The Doctrine of the Dispensation of the Hypostatic Union, we need to establish what our Lord was doing even before He created the earth, and before He created man.
Some of most hidden mysteries concerning what our Lord provided is the fact that He was said to be the lamb who was slain before the foundation of the earth; Rev 13:8.
This passage and some others are considered to be the reasons why our Lord was said to be crucified even before the foundation of the earth or the creation of man.
For the apostle John gives us some insight into the mind or the thinking of the entire Trinity and our Lord is a part of that mind or type of thinking.
Knowing everything as He does, the Lord has provided, from His omnipotence, a divine solution for every problem.
The divine solution can only be discovered when the believer is living in the pre-designed plan of God and their very own personal sense of destiny.
This plan was designed specifically from His omniscience which knew every solution for every problem that you would ever face as He thought all about you.
The main difference is found in the fact that He was thinking of you and what was He thinking of me billions and billions of years ago in Eternity Past.
The Lord provided clear evidence of His deity and His humanity in eternity past when He demonstrated that He has everything under His control.
None of us can truly understand the separation that came about between the perfect Son of God and the holiness of God the Father when for the first time and the only time ever, that the Son was separated from the Father.
The perfect Son of God to contact the justice and righteousness of God as He was being offered up for the very first and only time as an offering for sin or a sin offering.
Our Lord relied upon the supernatural power of God the Holy Spirit to get Him through a time of suffering that no one has ever gone through before.
Notice what God the Holy Spirit is called, He is called the Comforter of the Spirit in Act 9:31; 2Co 1:8.
God the Holy Spirit reveals the tremendous power that our Lord had to use when He was on the cross suffering for the sins of the world.
The point is that our Lord was in complete agreement with the plan of God for the entire human race.
Our Lord desired to fulfill the requirements of this spiritual death on His own with no manipulation.
For even though it may seem that someone did this to our Lord, He is the one who chose to die for the sin of the world; Joh 10:17-18.
We also know some of the other events that took place, before the cross, on the cross, and then after the cross.
The Lord knew beforehand that all of us were not only in the mind of God in eternity past but we were also in the plan of God from eternity past.
The doctrine of Predestination which tells us that we were in the plan of God in eternity past.
The plan of God and the word of God which is always made available for those who desire to know certain doctrinal principles that exist just for you and me.
Very few believers ever prepare for coming disaster because in times of prosperity they think it’s going to last forever.
It dramatizes the situations we all face in some way with regard to the correct dispensation that we are dealing with at this time.
I have decided to look at Proverbs chapter 8 verse, where we have a personification of Bible doctrine, and its implication to our lives.
I want you to think of all the wisdom that has come from our Lord and Savior concerning the place in our heart where doctrine lives and abides.
We are going to note some of the mysteries and secrets that God has placed within His word for all of us to love and enjoy because of all the things God has prepared for those who love Him.
Wisdom is being called “her” or “she” and therefore we call this wisdom, which is really metabolized doctrine, he or she.
God the Holy Spirit is the one member of the Trinity who is responsible for wisdom or metabolize doctrine.
One of the most obvious reasons is that the female part of God and the ministry of God the Holy Spirit is a responder.
Though the roles may change from time to time, the man is called and known to be the initiator because he is usually and normally the aggressor in the male female relationship.
Psychology has recently reported that a healthy male and female relationship is based upon the roles of those involved.
There are times when role reversal is healthy, when the female is the initiator or the aggressor and the male is the responder, but that is not the norm or standard.
The point is that in the first 11 verses we have the principle of communication of Bible doctrine, that’s the first paragraph.
Wisdom is chokmah and it means metabolized doctrine.
Without the teaching of doctrine there can be no wisdom.
Without the perception, metabolization and application of Bible doctrine, there can be no wisdom.
Receiving knowledge or understanding doctrine gives you a voice, it gives you an impact.
In this passage wisdom is being personified. It does not refer to TLJC but it refers to that which TLJC thinks.
The following verses in this chapter reveal that wisdom is differentiated from the person of TLJC, although in reality the two are inseparable.
In all of these verses note that wisdom is differentiated from TLJC.
Wisdom is a noun chokmah in the feminine and it refers to Bible doctrine which has been metabolized in an individual’s life.
Call is the Qal future of the Hebrew verb qara which means to proclaim, to read, to call, to preach. In the Qal future it means that wisdom or doctrine will always proclaim, read and call.
No matter what type of attack is made against it, Bible doctrine or the word of God will keep on proclaiming and calling.
Qara also means to declare and announce freedom to those who are in slavery and bondage.
Truth doesn’t set every believer free because although truth is calling out, very few believers “know it.”
Understanding – tebunah – discernment – refers to the object of knowledge after one gets the understanding of knowledge.
When it says that understanding lifts up her voice, it has to do with the red alert system in the soul that causes believers to know that something is not as it appears.
Lift up is the Qal future of the Hebrew verb nathan which means to put forth, bring forth, or to give something.
Heb 5:14 but solid food is for the mature, who because of practice have their senses trained to discern good and evil.
Only the believer with doctrine resident in the soul will ever have the ability to discern a situation properly.
Wisdom or metabolized doctrine is easy to find places as of now.
AMO 8:11 “Behold, days are coming,” declares the Lord God, “When I will send a famine on the land, Not a famine for bread or a thirst for water, But rather for hearing the words of the Lord.
AMO 8:12 “And people will stagger from sea to sea, And from the north even to the east; They will go to and fro to seek the word of the Lord, But they will not find {it.}
Doctrine is in the feminine gender so we have She doctrine takes her stand.
Stand natsab means to take one’s stand, to recompense, to restore.
Natsab also means to set over, to establish, to station, to post, to garrison, to guard as an army.
Wisdom or doctrine will set over the believer and establish the believer in the devil’s world.
Cries out is the Hebrew verb ranan meaning to shout for joy or happiness.
Always in the gateway in the ancient world there was an auditorium that served as a news room to let people know what was going on.
The word for wisdom or doctrine is chakmah and it has a technical meaning which means to have technical understanding.
It means you have to learn a vocabulary that is technical.
You have to learn categories that are technical.
All good theology is based on Bible doctrine and it is technical.
