The Number Five (V)

The number 5 symbolizes God’s grace towards human beings. In the New Testament, there are five offices that are available to the Church for the perfecting of the saints [Ephesians 4:11-13]. These offices are often likened to human hand. Whereas the thumb represents the office of the Apostle, which is separated from the other four fingers. Notably, the LORD only acknowledges 12 apostles [Revelation 21:14], wherein Judas Iscariot was replaced by Paul, who wrote most of the epistles. The work of these 12 apostles remain with us today in the New Testament, which remains alive or quick [Hebrews 4:12]. The index finger is associated with the office of the Prophet as they point the direction in which believers and the Church should go. The office of the Evangelist is the middle finger, as it has the longest reach and is associated with reaching lost souls for the LORD. The wedding ring finger is associated with the Pastor, who takes care of the sheep, protects them, and ushers them into covenant relationship with the LORD. The smallest finger is associated with the Teacher, who is able to go into the smallest areas and remove unwanted material from the Body of Christ.

Further, the name John is the English form of Iohannes, the Latin form of the Greek name Ἰωάννης (Ioannes), itself derived from the Hebrew name יוֹחָנָן (Yoḥanan). It means “Yahweh is gracious”, from the roots יוֹ (yo) referring to the Hebrew God and חָנַן (ḥanan) meaning “to be gracious”. The Hebrew form occurs in the Old Testament (spelled Johanan or Jehohanan in the English version), but this name owes its popularity to two New Testament characters, both highly revered believers. The first is John the Baptist, a Jewish ascetic who is considered the forerunner of Jesus. He baptized Jesus and was later executed by Herod Antipas. The second is the Apostle John, who is traditionally regarded as the author of the fourth gospel and Revelation. With the Apostles Peter and James (John’s brother), he was part of the inner circle of Jesus. Interestingly enough, the Apostle John wrote five books in the New Testament revealing the Grace of God. These are the Gospel of John, his 3 epistles (1 John, 2 John and 3 John), and the Book of Revelation. The Apostle John was the only apostle that was not martyred, although there was an attempt made by casting him into a cauldron of boiling oil, from which he emerged unharmed.

In the Old Testament, the LORD began to reveal himself to man through the five books that were given to Moses. Collectively these five books are known are the Pentateuch (“Penta” means five), and are Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy. ) Learn more on the number five.

Design

The curriculum of the 5 Books of Max mirrors the overall design of the New Testament. In that it begins with a “Gospel”, that is the Gospel of Perfection. In the New Testament there are four Gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. These four Gospels each focus on a different dimension of the life and ministry of our Lord Jesus Christ. These dimensions are reflected in the faces of the four living creatures [Revelation 4:7]. The first creature had the face of a lion, this denotes kingship, the Gospel of Matthew shows the dimension of Jesus the King [Matthew 2:2/Matthew 27:37]. The second creature had the face of a calf, this denotes servant-hood, the Gospel of Mark shows the dimension of Jesus the Servant [Mark 10:43-45]. The third creature had the face of a man, this denotes Jesus as the Son of Man, which is the main theme of the Gospel of Luke [Luke 5:24/Luke 6:5]. Lastly, the fourth creature had the face of an eagle, this denotes divinity and the Gospel of John reflects Jesus as the Son of God [John 1:1/John 3:16]. Therefore, in this first book, there is an emphasis on the number four. Strangely enough, the fourth book in the Old Testament is called Numbers.

After the Gospels comes the Acts of the Apostles, and therefore, the second book is Acts of the Two Witnesses. Acts of the Apostles and the Gospel of Luke is a two-part work of Luke the Evangelist, and it continues where his Gospel concludes. The early chapters outline the ascension of Jesus into Heaven, and subsequently the coming of the Holy Spirit on the Day of Pentecost. He was a medical doctor who travelled with Paul the Apostle. It outlines the development of the early Christian church, and its spread into the Roman Empire as the message was rejected by the Jews.

Acts of the Two Witnesses is based on Revelation 11, it serves to dispel the confusion as to their identity. Further, it outlines all their messages. Most still believe that they are still to come on the scene and deliver a 1,260-day message and then be slain by the beast. However, what was discovered is that they have a total of 12 messages. Book 2 chronicles and fully explains all their 13 messages, which provides a proper scheduling of End-Time events. Knowledge of the Two Witnesses is therefore fundamental in understanding the times that we are now living in. Book 2 systematically unravels the great mystery of the Two Witnesses.

After Acts of the Apostles, there are 21 Epistles, 14 were written by the Apostle Paul, with the other seven written as follows: 1 by James, 2 by Peter, 3 by John and 1 by Jude. Epistles are only found in the New Testament. They were letters sent by Paul, the inner circle apostles (Peter, James and John) and Jude, who was James’ brother [Jude 1:1]. This may have occurred as James was the first apostle to be martyred [Acts 12:1-2].

In light of the numerous epistles contained in the New Testament, with the Apostle Paul writing twice as many as the other writers combined, contained in the 5 Books of Max are 2 Epistles. The New Testament epistles were distinctive letters send by authoritative figures in the early Church. They were instructional in nature, with the tone being one of teacher to student. Some were written to churches in specific cities, while others were to the universal church. However, they all contained authoritative directives designed to help believers in their Christian walk, and to attain to holy Christ-modelled living.

The first epistle called the Epistle of Defragmentation is symbolic of the 14 epistles written by the Apostle Paul which were written to Christians at different cities where he had previously ministered the Word of God and established churches. Book 3’s main emphasis is the elimination of the numerous fragments within the Body of Christ. The main scripture governing this epistle is found in Ephesians 4:13:

13 Till we all come in the unity of faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ:

As true believers in Christ get ready for our Lord’s return, an important key is the unity and unfeigned love demonstrated amongst the Christians:

John 13:35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.

Timing

While the first 3 books have been released, the fourth book, which is the second epistle called the Epistle of Matter Waves, is on hold until a critical mass of unified Christians has been reached. This second epistle is representative of the 7 epistles that were written by James, Peter, John and Jude, which were general epistles to the entire Body of Christ. This book explains the inner workings of the final and greatest outpouring of the Holy Spirit. However, there is a precursor to this outpouring: UNITY.

Acts 2:1

And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.

For the first outpouring of the Holy Spirit, also known as the former rain, there were 120 persons present [Acts 1:15]. For the latter rain of the Holy Spirit (a double portion – 2 Kings 2:9), the number of persons involved will be multiplied exponentially: 1,200 x 120 = 144,000. Notably, Elijah was taken into heaven supernaturally without seeing a physical death [2 Kings 2:11], subsequently Elisha would die a natural death [2 Kings 13:20]. In these last days, the transitioning into heaven will be reversed. In that, following the first outpouring of the Holy Spirit, all the apostles and disciples passed away naturally (like Elisha). However, those with a double portion of the anointing of the Holy Spirit, will not pass away naturally, the 144,000 and the other perfected believers [Genesis 5:24], will be translated directly into heaven (like Elijah).

Revelation 7:1-4

And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor the sea, nor on any tree. 2 And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God: and he cried in a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea, 3 Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads. 4 And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel.

The 10X multiplier effect was first seen when our Lord explained the full extent of forgiveness:

Matthew 18:22 Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven.

The last and greatest outpouring of the Holy Spirit’s upon men, called Matter Waves, will cause the manifestation of the strongest group of Christians by far to ever walk the earth [Habakkuk 2:14]. This is only for the persons that will fully align themselves with the perfect will of God. They will then be sealed and anointed to bear witness that Jesus is LORD and that His return is now very soon.

Joel 2:1-2

Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound the alarm in my holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of the Lord cometh, for it is nigh at hand; 2 A day of darkness and of gloominess, a day of clouds and of thick darkness, as the morning spread upon mountains: a great people and a strong; there hath not been ever the like, neither shall be any more after it, even to the years of many generations.

What the Church has struggled with to accomplish for decades, yea even centuries, this highly double-annointed team of 144,000 will finish the evangelical work in short order [Romans 9:28].

Matthew 24:14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.

Following the second set of epistles in the New Testament, comes the Revelation to John, also known as The Apocalypse, which is undoubtedly the most misunderstood and misinterpreted book in the history of all mankind as it contains numerous secrets and mysteries from God.

Hebrews 5:14

14 But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.

The Finale  

Just as the New Testament concludes with the Revelation to John, the 5 Books of Max will conclude with Revelation: Full Disclosure. This book will be released last, as the army of 144,000 Christians are proceeding with their efforts to reach the entire earth. Its release will provide vital and strategic information to motivate and empower them even more as the final push to Victory is made. Moreover, it will also signal the very eminent occurrence of the Rapture, during the blowing of the seventh trumpet.

Revelation 10:7

7 But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.

The voice of the seventh angel is also related to the last trump:

1 Corinthians 15:51-53

51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall be changed. 52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. 53 For this corruption must put on incorruption and this mortal must put on immortality.
