beyond and why life flows from the heart. The heart here is not the physical organ or the soul; it is the union of soul and spirit—our innermost being. When our hearts are pure, life flows freely.

“Son, this ability to choose and create reality has been limited to the unconscious and subconscious, which means we keep creating the realities in which we were birthed and experienced in the past. It has mostly been lost to the conscious mind, but it is being restored. We will soon be able to choose a different reality from the one we are programmed to live in by our past. If we continue to operate from the memory of past experiences, we will keep creating the same reality, repeating the same cycles over and over again. However, when we begin to choose new creation realities, we will find our ability restored, enabling us to live in a completely different dimensional way.

“A heart motivated by the selfishness of the do-it-yourself tree path, the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, will only create more chaos if it accesses these abilities. This is why we lost these bandwidth abilities in the past—because we were using them for our own gain, whether good or bad, which is ultimately selfish. Only as our hearts are renewed, restored, and made whole, and as we begin to operate from the heart of God, will the fullness of these abilities be released to us. That is why we need to mature.

“A pure, undivided heart resonating with love’s oracles is the only way to bring about restoration at a creational and dimensional level. Son, guard your heart and focus on developing the pentatonic frequencies and energy fields around your being and spheres.”

When he spoke of spheres, he meant areas of authority that I hold. I began to learn how to engage my heart with the pentatonic frequencies. I played them on the crystal bowls, engaging them intentionally and creating energy fields around me from what was developing. These energy fields were the oracles of the Father’s heart.

I want people around me to feel God’s passion for them—his burning desire for a relationship with them, his intense joy when he thinks of them, his deep compassion, and his overwhelming love.

Matthew 12:34: “For the mouth speaks out of that which fills the heart.” We need to ensure that what fills our hearts is good.

Matthew 5:8: “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.” We must look at our hearts, ensuring they are being restored, healed, and able to focus and choose the right intentions.

Proverbs 4:20: “My son, give attention to my words; incline your ear to my sayings. Do not let them depart from your sight; keep them in the midst of your heart.”

When we engage with the heart of the Father—face to face, heart to heart, mind to mind—when we engage the cradle of life and his thoughts and intentions, they begin to shape us. If we keep them within the heart as the centre of our motivation for what we think, feel, and do, they will bring life to those who find them and health to their whole body. This is a statement of immortality.

We need the reality and truth of God’s heart in our own hearts. That truth, when at the core of our being, will bring life and health.

“Watch over your heart with all diligence, for from it flow the springs of life.”

Immortal life flows from the core of our heart, which is the centre of the energy gates connected to the Merkabah, flowing with energy from Heaven through us. This energy is then dissipated into our body, energising us for life.

It is crucial to keep our heart—our spirit and soul—in union and oneness with the Father, Son, and Spirit, not separated, so that life can flow.

We need to focus and give attention to what God says and reveals—not just through the Bible but through his words to us directly. Jesus said, “My sheep will hear my voice, and they will follow me.” We must ensure we focus on what God has said to us.

Becoming godlike

As we mature and ascend higher, we will discover creative abilities far beyond what we could have ever imagined. We have the ability to live multi-dimensionally—not just in the angelic realms of heaven and earth—but to engage and travel dimensionally and through time. All of this is part of the eternal aspect of our life as sons of God—our immortal and eternal life.

We need to embrace this truth and come into the fullness of it. I encourage you to be open to a completely different framework of thinking, to be unlimited by time and space.

It is truly amazing. I remain in awe of the things God has spoken to me about. Even though I do not understand everything, I treasure these revelations and believe this reality will manifest as I fully embrace them. Ultimately, I believe we are all in a creative process. God is taking us Beyond Human, as Justin would say—restoring humanity from a lost identity back into mankind made in God’s creative image. We are becoming godlike, as sons of our heavenly Father, who is limitless. Our experiences of this truth will challenge and transform our view of life, our mindsets, and our belief systems.

Activation: Energised with Life

So again, I just encourage you to close your eyes
And as you close your eyes
Just begin to relax

Get into a comfortable position
Into rest
Start focusing your thinking
On the Father

On the Holy Spirit

Start to breathe very slowly
Breathe in
And breathe out very, very slowly

And as you’re breathing in
Consciously focus on breathing in
The unconditional love of the Father

Just breathe it in
Hold it
Let it energise you
Let it fill you
Let it flow through you

And breathe out
Breathe in unconditional love
So you can truly know who God is as love
Embrace it

Slowly dial everything down
To that place of rest

Focus on Father, Son and Spirit within you

Choose to open the gateways of your spirit, soul and body
As you choose, open that gateway of first love
To embrace Father, Son and Spirit
Consciously choose to drink from the source
Drink from the fountain
Drink, drawing from the life of Jesus
The Way, the Truth, the Life

Drink deeply into your innermost being
So that rivers of living water
Rivers of life
Rivers of light energy
Start to flow through the gateways
Of your spirit, soul and body

That river flows to your innermost being
To your core
The union of Father, Son and Spirit
And your body, soul and spirit
Where it meets within the Merkabah
And is focused

Let that river begin to focus
And build and energise

And then see that river flowing
To your seven energy gates
And begin to activate your crown

Activate each of those energy gates
Let it activate your heart
And let each one be energised with life

Feel—if you need insight
If you need to be able to see
In the realm of spiritual things—
That it would open that gateway
The eyes of your heart will be enlightened

If you need to speak wisdom, truth, love
That your voice gate will be activated with energy
causing you to speak life

Each of your gateways
Energised

It will turn salt water fresh
You’re creating life around you
Flowing
Energising each of the spheres
You have been called and chosen to engage
Those spheres of family
Those spheres of work
Maybe those spheres of church
Those spheres of different aspects of your life

That you’re creating energy and life for those fields
Energising them

You can live in that bubble of energy
Of life and abundance

Just begin to rest in that energy
In that love

416. Reconnecting Your Spirit | Finding Wholeness in God

Mike Parsons

True identity

Our spirit itself is not damaged or impure; it is simply not connected. Our spirit has never truly been disconnected from God, but our soul has been. When we realise that God is within us and we open that first love gate in our spirit, we allow God to flow into us, engaging spirit, soul and body. This marks the start of a relational engagement with God, helping us find our true identity.

Most people derive their identity from what they do in the world or from past experiences, rather than from who God says they are. Our spirit already knows who we are because our origin has always been in God. The spirit existed before our body and soul; it pre-existed before coming into the body, but entered into a state of disconnection when it did.

Into union

God desires to reveal himself in a way that reconnects us, making us whole and bringing us into union with him—spirit, soul and body. When this union occurs, life flows like rivers of living water, an abundant life from the inside out. Instead of allowing external experiences to shape our inner life, our inner life should shape our external experience. This is God’s intention for us.

We can cultivate our spirit and increase our spiritual capacity by focusing on our spiritual senses rather than our physical and soul senses. This is a meditative practice—meditating on the spirit, its abilities and senses. As we do this, our spiritual senses grow and develop, allowing us to operate intuitively in the spirit rather than relying solely on cognitive processing.

Through practice

Some may believe that the spirit can be damaged, but I do not. I believe the spirit has never been damaged or occupied by anything other than God. However, this does not mean we automatically function through the spirit, as we often lack the training and understanding to do so. Hebrews teaches us that through practice, we can train our senses to discern. This applies to both our physical and soul senses, aligning them with our spiritual senses and prioritising spiritual understanding over cognitive processes.

When we engage in the spirit, it acts as a filter for external influences, offering insight before the soul interprets them. Our goal is to discern through the spirit rather than relying solely on memory, logic, reason or cognitive understanding. Developing this spiritual discernment takes time, as we have often lived with the soul as the dominant force in determining how we act, think and feel.

To shift this, we must cultivate a new framework of thinking and acting from our spiritual senses rather than allowing our physical and soul senses to take the lead. This process requires patience and practice, but the transformation is profound, enabling us to live in abundance and alignment with God’s purpose for us.

410. Mastering Energy Generation

Mike Parsons –

Fatigue and creative energy

Many people don’t know how to generate the energy needed to live day to day. They feel tired, weary and drained, lacking both creative energy and the vitality required for their daily lives. This happens because they don’t know how to focus the abundant life that exists at the core of their innermost being. They don’t know how to generate, activate and channel that energy effectively.

We have energy gates within our body that can facilitate this process, but most people are unaware of how to open and activate them. This isn’t something commonly taught—especially within Christian circles. In fact, many evangelicals would be horrified at the mere mention of “energy gates,” dismissing it as New Age or something strange they want nothing to do with.

Yet, in reality, they are missing out on a crucial part of how we were designed to function. Learning to generate and direct energy isn’t some mystical or foreign concept—it’s about understanding how to channel living water, or what some might call light energy, into our daily lives. There are many analogies for it, but we are talking about spiritual life—abundant spiritual life—flowing from within us.

Energy gates

Most people don’t even realise that they have gateways within their spirit, soul and body that are designed to allow this life force to flow freely. Instead of experiencing the full flood of abundant life, they live on a trickle—because they’ve never been taught how to open these gateways. In fact, many Christians have been taught the exact opposite, which is why so many struggle to understand the flow of life and energy within them.

They’ve never been taught that they are a tri-part being—spirit, soul and body—and that all three must function in union. They don’t know how to activate and open these inner doors so that they can live in a continuous state of being in communion with life itself.

Jesus is in us, the Spirit is in us, and the Father dwells within us. But are we truly embracing that? Or are we searching for an external source—for someone else to give us what we feel we lack?

A critique of traditional teachings

Many people seek healing by looking for an external impartation—someone to lay hands on them and transfer an anointed charge of energy that will heal them. But what happens afterwards? Many people who receive healing end up sick again or even dying later because they don’t know how to sustain the healing they received. They never learned how to generate and maintain that healing within themselves. They relied on someone else to provide it, so they never developed the ability to keep it. The majority of people who minister healing don’t teach others how to maintain health and well-being—they simply move on after laying hands and praying.

There are genuine people who operate in these gifts, and they see real miracles and healings. But how many of those healed return a year later to testify that they are still well? If the root causes of their sickness remain unaddressed, the healing is often temporary. Unless they deal with the underlying factors—whether physical, emotional or spiritual—the illness can return.

Unlocking abundant life energy

What we really need is to teach people how to live in abundant life, how to embrace well-being as a way of life, rather than just seeking instant healing. Abundance isn’t just about financial wealth—it’s about emotional, spiritual and physical wealth. It’s about living in a state of fullness.

Jesus promised us abundant life, but the enemy seeks to rob, kill and destroy. If he can keep people from knowing the truth, if he can convince them to believe lies, then they will never live in the abundance that is already theirs. They have been robbed without even realising it.

It all comes down to our relationship with God as the source of life. What source are we drinking from? Are we drawing from the eternal fountain of life within us, or are we relying on external sources? Are we looking to church, ministries, or Christian teachings instead of directly connecting with Jesus?

Jesus said, “If you drink the water I give you, rivers of living water will flow from within you.” He was speaking about the Spirit—the very life of God within us. That is the source we need to draw from. It’s not about following techniques for healing or looking for external solutions—it’s about living in the overflow of life itself.

And that is only possible through relationship. It’s not a formula. It’s not a ritual. It’s a relationship—a deep, ongoing connection—with the source of life.

407. Intentional Healing | My testimony of healing from Ménière’s disease

Mike Parsons

The Father’s intention

‘Not having an agenda’ when you do have one is quite difficult, because you do have an agenda: you want to find healing.

The shift happens when you align with the Father’s intention. Instead of thinking, “I want to be healed,” you rest in the reality of “I am healed.” Symptoms may persist, but they will follow your position of rest.

Jesus said, “Pray, believing you’ve received, and you will receive.” When you truly know the Father’s intention and accept healing as your inheritance, your body will align with your belief. But this can’t come from striving—it starts with accepting what God has already declared true.

Most people believe it when they’ve received it, rather than before they’ve received it; and it works when you believe it before you have actually manifested it, because that is what brings the manifestation. And people get disappointed because the symptoms are still there. They may say “I’m healed,” but actually they’re in denial.

“Well, I’m healed,”
“Do you still have the symptoms?”
“Yes”
“Okay, so are you healed or are you not healed?”
“Well…”

And you get all this muddled mixture of thoughts and feelings around it. And I know when I speak to someone and they’re not in denial: they can honestly say “There are still symptoms in my body but my body is aligning with how I think.”

You can consciously choose to call that into being. Therefore the frequency of your words will begin to vibrate your body into alignment with it, when you’re at rest in it. So a lot of people say, “Renew your mind” and they confess scripture; they are just speaking, they are not actually renewing their mind. You can’t renew your own mind, your mind gets renewed when you agree with God’s mind.

Striving to believe often hinders the manifestation. So it’s getting that fine balance… it is the truth that you are healed, but it might not be the fact within your present situation. When the truth is more true to you than the symptoms that you might still have, that is the point where things begin to change.

My testimony of healing from Ménière’s disease

Years ago, I had Ménière’s disease, which caused vertigo and other symptoms. This was the 1early 1990s, and I went on a quest for healing, because I didn’t know what I believed about it. I’d been prayed for many times and received healing, so I knew God could heal. I knew people could lay hands on me –  and I’d been healed. But none of that worked in this situation. God was trying to get me to look at “What do you really believe about healing?”

So I did what I knew to do, then: I went back and found every Bible verse on healing, and looked at them, and discovered some things that were different from what I’d believed. Because at that point I was believing that healing was in God’s Kingdom, but that we were still in the ‘now, and the not yet’ of God’s Kingdom; so sometimes God would heal and sometimes not. Well, that’s not really helpful, you know, because what if I am is the one where it doesn’t happen, and I’m stuck?

So I realised that no, God IS my healer, it’s one of His names. Jesus actually took my sickness and disease when He died so I don’t have to have it. That sickness died when I died with Him.

So why am I not just perfectly whole? Well, because even though I might actually choose to believe that, my physical body has to come into agreement; therefore some change needs to take place within my physical being to align with where I am in that place of rest, knowing the truth. The truth you know will set you free, and you have to know by experience.

Now, that doesn’t mean you have to experience the healing to know the healing; you have to experience what God says and where you are in the experience with God. So you are resting in that reality; it is the truth. There is no double-mindedness; there is no doubt or unbelief; it is the truth, and no one could convince you otherwise – even the symptoms that you might still have – and therefore you are at rest in it. “I’m not striving for it; I know it’s the truth that will bring about the reality.”

But it often takes some time to get to that point because we have to overcome the battle of the thoughts and the symptoms to get to that point where we “know that we know.” And eventually, after about three years of learning all about healing, learning about God, learning about what Jesus did on the cross, learning how that all applied, I got to the point where I was at rest.

I never said “Well, I am healed.” It is more that I was thinking, “That is the truth, so I’m going to focus on what is true rather than what might be the present fact.” So the present reality didn’t affect what I saw as being my true reality, which was to be whole, to be healed. And eventually, after resting in that place for quite a while, I was content in it. I was still taking medication, because it is dangerous to drive if you’re going to get vertigo attacks and things like that. It wasn’t pleasant medication, but I was taking it.

And one day I had the breakthrough, in that something changed physically in my ears. I had deafness and tinnitus in one ear – severely – and I could hardly hear anything other than muffled sound. The tinnitus was quite pronounced. And I was listening to some music – I was in a conference actually, in a worship conference, and all of a sudden it was as if “Who turned the PA up?” You see, it was as if the volume just went up and I thought “Wow!!!” And then I realised, “I don’t think anyone else is noticing this, it must be me!” And then I felt God say, “Now you can throw the medication away.” And I did. I never took another tablet and never had another vertigo attack or anything else, and my hearing was fine.

PLEASE NOTE: We strongly advise you to consult a suitably qualified health professional before discontinuing any medication that has been prescribed for you.

But it took a number of years to get to that point and then it took months living at that point until the reality was there. And, you know, for me it was a dramatic thing – it was like BANG! OH! It’s done! But it’s not always that way. Sometimes it’s just that the process gets to the point where you just realise “Oh, can’t hear anything wrong in my ear anymore,” or “my hearing’s improved.” Sometimes it just creeps up on you and sometimes it’s progressive in that it gets better and continues to get better until it’s completely healed.

You know, Jesus sent the lepers to the Temple to show themselves to the priests, and it happened along the way. As they were walking, they still bore the signs of leprosy. Perhaps it faded gradually with each step, or maybe they were simply walking when, all at once, they realised it was gone. But eventually they showed themselves to the priests… (we know one of them definitely did, because he came back and said thank you. We’re not really sure about the others – they may have been healed and just not bothered to come back and thank Jesus, or they may have not, because on the way they may have had doubt and unbelief and not followed through the process – who knows?) But we know definitely that the one person did:  he was able to show himself to the priest and the priest pronounced him healed, or whole.

So it takes time, and no one can really determine exactly what the process is for every individual, but it does work.

406. Recognise the Finished Work of Jesus

Mike Parsons

The Bible was

At that time, the Bible was still the living Word of God for me—not Jesus. I saw the Bible as the Word that washed me, not Jesus. I relied on the Bible to separate my soul and spirit, rather than allowing Jesus to do it. I used the Bible as a mirror to see myself, rather than looking to Jesus or the Father.

Jesus, mediator of a New Covenant

During this process, I was presenting myself in the heavenly tabernacle as a living sahttps://freedomarc.blog/2014/01/21/present-a-living-sacrifice-3-practice/crifice, prepared by me, acting as my own high priest. Now, that might sound bizarre, but when I first received this revelation and began engaging in the heavenly tabernacle, this is what I thought I was doing.

I approached the laver—a basin used for washing—which I understood to have a bronze, mirror-like surface. I used it as a mirror to wash myself through the Bible, performing the role of my own high priest. I consumed the showbread as biblical food, again as my own high priest. I sought wisdom from the light of the menorah, the Bible, instead of Jesus. I engaged the altar, refining myself through the Bible, all the while acting as my own high priest.

In truth, all of this was a self-reliant, religious duty—a “do-it-yourself” form of faith. The reality, as I later came to understand, is that I am not my own high priest—Jesus is. Hebrews 6:20 makes it clear: “Jesus has entered as a forerunner for us, having become a high priest forever, according to the order of Melchizedek.” Jesus is the mediator of the New Covenant, not me. I made no covenant with God—Jesus did.

Deeply ingrained religious mindsets

My deconstruction was revealing God’s grace and the finished work of Jesus, and that was challenging my old covenant thinking. My “do-it-yourself” religious mindset had trapped me and severely limited my ability to truly know God and my original, authentic self.

Now, that might sound really odd to you, and you may never have approached things in this way. I would certainly encourage you not to. However, it shows how deeply ingrained these mindsets can be, distorting our view of God and His work. Only when those limitations and restrictions were removed could I begin to discover my true origin, identity and destiny as a son of God. It was then I began to see how powerful the finished work of Jesus truly is.

Jesus accomplished everything on our behalf so we don’t need to rely on our own efforts. He died for me, and as me, so I died. He was resurrected for me, so I was resurrected. He ascended for me and I ascended. Jesus established the New Covenant for me and included me in it. He is my high priest, he is my mediator—I don’t have to do it myself. Jesus did everything necessary to restore the whole cosmos, reconciling everyone, corporately. We are not required to achieve this individually in our own strength. He has accomplished it on behalf of all mankind; he took away the sin of the entire cosmos.

Renewing the mind

We may need to transition into a renewed mindset because most of us have likely been programmed by some form of works-based mentality. Even if it wasn’t specifically religious works, cultural influences can drive us to succeed and build our identity around what we achieve. Transitioning from an old to a new mindset requires a deep deconstruction—a process of renewing the mind. it is a process, that is the key.

It’s a process that God orchestrates and that he leads us through. It is relational, and through this relationship, our thinking about God—and everything else—begins to change. Old restrictive doctrines and theological mindsets need to be replaced by a relational lifestyle of face-to-face innocence with God. This is the amazing truth of the relationship He has invited us into.

No need to fear deception

Through this, we can learn to trust our Father to father us without fear of deception. Personally, I struggled with a deep fear of “getting it wrong.” This fear was instilled in me through the belief that everything had to be done strictly “by the Bible,” as the Bible was my sole source of security against error and deception.

The reality, however, is that every Christian sect or cult uses the Bible in some way, so relying on it alone for safety didn’t truly protect me from deception. I believed the Bible was God’s Word: all of it was infallible, inspired, and entirely inerrant, and I thought that following it would keep me safe. But whose version was I following? Whose interpretation of the Bible was I basing my life on?

These questions were hard to face because I had been conditioned to think otherwise. In truth, that belief system itself was the deception that was keeping me religiously bound in fear, unable to move beyond the Bible. I was afraid that if I went beyond its pages, I’d fall into some weird error or be led astray. This is a fear shared by many people I have spoken to: their families and friends often worry that they are going off into some error or cult-like movement, because they are no longer going to church or no longer reading their Bible in the same way they once did.

But the fear of deception is itself a powerful form of deception that keeps us locked up. We don’t need to live in fear of deception, because we have the Holy Spirit of Truth within us, guiding us. Jesus, who is the Way, the Truth and the Life, is also in us and with us, discipling us. Our loving Father is within us, fathering us into our true identity as sons and daughters. And if we measure everything against agape love, we won’t stray far. Love is the ultimate standard, and if we root everything in love, we can trust the process.

Rest in Love (guided meditation)

Close your eyes,
Slow down your thinking,
Rest—rest in love.
As you are breathing in,
And breathing out,
The very breath of God.

And as you rest in love,
Let the unconditional love of God
Rest on you.

Open your heart,
Open your mind,
Ask the Father to reveal:
“Are there any Old Covenant mindsets,
Any Old Covenant belief systems,
Still operating?
Is there any mixture of covenants
In your heart?

Open up your heart to listen
That the Father could show you.
 
And if there is anything
That’s a mixture of covenants
In your experience
Just hand it over to him.
Take off those old covenant mindsets
And clothes, if you like,
And hand them over to the Father.

And let Him clothe you
In robes of righteousness,
Let Him clothe you
In new covenant grace,
In mercy,
In unconditional love.

403. So you think the ‘Word of God’ is the Bible? Think again!

Mike Parsons

The Bible, the Word of God?

I couldn’t move beyond, as long as I was restricted by my mindset and belief system, which was deeply rooted in evangelicalism. For years, I held the absurd notion that certain Bible verses referred to the Bible itself as the “Word of God.” But none of those verses mean the Bible, even though my deceptive sola scriptura programming led me to believe they did. I read the text and interpreted it in the way I had always been taught.

The Bible is a collection of writings, compiled over centuries, that wasn’t formally assembled until around AD 385. It couldn’t possibly refer to itself as the “Word of God” because it didn’t exist in its current form. Those who wrote its books had no idea they would one day be gathered into a single volume called The Holy Bible. That title was given by man—not by the Bible itself, and certainly not by God.

Misunderstood verses

Here are some examples of verses I misunderstood because of my conditioning:

Psalm 119:105: “Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.” I immediately assumed ‘word’ referred to the Bible.

Ephesians 5:26: “That He might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word.” Again, I thought ‘word’ meant the Bible—it doesn’t.

Ephesians 6:17: “Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.” I thought of the Bible as the ‘sword of the Spirit.’ But in reality, Jesus is the Word of God, and the words He speaks are the Word of God. This verse doesn’t refer to the Bible. My children even played a computer game where you would ‘draw your sword,’ which was portrayed as the Bible. You’d take it out from under your arm and use it as the ‘Sword of the Spirit.’ That just reinforced the idea that the Bible itself was the weapon, which was completely inaccurate.

1 Timothy 4:5: “For it is sanctified by means of the word of God and prayer.” To an evangelical, as soon as ‘word of God’ and ‘prayer’ are mentioned in the same sentence, it automatically means the Bible and prayer—because that’s what we were taught.

2 Timothy 2:15: “Be diligent to present yourself approved to God as a worker who does not need to be ashamed, accurately handling the word of truth.” Again, I was conditioned to interpret ‘word of truth’ as the Bible. In the King James Version, it even says ‘study to show thyself approved,’ which led to the belief that studying the Bible was what made you acceptable to God. But that’s not what it means at all.

We need to embrace a deeper understanding. Jesus said, “My sheep hear My voice, and they follow Me.” He didn’t say, “By reading the words in the Bible.” It’s about hearing His voice and following Him. Of course, some of the words Jesus spoke might speak to us today, but not all of them were meant for us. Many were directed to the people He was speaking to at the time.

Hebrews 4:12: “For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, penetrating as far as the division of soul and spirit.” I thought this meant I had to use the Bible to separate my soul and spirit. When I heard teachings about soul and spirit separation, I believed this was something I had to do. Thankfully, God had a completely different way. Jesus, as the living and active Word of God, was able to separate my soul and spirit and reintegrate me into wholeness.

2 Corinthians 3:18: “But we all, with unveiled faces, look as in a mirror at the glory of the Lord, and are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as from the Lord, the Spirit.” When I read this, I had no idea it meant I could look into God’s face and see Him directly—face to face—and be transformed by the image reflected back to me. I thought it meant looking into the Bible and trying to identify the image of God in it so I could imitate it. I was so caught up in this evangelical belief system.

Hebrews 6:5: “And have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come.” Again, I interpreted ‘word of God’ as the Bible. But I don’t see it that way now.

1 Peter 1:23: “You have been born again, not of seed which is perishable but imperishable, that is, through the living and enduring word of God.” Once more, I could only see this as referring to the Bible, rather than to Jesus—the living and enduring Word of God in me, bringing life.

1 John 2:14 says, “I have written to you, fathers, because you know Him who has been from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God remains in you, and you have overcome the evil one.”

When preaching on this, I would have said something like, “You need the Word of God! You need to feed on the Bible! You need to read it daily so that it’s in you, and then you’ll overcome the evil one and grow strong.” But the reality is that the ‘Word of God’ in this verse refers to Jesus, who is in us. He has already overcome the evil one, and we overcome through Him. At the time, I would have thought John’s letters—now included in the Bible—were the key to their strength. However, their strength came not from intellectual knowledge, but from their personal, experiential knowledge of Him.

Titus 2:5, which instructs women “to be sensible, pure, workers at home, kind, and subject to their own husbands, so that the word of God will not be dishonoured,” was another verse I misunderstood. I was taught this meant wives needed to submit to their husbands to avoid bringing dishonour to the Bible. But let’s set the record straight. This isn’t about women submitting to their husbands in some rigid hierarchy. Instead, it’s about being in a mutually respectful and loving relationship. It’s about mutual submission in the context of Christ’s example. The focus is on living in a way that honours God, not enforcing roles for the sake of protecting a book. Jesus is the Living Word of God, and He calls us into relationship with Him.

When we talk about the ‘Word of God,’ it’s essential to recognise that this primarily refers to Jesus, not the Bible. God’s words, whether spoken directly to us today or recorded in Scripture, can be meaningful. But the emphasis must remain on Jesus, the Living Word, who is still speaking and guiding us. He wants us to hear His voice and follow Him.

All God-breathed writings

Now, let’s address 2 Timothy 3:16, a verse often quoted in evangelical circles: “All Scripture is inspired by God and beneficial for teaching, for rebuke, for correction, for training in righteousness.” This verse is frequently used to argue that the entire Bible is inspired, infallible, and inerrant. However, there are several issues with how this verse is traditionally interpreted.

First, the word ‘all’ doesn’t mean everything indiscriminately. Second, the term ‘scripture’ is often mistranslated with a capital ‘S,’ implying it refers to the entire Bible. The original text doesn’t imply this. In fact, when this was written, the Bible as we know it didn’t even exist—it wouldn’t be compiled for another 300 years.

Let me read this verse from Young’s Literal Translation, which translates it as: “Every writing God-breathed is profitable for teaching, for conviction, for setting aright, for instruction that is in righteousness.” Notice the difference? It says every God-breathed writing is useful—not that every part of the Bible is God-breathed, nor that it refers specifically to the Bible at all.

This means that writings inspired by God—whether ancient or modern—are profitable and beneficial. God is still breathing inspiration into people today, and those writings can be just as useful for teaching, guidance and correction as any ancient text. This isn’t about elevating the Bible to an infallible status but recognising the broader scope of God’s inspiration.

God is still breathing inspiration into people today, and those writings can be just as useful for teaching, guidance and correction as any ancient text.

Unfortunately, I was conditioned to believe that this verse proved the Bible was infallible, inerrant and the ultimate authority. The evangelical mantra reinforced this: “The Bible is inerrant, infallible, and inspired.” But when you take a closer look, 2 Timothy 3:16 doesn’t say anything about the Bible being inerrant or infallible. It simply states that inspired writings—those breathed by God—are beneficial.

We must break free from the deception of assuming these verses mean something they don’t. God is still speaking today, and the Living Word—Jesus—continues to guide and transform us through His voice and presence.

Activation

So let’s take a few minutes to engage with God, with unconditional love.

Close your eyes,
begin to still your heart,
and still your mind.

Start to slow down your breathing.

Focus your thinking on God.
Focus your thinking on engaging unconditional love.

Breathe in deeply.
And as you breathe in,
you are breathing in
the unconditional love of the Father for you
as his child.

Wait in that place.
Be still.
Let the love of God,
that unconditional love,
rest on you.

Let Him reveal Himself
as pure, unconditional love.

Perhaps now,
you want to ask Jesus, as the Truth,
to speak something specific to you?

“You have heard it said,
But I say unto you.”
Maybe some belief system,
maybe the way you’ve looked at God,
maybe the way you have been programmed
with religious thinking, 
some mindset or belief system.

Open up your heart.
Ask Jesus, as the Truth,
the Living, Active Word of God,
to show you something
where is He saying,
“You’ve heard it said, you believe this
but I am saying unto you… this.”

Listen to His voice,
revealing something at this moment
that will bring truth to you.
Just let that frequency of his voice engage you.
