      <title>UNDERSTANDING THE SYMBOLIC CODE</title>

      <description>&lt;div&gt;The mathematical code of the Bible reveals physical events, while the code of DaVinci claims the existence of a physical lineage of Christ, a literal royal seed. But beyond these codes lies another code, the third and final code, sealed until the “third and final era of Jacob,” which began in 2000, revealing spiritual events that have led mankind into the place in which he finds himself today, the result of a spiritual seed (with an inferior spiritual DNA) that has been conceived in the spiritual womb of mankind. And whether or not Mary Magdalene conceived of the seed of Jesus, giving birth to a daughter named Sarah is not important. What is important is the symbolism contained in these stories that have been passed down to us through these ancient sacred writings.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Like the ancient Egyptian writings, the final code of the Bible is symbolic. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The Egyptians used symbols to represent words. 
&lt;br/&gt;The Bible uses words to represent symbolic meaning. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;For example, the kings of Egypt (using biblical symbolism) would read as, the spirits of The World, the word king symbolizing spirit and the word Egypt symbolizing The World.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;It is a symbolic language that teaches us about ourselves… the Bible detailing our journey through life.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The bondage of Egypt symbolizes the addiction of The World, and our earthly addictions are both spiritual and physical, symbolized by the four sons of the bondmaids of Rachel and Leah.  
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;When the children of Israel entered Egypt they were free as long as they were ruled by a king named Joseph, and the kings that knew Joseph. But after these die out, the children of Israel go into bondage.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;This king named Joseph symbolizes a spirit that allows us to remain free, and the kings that knew Joseph symbolize spirits associated with this spirit.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;To identify what this spirit is we need to look at the king, Joseph.  
&lt;br/&gt;What do we know about Joseph?
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;•  He was hated by his biological brothers.
&lt;br/&gt;•  He fled into Egypt in order to preserve his life.
&lt;br/&gt;•  He was given authority by God at the age of 30.
&lt;br/&gt;•  He was falsely accused and thrown into prison.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Now, let’s look at his New Testament parallel, Jesus.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;•  He was hated by his religious brothers.
&lt;br/&gt;•  He fled into Egypt in order to preserve his life.
&lt;br/&gt;•  He was give authority by Pharaoh at the age of 30.
&lt;br/&gt;•  He was falsely accused and thrown into prison.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Joseph, allegory to Jesus, symbolizes Truth. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;It is the spirit of truth that sets us free.  The spirits that are associated with truth (i.e., kings that knew Joseph) are given to us in the New Testament as the “fruits of the spirit:” love, compassion, temperance, patience, etc.  These “fruits of the Spirit” are symbolized in the Old Testament by the “sons of Jacob,” which also carry a negative aspect, which we are to judge (overcome) within ourselves.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;So the children of Israel remain free under Joseph, and under the kings that knew Joseph for 40 years, after which time they go into bondage for 390 years. After 430 years in Egypt they begin the journey of being led out of bondage.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Note: Egyptian time differs from our own by a factor of 10 to 1.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Now, let’s translate this using the symbolic code so that we may know ourselves:
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;As long as we are ruled by truth, and by spirits that identify with truth, we are free... a divine state of being that exists until we reach the age of 4.  After this time, due to events detailed in the biblical text, we go into bondage for approximately 39 years. At around the age of 43 many of us will enter into what is referred to as a “mid-life crisis,“ which is really a crisis of the divine spirit that has been diminished within us, and needs to be revitalized, quickened!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;And there you have it!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The real reason the Holy Bible has been carried to every corner of the World was not so it could be used by men of religion to instill fear, men seeking external control due to their own lack of authentic power, but to teach us about ourselves so that we can make the changes that will make our life the best that it can be!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;My understanding of the symbolic code of the Bible was the result of in-depth study and personal revelation.
