Do you know what each color in the rainbow means? I found something that explains it:

Red represents the blood Jesus shed for us

Yellow is for God¶s perfect light, the sun so bright

Orange is coming from night into life with thru Jesus.

Green reminds us that God created the earth and trees. Like the grass in spring, it represents thenew life we have in Jesus.

Blue represents the color of water. God created the oceans & seas, this meminds us of the baptismthat identifies us with Jesus.

Black represents our sins and God¶s darkest day.

Purple is for Jesus¶ hours of sorrow, so we can gain the crown of life.

Pink is for our new tomorrows.

White represents God¶s purity and the cleansing of our sins thru God¶s grace.

COLORS IN SCRIPTURE

(See New Colors in Scripture ) Creation began with light. The seven colors of the rainbow radiate the glory of Divine

Production. Every color of the spectrum of visible light is pregnant with revelation of the splendor of the Lord Jesus Christ, the effulgence of deity, and Creator of all things.



The Scripture Speaks

Definitions of divine truth must come from the Word of God. Only scripture is thelegitimate source for revelation of the meaning of Creation. If we want to understandthe meaning of colors or anything else in creation, we must consult the infallibleWord of God. The Canon of Scripture (the Bible) is the source of definition of colors.The meaning of each color is defined by the Word of God.

Purpose of Colors in Scripture

On the first day of the Re-Creation of the Earth to get it ready for man in the AppealTrial of Satan, light was the first thing created. That light divided the darkness. Thelight was both real and symbolic. The real nature of light had physical properties. Theacademic discipline of physics has discovered many of the characteristics of thatcreated light. The light has been found to have a visible and an invisible spectrum.Quantum mechanics even deals with the fundamental components of the particlestructure of light energy; so that this light is perceived as a basic building block of atoms. So light is the basis for all physical creation.

It is the visible spectrum of light, however, that is the part of the everyday vocabularyof most people. The seven colors of the rainbow paint our world with beauty. Theshades and combinations of the seven basic colors yield thousands of colors to thrilland characterize our world. The question we must ask is, "If God created seven colors,what do they mean?" To get that answer, the scripture must be examined.

Light Production

Our first clue of the meaning of colors is found in the first reference to light in thescripture.

God decreed, "Light be coming into existence , and there was light." (Gen. 1:3) The first thing God created was light. This light was physical light with both a visibleand an invisible spectrum. This light was the basic building block of all physicalcreation. In the next verse, "God saw the light and proclaimed it as good." This meansthat light is divine good production - something that God did that had intrinsic value.God's production has intrinsic value, and we call it divine good. The light also dividedthe darkness; so here is a contrast between light and darkness. They are distinct,separate, not the same. Light stands out as divine good production.

So, from the beginning light was production which manifested the glory of theCreator. The light divided the darkness, but the light could not be divided. The lighthad a visible spectrum which consisted of seven colors. Each one of those colors was



a part of the production of the light. The seven colors represent a complete category asdeduced from the meaning of the number, seven , from the seven days of re-creation.

Types of Colors

Colors in scripture fall into various categories. These include:

Visible Light Spectrum Colors in NatureArtificial ColorsPatterns

The light that was created on the first day was both visible and invisible. We knowthat the spectrum of light contains seven distinct colors along with thousands of shades. The colors of the rainbow as shown to Noah are the entire Visible LightSpectrum. There is also an invisible part of the spectrum of light, which is not to becovered in this article. Colors of visible light are found in the scripture.

The Colors in Nature are the colors of the objects and scenes in nature. The colorsinclude the color of objects, such as wood, apples, oranges, and rocks, as well asscenes, such as the sky, the ocean, the corn field. So when a scene is described in theBible, colors may be obvious even though they are not specified. Why are thesecolors mentioned as a separate category from the Visible Light Spectrum? It isn't

because light is not the way we see them, but rather that nature combines colors invarious ways that are not the pure colors of the rainbow. Pigments and compoundsmay be mixed together in various ways to produce colors that are difficult to classifyas one of colors of the rainbow.

The Artificial Colors are man-made. They are the paints and dyes of the ancientworld. The Egyptians and Phoenicians discovered all kinds of ingenious ways of making dyes to color fabrics. Blue, purple, and crimson were among the famousdyes. The Assyrians used paint (especially vermilion) in their art.



Color Patterns are yet another factor for consideration. The Pattern of a color maychange the meaning significantly. For example a spotted (or blemished) garment isnot pure. A spot represents an impurity (Ephesians 5:27; 1 Timothy 6:14; 1 Peter 1:19; 2 Peter 3:14). A wrinkle may represent human good, but it is another exampleof an impurity. Multiples of horizontal bands represent multiplication. Those whoexpose faults in others may multiply, or magnify, the perceived faults. Shimei did thisto David (2 Sam. 16:7) as David was receiving installment discipline from God duringthe Absalom rebellion. Vertical stripes may represent slicing, e.g. slicing cheese or carving meat. Some of the common patterns include:

L ight and Darkness

W hite Light

Visible light is clear, transparent. It is the medium for sight. Even though it containsseven colors, a light beam appears white. The color white is produced by an objectthat reflects all the light that hits it. The reflected light is the same as the incominglight - i.e. none of the seven colors of light are absorbed. We consider white a color. Itis the composite of all the colors of light.

In the Tabernacle of the Exodus generation, white was the color of the surroundingwall of linen. The eight-foot high wall of linen kept the people out, separated theTabernacle from the world, and controlled the perimeter to afford only one port of access, the Gate. The curtain of the Gate was made of "blue, purple, scarlet, and finelinen ( white )" (Exodus 27:16). Isaiah defines the meaning of this white:

Isaiah 1:18 ³Come now, and let us reason together,´ Says the Lord, ³Thoughyour sins are as scarlet, They will be as white as snow; Though they are red like

crimson, They will be like wool. Thus, white means pure. White is contrasted with red, the color of sins. White is theresult of purification of sins which happens for the believer at the moment of salvation

based upon the work of the Lord Jesus Christ, who paid for the sins. The purity of salvation is represented as white clothing (Matt. 17:2; Mark 9:3; Luke 9:29; Rev.7:14, 19:14). The white clothing of salvation is symbolized by a robe of righteousnessin Isaiah 61:10.



White is used to describe to the color of ripened grain in contrast to green before theripening.

³Do you not say, µThere are yet four months, and then comes the harvest¶?Behold, I say to you, lift up your eyes, and look on the fields, that they arewhite for harvest. (John 4:35, NAS)

The grain that has reached maturity, ripe, and ready to be harvested. Here the LordJesus Christ is using an agricultural analogy to unbelievers who are currently positive

but have yet to hear the gospel. When they hear the gospel, they will be evangelizedand sanctified. So, the Lord who knows their heart sees them as if they were alreadysaved; and they will be shortly. White in this verse represents positionalsanctification, although it is yet future. Although positional sanctification is the issuehere, the grain had reached maturity and the ripening process is analogous toexperiential sanctification. This is also an example of how the words for the color,white, in the scripture have a broad range of meanings just as they do today (e.g.white wine).

Something else that is pure and can never be adulterated is God's love. I Corinthians13 is a description of love which clearly reveals this. The command for a husband tolove his wife in Ephesians 5:25-26 also demonstrates that love must be pure.

Ephesians 5:25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the churchand gave Himself as a substitute for her; 26 that having purified her , He might sanctify her by the washing of water bythe communicated Word ( gospel )

White in the body may symbolize purity, such as the whites of the eyes and the teeth.However, white in the body is generally not good. It represents infection, welt,

bloodless, and therefore lifeless ( Exodus 4:6; Leviticus 13:18-20; Job 7:5 ).

WHI TE means Pure ( I sa. 1:18); sanctification (John 4:35, 1 Cor. 6:11; Eph5:26); love (Eph. 5:25; 1 Cor. 13).

Da rkness - Bl a ck

Since darkness is contrasted with light in Genesis 1:4, there is obviously symbolicmeaning attached to darkness. Black darkness is used to described the second death,the final judgment of the cosmic evangelist (2 Peter 2:17; Jude 13). Black darkness isassociated with death of a baby (Job 3:3-11). And it is the darkness of skin that is

burned (SOS 1:5-6) or diseased (Job 30:30). Thus, black refers to death.

Darkness (which obviously has the characteristic color, black) refers to Satan'sCosmic System, cosmos diabolicus , the world. The world is separated from the light



(John 1:5). Rejection of the light, thinking like a Gentile unbeliever, is described asdarkness in the understanding (Eph. 4:18). The world system is characterized by thelove of money (monetary reversionism), which will be judged symbolically by one of the four horsemen of the Apocalypse (the rider on the black horse) (Rev. 6:5).

B LA CK means Death (2 Peter 2:17; Jude 13; Job 3:3-11); the world (John 1:5;Rev. 6:5).

Red

Red refers to the blood of Christ in the curtain over the Gate of the Tabernacle. The blood represented Redemption, the payment for the sins of the world. Red signifiessin (Isa. 1:18). Adam was made from clay, which was red. The name, Adam, isderived from that meaning. Adam was the source of sin in the human race.

The red dye that was used in the Tabernacle, called "scarlet" (Exodus 25:4),Hebrew tola`ath , was crimson. The real color was crimson even though it istranslated, scarlet, in the NASB.

Crimson

The root meaning of the Hebrew word is worm. It was used in various forms inHebrew with meanings such as shining worm, glow worm 1, worm of brightness. Itreferred to the insect, Coccus ilicis , qirmiz in Arabic, from which the English wordcrimson is derived. The female insect, which feeds on the holm oak, laid eggs whichcontained a red substance from whence the dye was made. The Greek name for theinsect was kokkos, meaning berry because it was pea like and resembled a berry. 2

Robes of crimson were worn by the wealthy (2 Samuel 1:24; Proverbs 31:21;Jeremiah 4:30; Lamentations 4:5; Revelation 17:4). The Greeks and Romans usedthis color for military cloaks. The cloak that the soldiers put on Jesus was crimsonaccording to Matthew 27:28 and probably was one of the military cloaks. AlthoughMark and John call it purple, this is not a contradiction since in the language of the

people purple dye also produced the crimson color.

The crimson robe on Christ before His crucifixion calls attention to another meaningof the color. Red means suffering. The purple-red of crimson refers also to judgment- i.e. the justice of God. The Lord Jesus Christ suffered the justice of God on our

behalf.

Red in the human body is not only the color of blood but also indicative of a health problem where it means suffering, inflamed, anger, or a raw wound ( Exodus 21:25;Isaiah 1:6; 30:27 ).

Pink



Pink is a mixture of white and red. It is the color of healthy flesh. Flesh in the Biblesymbolizes the Old Sin Nature because the 23 chromosomes inherited from Adamreside there. Thus, pink also represents lust.

Or a nge

Orange as the second color of the rainbow represents separation per the meaning of the number 2, for divine division, or separation. The word for the color, orange, doesnot appear in scripture per se; but it is obviously there in the rainbow and in materialsthat are mentioned. For example, iron ore and rust as well as iron, which wasundoubtedly rusty, are all mentioned. Pottery is often orange in color. Smashing

pottery with a rod of iron represents judgment upon human good (rejection of divinegood) and evil (Psa. 2:9; Rev. 2:27, 12:5, 19:15). The feet of pottery mixed with ironon the image in Nebuchadnezzar's dream (Dan. 2:42-43) represent the weakness of man (human good) in the face of divine judgment. All these things are associated withnegative volition and the resulting dead works. Orange refers to God's separation andto man's human good and evil, both of which were rejected on the cross.

Brown

Brown means dying, decaying, atrophy ( Job 13:28; Habakkuk 3:16; 2 Corinthians4:16 ). It is one of the colors for dead works as represented by wood, hay, and straw.

Y ellow

Yellow is the color of glory, which is the glow or shining of something that isreleasing energy. There was a glow associated with the Shekinah Glory in theTabernacle and the Golden Lampstand. The production of good works requires therelease of energy. The radiance of light production is represented by yellow. Sincehuman life radiates a glory, then yellow is also a color for life. The strength, or capacity, of life is also represented by yellow.

However, yellow in the human body is not a sign of strength. Yellow teeth mayrepresent the first stage of decay. Yellow in the body may also represent jaundice and

bitterness ( Job 16:13; Acts 8:23 )

G reen

The color, green, refers to man's perfect environment of the Garden of Eden. Green isthe color of plant life, which covers the earth in abundant luxury. It is associated withhealthy plant life, and, therefore, with happiness. However, plants may be good plants



or weeds. The spreading everywhere as uncultivated weeds is the basis for applyinggreen to lawlessness.

Blue

Blue is the color of the sky. It reminds us of heaven and refers to Jesus Christ as theSon of God who came down from Heaven as portrayed by the Gospel of John. Itrepresents the Righteousness of God. So long as divine righteousness is associatedwith Heaven, that is proper; but when the created being (mankind) represents himself as divine righteousness that is a sin. When a human presents himself as God, then thatis the sin of self-righteousness (making oneself God), which is also represented by thecolor, blue. Rejection of God is called hardening the heart, which is another derivedmeaning that goes along with making oneself God.

Blue in the human body, such as a bluish color of the flesh, may mean cold or bruised(Exodus 21:25; Job 9:17; Isaiah 30:26 ).

. . . . . Violet - Purple - Blue Spectrum

The color, blue, used in the Tabernacle was called in Hebrew, t ekeleth (Exodus 25:4).The color is deep, dark blue. It is described as "purple of a dark blue shade,approaching black." 1 According to Josephus ( Ant. 3.7.7) and Philo this color bluesymbolized the sky. This is the color that is translated violet in Esther 1:6 because of its violet tint. The color was worn by princes and nobles (Ezekiel 23:6). The idols of Babylon were clothed in "violet ( t ekeleth) and purple" (Jeremiah 10:9). Also thetassels on the corners of the Hebrew garments were to be this blue color to remindthem of the importance of obeying the commandments of the Law (Numbers 15:39-40) whereby they were sanctified, set apart, from the world. The blue tassels werereminders of the promises of Bible Doctrine and symbolized the heavenly calling(from identification with the blue sky).

Indigo

Indigo is one of the colors of the rainbow, which appeared after the flood had coveredthe earth. It refers to being covered. It is a dark, background color. TheHebrew kipper means to cover as well as to propitiate or make atonement. Indigo isthe color of pin feathers, which are covered. It is the color the veins which arecovered by the skin and carry blood back to the heart that is full of impurities. Theveins cover the impure blood. The color, indigo, does not appear per se in scripture.



V iolet

Violet is a color of the Visible Light Spectrum, but the only colors in scripture areArtificial Colors, which are made from dyes. They color purple in scripture was madefrom dye. The purple dye may have tints that run toward blue or red. The red purpleis sometimes translated, violet. The color purple in scripture is the symbol for royalty. Kings dressed in robes of purple. The Lord Jesus Christ, future king of Israel,is portrayed as the Royal Messiah in the curtain over the Gate of the Tabernacle aswell as the Gospel of Matthew (Matt. 21:5-11).

From the association of purple with royalty, there are derived meanings for the color.Royalty has ruling power and is the source of justice. Jesus Christ as the ruler of Israel in the Millennium will rule with a rod of iron (Psalm 2:9; Revelation 2:27; 12:5;19:11-16). He will bring swift judgment upon the nations of the earth like smashing aclay pot with a rod of iron. Thus, purple refers to justice.

For those who would seek to ascend the throne of royalty by their own ambition, thecolor purple also signifies jealousy. Jealous ambition was the original sin of Satan,who said, "I will be like the Most High" (Isa. 14:14). Jealous ambition seeks ruling

power, which is the prerogative of God. Thus, purple also is the color for jealousy.

The color purple used in the Tabernacle (Exodus 25:4) was made from purple dye.The word in Hebrew is ' argaman . The color was true purple of a dark red color. 1 Thedye was made from the tiny mollusk, Murex trunculus , by the Phoenicians (Ezekiel27:7, 16). The dye was so expensive that only royalty and the wealthy could affordgarments colored with it (Esther 8:15; Daniel 5:7; Luke 16:19; Revelation 17:4). 2

The purple in the Gate of the Tabernacle (Ex. 27:16) represented Jesus Christ, theRoyal Messiah. But this Royal Messiah would first have to suffer the justice of Godon behalf of mankind. Thus, inherent in the color purple was the justice of God.Jesus Christ satisfied the justice of God and thereby became the mediator betweenGod and mankind. After He had satisfied the justice of God, He arose victorious andis now seated at the right hand of the throne of God. He will return at the SecondAdvent to conquer the nations who are the enemies of Israel, and He will rule in theMillennium with an iron rod (which symbolizes his swift justice).

As the Lamb without spot and without blemish, Jesus Christ was perfect (pure,sanctified) humanity - equal with man. Jesus Christ, the Sanctified Servant, was

portrayed in the Gospel of Mark. He was the second Adam, and uniquely qualified to be our Redeemer and pay for the sins of the world. Christ, our Redeemer, was portrayed as the Suffering Son of Man in Luke. As the Son of God, Jesus Christ wasequal with God. He possessed deity. In the Gospel of John He was portrayed as theSon of God who came down from Heaven. As the Mediator, the Lord Jesus Christ

brought the two parties in conflict, God and man, together. He paid for man's sins asthe Redeemer and thus reconciled man to God. He satisfied all the requirements of Righteousness and Justice of God as the Mediator. God the Father was propitiated bythe work of Christ on the cross on behalf of all mankind. Just as the smoke went upfrom the animal sacrifice as a sweet smell to God and signified divine acceptance, theWhite color in the gate also signified the propitiation of God the Father with thesacrifice of Christ on the cross. When the work of the cross was finished, the LordJesus Christ was resurrected and seated at the right hand of the Throne of God. He

will return in the Second Advent as the Royal Messiah (Gospel of Matthew) to rulethe nations in the Millennium in fulfillment of the New Covenant to Israel.

Colors of Creation



The Universe was created (Gen. 1:1). Then the angels were created. Later, Satansinned and took a third of the angels with him (Rev. 12:3-4). When Satan and hisdemons rejected God's solution to their sins, they were sentenced to the Lake of Fire(Matt 25:41; Jn 12:31; 16:11). However, Satan appealed the sentence, and man wascreated to resolve the issue (Gen. 1:26). To make the Earth ready for man, God firstJudged it. He destroyed it, and packed it in ice (Gen. 1:2). The Earth had previously

been created perfect. It was not a wasteland. It was called the Garden of God (Gen1:1; Eze 28:13; Isa 45:18). The Earth was renovated for Satan's Appeal Trial in theseven days of re-creation.

The re-creation sequence follows the colors of the rainbow.God's Love and Sanctification are symbolized by white light.Sin leads to darkness and death in contrast to the light. God's

perfect integrity cannot love sin; therefore, His Justice rejectsit in a process of sanctification that requires death. However,since Satan already had Eternal Life, his Judgment wasspending eternity separated from God in the Lake of Fire.Beginning with violet, each color of the rainbow symbolizes adifferent aspect of God's sanctification. Before the first day of re-creation, the Justiceof God (violet) had already Judged Satan and the Earth. The Earth was a wastelandand covered in ice as symbolized by the color indigo. The first two colors in sequencewere violet and indigo. The other colors would follow in sequence after light wascreated.

Day 1 - Light was created (Gen. 1:3). The white light symbolized God and His Lovein contrast to the darkness of Satan and death. Day 2 - The waters on the Earth were separated from the waters of the Atmosphere(Gen. 1:7). Both were blue. Note, blue is the next color in sequence after indigo. Day 3 - Plants were created (Gen. 1:12), as symbolized by the color green. Day 4 - Lights were placed in the heavens (Gen. 1:14). The lights represented theglory of Eternal Life (Jn 1:4). The Sun symbolized the Lord Jesus Christ, the Light of the world (Jn 8:12), and the Moon symbolized the congregation of believers. Thestars symbolized believers with Eternal Life in Resurrection bodies.

Day 5 - Great sea monsters, fish, birds created (Gen. 1:21). Sea monsters, such aswhales and sharks, symbolize a giant, such as Baal, who is evil. This was symbolized by the color orange. Day 6 - Man and animals were created on the Earth (Gen. 1:24-27), as symbolized bythe color red. The name, Adam, means red. Day 7 - The seventh day was sanctified by God (Gen 2:3), as symbolized by the color



White.

b. Symbolizes spirit - Z-axis God breathed into Adam's nostrils. This was symbolic of giving him life, but it alsoactivated the Respiratory System.

GREEN - Fruit, plant life, Garden of Eden (Genesis 1:11-13 ); Happiness a. Digestive system

b. X-axis Man ate fruit in the Garden as symbolized by the color green. He had a DigestiveSystem. And man was very happy in the Garden.

YE LLOW - Spiritual life, human soul life (Gen 2:7), light, glory (Psa 8:5) Y-axis

Adam was given Spiritual life and human soul life at creation.

The LORD God sculpted man of dust from the ground, and breathed into his nostrilsthe spark of life ( soul life of lives ); and man became a living soul. (Genesis 2:7) The Hebrew words translated "spark of life" literally mean soul life of lives, whichrefer to both human soul life and spiritual life. Adam was created with a body, soul,and spirit. He was divinely enlightened, walked in the Light, and could see physicallight. Thus, the color yellow symbolizes his soul and spiritual life as well as the lightthat his eyes saw. He also had glory (Psa 8:5).



O R A NGE - Bone Adam had bones, a Skeletal System, at creation. The woman was built from Adam'srib (Gen 2:21-23).

RED - Flesh, Earth, Adam

Adam was formed from the dust of the ground (Earth) (Gen 2:7). Later, when Adamsinned, the color red also symbolized sin.

Colors of the Cross

B LA CK - Spiritual Death (Gen 2:17; Eph 2:1, 5; Col 2:13) After Adam sinned, he died spiritually and fell into thedarkness of Satan's Cosmic System. Death and darkness aresymbolized by the color black in the picture. Adam's originalsin was imputed to the children of Adam, and God Judgedeach one with spiritual death at birth (Rom. 5:18).So therefore, as through one transgression ( Adam ' s Original Sin), there resulted condemnation to all mankind; even sothrough one judicial sentence there resulted Justification of Eternal Life to allmankind. (Romans 5:18) The holiness, or sanctity, of God required that sin be Judged. God could not love sin.The solution to man's sin problem would require the work of God. "Through one

judicial sentence" God would sentence His Son to death as a substitute for the sins of all mankind. So, the Lord Jesus Christ was sanctified and sent on a mission to planetEarth to handle the Judgment for sin (John 10:36; 1 Cor 15:22). For as in Adam all die, even so by agency of Christ shall all be made alive. (1Corinthians 15:22) The perfect humanity of Jesus Christ did not have the sin of Adam. Jesus Christ was

pure and, thus qualified to bear the sins of the world (2 Cor. 5:21; 1 Pet. 1:19; 2:22).The purity of Jesus Christ before going to the Cross was symbolized by the color white.

RED - Blood of Christ; Redemption (Eph 1:7; Col 1:14; 1 Pet 1:18-19; Heb 9:12, 28);Sacrifice (Eph 5:2; Heb 9:26; 10:12); Sins (Isa 1:18; 1 Pet 2:24)

The Father's Plan required the Jesus Christ go to the Cross where the sins of the worldwere imputed to Him by the Father and Judged (Isa 53:5-6; 2 Cor 5:21).



Isaiah 53:5-6 5 But He was pierced by means of our transgressions. He was crushed by our iniquities. The punishment that brought peace ( reconciliation ) was upon Him. By His wounds, it was healing to us. 6 We all like sheep have gone astray. Each one of us has turned to his own way, And the LORD ( Father ) has caused to strike Him With the punishment of all of us.

The suffering of Jesus Christ as the sacrifice for sins was symbolized by the color red.

O R A NGE - Separation of the Father (Matt 27:46; Rom 8:32) The Father Judged the sins of the world in Christ (Isa 53:4). While Jesus Christ was

bearing the sins of the world, the Father separated from Him as Jesus cried out, "My

God, My God, why have you forsaken Me?" (Matt. 27:46). Sin was abhorrent to theRighteous Son of God. The work of Salvation was accomplished by Jesus Christalone, and He is the sole source of Salvation. There is Salvation in none other (Acts4:12).

YE LLOW - Eternal Life (Jn 3:16, 36; Rom 6:23; 1 Jn 5:11); Christ the Light (John8:12; 9:5; 12:46); Sun (Psa 19:4-6; 89:36) darkened (Matt. 27:45) While Jesus Christ was bearing the sins of the world, the Sun was darkened (Matt.27:45). The darkness symbolized the substitutionary spiritual death of Jesus Christ.This was symbolized by the color yellow, for the light of the Sun.

GREEN - Green wood of Cross (Luke 23:31); Happiness as Problem Solving Device(Heb 12:2); Blessing of victory of Cross (Matt 12:20); Blessing of Salvation (Rom4:7-8) As Jesus Christ was being led away to be crucified, He referred to the Cross as the"green tree" (Luke 23:31). While He bore the sins of the world, He used Happiness asa Problem Solving Device (Heb. 12:2). This is symbolized by the color green.

B LU E - Righteousness of God satisfied (Rom 3:25; 2 Cor 5:21; 1 Pet 1:19; 2:22-23) by Christ (Isa 53:11; Rom 5:21)

Jesus Christ, who Himself had divine Righteousness, came down from Heaven (Jn6:41), as symbolized by the color blue. The impeccable human nature of Christsatisfied the Righteousness of God. The purification for sins by the Lord Jesus Christsatisfied the Righteousness of the Father.

whom God has displayed publicly by His blood at the Mercy Seat ( the place of propitiation ) through faith ( in Christ ), a demonstration of His Righteousness, because



of the passing over of previously committed sins by the clemency ( delay in judgment )of God; (Romans 3:25)

I ND I G O - Covering (Rom 4:7), Unlimited Atonement, Propitiation (Dan 9:24; Rom3:25; Heb 2:17; 1 John 2:2; 4:10); Kenosis (Phil 2:6-8); Eclipse/Evidence Testing(Heb 2:9); Qualification for Resurrection Clothing (Heb 2:7-8)

a. Kenosis - Christ voluntarily restricted the independent use of His deity to obeythe Father's will for Him to go to the Cross and bear the sins of the world.

b. Paradigm shift to Spiritual, leaving behind the world and symbolizing theResurrection (Heb 12:2)

c. Use of Grace in Eclipse/Evidence Testing (Heb 2:9)

Jesus Christ satisfied all of the requirements of the Father for handling the sin problem. This is called propitiation. And payment for all of the sins of the world had been completed. This is called Unlimited Atonement. Atonement and Propitiationwere symbolized by the color indigo.

Indigo also symbolizes the Doctrine of Kenosis. Kenosis comes from the Greek verb kenovw (kenoo ), meaning to empty or divest of privileges. The doctrine meansthat during the Hypostatic Union, the Lord Jesus Christ voluntarily restricted theindependent use of His deity to comply with the Sovereign will of God the Father andthe Sovereign Design of the Son. He veiled His preincarnate glory and submitted tothe authority of the Father. He took upon Himself the robe of flesh to go to the Crossand pay for the sins of the world. His deity was veiled, and the divine glory in Hishumanity was not seen. He had the power to walk off the Cross, but He voluntarilystayed there until His sacrifice was complete (Phil 2:6-8).

The color indigo also relates personally to Jesus Christ, who was undergoing EclipseTesting , or Evidence Testing, on the Cross (Heb 2:9). He used Grace to pass the test.The humanity of Christ suffered and died on the Cross as a substitute for His Bride,the Church. It was the greatest suffering in the human race. Passing the test qualifiedJesus Christ for the highest promotion with a new title of royalty (Phil 2:9-10) andclothing to match in His Resurrection (Rev 19:16).

The color indigo indicates a paradigm shift to the Spiritual. It symbolizes leaving behind the world and living, or dying, for the Resurrection (Heb 12:2). It ischaracteristic of believers who are in Spiritual Rapport with God.

VIOL ET - Justice (1 Pet 2:23), Royalty, King of Jews (Matt 2:2; 27:37; Jn 19:19);Verdict Justification available (Rom 3:24-26; 5:18) Since God the Father had Judged the sins of the world that He imputed to Jesus



Christ, the Justice of the Father was completely satisfied. On the Cross Jesus Christkept entrusting Himself to the Justice and Judgment of God the Father (1 Pet 2:23).Violet is also the color for royalty, and Jesus Christ was the King of the Jews. And inthe suffering of the Cross, He was qualifying for an even greater title of royalty inResurrection body - "King of kings and Lord of lords." God pronounced the judicialverdict that Justification was available to all mankind because work of Christ on theCross propitiated Him.

WHI TE - Sanctification (Eph 5:26; Heb 1:3; 10:10; 13:12; 2 Pet 1:9) The work of Jesus Christ on the Cross satisfied all the demands of God the Father for Sanctification. Sanctification was then available to every member of the human racewho wanted it (Heb. 10:10). Sanctification is symbolized by the color white in thecenter of the rainbow picture. Note that the sequence of re-Creation proceeded frominside to outside the rainbow, and the sequence of Salvation at the Cross proceededfrom outside to inside the rainbow. This symbolizes the beginning and the end.

Colors of Christ's Resurrection

Using the rainbow picture, the sequence of events for Christ'sResurrection proceeds from outside to inside the rainbow

picture.

B LA CK - Death, Buried (Matt 27:60; Mk 15:46; Lk 23:53,

55; Jn 19:41-42; Acts 13:29; 1 Cor 15:4)

RED - Earth: Resurrection body comes out of the grave (Matt28:1-10; Mk 16:1-6; Lk 24:2-6; Jn 20:1-17) A red Sunrise symbolizes identification with the Earth, which is symbolized by red.The Sunrise symbolizes the relation of the Resurrection body to the Earth ( 1Corinthians 15:41-49 )

1 Corinthians 15:41-42 41 There is one glory of the Sun, and another glory of the Moon, and another glory of the stars; for star differs from star in glory. 42 So also is the resurrection of the dead.It is sown in corruption, it is raised an incorruption;

The Sun symbolizes the Lord Jesus Christ, and the stars symbolize individual believers in resurrection bodies. So also it is written, ³The first man, Adam, became a living soul.´ The lastAdam became a life-giving spirit. (1 Corinthians 15:45)



Adam came from the Earth. Both Adam and Earth are symbolized by red. Adam became a living soul, which means he had human life. Jesus Christ, the Last Adam,came from Heaven and became a "life-giving spirit." The first man is out from the Earth, made of earth; the second man is out fromHeaven. (1 Corinthians 15:47) Adam in his human body was made of earth (dust), but the Lord Jesus Christ in HisResurrection Body was spiritual and associated with Heaven. 1 Corinthians 15:48-49 48 As the dust of the earth, such are those who are of earthly origin; and as that whichis Heavenly, such also are those who are of Heavenly origin. 49 And just as we have

borne the image of the earthly ( human body ), we shall also bear the image of theHeavenly ( Resurrection body ). The human body is made of the dust of the earth and symbolized by red. TheResurrection body rises above the Earth to Heaven. Jesus Christ received the firstResurrection body, and Christians will receive Resurrection bodies like Christ's later.The Resurrection body is spiritual and created for living in Heaven.

O R A NGE - Resurrection body separates from the grave, or Earth, and rises intoHeaven

a. Jesus Christ - Resurrection (Matt 28:6-7; Mk 16:6; Lk 24:6; Jn 2:22; 20:9; Act2:24-27, 32; 3:15; 4:10; 10:40-41; 13:30-37; Rom 4:24-25; 6:4; 8:11; 1 Cor 15:4, 12-20); Ascension (Mk 16:19; Lk 24:51; Jn 20:17; Act 1:2, 9-11; 2:34; Rom 8:34; Eph4:8-10; 1 Ti 3:16)

b. Church (1 Cor 6:14; 15:36, 42, 50-52; 2 Cor 4:14; 1 Thess 4:16-17) c. Old Testament saints (Isa 26:19; Ezek 37:12-14; Dan 12:2; Hos 13:14; Jn 5:28-

29; 11:24) Jesus Christ received His Resurrection body on the third day after the Crucifixion. Herose from the tomb before dawn. Later He ascended to Heaven and was seated at theright hand of the Throne of God. Orange symbolizes the Resurrection body risingfrom the Earth and going into Heaven. The Church will receive Resurrection bodiesat the Rapture.

in a moment, in the blinking of an eye, at the last trumpet; for the trumpet will sound,and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. (1 Corinthians

15:52) Old Testament saints and Tribulational martyrs will receive Resurrection bodies at theSecond Advent. And Millennial believers will receive Resurrection bodies at the endof the Millennium.

YE LLOW - Resurrection Life, glory (Jn 17:5, 24; 1 Cor 15:40-44; Col 3:4; Phil 3:21;1 Pet 1:21; 4:13; 1 Ti 3:16)



The Baptism of the Holy Spirit identifies the believer with the Resurrected Christ(Eph 2:6; Col 2:12; 3:1)

Resurrection Life is one of the seven Spirits of life from the Heavenly Control Room .Resurrection Life is a new kind of life that differs from human soul life.

The Resurrection body has glory. It emanates light. The glory of the Resurrection body is Light production from God. There is glory associated with Salvation in ahuman body, although it is invisible to most people. The glory of the Resurrection

body, however, will be highly visible just as will be the glory of Christ's Resurrection body ( John 17:24; 1 Peter 1:21; 4:13 ), which radiates the glory of the Father (Heb.1:3). Resurrection bodies differ from each other in glory ( 1 Corinthians 15:40-44 ).There will be clothing for the Resurrection body that sets winner believers apart andreveals eternal rewards (Rev 3:4, 18).

GREEN - Happiness (1 Pet 4:13), Blessing (Eph 1:20-23; Eph 4:8, 10; Phil 2:9; Heb1:3-13; 8:1; 12:2)

Triumphal procession (Eph 4:8; Col 2:15)

There will be great Happiness when the Church is resurrected to meet Christ in HisResurrection body. Jesus Christ has great Happiness in His Resurrection body (Heb12:2), and He received great blessing in His Resurrection body. He was seated at theright hand of the Throne of God (Eph 1:20-23). He received the spoils from Hisvictory on the Cross (Isa 53:12; Eph 4:8, 10), which He can distribute to Church Age

believers. He received a new title of royalty (Phil 2:9). And He became the HighPriest of the Church (Heb 8:1).

B LU E - Righteousness (Psa 89:14; 96:13; Jer 23:5-6; Acts 17:31) a. Robe of Righteousness (Isa 61:10)

b. Resurrection of the Righteous (Lk 14:14; Act 24:15)

The Lord Jesus Christ in Resurrection body will Judge the world from the Throne of David with Righteousness. Those who belong to Christ will also have Righteousnessin Resurrection bodies (Lk 14:14; Act 24:15) and will be clothed in robes of Righteousness (Isa 61:10).

I ND I G O - Covering, Clothing (Matt 17:2; Mk 9:3; Lk 9:29; Rev 1:13; 19:13, 16),Eternal Security (Jn 10:28)

a. Bride of Christ (Eph 5:27; Rev 19:7-8) b. Believer's resurrection clothing (2 Cor 5:1-4; 1 Pet 1:8; Rev 3:4-5; 19:14)



The sequence of events for Salvation proceeds from outside toinside the rainbow picture.

B LA CK - Spiritual Death (Gen 2:17; Eph 2:1, 5; Col 2:13) The spiritually dead person is identified with darkness, assymbolized by the color black.

RED - Blood of Christ; Redemption (Col 1:13-14; Eph 1:7; 1Pet 1:18-19; Heb 9:12) The person's sins were all paid for on the Cross (Redemption), as symbolized by thecolor red. Red also symbolizes the Blood of Christ, which is His substitutionaryspiritual death for the sins of the world. Red symbolizes the Holy Spirit beginning theSalvation and Sanctification process (Heb 10:10, 14, 29; 13:12; 1 Pet 1:2). The HolySpirit identifies the believer with the issue of the sins that were paid for on the Cross.Looking back to the Cross is called Retroactive Positional Truth (Rom 6:3-4). Next,the believer receives forgiveness of sins (Heb 10:17-18).

O R A NGE - Sanctification process - separation from world, consecration to God(Acts 26:18) When the person believes in Jesus Christ, he receives Salvation. The Sanctification

process at Salvation separates the believer from the world of darkness and death andconsecrates the person to Jesus Christ. This is symbolized by the color orange. All of the colors in sequence symbolize additional aspects of the Sanctification process.

YE LLOW - Eternal Life (Jn 3:16; 5:24; Rom 6:23); Light (Jn 1:4; Eph 5:8; Col 1:12;1 Thess 5:5; 1 Pet 2:9); Jesus Christ Light (John 8:12; 9:5; 12:46) The Holy Spirit provides Spiritual regeneration (Tit 3:5) and Eternal Life to live withGod forever. This is symbolized by the color yellow. The Baptism of the Holy Spiritenters the person into union with Christ, which is called Positional Truth and includesPositional Sanctification (1 Cor 12:13; Gal 3:27; Col 2:12; 1 Pet 3:21). The believer enters the Kingdom of the Light of God and receives glory (Jn 17:22; 1 Cor 11:7; 2Thess 2:12, 14; Heb 2:10; 1 Pet 1:8; 4:14; 5:10). Just as Christ received aResurrection body, the believer will also be raised in glory as symbolized by yellow(1 Cor 15:40-43).

GREEN - Happiness (Matt 5:2-12; Lk 15:7); Blessing (Eph 1:3; 1 Pet 1:3) Next, the color green symbolizes the Happiness of God and the Angels over theSalvation of the individual. Green also symbolizes the manifold blessings bestowedupon the individual believer, who is entered into union with Christ. Blessings areallocated to the individual for Time and Eternity. They include the promise of



Using the rainbow picture for marriage, the sequence of eventsfor Sanctification in Marriage proceeds from outside to insidethe rainbow picture. Holy matrimony is symbolized by theWhite in the center of the rainbow picture.

B LA CK - Spiritual death and darkness of an unbeliever. Marriage of a Christian and unbeliever is unsanctified (2 Cor 6:14-15; 1 Thess 5:5). A Christian should not marry anunbeliever.

RED - Marriage is for humans only, one man and one woman (Gen 1:27; 5:2; Matt19:4) Based upon the precedent of the first marriage in the Garden, Adam, which meansred, came from the Earth, which was symbolized by red. Since the woman came fromAdam, and the marriage took place on the Earth, the color red is the beginning of thesanctification process for marriage. It follows that marriage is not for angels (Matt22:30; Mk 12:25). They are not earthly creatures. Marriage is for believers andunbelievers, although unbelievers are not bound by the Bible. It is a divine institutionfor the human race.

O R A NGE - Forsaking all others (1 Cor 7:4) a. Fornication violates the divine design for marriage before marriage.

b. Adultery violates the marriage bounds in marriage.

YE LLOW - Light, Glory (1 Cor 11:7); new life together as a corporate system a. The Sun symbolizes the man, and Moon symbolizes the woman.

b. Marriage is a new life together in which the couple advance together as acorporate system. The corporate relationship is different from two individuals. God

provides a life for the couple together - i. e. "we". c. The husband has authority and the wife must obey and respect him (Eph 5:22,

33; Col 3:18; Titus 2:5; 1 Pet 3:1). He leads her spiritually, and they advance together in the Spiritual Life.

GREEN - Happiness, Blessing a. The wedding celebration is always a time of happiness (SOS 3:11; 5:1; Isa 62:5;

Jer. 33:11; Matt 22:1-14). b. Sex is God's special gift for happiness in Marriage. c. God blesses Marriage, especially between Right Man and Right Woman. d. Even the unbeliever can be happy in Marriage (Eccl 9:9).

B LU E - Right Man - Right Woman Right Man - Right Woman is the basis for Marriage. God creates the Right Woman



for the Right Man per the precedent in the Garden (Gen 2:22; 1 Cor 11:9). Divinedesign is based on God's Righteousness. However, since Marriage is for the humanrace, God will still allow the marriage of couples who are not Right Man - RightWoman.

I ND I G O - Covering, Consummation, Security The married couple sleep under one blanket (Ruth 3:9) and under one roof.

He said, "Who are you?" And she answered, "I am Ruth your maid. Spread your wing(of your robe ) over your maid because you are a redeemer." (Ruth 3:9)

Sex seals the Marriage bond and consummates the marriage. Two become one flesh.The betrothal was usually a legal contract, but marriage began with sex. The husband is the protector of the wife. The security that he provides extends to

providing food, clothing, and shelter (Gen 3:19; Jn 14:2-3).

VIOL ET - Justice of God, who personally Judges all marriage issues (Heb 13:4) The Lord Jesus Christ performed the first wedding ceremony (Gen 2:22-24) andinitiated the Divine Institution of Marriage for the human race (Matt 19:4-6). The

precedent in the Garden has never changed. The Lord is the only One who canauthorize a marriage (Matt 19:6; Mk 10:9).

a. No priest, rabbi, pastor, church, judge, or anyone else can authorize a marriage, per the Bible.

The requirement for a priest to officiate a wedding in the Christian Church began with the decree on Matrimony of the Council of Trent #24 on February 11,

1563, Day 42, for Baal, the enemy of Marriage. The council was an anti-Reformationcouncil. The traditional vows date back to the first Book of Common Prayer (1549) of

the Anglican Church. b. A pastor should not waste his time performing weddings (Acts 6:2-4; 2 Tim

2:3-4). c. No one except God can dissolve a Marriage (Matt 19:6; Mk 10:9). d. Death of either spouse ends a marriage (Rom 7:2-3; 1 Cor 7:39). e. Adultery violates marriage (Ex 20:14; Rom 7:3; Heb 13:4). f. Marriage laws were removed from the theocracy of Israel (Laws of

Establishment) by the Lord Jesus Christ during the Gospel period (Jn 8:1-11). In theChurch Age God personally judges all Marriage issues (Heb 13:4).

WHI TE - Holy matrimony, sanctification (Eph 5:26; 1 Thess 4:3-7; Heb 13:4; Rev19:8) The love of a husband for his wife is symbolized by the color white, and white alsosymbolizes sanctification.



25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself as a substitute for her; 26 that having purified her , He might sanctify her by the washing of water by thecommunicated Word ( gospel ), (Ephesians 5:25-26)

The husband must sanctify his wife through Eclipse Testing on the road to SpiritualRapport. Christ went to the Cross to provide Sanctification for the Church, HisBride. Marriage of Right Man and Right Woman symbolizes PositionalSanctification, where the man symbolizes Christ, and the woman symbolizes theChurch. In Marriage, the man leads or reverts and the woman follows or reacts (1Tim. 5:6, 13). Rejection of Salvation and the Spiritual Life leads to death. Deathends the Marriage and RM-RW relationship. Carnality (lack of sanctification)destroys the Marriage. 1 Thessalonians 4:4-5 4 Each of you learn to possess his own wife by means of sanctification and honor. 5

For God has not called us for immorality, but into sanctification. Spiritual Rapport is the ultimate sanctification of the believer in this life. Promotionto Spiritual Rapport may lead to blessing or cursing of the Marriage or RM-RWrelationship. Abraham and Sarah had blessing. However, the wife and friends of Jobwere cursed. And when Jacob was promoted to Spiritual Rapport (Gen 35:9-15), hisRight Woman, Rachel, died the sin unto death (Gen 35:19). Spiritual Rapport cannotcoexist with carnality. Holiness destroys the carnal, as per the Tabernacle, whereviolation of procedures meant instant death. Spiritual Rapport is consecration to Godand separation from the world; therefore, a carnal partner may die the sin unto death.

F aith A pplication

D ivine G ood Production

Colors are part of creation. They are also part of the Plan of God. When the meaningsof the colors are understood, then faith-application will take on new meaning. Thestage of life will be portrayed in living color. Of course, the stage lights can only beenseen by the believer who is walking in the light (1 John 1:7). This is only possible bymeans of the filling of the Holy Spirit (Eph. 5:18; 1 John 1:9).

Wa rning Ag a inst Leg a lism

The only production that counts in this life is from grace. Attempts to whitewash thedevil's world are legalistic. Our Lord Jesus Christ referred to such people aswhitewashed tombstones:



Matthew 23:27 ³Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you arelike whitewashed tombs which on the outside appear beautiful, but inside theyare full of dead men¶s bones and all uncleanness.

The one who attempts to paint his own world or judge the works of others is engagedin legalism.

M ea ning of the R a inbow

After the flood God placed a rainbow in the sky to symbolize the Noahic Covenantthat He made with mankind. He promised never again to destroy all flesh by water (Gen. 9:15). The significance of the rainbow following the deluge is that itsymbolized the end of judgment. It still means the same thing today.

The rainbow also symbolizes all of the aspects of the sanctification process, asillustrated by the colors of re-creation, the Cross, and Salvation. God is Holy, andthose who come into His presence must also be holy, which means sanctified.

J oseph's Long-Sleeved Co a t

Joseph's "coat of many colors" is not found in the original Hebrew but comes from theSeptuagint and Vulgate, which are not as accurate. The Hebrew k ethoneth

passim (Genesis 37:3, 23; 2 Samuel 13:18) was a long coat with sleeves. "This wasan upper coat reaching to the wrists and ankles, such as noblemen and kings'daughters wore." 1

Conclusion

The root meanings of the colors of the rainbow in scripture is the basis for recognizingthe beauty of God's grace production. The sequence of colors in the rainbow matchesthe production of the seven days of re-creation, and everything in creation conforms tothe Holiness, or Sanctification, of God. The rainbow is produced by sanctification of white light, and all of creation conforms to the colors of the rainbow.

Light is one of the keys to divine revelation. Where there is light, there is God; but thetrue interpretation of that light is only possible by means of faith. Faith perception

must precede faith-application. Colors can only be understood by means of accurateapplication of doctrine to experience. Those who attempt to understand the meaningof colors apart from grace will not succeed. For those who "walk in the light," colorsemphasize and highlight divine good production.

As the believer walks in the light, the Plan of God provides an encapsulatedenvironment. The believer on the stage of life is surrounded by the production of the



Plan of God. Everything on the stage of life is color coded, numerically coded, andthe production of the Protocol Plan of God by means of the work of the Holy Spirit.The stage of life is guarded by angels. Nothing enters or exits without the approval of the Director of Human History, the Lord Jesus Christ. When evil enters the stage, itenters under the Justice of God, which means it is separated (e.g. into Cosmic,Ecumenical, and Political elements) and color coded appropriately.

Every scene of Life has meaning in the fulfillment of the Plan of God in the life of the believer. Everything is integrated in each scene to communicate the meaning clearlyto the believer who has divine viewpoint from Bible Doctrine circulating in the streamof consciousness. God is not the author of confusion. And the colors in the scenesare always consistent with the definition from the Word of God. Of course, colorsalone are only a small part of the meaning; but when combined with all the other component parts, they add a vivid artistic portrayal of the production of the Plan of God in the life of the believer.

It was a late sunny afternoon and when I stepped out, it had just stopped raining.
