In this post I have endevoured to pull all text and quotes that refer to the subject of the LORD God, LORD, Lord, and lords from the book, The Many Waters.
Note: I realize much of this is missing the context and discussion by the author, and I suggest that if this interests you, the PDF edition or the Kindle edition is available.
LORD God and the LORD
Have you not known? Have you not heard, that the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, faints not, neither is weary?
Isaiah 40:28
You shall not add to the word which I command you, neither shall you diminish anything from it, that you may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you.
Deuteronomy 4:2
Who the patriarchs of those ancient times saw, heard and spoke to was the LORD God and the LORD. They had contact with the LORD God or the LORD via dreams, visions, meditation and prayer, and sometimes through mediums and oracles.
In the Old Testament, there are Gods, gods, LORDS, Lords, and, oh yes, lords, and to make it more confusing the Old Testament sometimes refers to a LORD and a Lord in the same sentence. A Lord in the Old Testament is a man of this planet, and a LORD is from heaven or the heavens.
The New Testament does not use LORD (all uppercase); it is always written as Lord and it mostly refers to Jesus.
Before translations took place, the writers of the original Torah (Old Testament) texts made it very clear as to which Lord they were referring, but the syntax in every language is different and confusing, and the translators may have resorted to uppercase letters instead of names. This is one reason why some biblical texts have been misunderstood.
If we are to interpret the Bible correctly, we must recognize that God, the Supreme Being, the Creator, the Almighty, is above all titles and there are still verses that point out, quite clearly, that God is not a LORD or a Lord.
The mighty God, even the LORD, has spoken….
Psalms 50:1
Thus says the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker….
Isaiah 45:11
…the LORD the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of hosts….
Isaiah 44:6
Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised in the city of our God, in the mountain of his holiness.
Psalms 48:1
LORD of God
The Hebrew tribes had a LORD God (a LORD of God) who looked after them and who guided them personally. His name was Jehovah. Jehovah was not just another name for God as is believed by biblical scholars. He was the LORD of this planet for the first Homo sapiens, and later for the Israelites, the ancestors of Jesus.
Old Testament ‘Lord’
In the Old Testament, Lord (with only the L uppercase) was a man of this planet and not a LORD of heaven. His temple was an earthly building and the seraphim stood above his throne. They called one to another and praised the LORD of hosts (the one in heaven).
LORD From the Sky
Any mysterious phenomenon that they happened to see in the sky or on land was attributed to “the glory of God,” the “LORD God” or his angels.
As we know from the Old Testament, a LORD was from heaven, but the scribes did not distinguish between a LORD from heaven and a LORD from “the heavens,” who would have been someone from another planet.
In the Old Testament, only Lords were from our world. Because the Old Testament uses all uppercase letters for a LORD from heaven and a LORD from the heavens, we can only differentiate the two by the content of the passage.
Ezekiel’s Vision: or Actual Event?
Ezekiel thought that he had seen a vision, but it may have been an actual event. He would assume it to be a vision because he knew that there was no such living creature, and it would have to be symbolic. He was a priest and he knew that the LORD God of heaven was a spirit and did not just pop in on mere mortals. It was all too preposterous to be real.
These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens.
And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew: for the LORD God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground.
But there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground.
Genesis 2:4-6
I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, says the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.
Revelation 1:8
Understanding Heavenly Entities
These heavenly entities are the LORDS (New Testament—Lords), the archangels, and their angelic hosts of helpers, angels, and seraphim. They were created for one purpose only and that is to serve the Light that is God, who has no shape or form, and cannot be seen or heard.
The LORDS are the embodiment of God in the third heaven. They were created and ordained to be intermediaries between God and humankind and they have the power and authority to speak and act in the name of God.
The Hebrew tribes had a LORD God (a LORD of God) who looked after them and who guided them personally. His name was Jehovah.
The archangels and their hosts of angels are the messengers and helpers of the LORDS of God.
According to the Bible, the Son of God was the first being and is the highest entity in heaven.
He was, and is, the Son (uppercase S). He is the LORD of all LORDS and of all the hosts of heaven and is the highest being next to God. His name is Jesus.
The Son of God, the Lord of Lords, was also called the Son of man. This means that not only is he the highest being next to God the Energy and the Light, but he was also given the properties of humankind.
Rabbi Solomon ben Isaac, also known as Rashi, born in 1040, was a prominent commentator of the Talmud. In one of his writings he explained the phrase in Deuteronomy:
“Hear, O Israel, The LORD our God, the Lord is One.”
This means that the LORD of Israel would one day not just be the God of the Jews, but would be the ONE SOLE GOD of the world, as it is written in Zechariah 14:9:
“In that day shall the Lord our God be One and His name One.3
3 Harry Gersh, The Sacred Books of the Jews (New York: Stein and Day Publishers, 1968), pp. 159-160.”
He was referring to the Saviour and Redeemer that the Jewish nation has been waiting for. That would be the LORD of LORDS, the “only begotten Son of God,” JESUS, whom they do not accept or recognize.
The 6th and 7th Books of Moses4 are manuscripts, supposedly written by Moses that were not included in the canon because they were considered witchcraft by the early churches.
These writings make it quite clear to the reader that Lord and God are not the same entity, and it names the Lords and archangels who are appointed to look after this world.
Some of these names can also be found in the Bible, but scholars have mistaken them for the names of God. The names of some of the Lords are Adonai, Sother, Emmanuel, Ehie, Tetragramaton, Atscher, Jehovah, and Sabaoth—the Good, also known as the Lord of light. A host of Lords was known as the Elohem. Jehovah was the Lord of the Israelites during their exile from Egypt, and was even mentioned in the creation story as the Lord who instigated the creation of Adam and Eve.
4 The Complete Edition of the 6th and 7th Books of Moses, Published for the trade: USA. “For the good of mankind.” Translated from the Ancient Hebrew
The Son of God is the highest, then the LORDS (Lords), and then the archangels and their hosts of angels. The books of Moses also mention helpers and servants along with the seraphim.
In the year that king Uzziah died I also saw the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple. Above it stood the seraphims: each one had six wings; with two he covered his face, and with two he covered his feet, and with two he did fly. And one called to another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory…Then flew one of the seraphims unto me, having a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar….
Isaiah 6:1-6
In Exodus 25:19-22, the LORD gives Moses instructions on making a sanctuary and a place for the safekeeping of the testimony that he will give them. To be included with the elaborate details on the building process were the cherubims.
Unlike most accounts in the Bible where the patriarchs and prophets spoke to the LORD via dreams and visions, this was no dream or vision. Moses was given specific instructions and told exactly where, and how, to install a communication system so that the LORD could communicate with them. When it was all completed according to the plan “Moses…heard the voice of one speaking to him from off the mercy seat that was upon the ark of testimony, from between the two cherubims: and he spoke to him.” (Numbers 7:89)
Jesus, the Son of God, the Lord of Lords, was of the host of heaven and was an invisible before he entered this planet to teach us the true and natural way to live as sons of God rather than sons of men.
In Proverbs 8:22-27, Wisdom personified as female said:
The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old. I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was. While as yet he had not made the earth…nor the highest part of the dust of the world. When he prepared the heavens, I was there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depth….
I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, says the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.
Revelation 1:8
The Creation of the Cosmos
The LORD also thundered in the heavens, and the Highest gave his voice; hail stones and coals of fire…he sent out his arrows, and scattered them; and he shot out lightnings and discomfited them. Then the channels of waters were seen, and the foundations of the world were discovered….
Psalms 18:13-15
Wisdom: The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old. I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was…While as yet he had not made the earth…nor the highest part of the dust of the world…I was daily his delight…Rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth; and my delights were with the sons of men.
Proverbs 8:22-31
Jesus tells his initiates of the dissolution of the universe after its expansion is completed “in the years of the light.” Mary Magdalene asks him:
“My Lord, how many years of the years of the world is a year of the light?”
Jesus answered:
“A day of the light is a thousand years in the world, so that thirty-six myriads of years and a half myriad of years of the world are a single year of the light.”5
5 G.R.S. Mead, Pistis Sophia (New Jersey: University Books Inc., 1974), p. 203.
The Second Day
The Firmament
Thus says God the LORD, he that created the heavens, and stretched them out; he that spread forth the earth, and that which comes out of it; he that gives breath to the people upon it, and spirit to them that walk therein:
Isaiah 42:5
THE THIRD DAY
An expanding cosmos...
By the word of the LORD were the heavens made…He gathers the waters of the sea together as a heap: he lays up the depth in storehouses.
Psalms 33:6-7
He causes the grass to grow for the cattle, and herb for the service of man: that he may bring forth food out of the earth; and wine that makes glad the heart of man, and oil to make his face shine, and bread which strengthens man’s heart. The trees of the LORD are full of sap; the cedars of Lebanon…where the birds make their nests….
Psalms 104:14-17
THE FOURTH DAY
We are Stardust
He appointed the moon for seasons: the sun knows his going down. You make darkness, and it is night: wherein all the beasts of the forest do creep forth. The young lions roar after their prey, and seek their meat from God. The sun rises, they gather themselves together, and lay them down in their dens. Man goes forth to his work and to his labour until evening. O LORD, how manifold are your works! In wisdom have you made them all: the earth is full of your riches.
Psalms104:19-24
The Birth of the Cosmos (heavens)
You have increased the nation, O LORD…you have removed it far unto all the ends of the earth.
Isaiah 26:15
THE FIFTH DAY
The Evolution of Life in the Water
The LORD looks from heaven; and beholds all the sons of men. From the place of his habitation he looks upon all the inhabitants of the earth. He fashioned their hearts alike; he considers all their works.
Psalms 33:13-15
