33 🧐
The savour was resurrected at the age of 33.
John 1:33 Says in the “Authorized” (King James) Version
33 And I knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, the same is he which baptizeth with the Holy Ghost.
John 17:5
Authorized (King James) Version
5 And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was.
Genesis 1:2
Authorized (King James) Version
2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
The light enter the darkness and the darkness know it not, at this time because Jesus is the Word come flesh. To bring the wisdom of the Father who art in Heaven.
33 It is an interesting number, used by secret societies to blasphemy the work of Holy Spirit.
Who told John about the Baptist and what to do, and who to wait for? Only The Holy Spirit
Also, the Holy Spirit thought John, How it works with man.
How water has a very important position to the “all that pertains to life” as well.
The Holy Spirit thought us that We rise out of detention (Genesis 1:2) through Adam. The flesh. Because Jesus bought us at the Cross, that we may believe Jesus about his Father (John 1:1-17). With A life outside of the Father’s mansion, controlled by Jesus and the Holy Spirit/Spirits (Genesis 1:2 if the Spirit of God was the working 2/3 of the angels that did not fall with lucifer, for repentance of our first world age sins (lucifer to Satan. Name change and position changed, time passed), and to show who is our Father (in Heaven)/father (of the earth). Where we deceived or where we following the plan? You know what I mean. “Where we go one we go all” is nothing more then the fallen communicating amongst the unholy spirits. Satan has taken the word and languages to confuse the masses. It is the mark of the beast. Surely you will not die??? 🤥👺👹

I remember my grandfather singing this all the time when we would ride in his truck. He was such a positive and happy faithful man. He moved to heaven last year and I miss him. I wish he was here to give me advice.
