Introduction
Prelude from Dr. Kinley Textbook “Page 69 Volume I
“VISION OF MOSES AND THE APOSTLE JOHN IN COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OR APOSTLIC CONFIRMATION OF THE CREATION OF THE OLD AND OF THE NEW HEAVEN AND EARTH AS PERTAINING TO THE PURPOSE OF YAHWEH


“The only reason for writing this summary is because there are many World famous Theologians and Biblical Commentators who do not believe that the Mosaic Visions and Writings of the Pentateuch or the first five (5) books of the Bible have anything in particular to do with the Visions and the Book of Revelation, written by the Apostle John on the Isle of Patmos in the Aegean Sea. To entertain such an erroneous idea is to deny that “ALL Scripture is given by the inspiration of Yahweh, and is PROFITABLE for DOCTRINE, for REPROOF, for CORRECTION, for INSTRUCTION IN RIGHTEOUSNESS” (2 Timothy 3:16).


“In order to prove the fallacy of such a mistaken conclusion, we will begin this summary by “CORRELATING” the Experiences and Visions of Moses with the Experiences and Visions of the Apostle John, according to the Purpose of Yahweh, who is the ARCHETYPAL PATTERN OF THE UNIVERSE, reflecting Himself in the first three of these physical Patterns as recorded in the Pentateuch, namely: (a) Noah’s Ark, (b) the Exodus and Migration from Egypt through the Wilderness of Sinai to Canaan Land, (c) the Tabernacle erected by the Prophet Moses, and (d) the Temple in Jerusalem, recorded in I Kings 6:1, 38; II Chronicles 2:1-2; II Chronicles 3:1-2. According to the Purpose of Yahweh ALL Visions, Revelations, Prophecies and Experiences MUST follow the Yahweh-Elohim given Pattern of the Migration, Tabernacle and Temple.” …

(See chart on page 73)
“As in the beginning of Moses’ Vision of the Creation of the Heaven and Earth, by the Pattern of the Tabernacle, we also find a prophetic confirmation in the beginning of John’s Vision which he recorded in Revelation, for as we have already stated, the New Heaven and Earth are drawn out of the Old just as the New Testament is drawn out of the Old.


“Moses - 1 - In the beginning of Moses’ Vision of the creation of Heaven and Earth, the Earth was covered (or surrounded) with water. Moses heard the Spirit (wind) moving upon the face of the water. Moses in his Vision SAW and HEARD Elohim create, beginning with the first day through each day to the sixth inclusive from Beginning to Ending and then Elohim rested the Seventh Day or Sabbath.


“John - 1A - In the beginning of John’s Vision, he was on the Isle of Patmos which was surrounded with water, on the Sabbath Day and HEARD a great voice, as the sound of many waters behind him and he turned to see Him (Elohim in Super Incorporeal Form), that spake with him (as he described in Revelation 1:10-16), and being turned around he also SAW the angels with the seven seals, seven vials, seven trumpets, and HEARD the seven thunders utter their (Revelation 10:4) voices (as Moses had SEEN and HEARD in the Creation of the Old Heaven and Earth), but he was told not to write what the seven thunders uttered which represented the seven days of the Creation (because Moses had already HEARD, SEEN and WRITTEN IT, Genesis 1:1-31; Genesis 2:4), thus John was looking from the Ending back to the Beginning.”


Page 69 Volume I
“Here and now, we intend or aim to show the experiences of Moses down in Egypt and of the Visions and Experiences given to him in 1490 B.Y., and thereafter in the Wilderness of Sinai in CORRELATION to the Apostle John’s visions and experiences, during the 31/2 years from A.D. 30 to A.D. 331/2, while he was with Yahshua during the time of His earthly ministry, and to John’s visions given in A.D. 96 on the Isle of Patmos, which together, depict the summation of the whole matter. It is the Migratory Pattern, or the journey from Egypt through the Wilderness of Sinai to Canaan Land with Moses, Joshua and the Children of Israel that we mainly desire to refer in showing the infinite relationship of the experiences and visions of John.


Page 70 Volume I
“Moses — in Egypt had experienced the slaying and eating of the Paschal Lamb of the Passover, BEFORE he and the children of Israel passed through the Miraculously Divided Waters of the Red Sea and later arrived in the Wilderness of Sinai. It was here in the Cloud atop Mount Sinai that Moses SAW THE VISIONS of the Elohim of Israel, the Tabernacle and the Creation of Heaven and Earth, the Earth being surrounded by water. It was here in the Wilderness of Sinai in 1490 B.Y., that Moses wrote the Pentateuch, or the first five books of the Law which were to govern the Israelites throughout their generations in the Wilderness and in the LAND OF CANAAN.


“John — in Palestine had experienced and witnessed the complete Ministerial life of Yahshua, 63 years before he arrived on the Isle of Patmos in the Aegean Sea where he SAW THE VISIONS of Yahshua The Messiah, the Tabernacle and Creation of the New Heaven and Earth, which was drawn out of, or typified by the Old Heaven and Earth. It was here in the year A.D. 96, on the Isle of Patmos that John was to “bare record of the Word of Yahweh, and the Testimony of Yahshua The Messiah, and of all things that he saw” (Revelation 1:2). Here John was told to write what he SAW and HEARD in the Vision and Revelation and send it to the seven Assemblies which were in Asia.

Revelation 1st chap
"1 The Revelation of Yahshua the Messiah (Jesus Christ), which Elohim (God) gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John:"


An angel in priestly garments (see Rev. 1:13 below) came to John in a vision, in the midst of 7 branches golden candlesticks (similar to burning bush), as an angel came to Moses in a burning bush (Exo. 3rd Chapter).


Moses saw in a vision an angel in a bush that told him he had seen the affliction of Israel. 


He gave Moses a commission to go tell Pharaoh to let His Son go into wilderness to worship Yahweh (Exo. 3:7-10).
_____________________________________________


Revelation 1:2
"2 Who bare record of the word of Elohim (God), and of the testimony of Yahshua the Messiah (Jesus Christ), and of all things that he saw."


Moses bare record of what he saw in the mount during the 40 days & nights (Elohim’s super incorporeal form, the Archetypal Pattern, the days of creation, etc.). See Dr. Kinley’s text above in prelude, p. 4. Now the Law and Prophets were also the record of the Word and the testimony of Yahshua the Messiah of the things they saw in the spirit by the various prophets (John 5:39).


The Apostle Paul wrote this in Hebrew 1:1-2 1, Elohim (God), who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, 2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;


Another translation New KJV  1 Elohim (God), who at various times and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, 2 has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the worlds;
________________________________________
Revelation 1:3
"3 Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand."


Here John is being told that those that hear the words of “THIS prophecy” and keep these things are BLESSED.   The question you should ask is which prophecy is “THIS” referring to?  Is it the prophecy of the death, burial, resurrection of the Messiah referred to in Isa. 8:20 or is “THIS prophecy” another one revealed to John and no other prophet (after all the other disciples were dead)? See PLIM Notes on Rev. 13th, 17th- 18th Chapters below.


Rev. 12-14th Chap.

Rev. 17th Chapter

Rev. 17th Chapter, P. 2

Revelation 18:1-9 Chapter, P. 1

Revelation 18:10-24, P. 2


​This principle was revealed to Moses by the following verses.


Deut. 18:15,18 “15 The Yahweh thy Elohim (Lord thy God) will araise up unto thee a bProphet from the midst of thee, of thy brethren, like unto me; unto him ye shall hearken; ... 18 I will raise them up a aProphet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall cspeak unto them all that I shall command him.”


Deut. 28:1 “And if you faithfully obey the voice of Yahweh your Elohim, being careful to do all his commandments that I command you today, Yahweh your Elohim will set you high above all the nations of the earth.”
Examples:  Israel followed the Voice Yahweh in His prophet Moses by putting the blood on their door after killing a lamb or goat without spot of blemish.
Moses also told Israel to ask the Egyptians for their gold, silver, fine linen, etc. (Exo. 12:35) 
_______________


Revelation 1:4
"4 John to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace be unto you, and peace, from him which is, and which was, and which is to come; and from the seven Spirits which are before his throne;"


Here John addresses the seven churches or assemblies in Asia who are the spiritual light of Asia in Yahshua. These seven assemblies are correlated with the seven branched golden candlesticks in the Holy Place of the tabernacle which gave light to the Holy Place all night. 


John goes on to tell these 7 assemblies that the message is from Yahshua resurrected who is from the beginning of creation, the Alpha and Omega (See John 1:1, 14; Rev. 1:11). He was in the flesh or manifested in the body as Yahshua the Messiah, and is to come to fulfill John’s prophecy of the judgement of Mystery Babylon (Rev. 17-18 Chapter). Nobody understood this as far as the Apostles that another kingdom would come after their death. 


Now Yahshua is to come to fulfill the prophecy just as Joshua the Son on Nun fulfilled Abraham’s promise of Israel’s inheritance in Canaan Land (Josh. 24th chp.). Most Christians and IDMR members don’t understand the Messiah coming (often referred to as His second coming) is a repeat of what happened to Joshua son of Nun in Egypt as it was destroyed through 10 plagues by Moses and Aaron. Yahshua the Messiah fulfilled the Law and Prophets (Mt. 5:17-18) by bringing in eternal life and ending the bondage under the Law of Moses (Gal. 4:21-26).


Now the seven spirits before the throne of Elohim carry out His will through the seven ages and dispensations.

Revelation 1:5
"5 And from Yahshua the Messiah (Jesus Christ), who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,"


Here John adds clarification to Him who is, was and is to come, who is Yahshua the Messiah, the faithful witness, first begotten of the dead, who washed us in His blood (Exo. 13:2; Col. 1:18). He was the first born from the graves and out of Pure Spirit, the beginning of creation.
__________________________________________________


Revelation 1:6
"6 And hath made us kings and priests unto Elohim (God) and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen."


Yahshua made those resurrected souls kings and priests under the New Covenant as Moses made Israel a kingdom of priests and kings after receiving the law of Yahweh under the Old Covenant. "You shall be to me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation" (Ex. 19:6).


Judah was the kingship tribe (Genesis 49:10; Revelation 5:5) and Levite was the priesthood (Exodus 28:1–4).
_________________________________________________


Revelation 1:7
"7 Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen."


Lev. 16:2 “Yahweh (LORD) said unto Moses, Speak unto Aaron thy brother, that he come not at all times into the holy place within the vail before the mercy seat, which is upon the ark; that he die not: for I will appear in the cloud upon the mercy seat.” 
 
Ex. 19:9 “And Yahweh (the LORD) said unto Moses, Lo, I come unto thee in a thick cloud, that the people may hear when I speak with thee, and believe thee for ever.”


Many Christians think the rapture concept consists of us being caught up in clouds, which is erroneous.  They misinterpret what Paul writes in 1 Thess. 4:17 “17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.” This is another lecture which will be addressed later.

Revelation 1:8-9
"8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. 9 I John, who also am your brother, and companion in tribulation, and in the kingdom and patience of Yahshua the Messiah (Jesus Christ), was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of Elohim (God), and for the testimony of Yahshua the Messiah (Jesus Christ)."


See explanation under Rev. 1:4 above.

(See chart on page 73)
As in the beginning of Moses’ Vision of the Creation of the Heaven and Earth, by the Pattern of the Tabernacle, we also find a prophetic confirmation in the beginning of John’s Vision which he recorded in Revelation, for as we have already stated, the New Heaven and Earth are drawn out of the Old just as the New Testament is drawn out of the Old.”


“Moses – 1 – 
“In the beginning (of Moses’ vision) Elohim created the heavens and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And THE SPIRIT OF ELOHIM MOVED UPON THE FACE OF THE WATERS” (Genesis 1:1-2).


John – 1A –
“I, John, ...was in the Isle that is called Patmos, for the Word of Elohim, and for the testimony of Yahshua The Messiah. I WAS IN THE SPIRIT ON THE SABBATH DAY, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet, ...and His VOICE AS THE VOICE OF MANY WATERS” (Revelation 1:9-10, 15)”


Revelation 1:11
"11 Saying, I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last: and, What thou seest, write in a book, and send it unto the seven churches which are in Asia; unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamos, and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea."


See Dr. Kinley’s comments on these verses above and comments on Rev. 1:4.


Seven Assemblies

1. Ephesus, In Biblical Names the meaning of the name Ephesus is: Desirable. This is the only epistle written to an assembly in the Bible of the seven assemblies that the Apostle Paul wrote.
2. Smyrna,  From the noun מור (mor), myrrh, flowing, sweet, bitterness, Rebellion
3. Pergamos, Strongly United, Closely Knit, Tough Texture
4. Thyatira, Burning Intense, Head Long, Inspired
5. Sardis, Precious Stone,Sardonyx, Prince of Joy (this stone was in the High Priests (breast plate, see Rev. 21st Chapter)
6. Philadelphia, Brotherly Love, Love of Brothers or Sisters
7. Laodicea, Justice of the People, Judgment of the people

Revelation 1:12-16
"12 And I turned to see the voice that spake with me. And being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks; 13 And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle. 14 His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire; 15 And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters. 16 And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp twoedged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength."

The account which Moses together with Aaron, Nadab, Abihu and seventy elders saw, concerning the Elohim of Israel in Super Incorporeal (Anthropomorphic) Form, and the Tabernacle which Moses saw is compared to John’s Vision of Elohim, on the Isle of Patmos in A.D. 96. Elohim Himself, is the True Temple, which is His Super Incorporeal Body (Revelation 1:12-16), in whom we live, move, and have our being (Acts 17:28-29), for Yahweh is Spirit encompasses all, for He is ALL IN ALL (1 Corinthians 15:28).


Moses – 1
“Then went up Moses, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel; And they saw the Elohim of Israel: and there was under His feet as it were a paved work of sapphire stone, and as it were the BODY OF HEAVEN IN HIS CLEARNESS” (Exodus 24:9-10). “And look that thou make them (the Tabernacle and its furnishings) after their PATTERN, which was shewed thee in the mount” (Exodus 25:40).


John – 1A
“And I turned to see the voice that spake with me. And being turned I saw seven golden candlesticks; and in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of Man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle. His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire; And His feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and His voice as the sound of many waters. And He had in His right hand seven stars: and out of His mouth went a sharp twoedged sword: and His countenance was as the sun shineth in His strength” (Revelation 1:12-16).


Moses - 1 - Moses was shown in a Vision, the Elohim of Israel in Super Incorporeal Form, a Great Heavenly Anthropomorphic Being, as the three-fold Archetype (original) Pattern, transformed into the three-fold Intangible Tabernacle which he was admonished of Yahweh to build after the Pattern shown him in the Vision while in the Mount (Exodus 24:9-10; Exodus 25:40; Hebrews 8:5).


John - 1A - John in his Vision on the Isle of Patmos HEARD THE VOICE that spake with him and he turned and saw Elohim (who is, as we understand Him to be the RESURRECTED and GLORIFIED SANCTUARY or TEMPLE), in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks, clothed with a garment down to the feet and girt about the paps with a golden girdle, which was typified by the garments for Beauty and Glory, and the Ephod with twelve precious stones therein, worn by the High Priest, and the furnishings of the Tabernacle, and the golden, overlaid, covering of the Temple with its interior furnishings. His hairs were white like wool, which were symbolized by the Cloud that overshadowed the Tabernacle and the Cloud above the Mercy Seat of the Ark of the Covenant in the Most Holy Place. Out of his mouth went a sharp two-edged sword, which typified the powerful effect of ALL the spoken Words of Yahweh-Elohim, that expressed His Purpose from Beginning to the End, including the Words engraved in Tables of Stone, with the finger of Elohim and laid in the Ark of the Covenant; and the words written in the Heart and Mind by the Holy Spirit, under the New Covenant. His Countenance was as the Sun shineth in His strength, this was typified by the Temple elevated on Mount Moriah, in Jerusalem, overlaid with gold and decked with precious stones and the Sun Light shining thereupon, sending its dazzling rays until the BRIGHTNESS could not be looked upon with the naked eye. His eyes were as a flame of fire, typified by the Shechinah or Light that flashed in the Cloud between the wings of the Cherubims on the Ark of the Covenant, after the Atonement was made for Israel. His feet like unto fine brass typified by the Brazen Altar and Laver in the Outer Court. The Super Incorporeal Body of Elohim, in Yahweh is the True Sanctuary of Sanctuaries (Revelation 1:10-16).

Revelation 1:17-18
"17 And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last: 18 I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death."


See explanation of Alpha and Omega and Dr. Kinley’s comments on these verses on Rev. 1:4.


Moses was given the keys of hell and death by telling Israel to put the blood on the door posted of their houses to protect them from the death angel and the rod had divided the Red Sea.

Revelation 1:19
"19 Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter;"


This is a repeat of the Law that Moses was given. He was told to write it in a book.


“And it came to pass, when Moses had made an end of writing the words of this law in a book, until they were finished, Deut 31:24”

Revelation 1:20
"20 The mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks which thou sawest are the seven churches."


These seven stars also can represent the seven days of creation that Moses saw in a vision atop Mount Sinai and the seven steps in the tabernacle.]]>
