Yeshua, whom you made Messiah, to do what your power and plan had already deter-
mined beforehand should happen.

Revelation 4:10 -- 5:7: The 24 older persons fell down before the one seated on the throne and
worshipped the one that lives forever and ever, and they cast their crowns before the throne, say-
ing: "You are worthy, JEHOVAH [YEHOVAH], even our God to receive the glory and the honor
and the power, because you created all things, and because of your will they existed and were cre-
ated." And I saw in the right hand of the one seated upon the throne a scroll written within and on
the reverse side, sealed tight with seven seals. And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud
voice: "Who is worthy to open the scroll and loosen its seals?"

"But one of the older persons says to me: 'Stop weeping. Look! The Lion that is of the tribe
of Judah [Christ], the root of David, has conquered so as to open the scroll and its seven seals.'
And I saw standing in the midst of the throne and of the four living creatures and in the midst of the
older persons a LAMB [CHRIST] as though it had been slaughtered, having seven horns and seven
eyes, which [eyes] mean the seven spirits of God that have been sent forth into the whole earth.
And he went and at once took [it] out of the right hand of THE ONE SEATED ON THE THRONE
[YEHOVAH, YHVH]" (verses 4:10-5:2).

Here, again, we PLAINLY SEE that Christ and YEHOVAH (YHVH) are TWO SEPA-
RATE ENTITIES. In other words, the Christ of the New Testament is NOT the same as the YE-
HOVAH of the Old Testament -- regardless of what the Churches of God and Bill Dankenbring
say!

To conclude, let's turn to Revelation 21:22:

And I did not see a temple in it [Jerusalem], for JEHOVAH GOD [YEHOVAH GOD,
YHVH] the Almighty is its temple, also the LAMB [CHRIST [is]. And the city has no
need of the sun nor of the moon to shine upon it, for the GLORY OF GOD lighted it up,
and its lamp was the LAMB" (The Kingdom Interlinear Translation of the Greek
Scriptures).

These same verses are rendered, by the Jewish New Testament, in the following fashion:

I saw no temple in the city, for ADONAI [YEHOVAH], God of heaven's armies, is its
Temple, as is the LAMB [CHRIST]. The city has no need for the sun or the moon to
shine on it, because GOD'S SH'KHINAH gives it light, and its lamp is the LAMB.

In all of these verses -- and I could multiply them many times over -- it is absolutely crystal
clear that God the Father, the one called YEHOVAH in the Old Testament -- the God of Abraham,
Isaac and Jacob -- appoints, chooses, anoints, and exalts HIS SERVANT YESHUA OR CHRIST.

The Glory of God

In the above passage from Revelation 21:22, the phrase "glory of God" in The Kingdom
Interlinear Translation of the Greek Scriptures is rendered "God's SH'KHINAH" in the Jewish
