"January 5, 2014 God's Living Bible - The Third Testament - God's New Revelations - The Gospel of Messiah and Apostle Rev Colleen Etana - Born Again, The Word Made Flesh
God Working through Colleen Etana with The Holy Spirit:
I received what seemed to be some sort of revelation concerning this topic the other day and have been working on it to help people understand what being born again means, (at least to me), and I will describe it as best I can here.
Here is a short conversation I had with Messiah Deb Clemente on Facebook that occurred while I was receiving a way to present this through The Holy Spirit beginning with a familiar phrase I remember reading from the scriptures in The New Testament, which I will cite towards the end of this document:
This is what it felt like to have the Christ within me, become born again IN me, which of course is not a physical birth, nor a child, but God and I becoming One, Consciously, the day I was Filled with The Holy Spirit, known as The Indwelling. An immaculate conception, more of a parallel to the birth of Jesus Christ in a way. I also believe this is what is known as putting on the Mind of Christ.
Without anyone from any church laying hands on me. Or any human touching me at all.
I was in a room full of people when I was also taken up in spirit and anointed, very much like at Pentecost when Jesus' Apostles received The Holy Spirit. The people around me didn't notice or see a thing and I was still fully conscious, sitting on my couch, but aware of my head being bowed and my arms outstretched, palms facing upwards in a receiving fashion. It felt like I was being crowned or something and I remember calling it my crown of many blessings.
Awakening to the Christ within and allowing God to raise me like a little child. Encouraging me here, correcting me there, feeding me The Word. I have never before known myself to be so Spirit led! It was and is so special; I felt so treasured. I suddenly belonged to something so much bigger than I. It was now Us, We.
My heart had to open the door to The Father first. I could only do this when I was ready to completely turn to God and begin to listen for His Voice, focus on Him, bypassing all the other things I'd ever been taught by Christianity, schools and parents, etc.
I put the Holy Bible down one day and told myself that I was going to give this 'revelational knowledge' thing I read about, a try and I stopped reading it completely.
I had realized that I needed no intercessor between God and I, as in going through Jesus. That's when it happened, directly.
I told myself that I was going to just learn how to stay in a meditative state, which for me is much like walking in spirit or with Spirit, all the time, night and day, never taking my focus or concentration off of God. We were Gaze to gaze. And still are, as it is like I never let Him out of my sight. Or He, me. My Father, my Best Friend and Playmate. My Teacher, my Confidant and Constant Companion.
I had been found. And that was just the beginning of another Great Love Story, a very Heavenly One which continues Eternally.
You can read much about this progression and many of my experiences, in my testimony section here on this site or in my early Gospel writings, two of which I will give links for here to show you the first writing in The Holy Spirit that I did and when I received the revelation of becoming a Messiah:
Here is Father's Answer regarding this subject:
“God Through Anne Terri With The Holy Spirit: Now, to Answer your question on giving Birth to The Christ. Your Inner Christ came to be possible as in the Awakening now being experienced at various levels. This was only possible after Jesus Bestowed The Holy Spirit Through Me to his Chosen Apostles. This is documented primarily as the Pentecost. This is when they began to realize they too could be Christs. They often wondered if I was Speaking through them, or not.
The way to this Miracle, was later suppressed by certain Christian Churches , and caused even a break between the Christian Churches in their Beliefs. We have Returned to Set this straight, and now with Proof of My Existence Given to many, I Speak to some of them Directly. Others are finding more intuitive methods to Receive My Word. You are more Direct.
AMEN”
Messiah Colleen writes:
Where before I saw only separation and division, hatred and intolerance everywhere around the world. I began to see diversity but no difference concerning all of humanity and every other living being now. All are One. It was revealed to me that all have the same God Given rights because the same God lives within them no matter what religion they practice and they weren't going to some burning hell because they didn't believe in Jesus being the only way.
There are many paths to God, as many as there are hearts and then some.
Messiah Colleen writes:
To meditate night and day on The Word is what these scriptures from the Old Testament Psalms mean. To contemplate God in everything and in every way possible, not 'just' on the words of others written, but for yourselves, personally.
Messiah Colleen writes:
And I meditate on all Your Wonders of new as well as of old, constantly.
The Kingdom of God is within and all around me.
For now I too am The Word Made Flesh.
AMEN"

Apostle Colleen Etana
It is no longer I, but the Father Speaking through me sister. I have had so many revelations yesterday and today. I am so humbled.
They could call me blessed among women too, for I too gave birth to the Christ within through The Holy Spirit.
Deb Clemente
Mary, is this you my dear?
Apostle Colleen Etana
She is with me sister, yet it is I, Colleen whom also gave birth to the Christ through The Holy Spirit, somewhat as she did, you see?
Deb Clemente
I believe I do indeed.
Apostle Colleen Etana
Without being touched by any man. (Meaning no man laid hands on me.)

Mark 13:28-37 Jesus Teaches-The Parable Of The Fig Tree - Watch and Pray – Do Not Sleep
28: Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When her branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is near:
29: So ye in like manner, when ye shall see these things come to pass, know that it is nigh, even at the doors.
30: Verily I say unto you, that this generation shall not pass, till all these things be done.
31: Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.
32: But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father.
33: Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is.
34: For the Son of man is as a man taking a far journey, who left his house, and gave authority to his servants, and to every man his work, and commanded the porter to watch.
35: Watch ye therefore: for ye know not when the master of the house cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning:
36: Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping.
37: And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.

Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him.
3: Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.

John 3:8-12 Jesus teaches: The wind ... thou hearest the sound .... but canst not tell whence it cometh ... so is everyone that is born of the Spirit ... Nicodemus: Now can these things be? ... Jesus: Art thou a master of Israel ... If I have told your earthly things, and ye believe not ... how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things?
8: The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.
9: Nicodemus answered and said unto him, How can these things be?
10: Jesus answered and said unto him, Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things?

Psalm 1
1: Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.
2: But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.
3: And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.
4: The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.
5: Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
6: For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.

Psalm 63
1: O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;
2: To see thy power and thy glory, so as I have seen thee in the sanctuary.
3: Because thy lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee.
4: Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name.
5: My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips:
6: When I remember thee upon my bed, and meditate on thee in the night watches.
7: Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice.
8: My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me.

Psalm 77
1: I cried unto God with my voice, even unto God with my voice; and he gave ear unto me.
2: In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord: my sore ran in the night, and ceased not: my soul refused to be comforted.
3: I remembered God, and was troubled: I complained, and my spirit was overwhelmed. Selah.
4: Thou holdest mine eyes waking: I am so troubled that I cannot speak.
5: I have considered the days of old, the years of ancient times.
6: I call to remembrance my song in the night: I commune with mine own heart: and my spirit made diligent search.
7: Will the Lord cast off for ever? and will he be favourable no more?
8: Is his mercy clean gone for ever? doth his promise fail for evermore?
9: Hath God forgotten to be gracious? hath he in anger shut up his tender mercies? Selah.
10: And I said, This is my infirmity: but I will remember the years of the right hand of the most High.
11: I will remember the works of the LORD: surely I will remember thy wonders of old.
12: I will meditate also of all thy work, and talk of thy doings.
