Biblical Appearance of the New Testament Preacher

The True identity of the New Testament Preacher:

The FOUR appearances of a TRUE New Testament Preacher is found clearly, but first, in the Old Testament.  The visions of Eze 1:5 – “four living creatures.” The FOUR were as – a MAN, a LION, an OX (calf), and an EAGLE – Eze 1:10. Eze 1:6-16 - “ wheel in the middle of a wheel” – Eze 1:16. Then again in Eze 10:14 - a CHERUB (angelic); a MAN, a LION, and an EAGLE. Then fast-forward to the New Testament, Rev 4 where John had these heavenly visions – Rev 4:6 mentions “4 beasts” – Heavenly Creatures. Rev 4:7 – lists the FOUR as a LION, a CALF, a MAN, and a flying EAGLE. All God-Called New Testament Ministers that are preaching THE TRUTH, will have these four appearances.

Details reference the FOUR appearances of the “TRUE” New Testament Preacher are first that of a “MAN.” Jesus Christ Himself, being the Head of the New Testament Church is a MAN – The MAN Christ Jesus – Isa 32:2; Mrk 15:39; Lu 8:22-25; Joh 3:14; 7:46; 19:5; Eph 4:13; 1Ti 2:5; Heb 7:24. So, when he called MEN to follow him into the Ministry, he only called such, who were NATURAL men, but displayed, presented, declared, proclaimed and advocated the SAME principles Jesus espoused in Mt 4:16-22, Jesus Himself being baptized by a MAN, John the Baptist – Mt 3:13-17; 10:1-4; Go back and re-read – Eze 1:5-6,10,16; 10:14; Rev 4:6-7.


2nd Appearance of the True New Testament Preacher:

The Second (2nd) of these FOUR appearances of the “TRUE” New Testament Preacher is that of a “LION,” which is BOLD and BRAVE when earnestly contending for the Faith – Jude 1:3 – knowing the Eternal Finished Blood Shed Redemption on Calvary’s Cross by Jesus Christ ONLY, for all His Children, and without compromise. This characteristic is not “wishy-washy.” He only FEARS God. Read John 19:30. Further the LION knows and declares such, making the subject know they do not have to ACCEPT, as the subject - person is MADE ACCEPTED in the beloved – Eph 1:6. Knowing this “LION-aspect” by the recipient proves without SLAVISH FEAR, the finality of Eternal Life. Paul states this “LION-aspect” when he tells in Php 1:7,17 – that he is set for the DEFENSE OF, and also the CONFIRMATION OF the Gospel. Now, go back and re-read – Eze 1:5-6,10,16; 10:14; Re 4:6-7.

3rd Appearance of the True New Testament Preacher:

The Third (3rd) of these FOUR appearances of the “TRUE” New Testament Preacher is that of an “OX – CALF.” The young ox-calf has the potential of providing much future high quality services and products, whether male or female. Also, they are known for their strength, stability, stamina and persistent endurance. They can pull great loads and when the weight becomes too heavy, they just drop down to their knees and keep pulling. The King James Translation lists much about OXEN in the Old Testament, such as De 25:4 and the New Testament mentions them directly in 1Co 9:9 and 1Ti 5:18, clearly and strongly equating the OXEN to the TRUE New Testament Preacher. Now, go back and re-read – Eze 1:5-6,10,16; 10:14; Re 4:6-7.

4th Appearance of the True New Testament Preacher:


Fourth (4th) of these FOUR appearances of the “TRUE” New Testament Preacher is that of a “FLYING EAGLE.”. The Eagle has a keen, sharp eye and is ALERT, AWAKE and AWARE, detecting even the smallest movements all around, up and down, good or bad, right or wrong. Notice he is noted in one text as “FLYING.” He is on the job, as it is the Mother Eagle that sits upon HER nest – Deut 32:11 – indicating that He may have a WIFE. Further “THEY THAT WAIT UPON THE LORD,” mount up with wings as eagles, run and are not weary, walk and faint not – Isa. 40:31

Also a CHERUB (angelic) must manifest this quality of being SPIRITUAL-MINDED, in ALL FOUR appearances. Now, go back and re-read – Eze 1:5-6,10,16; 10:14; Re 4:6-7.
