The Sacred Secret part II: A creative generating force

A Creative Generating Force

TThe Sacred Secret contained all the divine power necessary to restore creation fully and to bring about what Scripture describes as making “all things new” (Rev 21:5; 2 Pet 3:13). It was not merely a plan for restoration, but a means by which restoration and new creation could actually take place. Like a seed that carries within it the complete blueprint for new life, the Sacred Secret held the full potential to create what did not yet exist.

Scripture symbolizes this creative power as the “Jerusalem above,” portraying the Sacred Secret as a life-giving source rather than a static concept. For this reason, it is often depicted through the imagery of a woman giving birth—emphasizing generation, emergence, and new life. In this way, the Sacred Secret functions as a dynamic, creative generating force, designed by Jehovah to transform what was broken and to bring forth a renewed creation.

The Sacred Secret not only contained the essential elements needed to restore creation back to perfection, namely Jesus Christ and the 144,000, but also the ability to bring those elements into existence. This was necessary because Jehovah had entered into his sacred day of rest, a rest that marked the completion and perfection of his creative work. For Jehovah to resume direct creative activity would imply that what he had finished from the beginning was incomplete or required correction.

Instead, he formed the Sacred Secret in advance as a creative generating force that could operate within that rest, allowing restoration and new creation to take place without violating it. In this way, the Sacred Secret functioned as an extension of Jehovah’s completed purpose rather than a revision of it. It allowed new creations to come forth while Jehovah remained at rest, not because his work was inactive, but because it was already perfect. For this reason, the Sacred Secret stands as the ideal instrument Jehovah formed to guarantee the success of his eternal purpose, ensuring that all things could be restored and made new while preserving the integrity of what he had already declared complete.

Through the provision of the Sacred Secret, the Jerusalem above(Jesus' symbolic mother), Jesus was born again(Rev 12:5) and became a new creation. The 144,000, who are purchased with Jesus Christ blood, are also 'new creations' that come to exist within Jehovah’s sacred day of rest. Therefore the sacred secret is a creative generating force, created by Jehovah to bring into existence that which did not yet exist.

Born Again

To be born is to be created. When Jesus spoke to the Pharisee Nicodemus, he explained that unless a person is born again, he cannot see the Kingdom of God.

‍Jn 3:3 — “Most truly I say to you, unless anyone is born again, he cannot see the Kingdom of God.”

‍The Greek expression translated “is born again” is gennēthē anōthen, which literally means “to be generated from above.” This language points to the coming into existence of life from a higher source, not merely a change or renewal of what already exists.

Seen in this light, the Sacred Secret, symbolized as the Jerusalem above, can be understood as the creative generating force Jehovah used to bring Jesus Christ out of death and into new life. Through resurrection, Jesus was born again, generated from above, and became a new creation, having life within himself. This birth did not mark a return to former life, but the bringing forth of a new form of life as Jehovah had purposed.

The same is true of the 144,000 chosen ones. They were foreordained to be born again as new creations, patterned after Jesus Christ. As Paul states, Gal 4:26 — “But the Jerusalem above is free, and she is our mother.” Though formed within God’s purpose prior to the beginning of time, they are brought into existence as new creations through the same Sacred Secret. That same creative generating force serves as their symbolic mother, giving birth to them in due time, exactly as Jehovah intended.

2Ti 1:9 “He saved us and called us with a holy calling, not by reason of our works, but by reason of his own purpose and undeserved kindness. This was given us in connection with Christ Jesus before times long lasting,” [before the beginning of time, ASV]

Notice that Jesus’ brothers are called according to God’s own purpose. Because Jesus Christ is the exact image of God, he too necessarily shares in that same purpose. They are truly his brothers, not merely by association, but because both they and Jesus Christ were formed together within God as part of the solution to sin before creation began.

In this way, before anything came to exist within the stream of time that commenced with the creation of Jesus Christ, the Sacred Secret had already been formed. Contained within it were all the elements required to bring that solution into effect—its “DNA,” so to speak. This divine design was prepared in advance to bring into existence what did not yet exist, ensuring that God’s purpose would unfold exactly as intended.

‍“. . .Consequently if anyone is in union with Christ, he is a new creation; the old things passed away, look! new things have come into existence.” (2Co 5:17)​

Because Jehovah is still resting within the sacred day of rest, the sacred secret is the creative force that gives birth to Jesus Christ after his death, to cause him to be born again.

“ And she gave birth to a son, a male, who is to shepherd all the nations with an iron rod. And her child was caught away to God and to his throne.. . .” (Re 12:5)​

Conclusion

The woman described in Revelation chapter 12 is the symbolic representation of God’s Sacred Secret within Scripture, the Jerusalem above. The birth she gives to the male child represents Jesus Christ being brought forth from death, into existence as a new creation. That same pattern then applies to the 144,000, who are brought forth afterward in union with him by 'their mother'. In Scripture, to be born is to be created, and this vision depicts the Sacred Secret actively generating new life according to God’s purpose.

“. . .He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that he might become the one who is first in all things;” (Col 1:18)​

​“. . .These things stand as a symbolic drama... 26 But the Jerusalem above is free, and she is our mother.” (Ga 4:24-26)​

Thus, Jesus Christ is first in all things. He was first formed within God’s purpose, prior to creation itself, as the exact image of Jehovah, the only true God. Included within that purpose for Jesus was the Sacred Secret, so that if mankind were to sin, Jesus Christ would already stand as the appointed means by which humanity could be cleansed.

Jesus was the first to be brought into existence, marking the beginning of creation (Rev 3:14) and the start of time itself. He was also the first to be born from the dead, becoming the firstfruits produced by the seed of the woman, his symbolic mother, the Jerusalem above. In this way, Jesus is first in purpose, first in creation, and first in resurrection, standing at the center of God’s eternal purpose from beginning to end.

“. . .But each one in his own rank: Christ the firstfruits. . .” (1Co 15:23)​

​“. . .Because he willed it, he brought us forth by the word of truth, for us to be certain firstfruits of his creatures.” (Jas 1:18)​

Jesus Christ is the only one who the sacred secret, the Jerusalem above', has given birth to at this point in time. All the holy ones who have died do not exist anymore within creation, however once the 1260 days begins, through the provision of the sacred secret, the anointed will be given birth from their non existence, and resurrected to also have life within themselves. The remaining seed alive on earth will then have war waged against them by Satan, who will have at that point been thrown out of heaven in great anger.

“ However, now Christ has been raised up from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep [in death]. 21 For since death is through a man, resurrection of the dead is also through a man. 22 For just as in Adam all are dying, so also in the Christ all will be made alive. 23 But each one in his own rank: Christ the firstfruits, afterward those who belong to the Christ during his presence.. . .” (1Co 15:20-23)​

​“. . .For this is what we tell YOU by Jehovah’s word, that we the living who survive to the presence of the Lord shall in no way precede those who have fallen asleep [in death]; 16 because the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a commanding call, with an archangel’s voice and with God’s trumpet, and those who are dead in union with Christ will rise first. 17 Afterward we the living who are surviving will, together with them, be caught away in clouds to meet the Lord in the air; and thus we shall always be with [the] Lord.. . .” (1Th 4:15-17)​​

“. . .And the dragon grew wrathful at the woman, and went off to wage war with the remaining ones of her seed, who observe the commandments of God and have the work of bearing witness to Jesus.” (Re 12:17)​

Timeline of Events

If we break down the main events of creation and the Sacred Secret as presented in Scripture, the sequence can be understood as follows:

1. Jehovah purposes within himself to create, fully forming and completing his purpose before any act of creation begins.
2. Knowing that genuine free will necessarily includes the possibility of deviation, Jehovah knew that sin was a certainty over time, and he therefore formed the Sacred Secret in advance as the solution that would guarantee the success of his purpose.
3. Creation then begins, and time itself starts with the creation of Jesus Christ, Jehovah’s only-begotten Son.
4. Through Jesus Christ, all other things are created.
5. Jehovah enters into his sacred day of rest after completing his creative work and has remained in that rest ever since.
6. Sin manifests within creation, and at that point the Sacred Secret—the solution already prepared—begins to operate.
7. Jesus Christ comes to earth, proves that mankind can choose obedience, is put to death, and for three and a half days does not exist within creation.
8. After three and a half days, the Sacred Secret—symbolized as the Jerusalem above—gives birth to Jesus Christ as the firstborn from the dead.
9. During the 1,260 days, the remaining ones of the woman’s seed bear witness and are killed, joining those already waiting; once the full number is complete, all are brought forth together as new creations, just prior to the seventh trumpet.
10. Through Jesus Christ, the 144,000 symbolically become Trees of Life, serving as the means by which mankind will be healed from sin and imperfection.
