1Cr 15:40 "[There are] also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial [is] one, and the [glory] of the terrestrial [is] another." 2Cr 12:2 "I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;) such an one caught up to the third heaven." 1Cr 15:31 "I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily."
Now if Paul was "out of his body" when he met the man in the third heaven, what body was he out of and what body did he wear when he was out of his other body? And just where is the third heaven? And, if Paul died daily, then how did he die and how did he resurrect himself again on a daily basis? Please bear with me as I answer these questions.
The soul and spirit are not the body but are "housed" in the vessels that we call the body for the purpose of incarnation. The soul "wears" four interpenetrating vessels that relate to the four elements of fire, air, water and earth. These are our "terrestrial bodies". The fire body is also called the etheric body and this is the memory body where the "records" of our life journey is stored. The air body is also called the mental body where the functions of the mind are performed in conjunction with the physical brain. The water body is also called our emotional or desire body and is sometimes known as the astral body. The earth body is our physical body and the one that we most identify with and think of as "us". The glory, the light, of each body is the vibrational rate or frequency of that body.
Now what body was Paul "out of" and how does that relate to "dying daily"? When our physical body is at rest in sleep, the soul is still fully functioning and is able to travel "out of" the physical body in one of the other bodies; usually either the etheric body or the astral body. When the soul leaves the physical body, the soul is in effect "dead" to that body but still alive in the other body. When the soul returns to the physical body upon awakening, the soul in effect "resurrects" the physical body again.
Now there are 33 levels or dimensions of frequency of the Etheric Plane (Heaven) that ascend from Devacon (Wish Fulfillment, levels 1-6) to the 33rd level just below the Ascended Octaves of Eternal Light and Life. There are spiritual Retreats and Universities of the Spirit in the Etheric Plane (Heaven) where our souls receive instruction and are tutored. And there are 33 levels or dimensions of frequency of the Astral Plane that descend from Purgatory (levels 1-6) to the Pit of Hell at the 33rd level of depravity. The Astral Plane was meant to reflect the pure desires of God but it has become a polluted sewer of ungodly desires and emotional upheaval. The Astral Plane is the place of nightmares. Our soul travels in that body which correlates with our souls spiritual development, or lack of it; or which provides the lesson our soul needs to learn. After his crucifixion, Jesus spent three days preaching to the souls caught in the Pit of Hell.
Rev 22:11 "He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still."
When our earthly sojourn is done and our soul may no longer return to the physical body, the soul will remain in that body and in that dimension of being relating to what it has accomplished spiritually while in the earth. This is what we have superstitiously called "death". If the soul has not used up its allotted time for soul evolution, the soul will be allowed to incarnate into a new set of bodies. The memory of past incarnations will be blocked as a mercy to the soul so that it will not be burdened by the memory of things done or not done in a previous "life". Attainment earned in past lives will be available to draw on and that is why some children, such as a Mozart or Beethoven, are able to compose music from an early age. And some souls may bear the burden of neglect from a previous life which will manifest as some sort of disability. And some souls, such as the man born blind, take on burdens that are not theirs in order to assist others. Jhn 9:2 "And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?
Now we also have "celestial bodies", bodies of light. Jhn 14:2 "In my Father's house are many mansions: if [it were] not [so], I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you." Mat 6:20 "But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal." We have a Great Causal Body of Light which is both our treasure house in heaven and the many mansions of our Father's house. This Causal Body is composed of concentric rings of light and fire the colors of the Rainbow (wheels within wheels). This is our home of Light and the Rainbow was the sign given to Noah to comfort him and to remind him of where his true home lay. The Causal Body surrounds the Presence of God, The Mighty I AM Presence, the Presence of the I AM THAT I AM (which Moses saw when it burned in the bush that was not consumed) which is individualized for every son and daughter of God. We also have a Higher Mind, the Christ Mind which is our unique Holy Christ Self and a "member in particular" in the One body of Christ (1 Cor 12:27).
Each moment of our life, we receive Light from the Father to nourish us. Mat 4:4 "But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God." Jhn 1:1 "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." The Word is Christ, the Light, Jhn 1:9 "[That] was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world." In our etheric body there are spiritual organs just as our physical body has physical organs. The organs of the etheric body are known by their Sanskrit name, "chakra" which means wheel. A chakra is a whirling vortice of light which acts as a step down transformer for the pure light of God that we receive in order to distribute that light to the other bodies. There are 7 major chakras (7 churches in the body of man) from the base of the spine to the crown of the head. And there are 144 minor chakras, 5 Secret Ray chakras, and a very special chakra called "The Secret Chamber of the Heart" which St Teresa of Avila called "The Interior Castle".
Within the Secret Chamber of the Heart (our Heart of hearts) there abides the Spirit of the Son of God (Gal 4:6) that is an Unfed Threefold Flame of Power (blue, Father), Wisdom (yellow, Son) and Love (pink, Holy Spirit). This Flame is our "open door", our "Portal" to the kingdom of God within us (Luke 17:21) and it is the means by which we put on that mind which was also in Christ Jesus (Phil 2:5).
The light that we receive from the Father is his gift to us and is ours to use according to our free will. As we use that light, our identity is stamped upon it. As we use that light to perform our Sacred Labor and use that light righteously, then that light is "qualified" by vibration as a frequency of light the color of one of the rainbow rays. That light is free to complete the circuit to God and is stored in our Causal Body as our treasure in heaven.
But, if we misuse that light, that energy of God, in riotous living, then we cast a pall upon it and darken it and it becomes veiled in darkness (energy veiled or e-vil, which is evil). Mat 6:23 "But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great [is] that darkness.?" Since that evil, that darkened light belongs to us, only we have the power to free it. It must cycle back to us for redemption, and when it does then it can cause us great burdens and calamities until it is expiated by pain and suffering, service to life, prayer and invocation or by scientific affirmations and mantra which draw to us the light of God; particularly the Violet Light (Ray, Flame, Fire) of the Rainbow which is God's Universal Solvent and Cosmic Eraser. Using the name of God, I AM THAT I AM, as Jesus did to affirm Truth, we can say "I am a being of violet fire, I am the purity God desires" to affirm the Truth of God's Violet Light to wash our sins (evil) and make them white as snow. That light and energy is now free to return to God and also be stored in our treasure house in heaven, our Great Causal Body of Light.
