I just saw a sign #2 What the sign means.

      I believe I have the mind of the Spirit.   Skip the last post and see the sign was a rainbow the day before pass over.  There  the showing of it we have  it meant the same thing, the everlasting covenant. In Ezekiel 37:26 we have the full statement that is not broken up within a scripture verse.  It is really a everlasting covenant of (peace).   That means the (bow and the ) and( pass over )   must include the word peace.  

     In Eph. 2:17  We have a unique change in our thinking. we always hear preach the gospel. Here we have preach peace.  In Acts 2:39 we see what was here in Eph. 2:17.  look for the words afar off.  That would be the including of all gentiles.  If the covenant is everlasting then it never has ceased. 

     The word in Greek is the same word in Hebrew.  Greek 1515 eirene and Hebrew shalom h7965   Only by the Holy Spirit can this peace be applied.  The Holy Spirit in Jesus brought this peace into people. Now people can receive it or impart it to others.  We are not just talking about the peace of quietness only.  The peace (shalom ) means  welfare , health,prosperity, covenant with God, rest, safety, and so much more. 

     In Isaiah 57:19  Notice the Prophet says peace, peace two times.  Also we have again to them afar off Eph. 2:17.  Also remember mention of the word everlasting.  Never ending peace. Showing that peace refers to the baptism of the Holy Spirit.  For all to receive.  

Isaiah is showing the steps to revival.  Isa. 57:14-21  God was angry at the chosen people who were being covetous-lovers of gain and stubborn to answer his calling them to himself. He would make them see his wrath and hide himself from them ( not hear his voice included)  Then they would call on him in repentance , get rid of lukewarmness,  complacency, errors about his word, even rid of heresy.  in v.16 he will not contend forever (judge) but heal and restore them and renew his covenant of Peace. 

     Anyone that resists God's call to holiness, will either be brought back by God's sovereign hand or left to their own stubbornness  and no blessings. Anyone who preaches for gain only,  would be breaking God's law of love thy neighbor as thyself and love God with all your heart.  God's mighty hand to save his people is so they will rapture when he comes as the great Shepherd of the sheep.

     Isa. 26:3  God offers perfect peace to those who have him on their mind continually. No room for dark things in the mind full of light.
