Dearest Stiffy... may you have peace.
Please know that my Father, and therefore, my Lord, are not concerned with a man's outward appearance. It is what exists INSIDE a man that is of importance. JAH does not examine the outward appearance of a man... but examines, instead, his heart... his MOTIVE and INTENT, his REASONINGS and RATIONALIZATIONS.
A beard will not make a man righteous... or unrighteous. It is the outside of the cup, merely the exterior of the 'vessel' that holds INSIDE it the TRUE man... the spirit. A beard is merely an adornment of the flesh. In turn, the flesh, which is of no use at all... is merely a 'curtain'... that hides the SPIRIT... which is the 'man' that JAH and Christ sees... and which is the 'man'... that Satan wishes to deliver up to Death and Destruction. It is the flesh, then, that separates us from God.
But... it does not HAVE to be that way. We can, by means of holy spirit... transcend the flesh... and through Christ, the 'door', enter into the spirit realm.
My Lord is 'invisible', Stiffy... in that he is not visible to the physical eye. But he is quite visible to those who, through holy spirit, can see things 'spiritual'... with the 'spiritual' eye. And no, I am not the only one who can hear him; indeed, there are many. It appears, however, that I am among the most 'vocal' about it, for whatever reason. Fear of man seems to be the primary reason many put faith in him... but do not confess him. But that is how it has always been: people seek glory from people... and not from God. They are SO afraid of being thought 'mad' by 'earthling' man. But in truth, what true servant of God was NOT thought mad? People just seem to want things to be different than they really are going to be.
TR - what I think of YK is entirely irrelevant. If you wish to know my Lord's position, I beg you... ask him.
I bid you all peace,
A slave of Christ,
SJ
