BRIDAL WRESTLING — 2ND MESSAGE.....(SUN PM 6/1/97)

We cannot go through the Door to the spiritual Marriage Chamber with our Big “I” of Idolatry. The Big “I” must be nailed to the Cross. We fight against fallen Lucifer’s full stature in four main dispensations. In the first level of warfare, Satan fights against us through Principalities. In the second dispensation of warfare, the Devil exhibits the Powers of Lucifer’s nature. In the third dispensation, the Serpent is over the Rulers of Darkness of this World. And, in the last dispensation of spiritual warfare, the Dragon wars against us through his Spiritual Wickedness in High Places.

Although it is Satan who primarily stands against us on the first level of warfare, we also have to confront the Devil, the Serpent, and the Dragon. And, the same Principle applies on each successive level of warfare, so that we must face and overcome against increasingly stronger warfare from Lucifer’s full stature.

In the middle of this message is an explanation of where the name Easter originated and why the celebration of Jesus’ Resurrection from the dead should simply be called “The Resurrection.”
