[ 6 ] “Let’s go back to the Lord’s prayer. There it says, ‘Our Father who is
in the heavens, your name must be kept holy; your kingdom must come’
[Matthew 6 : 9 – 10 ]. You who are here understand these words as referring
solely to the Father in his divine nature. I, however, understand them as
referring to the Father in his human manifestation, which is in fact the
Father’s name. The Lord said, ‘Father, glorify your name’ [John 12 : 28 ], that
is, your human manifestation. When this takes place, then God’s kingdom
comes. This prayer was commanded for this time, that is, when people are
going to God the Father through his human manifestation.
“In fact, the Lord says, ‘No one comes to the Father except through
me’ [John 14 : 6 ]. And in the prophet, ‘A Child is born to us, a Son is
given to us, whose name is God,Hero, Father of Eternity’[Isaiah 9 : 6 ].
Elsewhere it says, ‘You, Jehovah, are our Father; our Redeemer from ever-
lasting is your name’ [Isaiah 63 : 16 ]. There are also a thousand other pas-
sages where the Lord our Savior is called Jehovah. This is the true
interpretation of the words of that prayer.”

dark cloud, and precipitation below each of them. Under the dark cloud
the precipitation was like a hard rain in late fall; under the opalescent
cloud it was like dew falling at the beginning of spring.
Suddenly I came from my spirit into my body and returned from the
spiritual world to the physical one.113 The fourth memorable occurrence.I looked out across the world of
spirits and saw an army on red horses and black horses. The riders looked
like monkeys. They were turned around with their faces and chests facing
the horses’ backs and tails, while the riders’ backs and the backs of their
heads faced the horses’ necks and heads. The reins were hanging around
the riders’ necks. They were uttering [battle] cries at some riders on white
horses and plying the reins with both hands, yet in fact they were reining
in their horses from battle. This went on and on.
Then two angels descended from heaven, and came over to me and
said, “What do you see?”
I told them how I was watching a very entertaining cavalry. I asked
what was going on and who they were.
“Those people are from the place that is called Armageddon in Rev-
elation 16 : 16 ,” the angels replied. “As many as several thousand have
