Messengers Preface: This introductory message is the New and Living *Way* heaven openedto a * reset* foundation whereby we could receive the rest of the messages inherent in this endtime Vision of Christ revealed to Habakkuk. The ay it does that is Christ is revealed as having!right !eams coming from His "ierced #ide$ even in %lory after sin has been eradicated from%ods universe. This tells us plainly that the Lamb bore is open wounds throughout the

heavenly sanctuary dispensation! The "ierced #ide of &esus awakens us to when He was on theCross$ offering the #acrifice for the #in of the orld and He was first pierced in His side and'forthwith came there out blood and water(. These heaven inspired pictures of &esus show$ dueto His open wounds in the setting the sanctuary and He being the )amb slain$ that the sacredblood of &esus has been shed for #acrifice for sin during His entire ministry in the heavenlysanctuary and will not cease until the )amb is freed from His sanctuary service for us at thetimes of efreshing which shall come from the "resence of the )ord and the remnant shall besealed and saved never to sin again. Then$ and not until then$ will only !right !eams of )ight#hine from the eternally open ounds of &esus. These things and more the Vision of Habakkukteaches us.

+lso these "right "eams of Light coming from the side of &esus gave us the first intimation$ in abright spiritual picture ,Habakkuk - / 0&V margin1$ that the Holy #pirit comes to us from &esusas #The $oul of * is* Life% 2 the Life of He ho was "ierced.
