The vessels of the title above are human and space is "inner" space; ie, the world of reality; the spiritual world of which this visible tangible world-of-the-senses is but a mirror image of.
These vessels are few and far between and are never understood by their contemporaries. To their contemporaries they are heretics.
Like the space explorers of this modern age, they are specially trained and set aside for their work. They give up all things for the sake of the ONE Who has called them and set them aside. They speak OF God and FOR God. They have appeared from time to time and in various places throughout history and many individuals today have discovered their writings and the biographies of their lives.
Many of these were connected with the roman religious system, seeming to believe they could change it from within. Much of their "God seeing" was in response to ecstatic or rapturous experiences which occurred in their lives. In a sense they were "children of their time".
In this day, God is doing something different. The "seeing"of the vessels today is not based on ecstatic/rapturous experiences which affect the body and psychological systems-emotions, etc, but is by revelation, an inner seeing or understanding which comes through the mind so it can be explained or written down. This is the "New Jerusalem which comes down out of heaven from God" of Rev 3:12.
These vessels are not affiliated with nor do they belong to any religious system or denominational group, for God has bypassed those groups/systems for they have no Word, but a dead word. These vessels are on the outside (as John the immerser was on the outside-a type of Elijah)calling those within to come out, for God has written ICHABOD over the doors of all such systems and their trappings. Their "preachers" and "pastors" are not called and if anyone "gets saved" under "their ministry", it is in spite of it, not because of it.
Our elder brother Paul was one of these vessels. God gave him much revelation into His mysteries and the purposes of the Christ consciousness or the "New Creation". Millions are still arguing over his words today and millions still stumble and twist his meanings.
2Pet3:15-16:"Even as our beloved brother
Paul also according to the wisdom given him
has written unto you, as also in all (his)letters
speaking in them concerning these things,-in
which letters are some things hard to be under-
stood, which the uninstructed and unstable
do wrest...."
They who have a religious background-bible school, seminary, denominational college, title before their name and alphabet soup after their name, as well as those sitting in the pews who listen to such-cannot grasp spiritual things, because the religious mind (symbolized in scripture as earthly Jerusalem and Babylon)is: "I know it already" and "You are of the devil and I'm not listening to you".
Paul's background before Christ was filled with the doctrine of the pharisees. After Christ apprehended him he considered it all "dung"-modern term BS. He threw it away that he might know Christ and the power of His resurrection and the fellowship of His sufferings and be made conformable unto His death. He was given all this and more. He was given revelation-the unfolding of the mystery of God-and spent his whole life trying to explain it and refuting those who couldn't grasp it and fought against it.
Malachi4:5-6"Lo! I am sending unto you
Elijah the prophet-before the coming of the
great and awful day of Yahweh; and he will
bring back the heart of the fathers unto the
children and the heart of the children unto
their fathers,-lest I smite the land (or earth)
with utter destruction" Math.17:11"And he
(Jesus) answering said, Elijah indeed comes
first and will restore all things".
The vessels of this age have the spirit of Elijah upon them. He/they shall restore truth to the Body/Bride/Assembly, which has been stolen by the demonic, feminized, Jezebel, antichrist, reason based, emotional sentimentalistic world view, pervasive in this world system. This "Oh dear! I feel your pain!" claptrap. The spirit of Elijah which is strong male, comes forth at the same time as "maleized", domineering, dike female.
Land and earth are symbolic of female, as heaven is of male. The "smiting" comes on those males who have become feminized as well as the females who demand the males "see it their way". They don't realize it, but their demands are a "seeking of male approval". "My husband says it's ok, so it's his fault".
Jer44:19"And though we (women)are burning
incense to the queen of heavens(present day
Maryolatry, gaiaism, goddessism), and pouring
out to her drink offerings, IS IT WITHOUT OUR
MEN (without our husbands approval) that we
have made to her sacrificial cakes as images of
her and poured out to her drink offerings?"
(read Jer44 for the whole story)
The smiting is not God "zapping" them, but is consequences which come upon those who hold and push the doctrine. It's "automatic". Their "judgment" is according to their works.
