Spiritual Armor – Path Without End

The Mind Matrix / Helmet of Salvation

We all live in a “Matrix”, a “Mind Matrix” of our choosing, of our own construction.

The movie which made this word so famous, “The Matrix”, in which Morpheus comes to Neo offering him… TRUTH… REALITY… A CHOICE… A FORK IN THE ROAD… Escape from smoke and mirrors illusion… Virtual Reality, but not REAL!…the choice to continue living a LIE… a FALSE ILLUSION so real you could not tell it was not real… a FALSE REALITY you have been convinced is real… or to WAKE UP!… ENTER ENLIGHTENMENT… KNOW TRUTH…FACE REALITY…even though it may be HARD… but live to make a REAL DIFFERENCE!

I’ve been looking forward to this subject.

Welcome to this week’s “Fellowship of the White Path”.

As we just finished looking at the Belt of Truth in God’s Armor of Light, we will now move to the Helmet of Salvation, but how can we examine what protects our head and mind, without realizing we also continue the study of the Belt of Truth?

What is the MATRIX in “YOUR” head?

Anything less than the TRUTH is the beginning of our Fall! What we don’t know can hurt us! Even our innocent unintentional misconceptions can lead to failure! We should always be seeking more TRUTH, greater light, because only TRUTH sets us free!

BUT WHAT IS THE TRUTH YOU HAVE CHOSEN? THAT IS THE WORLD YOU ARE LIVING IN, WHETHER FALSE OR REAL. THAT WHICH YOU HAVE BEEN LED TO “BELIEVE” IS REAL.

There is so much to be considered and discussed on this subject. And what is the truth of it? For that is what we seek. We’re going to spend some time on the Helmet, because the Helmet is a MATRIX, the MIND of CHRIST. Every decision we make, every action we give birth to, has passed through that matrix, OUR MATRIX, before manifesting into the earth and creating, influencing the world we live in, the life we live. If you hate the life you live? Something has to change in that matrix of yours before anything else can get better.

OUR MATRIX IS SO REAL TO US! It may look, feel, taste real. The “Experts” may say this is what’s real. Everything may be shouting at us THIS IS REAL! THIS IS WHAT “I WANT” TO BE REAL! But unless it is also TRUE, then it’s NOT REAL.

Sometimes…for some people, it seems…it is so hard to know what is true, and what is real. A virtual reality is exactly that, because it seems so real! The more “truth-like” it is, the more powerful it is! We are convinced we know the truth. There is no need for change in “us”. Christians are just weak people who cannot face the fact we all die, so they create a “happy place” to go to. But the truth is, there is no God, no heaven, no hell, no life after death, everything is a dead end street. It’s that simple, and that is the “matrix” millions of people live in. It is so real to them! Life, a dead-end street!

I am not one of those people. That is not the matrix I believe. In my world, that matrix is a lie sending a lot of people to a very real hell! Because of my matrix, I am motivated to create such a blog site as this with the message of “AWAKEN”! LIGHT BE! My matrix causes me to walk in Priesthood!

My brain frame is very different from that of mortality. I have a Biblical Matrix in my head which I have spent many years constructing through much study and testing. You may have a Science Matrix. Actually, the two are not necessarily incompatible, not in my matrix, anyway.

But you may have a Worldly Matrix, or materialistic, money hungry, power hungry mind frame. There are a billion different mind frames, perspectives we can have. Every one of us a very unique individual, but in the midst of all this comes a great teacher, a teacher like none other, a teacher very hard to rationally explain his effect on history, and he boldly declares with no hint of doubt or apology that the TRUTH is what sets us free! Hhmmm. (Do we agree with him on this, but ignore many other things he said and did?) If so, you have a “glitch” in your programming.

HIS word challenges us to “be transformed by the renewing of our minds”! (Rom. 12:2) We are even given a list to “think on these things”. (Phil. 4:8) And to have the “Mind of Christ”! (Phil. 2:5-8) We are also told to be Born-Again. To intentionally choose God as our Father if we want connection to our Creator. Whaaat? Many laugh at all this like they laughed at Noah.

But if you’re a Believer of the Bible, then your perspective on everything begins changing. Your brain frame is changing. What you see yourself living is completely different than those who simply walk in flesh and blood. The “Holy Spirit Matrix of God’s revealed Truth” is a powerful mind frame transporting you out of mortality into Eternity. Transforming you from a thought process of flesh and blood to one of SPIRIT. We now live in a different Kingdom ruled by a different set of laws, and a very different freedom, a very REAL FREEDOM. Life in the Spirit!

BUT HAVE YOU BEEN TEACHABLE? AND WHO HAVE YOU CHOSEN AS YOUR TEACHERS? HOW EXPERT ARE THEY? HOW DO YOU JUDGE “EXPERT”? A PAPER HANGING ON THEIR WALL? HOW RICH OR SUCCESSFUL THEY SEEM TO BE? HOW GREAT IS THE LIGHT IN YOUR HEAD? HAS IT GIVEN YOU A PRIEST MATRIX, OR KING? (King is a false teaching, a mistranslation. Check it out.)

The Matrix (mind) of Christ is Priesthood. Anything less is a lesser light. Some of the teachers you have filled your head with are not as expert as you thought. Perhaps they have a Money Matrix? Perhaps they are led by pride, or power, or other teachers they thought were “all that”, and they want to be “all that” too. And to “that”… the TRUTH is that pride goes before a fall!

THE HELMET UPON OUR HEAD IS EVERYTHING! It’s not optional! It determines your spiritual success or failure!

This very real challenge has been called the “Battlefield of the Mind”. This is where it is determined what we really believe and who we really are, and if we’re really following Christ, or not. Jesus said many call him Lord, but do not what he says. He told those to “DEPART FROM HIM”. (Not words I want to hear.)

How about you? Even at this very moment your Mind Matrix is deciding how you feel about what I just said. And out of that you will decide if there are changes you need to make or not. You will decide if you like me or not. Possibly label me a quack. It all depends on YOUR reality. But is your reality REAL? Am I a quack? Or someone God wants you to listen to?

Just because your chosen matrix may put me in a “quack file”, does not mean I am. Only TRUTH determines all things. Only God will be the judge of that. I’m not concerned about YOUR TRUTH, only GOD’S TRUTH. And I function as a Priest of that truth, that light. So the more we have the Mind of Christ, the God Matrix; then the more we will be able to file things correctly and make wise and productive decisions we will not later regret. We will successfully walk the path without end, as Priest of Christ. Is this the reality that completely dominates everything else in your head? It should be. Seek ye first the Kingdom of God!

But if you examine your matrix and in all “honesty” decide there is a “truth gap” between what you claim with your mouth and what you actually live in your daily life, then here is your chance to WAKE UP before it is too late. I have much to say on this subject of the “Mind Matrix” and TRUTH. Let us put on the Helmet of Salvation, the Mind of Christ, the God Matrix! And know…each piece of this Armor are so inextricably connected…the Belt of Truth…the Boots of the Gospel…Breastplate of Righteousness…Shield of Faith…Sword of the Spirit…Prayer and Supplication… that the whole Armor are one…even as the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit…ARE ONE!

This message has been brought to you by “Fellowship of the White Path”.

Jesus walked the Red Path of his blood so we could walk the White Path of His supernaturally revealed TRUTH!

So says Grandpa White Feather.

bible-sword-of-the-spirit “…that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, ‘TO STAND’. Stand therefore,…” (Eph. 6: 13b-14a) (My emphasis added.)

“Therefore the ungodly ‘shall not stand’ in the day of judgement,…” (Psalms 1:5a) (My emphasis added.)

Your spiritual armor has everything to do with your ability to survive the great spiritual storm and be found still STANDING. Your Bible very specifically identifies an evil day in which there will be a great falling away before the antichrist is revealed. (2nd Thess. 2:3)

Your Bible declares as fact, not just God’s “opinion”, the ungodly, (the spiritually naked), shall not stand on judgement day. They are the “fallen”. The righteous in Christ, in his armor, may fall many times, but always gets back up and is found STANDING! You don’t want to be the “fallen” on judgement day. You want to be the “Gap Standers” as revealed in Ezekiel. (Last Sunday’s article.)

“Oh, the joys of those who do not follow the advice of the wicked, or stand around with sinners, or join in with mockers. But they delight in the law of the Lord, meditating on it day and night.” (Psalms 1:1-2)

It’s hard to pick a “most important piece” of the armor. THEY ARE ALL MOST IMPORTANT! But the other day I was surprised by something that occurred to me. The item I pictured as the least impressive, (the belt?), may be the most important! I mean, how can you compare a belt to a shield? Or sword? Or tough boots? A fancy breastplate, or helmet? In my mind, the visual picture of a “belt”, although still very important, but definitely not the first thing I picture when thinking about being “impressed”!

AND YET…I was struck by the question…what is my deadly enemy’s strongest weapon? Without it, he becomes irrelevant! But with it, we have watched everything from the fall of Adam and Eve, to the crucifixion of Christ! God himself nailed to a cross by man!

Satan is the master Deceiver.

All of a sudden I had to take a stronger look at “The Belt of Truth”, also the first item listed in the scriptures! When Jesus said, “The truth will set you free,” he was speaking of that Belt! Anything less than the truth is the beginning of our fall!

Just think about it for a moment. False information leads us to make our decisions based on assumptions that will not STAND! Have you ever made an investment based on the advice of someone, or some information, convincing you this is a great investment, only to lose your shirt? Have you ever done anything you later regretted because something, or someone, convinced you at the time, it was a smart thing to do? Most of the time we choose our forks in the road based on what we believe to be TRUE! So what happens when we discover “our truth” was really a false reality, a lie?

We usually suffer loss. The trap has sprung and we are in it! We experience defeat, pain, sorrow, consequences, REALITY, depression, poverty, and TRUTH! But now it is too late. The damage is already done. The truth could have spared us all the pain and loss. Maybe if we had known the truth, maybe we would have chosen the other fork in the road? At least we could have made a decision fully knowing the risk we were taking.

Sometimes we make choices based on a love for money, lust, pride, the “7 Deadly Sins”, even though we know the truth. We know we will suffer for the decision later. That’s another kind of stupidity not really the focus of this lesson. When we’re in our right mind and using wisdom, we try to make good decisions based on what we believe to be true.

When it comes to our spiritual armor, and our enemy’s strongest tactics, the truth is everything! If you don’t fully know what those “Boots of the Gospel of Peace” do for you, the fact you now have “Peace with God”, then the devil can come along and begin his lies! Such as, “Boy you really blew it this time! You’ve sinned one too many times, buddy! God is now your enemy!”

If you can be convinced you no longer have a “Peace Treaty” with God through the blood of Christ, then you will be too broken to repent again, ask for forgiveness again, fight the enemy again, rise to your feet again, and you will begin to just give up, embrace the sin, and the enemy now has you in his territory, the land in which he is strong, the land of his lies!

Anything less than the truth is the beginning of our fall! (Such as “What would Jesus do? And what did Jesus do? Why the disconnect? Last article.)

He has managed to move us away from “what is true”. And now all the rest of the armor begins falling apart. Your shield of faith is wilting, you won’t even pick up your sword because you’re lost in guilt, your brain is doubting salvation, your heart is falling into darkness, every piece of that armor is crumbling because of the lies of the enemy! The whole time your armor is shouting to you the truth! But you’re no longer even bothering to charge your armor. Your light’s going out!

How precious is the truth in a world of lies? What dollar value could be put to it? And you; us? We are called to be God’s Warriors of Truth! What a worthy battle to fight! What an honor!

When I was driving back from the Black Hills of South Dakota, with a phrase echoing in my mind, “Path of the White Feather”, at that time I had no idea what it all meant. Since coming back, that phrase has led to this blog site and “Fellowship of the White Path”. The White Path is all about knowing as much TRUTH as possible. What does greater light have to fear from lesser light? Not a thing. We keep an open mind and consider all things.

Jesus walked the Red Path of his blood, so we could walk the White Path of his TRUTH. The truth is, our current spiritual job assignment is to be a Kingdom of Priest to this lost world. I hope that doesn’t get in the way of your false reality of living like a king right now. That “lesser light” will cost you big in the long run. The day will come when you regret living as a king, rather than God’s servant. Beware of the forked tongue. Please check everything Grandpa White Feather teaches against God’s holy Word of truth, our Sword of the Spirit!

In those days, that Belt was also used to “gird up” the long robe so it did not still hang around their ankles. That Belt was a sign of coming “challenge”, and you being ready to fight! To gird up your loins was something they tried to do before the enemy actually attacked. We would be wise to do the same!

Wearing the Belt of Truth, do not be afraid to pick up that sacred Sword, and expose Satan in the light of your Armor! Praise God forever! Stay charged, people of God! Godwalkers every one! An Enoch people walking with their Lord in white! Ready to be suddenly taken by God!
