INTRODUCTION
Jer. 52: 12 is prophecy for today, --as ZION is in Babylon, Mic 4; 10—it happened on a 10th day of 5th month----on such a day, LORD rejected ELDERS OF PCG, Eze. 20:1 (Eze 20:1-And it came to pass in the seventh year, in the fifth month, the tenth day of the month, that certain of the elders of Israel came to enquire of the LORD, God rejected them, vs. 3, and said-- 4 Wilt thou judge them, son of man, wilt thou judge them? cause them to know the abominations of their fathers:
And they were allowed by God to be taken to Babylon --Jer 52:12 Now in the fifth month, in the tenth day of the month, which was the nineteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, came Nebuzaradan, captain of the guard, which served the king of Babylon, into Jerusalem,
And in Ezra’s days, they returned on fifth month, Ezr. 7: 9, so we fast for captives to return by BLOOD OF COVENANT, Zec. 9: 11, for EVERLASTING COVENANT has to be made shortly, during PCG times, Eze. 16: 60-63
AND Gerald Flurry taught SET YOUR AFFECTIONS ON THINGS ABOVE!
Gerald Flurry mentioned in “Key of David” program of Col 3: 2
Col 3: 2-Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.
Col 3:1-If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.
· Then they are to KNOW HOW TO SET minds on THINGS ABOVE!
LORD had decreed that gentiles to show the MERCY they received to ISRAEL, Rom. 11; 31,
Rom. 11; 26 –And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:
27 –For this is My covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins.
· Therefore we fast for the CAUSE OF LORD in ZION , as required in Zec. 8: 19.
Gerald Flurry said SET YOUR AFFECTIONS ON THE THINGS OF ABOVE
Had the church really done so, read in this article
How SPIRIT teaches!
Col 3:1,2—was mentioned by Gerald Flurry
· Read the counsels of God when He makes heavenly men as spiritual men, 1 Co 15:44-57, through His Grace (GRACE being HIM tasting death for everyone, Heb. 2; 9, then WORD OF GOD requires to bear ‘DYING LORD IN US”
2 Co 4; 10-- Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body.
· JESUS CHRIST raised from DEAD by ALMIGHTY POWER.
· He died being CRUCIFIED and then HE raised to LIFE ---ETERNAL LIFE, in heaven!
Rom. 6: 2--How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?
3-Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?
4-Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.
Eph 1:20 -Which he wrought in Christ, when He raised him from the dead, and set him at His own right hand in the heavenly places,--ALMIGHTY raised CHRIST and set Him in heavenly places.
Eph 2:6-And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:--when GENTILES received faith of Abraham, and received SPIRIT, Gal. 3; 14, it is BY SPIRIT of BAPTIZM, given through Acts. 2: 38, 39 (those of FAR, vs. 39 are gentiles) so to serve CHRIST our LORD, gentiles were given SPIRIT as HIS MERCY, Rom. 11; 31, through ministry of SPIRIT, 2 Co 4: 1,2, 2 Co 3: 6-9, we are to show THE MERCY we received to ISRAEL through SPIRIT (That is SPIRIT is the GIVEN MERCY---for all things are made known for SECOND COVENANT is through HOLY SPIRIT, to LIVE according to SPIRIT of GOD,
1 Pe 4; 6--live according to God in the spirit.
SO HEAVENLY men LIVE to serve HEAVENLY ALMIGHTY through SPIRITUAL BLESSINGS in heavenly places in Christ:
· Eph 1:3 -Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:
Therefore, SET YOUR AFFECTIONS ON THE THINGS OF ABOVE
Fifth month fast is in view of present day captivity of JERUSALEM and Judah, Jer 52:12-15, LORD sent them to Babylon, Mic 4:10 as ministry (Levi) are to be corrected(Read in No.1057)—Kings in history of ISRAEL had sinned as Jeroboam son of Nebat—and church now repeats their sins, LORD condemns them, Isa 7:9,
In prophecy of Isa 7: 9,
Isa 7: 9--And the head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is Remaliah’s son. If ye will not believe, surely ye shall not be established.
In No. 1046, Isa 7 was explained-- ISRAEL would not be established unless they believe in the WARNING in Isa 7.9 (explained in No. 1046)
Isa 7:9 -And the head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is Remaliah’s son. If ye will not believe, surely ye shall not be established.
· Pekah the son of Remaliah became king of ISRAEL, 2 Kin 16. 27 and committed sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat who made Israel sin, vv 27-28 –
Isa 7; 9 makes us understand that ISRAEL was sinning as Jeroboam!—so PCG has to believe how church had sinned as Jeroboam and the fact that LORD had made Jeroboam repeating in GOD’S CHURCH (PCG broke COVENANT under the sin of Jeroboam, PCG sinned as in Eze.44; 7) as explained in No. 1046 .
In Mic 6: 16 we see--Omri bought Samaria and followed sins of Jeroboam—1 Ki 16:23-26, ----he was followed by kings of ISRAEL –Mic 6; 16 shows prophecy for today--- followed by present day ruler in house of God where judgments began, 1 Pe 4; 17
Mic 6: 16- For the statutes of Omri are kept,
Present ruler (of PCG) committed Jeroboam sin in Eze 44:7 (Read in No. 1010 in www.restoringcaptivity.com)
Therefore PCG should examine to REPENT AND CORRECT their SERVICE, Read in 1046,1047 www.restoringcaptivity.com
God creates heavenly men through CHRIST as Abraham desired a heavenly Country.
The only man died and raised is CHRIST as Last Adam, 1 Co 15; 44-57, had taught believers how He raised to heaven having KEPT every word, Lu 4:4, Mt. 4; 4, according to prophecy of Deut. 8: 3, then being crucified on His cross.
· God is perfect so every heavenly man is made perfect in JESUS CHRIST, having ‘CHRIST in YOU’, Col 1:26-29 being crucified with Him “by WORDS, the SPIRIT” teaching us CHRIST as LAMB grants heavenly clothes through Riches of His death and resurrection to enter heavenly church—Therefore set your mind on those things, Col 3:1,2
This article shows from word of God a summary of things we are to set our minds.
LAMB gives white linen, Rev. 7:14-17 –and in Gal 2:19-21, we see Paul was crucified with CHRIST ---so he died in SPIRIT and found CHRIST living in PAUL!
· Paul said he died daily, 1 Co 15: 31,Which means he wore white linen daily and that is how he was blessed to write teachings of CHRIST through GOD’S SPIRIT !, He began the ministry of SPIRIT, COVENANT and of RIGHTEOUSNESS , 2 Co 3: 6-9, and he teaches gentiles, 2 Ti 1:11,8-10.
· Therefore, we gentiles WRITE SPIRITUAL things, which HE REQUIRES in SECOND COVENANT, Eze. 16: 60-63, Heb. 10: 7-10.
Captives come out through Blood of COVENANT, Zec 9:11
Although God had forsaken Jacob, and He builds them, Isa 2:1-9, for He is mindful of His EVERLASTING COVENANT He made with ISRAEL and All people.
Fasting and prayers are essential in His Land—David’s example--2 Sam 12:15,16,19-23---Some other examples--Ge 5:29, 6:17, 9:13-17, 2 Ki 13:23
We see some faithful kings in history of Judah prayed to God repenting with sack cloth, 2 Ki 19:1-3,15-21,Ezra, Nehemiah, did so, read in books of Ezra and NEHEMIAH---captives today come out—Ps. 126
Therefore when captives become mindful of things above they come out of captivity because of BLOOD OF COVENANT, Zec. 9; 11 .
When they receive a worthy PASSOVER –they would know that they receive PASSOVER blood which would make them heavenly men, ready to meet the LORD in the air—therefore 1 Thes 4:27 takes place for all to assemble as mountain of LORD, Rev. 21;10 they come down as wife, Rev. 21:1-3 to serve God, Rom. 7:4
When we fast and pray, LORD makes the way, Zec 12:10-14, 8:19 , joy and gladness in JERUSALEM and Judah.
Wonderful Counselor brought Pharaoh, Assyrian, Nebuchadnezzar , Cyrus, Tyre, Pekah, Omri, Josiah, Hezekiah, Sarah, Hagar, many others who served PURPOSE OF GOD to create SECOND COVENANT and false service was shown by false prophets, false Christs, when WCG FELL AWAY, 2 Thes 2: 1-7 –
· Falling away was followed by DAY OF LORD!
The SPIRIT OF GOD says TRUTHS?
· God’s people would know No one ---- but GOD in CHRIST, Col 2: 2, 9, ALMIGHTY in LAMB, Rev. 21: 22, 23, who saves people of ISRAEL and the earth He created!
All Praise to God of ISRAEL who saves the world!
It is time for PCG of ISRAEL, Rom. 9: 4-6, TO UNDERSTAND THE ONE TRUE GOD, Zec.14:9, to prepare for Ezekiel Temple Ordinances, Eze. 43: 18-27!
Testimony of JESUS CHRIST the SPIRIT of prophecy, Rev. 19: 10, He testified of ISRAEL His chosen, as a power of beasts!
Mountain (or Hill) of Bashan is where LORD
Will DWELL FOREVER
(AV)—Ps.68: 15-The hill of God is as the hill of Bashan; an high hill as the hill of Bashan.16 -Why leap ye, ye high hills? this is the hill which God desireth to dwell in; yea, the LORD will dwell in it for ever.
(NKJV)--Ps. 68: 15-A mountain of God is the Mountain of Bashan; a mountain of many peaks is the mountain of Bashan.
16-why do you fume with envy, you mountain of many peaks?-This is the mountain which God desireth to dwell in; yes, the LORD will dwell in it for ever.---so Bashan is none other than ZION of JERUSALEM!
It is those of Bashan who caused CHRIST to be at His Cross!
The Psalm which says of DEATH OF CHRIST --Ps. 22: 12-- Many bulls have compassed me: strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round. 14 I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.
BULLS means they are BEASTS who DO NOT UNDERSTAND, Ps. 49:20—they DO NOT UNDERSTAND the SECOND COVENANT of LORD ALMIGHTY!
They became A BEAST POWER, Rev. 17, in land of God!
CHRIST became a LAMB—to save them--
To save the RICH Laodiceans, Isa53: 9(1ST FRUITS to be saved 1st)
They as 1st fruits of SECOND COVENANT!
Isa 53:7 -He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a LAMB to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth.—LAMB was not helped by His people of ISRAEL to make a seed for SECOND COVENANT!—so He was AFFLICTED!
CHRIST came to make sons (His seed) by Gal. 3: 26-29!—
8 -He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? for he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken.---LAMB should prolong His life for HIS ETERNAL LIFE—could He be alone in His church?
PCG was made ‘LAND OF LIVING, Eze. 16: 6-Live; yea, I said unto thee when thou wast in thy blood, Live PCG began their own works, they cut off the need of CHRIST, the HEAD OF CHURCH!
Therefore LAMB made HIS GRAVE with them--9 -And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in His death; because he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.—
Rich Laodiceans are in PITS, as nations, Eze. 32:31, ministry slain, Eze. 9, Amos 9:1- I saw the Lord standing upon the altar: and he said, Smite the lintel of the door, that the posts may shake: and cut them in the head, all of them; and I will slay the last of them with the sword:
LAMB sees HIS SEED for SECOND COVENANT by offering HIS LIFE –
10 - Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in his hand.
First fruits are justified by HIS SACRIFICE--11-He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by His knowledge shall My righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities.—CHRIST knew how to justify them, to MAKE THEM HEAVENLY! Then they could SET THEIR AFFECTIONS on things ABOVE!
12 -Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and He bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
· SO LAMB who had NO SIN in HIM, 1 Jn. 3; 5, died for HIS PEOPLE when they became wicked against Him!
So it is the BULLS of BASHAN that encircled Him at His Cross
THE BULLS of Bashan of Ps. 22: 12 who are AT EASE in ZION
SERVE AS Samaria
Am 6:1-Woe to them that are at ease in Zion, and trust in the mountain of Samaria, which are named chief of the nations, to whom the house of Israel came!---the CHIEF is PCG to whom SERVICE of ISRAEL is given in a COVENANT, Rom. 9: 4-6.
Amos 4; 1-- Hear this word, ye kine of Bashan, that are in the mountain of Samaria, which oppress the poor,
PCG service as Samaria
Isa 7: 9--And the head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is Remaliah’s son. If ye will not believe, surely ye shall not be established.
In No. 1046, Isa 7 was explained! Read in www.restoringcaptivity.com
PART 1
FAST OF FIFTH
Ezra began to come from Babylon with people on such a day--
Ezr 7:9 For upon the first day of the first month began he to go up from Babylon, and on the first day of the fifth month came he to Jerusalem, according to the good hand of his God upon him.
10 -For Ezra had prepared his heart to seek the law of the LORD, and to do it, and to teach in Israel statutes and judgments.
12 -Artaxerxes, king of kings, ----
13- I make a decree, that all they of the people of Israel, and of his priests and Levites, in my realm, which are minded of their own freewill to go up to Jerusalem, go with thee.
· Similarly, we fast on 5th month for the RETURN OF CAPTIVES by BLOOD OF COVENANT, Zec. 9: 11, they are to return from four corners of earth, Isa 11; 9-12, to seek BLOOD OF COVENANT, to come out of captivity, Zec. 9: 11.
Jer 1:3 It came also in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, unto the end of the eleventh year of Zedekiah the son of Josiah king of Judah, unto the carrying away of Jerusalem captive in the fifth month.
· Jer. 1; 3 is prophecy repeating in PCG, as history repeats in TRUE ISRAEL, Rom. 9; 4-6 (as explained in No. 1055)
· For LORD sees that present day ISRAEL as PCG is performing the SAME SINS ISRAEL and Judah committed in history!
Jer. 1. 3-- Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah—is ELIAKIM
PCG leader was prophesied to be ELIAKIM and SHEBNA
2Ch 36:4 -And the king of Egypt made Eliakim his brother king over Judah and Jerusalem, and turned his name to Jehoiakim
2Ki 23:34 And Pharaohnechoh made Eliakim the son of Josiah king in the room of Josiah his father, and turned his name to Jehoiakim,
· Josiah took counsel of Hilkiah---therefore Hilkiah was like a father to Josiah and Eliakim---
Isa 22:20 And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will call my servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah:
· Isa 22: 20-25 says of PCG performing having “KEY OF David” but responsibility removed in vs. 25!
Isa 36:3 -Then came forth unto him Eliakim, Hilkiah’s son, which was over the house, and Shebna the scribe,
· PCG leader wrote he had Shebna’s work—
Prophecies of SHEBNA fulfilled amidst PCG--
WHO IS SHEBNA?
Page 82—TP BOOKLET-para 4, 5
Quoting Isa.22:18--the chariots of thy glory shall be the shame of thy lord's house.
PAGE 84—TP booklet--the transfer of authority—para5---“According to these verses, I WAS GIVEN SHEBNA’S AUTHORITY---HIS PRIESTLY VESTMENTS”
TP BOOKLET-Page 83—para2—Gerald Flurry wrote---God will forcibly strip this end time Shebna of his office.
Jer 52:12 Now in the fifth month, in the tenth day of the month, which was the nineteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, came Nebuzaradan, captain of the guard, which served the king of Babylon, into Jerusalem,
13 And burned the house of the LORD, and the king’s house; and all the houses of Jerusalem, and all the houses of the great men, burned he with fire:-- 14 And all the army of the Chaldeans, that were with the captain of the guard, brake down all the walls of Jerusalem round about.
15 Then Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive certain of the poor of the people, and the residue of the people that remained in the city, and those that fell away, that fell to the king of Babylon, and the rest of the multitude.
· Those carried away (written in Jer. 52: 12-15) are to RETURN, Isa 11: 9-12, by BLOOD OF COVENANT, Zec. 9: 11!
· So we who love to serve GOD’S WORK, 1 Co 15: 58, perform these fasts for Judah and JERUSALEM, Zec. 8: 19!
LORD was angry with elders of PCG for their
SIN OF NOT STANDING FOR GOD when PCG broke
COVENANT at Bamah, Eze. 20; 29, according to Eze.44; 7
Eze 20:1 And it came to pass in the seventh year, in the fifth month, the tenth day of the month, that certain of the elders of Israel came to enquire of the LORD, and sat before me.
3 Son of man, speak unto the elders of Israel, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Are ye come to enquire of me? As I live, saith the Lord GOD, I will not be enquired of by you.
ALL FLESH, GENTILES are to have circumcised hearts to SERVE IN ALTAR of GOD ALMIGHTY, Eze. 44; 9.
Zec. 8: 9-15
Zec. 8: 13-15 says that LORD would do well to JERUSALEM and Judah, (just as in the days of “Jeroboam 2” the son of Joash, 2 Kin 14: 27)
Zec. 8: 13 -And it shall come to pass, that as ye were a curse among the heathen, O house of Judah, and house of Israel; so will I save you, and ye shall be a blessing: fear not, but let your hands be strong.
14 -For thus saith the LORD of hosts; As I thought to punish you, when your fathers provoked me to wrath, saith the LORD of hosts, and I repented not:
· Fathers’ times HE WAS ANGRY! But ISRAEL found favour in the time of Jeroboam 2, 2 Kin 14; 27 –today’s leader of PCG, (ISRAEL of Rom. 9; 4-6) is compared to “Jeroboam 2”---ISRAEL would be SAVED in the TIME OF PCG, Eze. 16: 60!
15 -So again have I thought in these days to do well unto Jerusalem and to the house of Judah: fear ye not.
· NOW AGAIN LORD would DO WELL unto JERUSALEM and Judah!
Therefore all who waits to enter HIS GLORIOUS CHURCH
Are to BE STRONG---
Zec. 9; 9 -Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Let your hands be strong, ye that hear in these days these words by the mouth of the prophets, which were in the day that the foundation of the house of the LORD of hosts was laid, that the temple might be built.—TESTIMONY of JESUS CHRIST is SPIRIT OF PROPHECY, Rev. 19; 10, SO HE BRINGS FORTH words He had given to prophets to come to pass!
10 For before these days there was no hire for man, nor any hire for beast; neither was there any peace to him that went out or came in because of the affliction: for I set all men every one against his neighbour.
11-But now I will not be unto the residue of this people as in the former days, saith the LORD of hosts.---we are to expect blessings!
12 -For the seed shall be prosperous; the vine shall give her fruit, and the ground shall give her increase, and the heavens shall give their dew; and I will cause the remnant of this people to possess all these things.
God had forsaken Jacob –Isa 2:1,5-9, 2:1-4 and made Judah as a woman in Labour, Isa 26:17, Isa 54:6 For the LORD hath called thee as a woman forsaken and grieved in spirit, and a wife of youth, when thou wast refused, saith thy God.
· PCG met in ZION on Jan 5th 2005, and hasted away as a woman in LABOR, Ps. 48: 1-6 (then ships of Tarshish was broken, Ps. 48: 7, by breaker, LORD leading them, Mic 2: 13), read Ps. 48; 4-6
Ps. 48: 4--For, lo, the kings were assembled, they passed by together.
5 -They saw it, and so they marvelled; they were troubled, and hasted away.
6 -Fear took hold upon them there, and pain, as of a woman in travail.
· LORD’S GRACE is tasting death for everyone, Heb. 2; 9---
· To redeem them they are to have faith by Grace, Rom. 4:16, to have riches of Grace, Eph. 2:7 (Riches of His death), and Riches of CHRIST, Eph. 3:8 in them , for those RICHES are heavenly clothes to enter heavenly church the mountain of ALMIGHTY CREATOR!
That mountain, Rev. 21:10 (formed when raised people meet the LORD in AIR, 1 Thes 4: 17) which is His bride, coming down from heaven, Rev. 21:1-3 ---it is the glorious church He establishes, Eph. 5:27
HAVING FAITH in THESE GOOD TIMES
We Fast and pray when CHRIST our LORD makes SUPPLICATIONS,
Zec. 12: 8-10
Zec. 12: 8--In that day shall the LORD defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that is feeble among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David shall be as God, as the angel of the LORD before them.
9 - And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.—LORD had portrayed Noah’s sons had multiplied as nations in four corners of earth, who fights HIM as GOG, Rev. 20; 8—
· LORD destroys them, for HE WOULD MAKE THEM BE BAPTIZED UNTO HIS DEATH, to be CRUCIFIED WITH HIM, Rom. 6; 3-7, to make them RIGHTEOUS, Rom. 6; 7-13, to SERVE HIM, then they would walk in JERUSALEM, Rev. 21; 24-26.
10- And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn.—HIS GRACE is HIS DEATH tasted for everyone, Heb. 2; 9---SPIRIT (THE WORDS, WORDS OF LIFE, Jn. 6; 63) ---has many functions---SPIRIT OF GRACE MAKES them LIVE IN NEWNESS OF LIFE, Rom. 6: 3-7, ---SO DEAD TO SIN, Rom. 6: 2, would RECEIVE LIFE from LAMB who was CRUCIFIED!
· It is written that they would SUFFER WITH HIM to be GLORIFIED WITH HIM, Rom. 8; 17. When children of ISRAEL were given INHERITANCE, during the time of Joshua, Jos 12: 7, 8 (vs. 8 says of mountains, valleys),
11--In that day shall there be a great mourning in Jerusalem, as the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon. Jos 12: 8 says of valleys, those lands were for ISRAEL, so ISRAEL SMOTE those kings, Jos 12; 1, vs. 7 too says of ISRAEL destroying nations on this side of Jordan, and One king was king of Megiddo, vs. 21—
There were other kings of nations, --LORD PICTURES the EMOTIONS OF ISRAEL in that history repeating WHEN LORD WINS those FIGHTING HIM NOW! (The Assyrian fights HIM, Isa 4; 25, 26, Pharaoh fights Him, Rom. 9: 17)
12 And the land shall mourn, every family apart; the family of the house of David apart, and their wives apart; the family of the house of Nathan apart, and their wives apart;--THE PEOPLE NOW, would understand the WONDERFUL WORK of GOD ALMIGHTY who was in CHRIST, to FORGIVE SINS, so that HE reconciles HIS WORLD TO HIMSELF, 2 Co 5; 19, making TRIBES OF ISRAEL as ONE IN HIS HAND, Eze. 39: 17!
13 -The family of the house of Levi apart, and their wives apart; the family of Shimei apart, and their wives apart;---MINISTRY of PCG and ISRAEL chosen who fell away would all understand, and MOURN when they KNOW THAT THEY HAD BEEN AGAINST THEIR LORD!
14 -All the families that remain, every family apart, and their wives apart.
Then captives LAUGH, Ps. 126.
Ps. 126: 1--When the LORD turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream.
2 -Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing: then said they among the heathen, The LORD hath done great things for them.
3 -The LORD hath done great things for us; whereof we are glad.
4 - Turn again our captivity, O LORD, as the streams in the south.
5 -They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.
6-He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.
Tears would turn to Joy!
PART 2—
Gerald Flurry taught SET YOUR AFFECTIONS ON THINGS ABOVE!
Gerald Flurry mentioned in “Key of David” program of Col 3: 2
Gerald Flurry mentioned in “Key of David” program of Col 3: 2
Col 3: 2-Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.
Col 3:1-If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.
To set your affection on things above, we are to know
HOW ALMIGHTY became IMMANUEL to be RISEN WITH CHRIST, Col 3: 1
For ONLY those who are RISEN WITH HIM are able to
SET your mind ON THINGS ABOVE!
Isa 7:14 -Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.
Eph 4:10 -He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that He might fill all things.)
Isa 9: 6--For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
GOD HAD SET HIS COUNSELS for us to SET OUR MIND on
THINGS ABOVE
When you interpret prophecies through scriptures, DAY STAR arise in hearts, 2 Pe 1; 19-20, that is CHRIST in our HEARTS, “CHRIST in us”. Prophecies lead to KNOW that GOD WAS IN CHRIST to RECONCILE the WORLD to HIMSELF, not imputing SIN ON THEM, 2 Co 5: 19—through the GOSPEL of “CHRIST in US”, Rom. 8: 10. (Reconcile the world means, GENTILES ALSO to be FELLOWHEIRS, through the GOSPEL, Eph. 3: 4-6----
· Counsel of GOD ALMIGHTY is that NO SINNERS could set their minds
On HIS HEAVENLY CHURCH, therefore HE TAKES AWAY SIN, by Rom. 6 baptizm!—
People are to PUT ON CHRIST by baptizm, to be faithful sons of Abraham, Gal. 3; 26-29---People of His are to BE FAITHFUL to HIS WORDS, if you do not have MIND OF CHRIST through HIS SPIRIT, you are NONE OF HIS, Rom. 8; 9, 10
Rom. 8: 9-- But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of His.---if you do honour Rom. 6 baptizm, you RECEIVE HOLY SPIRIT, Acts. 2; 38,39, Jn.1: 33, HOLY SPIRIT is LIFE giving words of God, HOLY SPIRIT explains how and what we should do TO HAVE OUR MINDS SET ON THINGS ABOVE, Col 3: 1, 2.
10 -And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. --
· When we have “CHRIST IN US” we have SPIRIT OF HIS, then we have LIFE in US, because CHRIST gives us HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS through baptizm, removing sins, Rom. 6; 3-13.
· We would have NEWNESS OF LIFE, Rom. 6: 3-7.
In other AGES, people did not know HOW
TO SET YOUR MIND on things ABOVE!
Testimony of God is JESUS CHRIST and HIM CRUCIFIED, 1 Co 2; 1, 2
Testimony of JESUS CHRIST is SPIRIT OF PROPHECY, Rev. 19: 10
· Prophecies explained by SPIRIT OF GOD (By Life giving Words of God, Jn. 6: 63) –LEADS to KINGDOM OF GOD, to serve in ARK OF Covenant, Rev. 11: 15, 19.
· CHRIST shed HIS BLOOD OF NEW COVENANT, to establish NEW and EVERLASTING COVENANT, granting them SALVATION!
And LORD counseled gentiles to be BOUND to ISRAEL, to make known of MYSTERY OF CHRIST--
Eph. 3: 4 -Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of CHRIST -------------5-Which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men, as it is now revealed unto his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit;------------6 -That the Gentiles should be fellowheirs, and of the same body, and partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel:
LORD had counseled GENTILES to be bound to ISRAEL
So that FALL OF ISRAEL should be RICHES OF GENTILES!
That is the COUNSEL to make ALL FLESH worship GOD ALMIGHTY
Which was promised to Noah, Gen.9: 13-17
Rom. 11: 7-What then? Israel hath not obtained that which he seeketh for; but the election hath obtained it, and the rest were blinded
12-Now if the fall of them be the riches of the world, and the diminishing of them the riches of the Gentiles; how much more their fulness?—when ISRAEL return from CAPTIVTY, they WOULD BE VERY FRUITFUL –their fulness would be FRUITFUL!
13 -For I speak to you Gentiles, inasmuch as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, I magnify mine office:--therefore PAUL magnified his office, HE IS TEACHER OF ISRAEL as WELL as of GENTILES, 2 Tim 1: 11.
When you SET YOUR AFFECTION on things ABOVE
People should BE RULED BY PEACE OF GOD
And HIS WORDS DWELL in you RICHLY in ALL WISDOM!
Col 3: 2-Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.
Col 3:1-If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.
15 -And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.
16 -Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.—GRACE is HIS DEATH that He tasted for everyone, Heb. 2; 9--
Here are a few words of CHRIST
Read in bible of the many instructions through HIS WISDOM
Jas 5:12 But above all things, my brethren, swear not, neither by heaven, neither by the earth, neither by any other oath: but let your yea be yea; and your nay, nay; lest ye fall into condemnation.
1Pe 4:8 -And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.
Col 3:14-And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness
3 Jn. 1: 11 -Beloved, follow not that which is evil, but that which is good. He that doeth good is of God: but he that doeth evil hath not seen God.
· So NO EVIL should be present in believers WHO SET THEIR MINDS ON THINGS ABOVE!
GOD SEALED BELIEVERS TO RECEIVE HIS SPIRIT
To be IN HEARTS
2Co 1:22 -Who hath also sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts
HE SEALED TRIBES---Re 7:3 -Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads.
IF SEAL OF GOD was NOT ON THEIR FOREHEADS, the SCORPIONS, Rev. 9: 3, would be HURT ---Re 9:4 -And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads.
· Who are these SCORPIONS of Rev. 9: 3?
Eze 2:6 And thou, son of man, be not afraid of them, neither be afraid of their words, though briers and thorns be with thee, and thou dost dwell among scorpions: be not afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their looks, though they be a rebellious house.
· Look, the SCORPIONS are those ministers with PCG LEADER as “son of man” of Ezekiel! (we do not forget, Gerald Flurry wrote he represent “SON OF MAN” of Ezekiel as he received MUCH REVELATIONS from book of Ezekiel!)
· Those SCORPIONS speak WORDS-- thou dost dwell among scorpions: be not afraid of their words,--
· Those SCORPIONS are rebellious, and LOOKS at “son of man”!!--- nor be dismayed at their looks, though they be a rebellious house.
· LORD speaks of MINISTRY of PCG, rebellious ministry, because they DO NOT KNOW WORD OF GOD, but know WORDS of H. W. Armstrong!
· They swear by words of H. W. Armstrong!
Gerald Flurry honouring them as ELI, wrote LAMB as NOT UNDERSTANDING REVELATIONS!
Gerald Flurry wrote of CHRIST the LAMB (on 18/ 5/ 2013—Mt 24 transcript in Key of David) that JESUS CHRIST is “just qualified to open the seals; ----He did not open it there, SO THAT THE MEN WOULD UNDERSTAND”!!!!!!!- THAT MEANS PCG LEADER could not SEE, READ-or BELIEVE THAT- CHRIST, the Lamb opened seals of Revelations, Rev. 5; 9, and started to PERFORM THEM as written in--Rev. 6: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 12—7: 17, 8: 1---and that CHRIST would establish HIS KINGDOM, Rev. 11: 15!
· Could we see PCG is fighting with LAMB saying LAMB opened seals only, but LAMB wins leaders as a beast power fighting HIM, Rev. 17, as written in Ps. 49: 20!
Read of prophecies of ELI fulfilling in PCG --1057 Prophecy for Eli fulfills as TESTIMONY of JESUS CHRIST is SPIRIT of PROPHECY Rev. 19. 10 quotes of Gerald Flurry say ALL EARS would tingle when you hear of fulfillment of 1 Sam 3. 12—read in www.restoringcaptivity.com
ISRAEL would be SAVED by LAMB
ALL THOSE WHO WERE SEALED in Rev. 7: 3 would GO THROUGH Great Tribulation for their OWN GOOD, for LAMB cleanses them, takes away their sins, Isa 53, and grant them WHITE LINEN, Rev. 7: 14-17.
Then THEY BECOME as virgins, AND HAVE FATHER’S NAME written on their foreheads, Rev. 14; 1—5.
Re 14:1 -And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father’s name written in their foreheads.
Re 22:4 -And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads.
· So through CLEANSING OF LAMB, they would have the FATHER’S NAME ON THEIR HEADS, and they ARE ABLE TO SET THEIR AFFECTION ON THINGS ABOVE!
PART 3—
GOD CREATED HEAVENLY MEN THROUGH CHRIST AS descendants of Abraham and fathers desired a heavenly country.
Abraham wanted a city whose builder and maker is God, Heb. 11:8-10.
Fathers died in faith—and they knew they were pilgrims of earth, vs. 13 , they desired a heavenly country, God not being ashamed to be called their God, prepared a City for them, Heb. 11:12-16—He prepares the HEAVENLY MOUNTAIN, Rev. 21; 10, mountain comes down as WIFE, NEW JERUSALEM, Rev. 21: 1-3.
Descendants should be heavenly men to come to heavenly church of God, Heb. 12; 22-25, as descendants of Abraham ---as heavenly men through CHRIST.
AS “HIS CHRIST ” Jn. 4:25, Lu 2:26, Rev. 11:15, --LORD and HIS CHRIST is ALMIGHTY and LAMB, Rev. 21:22-23)
Everlasting Father, mighty God became as a child, Isa 9:6, born of a virgin, He is Immanuel, Isa 7:14 –“Emmanuel” is interpreted “GOD WITH US”, Mt. 1; 23 . He became the true seed of Abraham, Gal 3:16, A Type of Isaac (in a figure), Heb 11:17-19(Vs. 19-as God is able to raise Him)
· We should understand, CHRIST as SON of Abraham, Gal. 3; 16, DOES WONDERS to make heavenly, spiritual men in CHRIST, 1 Co 15: 44-57!
· Therefore Isaac was a figure, Heb. 11; 17-19!
Since HIS CHRIST is Immanuel (God with us, God was in CHRIST, 2 Co 5:19. In Him dwell GOD HEAD bodily, Col 2:2-9)
· Since He is Mighty God, Isa 9:6, CHRIST had power to lay His life and take it back, Jn. 10:18.
JESUS CHRIST came a 2nd time to give salvation, Heb. 9:28. People now to repent when JESUS CHRIST had come during times of refreshing, time of restoration “during Malachi Purification, Mal 3: 1-5”
Ac. 3:19 Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord;
20 -And He shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you:
· These words, the SPIRIT teaches us of GOD’S WORK amidst believers!
21-Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began---so CHRIST did not come again ---until time of RESTORATION
· People wait for Him, but He comes at set times!
· Set time to pour MERCY on ZION had come, Ps. Ps 102:13 Thou shalt arise, and have mercy upon Zion: for the time to favour her, yea, the set time, is come.
Read in “Set time for salvation”—in No. 529 in www.restoringcaptivity.com
CHRIST came as THAT PROPHET, Acts. 3; 22—
He teaches now, Heb. 1; 2, BELIEVERS
COULD BE DESTROYED if he does NOT HEAR HIS WORDS, Acts.3; 23
Acts. 3: 22-For Moses truly said unto the fathers, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear in all things whatsoever he shall say unto you.
23-And it shall come to pass, that every soul, which will not hear that prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people.
GOD IS PERFECT, so every heavenly man has to be perfect in JESUS
CHRIST, having “CHRIST IN YOU”,
Col 1;26-Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints:
27-To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:
28-Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus:
29-Whereunto I also labour, striving according to his working, which worketh in me mightily.
Vs. 29 shows that CHRIST’s words working in Paul is mighty—so we learn-- Paul’s words TEACHES us to be perfect in JESUS CHRIST vs, 28.
So we are learning to be raised as PERFECT heavenly men as HEAVENLY CHRIST, through WORDS of PAUL!
· We see natural men needing specific clothes when travelling to space in rockets.
To meet the perfect RIGHTEOUS God of whole earth, 1 The 4; 17, the Mighty God gives the heavenly clothes of CHRIST to Raise, Rom. 6:3,4
The counsel to Raise through CHRIST is Rom. 6:3,4
Rom. 6:3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?—baptized to His death!
4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.---when Baptized---we raise “like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father”, so that we should walk in newness of life—this is the reason that ALMIGHTY and LAMB are the temple---GOD with US, Mt. 1; 23, died as LAMB, Isa 53, and raised by the GLORY OF ALMIGHTY!
5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:--he resurrected and RAISED TO HEAVEN! Acts.1; 9
And by BAPTIZM of Rom.6, we are able to be raised in newness of life that is without sin, when our old man is crucified with Him, Rom. 6:6-8 (so that we live with Him). Gerald Flurry said SET YOUR AFFECTIONS on THINGS ABOVE!
· Very true---we should know how THE WORD OF GOD teaches us TO BE HEAVENLY MEN!
WE become heavenly men through last Adam, JESUS CHRIST
1 Co 15:45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.—CHRIST quickens us!
Believe His words, they QUICKEN, Ps.119: 50--thy word hath quickened me.
1 Co 15; 36 says First to die, 1Co 15:36 -Thou fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die: Rom. 6; 6, says to be crucified with Him, vs. 7 says then we are forgiven ---SO WHEN YOU BELIEVE HIS WORDS---WORD QUICKENS!—HIS SPIRIT (the words, Jn. 6; 63 quickens) Jn. 6; 63-- It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.---so when natural men understand SPIRITUAL WORDS and BELIEVE the words of God, they QUICKEN the believer!!---SO BAPTIZM is BELIEVING the words of Rom. 6 BY EACH believer in CHURCH!
Eph 2:5 Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)---that is how we gentiles were saved BY HIS DEATH—“for SPIRITUAL GRACE” is HIS DEATH tasted for all, Heb. 2; 9---SO HIS GRACE saves!—HIS DEATH saves!! –makes us lead to NEWNESS OF LIFE!
· When we are raised in heavenly places---WE SHOUD WALK IN NEWNESS OF LIFE---not as natural men, but as SPIRITUAL MEN!
Therefore natural men comes FIRST
They become SPIRITUAL later, 1 Co 15; 46
1 Co 15; 46-Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual.
47 The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven.—since LORD is from heaven, we become as heavenly when we are raised by CHRIST!
48 -As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.—NEVERMORE we would be like FIRST ADAM, ---BUT when raised –or quickened by HIS SPIRIT the WORDS, we become as HEAVENLY CHRIST!—and CHRIST is RIGHTEOUS---HOLY---then we should be AS HE IS!---Gerald Flurry said to set your affections ON THINGS ABOVE, not on things ON EARTH, Col 3; 1, 2.—so PCG should understand HOW TO SET YOUR MIND ON THINGS ABOVE!
49-And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.
Through baptizm we are freed from sin to serve under HIS RIGHTEOUS sceptre, Heb. 1:8,9
LAMB gives the wife heavenly clothes ---WHITE LINEN washed with BLOOD OF LAMB, through great tribulation, Rev. 7:14-17 (That is the reason ISRAEL tribes were sealed, Rev. 7:1-8)
· CRUCIFIED CHRIST as LAMB gives WHITE LINEN by HIS BLOOD!!
· So where do we get white linen?----from HIS CROSS—when CRUCIFIED WIH HIM, Rom. 6; 6, to be forgiven, vs. 7!
When you raise in newness through Rom. 6 baptizm –you receive exceeding riches through His death and resurrection, Eph. 2:7.
(His death is His Grace, Heb. 2:9)—so spiritual grace is HIS DEATH!—
· GRACE of CHRIST is blessings from HIS DEATH, from HIS FLESH and BLOOD!
When Our old tent is destroyed, we have a building from God not made with hands, 2 Co 5:1-5.
2 Co 5; 1--For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.---the TENT each of us living is ONE’S BODY!
· That body should be dissolved—remove filth of our bodies!
· That is REMOVE SIN by Rom. 6; 6, 7—by words Ps. 119: 50 -- This is my comfort in my affliction: for thy word hath quickened me. –“the affliction –is SIN—and SIN should be removed by quickening words of Rom. 6; 6. 7!
· Then WE GET CLOTHES fitting for HEAVEN!
2-For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven:
3 -If so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked.---IF SIN IS REMOVED, then we are NOT NAKED to enter HEAVENLY PLACES IN CHRIST JESUS!
4-For we that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened: not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality might be swallowed up of life.---it is NOT removing clothes---BUT SPIRITUAL CLOTHES fitting for LIFE in SECOND COVENANT as IMMORTAL ---
1Co 15:53 -For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
· When SINS are removed we receive SPIRITUAL IMMORTALITY to live in our TENTS, when we LIVE as PILGRIMS, Heb. 11; 13, for GENERATIONS would worship ALMIGHTY FOEREVER in Covenant made with Noah, Gen. 9: 12!
Ge 9:12 -And God said, This is the token of the covenant -- for perpetual generations:
Here is a short list --NEW TESTAMENT teachings to be known to receive heavenly clothes through HIS SPIRIT.
· By Grace we are saved through faith, Eph. 2:8
· The free gift of God is by Grace (Which is His death, Heb. 2:9) , Rom. 5:15,16
· Free gift results in justification of life, Rom. 5:18 by CHRIST’S obedience many will be made RIGHTEOUS, vs. 19.
· Under Law (of OLD COVENANT) offenses (sins as lawlessness) become more lawlessness, Rom. 6: 19, but blessings of Grace (blessings through His death) reigns through RIGHTEOUSNESS leading to ETERNAL LIFE , Rom. 5:21
· When not baptized unto Rom. 6:3-7, lawlessness becomes more Rom. 6:19
· Free gift given through SPIRIT (The words) is ETERNAL LIFE, Rom. 6:22-23 (that is we would be made known of LIFE OF ALMIGHTY, Jn. 17: 3), TO LEARN HOW TO LIVE IN HIS PRESENCE!
· When we ‘PUT ON CHRIST’ by baptizm we as SONS OF GOD become RIGHTEOUS, FAITHFUL sons of Abraham , Gal 3:26-29—we have to be FAITHFUL TO KEEP HIS COVENANT which has to LAST FOREVER! –
Therefore we should have FEAR OF GOD, to keep every word, like how CHRIST kept, Lu. 4; 4, TO PRESERVE COVENANT, which would be established amidst PCG , Eze. 16; 60-63!—those who FEAR GOD would be made known of HIS SECOND COVENANT, Ps. 25; 14.
· We receive heavenly food from His flesh and blood, Jn. 6:51-58
· We get circumcised hearts, Col 2:11-13, as required, Eze. 44:9, Rom. 2:29
· Our obedience leads to RIGHTEOUSNESS , by believing in baptismal words, Rom. 6:16, 17, becoming slaves of RIGHTEOUSNESS , vs. 18—that is to serve God in RIGHTEOUSNESS for Holiness, vs. 19
· His stripes heal.
· We are to keep EVERY WORD OF His so that we do not sin, Lu 4:4, Mt 4:4
· When we were enemies of God (as sinners) we are reconciled to God through His death, then we are saved by His life, Rom. 5:10 we have received reconciliation, vs. 11, when GOD was in CHRIST, 2 Co 5:19 .
· We are to have faith in His words—then we serve RIGHTEOUSLY IN NEW COVENANT, Eze. 16:60-63
· RIGHTEOUSNESS imputed to us when we believe God who raised up Jesus our LORD from dead, Rom. 4:24, who was delivered (given to die on cross) for our sins(offenses) and raised for our justification, vs. 25 (justified as having NEWNESS OF LIFE without SIN in us)
· We ought to understand to get RIGHTEOUS clothes as white linen from LAMB, Rev. 7: 14-17, to be raised to heavenly church in heavenly JERUSALEM, Heb. 12:22-29
· The hearts are to be established by His Grace, Heb. 13:9 which means HEARTS to be established by the MANY RICHES granted by His death and resurrection—and by BELIEVING as receiving those blessings from HIM!
· Read Rom. 7 and 8
Rom. 8:10 And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.,
17 And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness., ---the CORE subject is to RECEIVE GOD’S RIGHTEOUSNESS through HIS WORDS!
23 And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body
26 -Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered..—WE OUGHT TO KNOW HIS WORDS—which is HIS SPIRIT----the HOLY SPIRIT which we receive as a blessing from baptizm, Acts.2; 38, 39.
27-And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God,==CHRIST makes intercession for believers, (saints are those sanctified by Him, 1 Co 1; 2)—He sanctifies by His blood, Heb. 12; 22-25, therefore BELIEVERS are to receive HIS BLOOD ---
· When we partake of PASSOVER BLOOD, we begin to LIVE BY BLESSINGS OF HIS BLOOD, such are saints sanctified by HIS BLOOD, 1 Co 1: 2
Rom. 8: 28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.-HIS PURPOSE –is HIS Second Covenant for which He made HIS ONE OFFERING, Heb. 10: 7-10, 14.
· So we should be VIGILANT to LEARN of COVENANT matters!
29 -For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.
· CHRIST as 1st born, and HIS FOLLOWERS are brethren in SECOND COVENANT –HE PURIFIES Levi first in Malachi Purification, Mal 3.1-5, to SERVE HIM in ALTAR!
IT IS THORUGH CHRIST that we receive JUSTIFICATION
And CHRIST gives us ALL THINGS, when CHRIST is IN US, Col 1: 26
When we “PUT ON CHRIST” by baptizm, Gal.3: 26-29
“PUT ON CHRIST” means, PUT ON the WAY HE LIVED, and believe EVERY WORD of GOD, to serve in TRUTH AND IN SPIRIT, Jn. 4; 23, 24
Rom. 8: 30-Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.
31 - What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?
32-He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?.
Nothing shall separate us from HIS LOVE, Rom. 8:33-39 --HE REQUIRES PERFECT LOVE to serve HIM TRULY according to HIS WORDS, then HE WOULD LOVE US, but if we destroy HIS SPIRIT, HE destroys us, 1 Co 3; 15-17.
HOLY SPIRIT teaches us how He prepares His believers to be established in SECOND COVENANT through ONE OFFERING, Heb. 10: 7-14 --Thus He perfects us as finisher of our faith, Heb. 12:2.
Then SECOND ARK would be seen, Rev. 11; 19, in Kingdom of God, vs. 15.
PART 4------
A STUDY of BLOOD OF COVENANT which enables captives to COME OUT OF PIT, Zec. 9: 11--READ MANY FUNCTIONS of HIS BLOOD OF THE COVENANT—They are BLESSINGS FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT OF ISRAEL AND ALL FLESH IN EVERLASTING COVENANT, Isa 59; 21
A STUDY of BLOOD OF COVENANT
READ MANY FUNCTIONS HIS BLOOD OF THE COVENANT—
They are BLESSINGS FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT OF ISRAEL AND ALL FLESH
IN EVERLASTING COVENANT, Isa 59; 21
· Remember CAPTIVES come out because of BLOOD OF COVENANT, Zec. 9: 11—that blood has MANY FUNCTTIONS to be working in our bodies to PRESENT BEFORE ALMIGHTY GOD of WHOLE EARTH, HE IS PERFECT!
BLESSINGS THAT
ARE IN BLOOD OF CHRIST
We should know what we receive in the cup—
For those BLESSINGS ARE to WORK in BODIES
Of THOSE IN EVERLASTING COVENANT
2Pe 1:10 --Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall:
· Whatever the words teach us of HIS BLOOD, even other blessings acts on us when we believe and partake the CUP--
1Co 10:16 -The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ?
· That is the AWESOME COMMUNION we would partake!
The cup is the new testament in His blood, 1 Co 11: 25,26, Mt. 26: 28, we should know what is in the cup and TO AGREE to keep HIS WORDS OF COVENANT! (We do not read in anywhere in bible that EVERLASTING COVENANT is made, but it is to be made during PCG times, Eze. 16: 59-63)
Rom. 5; 8--WE RECEIVE Atonement for our sins from BLOOD OF COVENANT
We RECEIVE ETERNAL LIFE BY BLOOD OF COVENANT —Jn. 6: 54, eternal life is given through words of Rom. 6, (Rom.6; 22, 23).
Eternal life is knowledge of ALMIGHTY through CHRIST our LORD, Jn. 17: 3 (He is teaching, Heb. 1: 2, as He had come a 2nd time to give SALVATION, Heb. 9: 28, and we gentiles know of SALVATION, Isa 56; 1-7, CHRIST our LORD teaches through HIS WORDS given to PAUL, 2 Ti 1: 11, and through TESTIMONY OF JESUS CHRIST , THE SPIRIT OF PROPHECY, Rev. 19; 10.
2 Tim 1; 11--- Whereunto I am appointed a preacher, and an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles
· HIS ETERNAL LIFE is known from whole bible, how He chose ISRAEL , Ex 4; 22, (brought them from Egypt when they were slaves in Egypt)
· And then HE TEACHES THEM HOW TO SERVE GOD OF WHOLE EARTH by VARIOUS KINGS who served HIM, they are written in KINGS, and CHRONICLES!
CHRIST our LORD is judging His wife
And then gives WHITE and FINE LINEN
Through LAMB, Rev. 7: 14
(Wife should be RIGHTEOUS through WHITE LINEN—read below)
She has to make RIGHTEOUS sons to serve in SCEPTRE
Of RIGHTEOUSNESS, Heb.1: 8, 9, IN GOVERNMENT of PEACE, Isa 9: 7
Rev. 19: 10— thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.
Rev. 19: 2 – For true and righteous are his judgments: for he hath judged the great whore, which did corrupt the earth with her fornication, and hath avenged the blood of his servants at her hand.
CHRIST our LORD makes HIS WIFE RIGHTEOUS
By BLOOD OF COVENANT by removing BLOOD of JERUSALEM, Isa 4; 4
Isa 4:4-When the Lord shall have washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion, and shall have purged the blood of Jerusalem from the midst thereof by the spirit of judgment, and by the spirit of burning.(Judgments in Lake of Fire, Rev. 20; 12-14, FIRE is HIS WORDS, Jer. 5; 14, and they are SENT HIS BANNER to cleanse Judah in four corners as NATIONS of earth, Isa 11; 9-12.
Isa 28:6 -And for a spirit of judgment to him that sitteth in judgment, and for strength to them that turn the battle to the gate.
WIFE of LAMB gets ready through receiving
WHITE LINEN from BLOOD OF LAMB
Rev. 17: 7 -Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.
8 -And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.
Rev. 7: 14--These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
CHRIST our LORD gave SPIRITUAL WATER to ISRAEL in history for OLD COVENANT, and gives FOOD and WATER for EVERLASTING COVENANT now--
1 Co 10: 2--And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea;--4--And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ
Moses baptized, John baptized—NOW MESSIAH BAPTIZES FOR NEW COVENANT, that would LAST FOREVER, through words of Rom. 6, Col.2: 11-13, Gal. 3: 26-29!(and all the words of bible should be known TO KNOW YOUR GOD, as EVERY WORD OF HIS HAS TO BE DONE, Lu. 4; 4, Mt. 4; 4)
· IT IS MOST HIGH WHO GIVES SPIRITUAL DRINK TO HIS CHOSEN ISRAEL (for ALL ISRAEL are not ISRAEL, Rom. 9: 4, 6)
· His words to be born again is found in Rom. 6: 3--11
The cup is the new testament in His blood, 1 Co 11: 25,26, we should know what is in the cup and agree to do what is required for NEW COVENANT!

HIS Death as GRACE of GOD, Heb.2: 9, grants GIFTS to serve HIM,
As PAUL found, 1 Co 3; 10, 1 Co 15: 10
That is the POWER OF GRACE of GOD which has to work in us
PAUL found DYING LORD in his body, 2 Co 4: 10
(CHRIST’S death, as DYING LORD in our body” for LIFE of CHRIST has to manifest in our body, 2 Co 4: 10, 11) (That is “DYING CHRIST IN US”, Col 1; 26, 27)---DYING CHRIST on HIS CROSS, grants HIS FLESH AND BLOOD to be serving in HOLIEST, Heb.10: 19-20!

Heb 12:28-Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:
1Pe 5:10 -But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you. (we suffer according to roles given us, some in Great Tribulation, some persecution, some shame----and all to suffer with Him, Rom. 8: 17, Rom. 6: 6).

Col 1: 5 -For the hope which is laid up for you in heaven
· To serve CHRIST our LORD, PAUL had DYING LORD in his body, 2 Co 4; 10, which shows PAUL wore LAMB’S RIGHTEOUSNESS in his body to teach us, SO PAUL wore CLOTHES GIVEN BY LAMB!
· That is how PAUL wore RIGHTEOUS LINEN, to serve God as married to Him, Rom. 7: 4 (church leaders are to prove CHRIST IN YOU, 2 Co 13; 4-7
ETERNAL REDEMPTION granted by HIS BLOOD---To serve in PERFECT TABERNACLE --Heb. 9: 11, 12
BLOOD OF COVENANT purges our CONSCIENCE from DEAD WORKS TO SERVE THE LIVING GOD--Heb. 9: 14--
(WE ALL DIED TO SIN, Rom. 6: 2, MESSIAH DIED TO SAVE US!)
BLOOD OF COVENANT SAVES US FROM SIN, Rom. 6: 6, 7.
Hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water—Heb. 10: 19, 22
BLESSINGS OF BLOOD OF COVENANT WHEN YOU HAVE COMMUNION of BLOOD OF MESSIAH 1Co 10:16 (Communion is Joining with HIS SPIRIT, 1 Co 6: 17, by partaking PASSOVER)
Blood of MESSIAH gives you His life, Joh 6:53- (A RIGHTEOUS LIFE)--Blood makes you NIGH TO MOST HIGH, Eph. 2: 13---Blood enables to enter HOLIEST, Heb. 10: 19
Blood of MESSIAH is blood of NEW COVENANT, Mt. 26: 28, It is BLOOD OF SPRINKLING, Heb. 12: 24 ---His blood speaks better things than Abel, Heb. 12: 24
Blood of MESSIAH is blood of EVERLASTING COVENANT, Heb. 13: 20—SO PEOPLE IN COVENANT should know that they receive HIS BLOOD to keep COVENANT, generation after generation, Isa 59; 21!
BLOOD OF COVENANT cleanses from all sins, 1Jo 1:7, Re 1:5—that is not to sin thereafter, Rom. 6: 6, ---2 Tim 2: 19.
BLOOD OF COVENANT justifies, Ro 5:9, ---otherwise we cannot go into His presence!
Blood of JESUS CHRIST declares His righteousness through GRANTING remission of sins that are past, Ro 3:25, AS PROMISED, Acts.5: 31.
BLOOD OF COVENANT redeems –forgives, Eph. 1; 7, ---His blood provides redemption even the forgiveness of sins: Col 1: 14
· To KEEP COVENANT HE perfects us through BLOOD OF COVENANT !
HIS BLOOD shed on CROSS gives PEACE, Col 1: 20---otherwise NO PEACE IN CHURCH!! ---NO PEACE IN HIS KINGDOM!—peace in His government, Isa 9: 7 come from BLOOD OF COVENANT!
HE HATES EVIL, Hab. 1; 13! So He corrected them, Hab. 1; 12.
Blood of JESUS CHRIST reconciles all things to Himself, Col 1: 20
· IF NOT FOR BLOOD OF MESSIAH SHED ON HIS CROSS, WE CANNOT HAVE PEACE with ALMIGHTY or peace with ONE ANOTHER!!
· Then one cannot keep NEW Commandment of LOVE, Joh 13:34 A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.
Blood of JESUS CHRIST through His death makes us FREE FROM THE POWER OF DEATH, the DEVIL, Heb. 2; 14--therefore MESSIAH too took part in PASSOVER, Heb. 2: 14 (with disciples, Mt. 26: 27-28, so that we His disciples PRESENT DAY, to partake of THE TRUE Passover, 1 Co 11)— (For HIS DEATH destroys the POWER of DEVIL, Heb. 2: 14---therefore devil would not be influencing us in kingdom of God!) when you know all these blessings, and have faith to keep Covenant by obedience of faith, Rom. 16: 26, we could be in His kingdom.
Blood of JESUS CHRIST, the BLOOD OF COVENANT, provides ENTRANCE TO THE HOLIEST, just as Aaron went with blood of animals, for the ERRORS OF PEOPLE, Heb. 9: 7—SO MESSIAH provides Atonement.
· Captives in Pit, Zec. 9: 11 should understand the POWERS OF BLOOD OF COVENANT to return to church, for JERUSALEM and Judah are taken to Babylon, Jer. 52; 12-15, daughter of ZION , in Babylon, to be redeemed from Babylon, Mic 4; 10!
Blood of JESUS CHRIST is not like blood of bulls, but MADE POSSIBLE TO ATTAIN ETERNAL REDEMPTION, Heb 9:12
(That is to enable EVERLASTING COVENANT which HE ESTABLISHES, Heb. 10; 7-16, in the midst of PCG, Eze. 16: 60-63.
· BLOOD OF COVENANT IS NEEDED, to PURIFY CONSCIENCE, Heb. 9: 13, 14
Blood of JESUS CHRIST DEDICATES EVERLASTING COVENANT, Heb 9:18
Blood of JESUS CHRIST has to be used FOR SPRINKLING THE BOOK OF COVENANT, JUST AS Moses used for OLD COVENANT, Heb 9:19
BLOOD OF COVENANT sanctifies people through sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ—unto OBEDIENCE, 1 Pe 1: 2---THAT IS WE ARE TO BE OBEDIENT TO HIS WORDS.
· Heb 13:12 -Wherefore Jesus also, that He might sanctify the people with His own blood, suffered without the gate. –
Heb. 10; 7-16 says that whole volume concerns ESTABLISHING THE SECOND COVENANT which is EVERLASTING COVENANT to be established with FIRST FRUITS of ISRAEL, PCG, Eze. 16: 60-63. The WORD of Heb. 13; 12 SAYS—“ that He might sanctify the people with His own blood”, SO IN ALL THE WORDS OF BIBLE, MOST HIGH MESSIAH was EVERSO CONCERNED OF HIS EVERLASTING COVENANT, which is established during PCG times—“He might”, Heb. 13: 12, means HE PROVES OUR FAITHFULNESS, HE SEES HEARTS, even thoughts, Heb. 4: 12---those who do not WANT TO OBEY would not be TAKEN for the COVENANT nor TO BE in HIS GLORIOUS CHURCH, Eph. 5: 27, but in Isa 66: 24!
· Receiving KNOWLEDGE of GOD is ETERNAL LIFE, if we do not KNOW HIS WORDS, we worship an UNKNOWN GOD, Acts. 17: 23
Heb 9:19 -For when Moses had spoken every precept to all the people --- sprinkled both the book, and all the people,
For NEW COVENANT, BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST SPRINKLES PEOPLE AND WORDS OF COVENANT, Heb. 12; 22-29, for OUR GOD is a CONSUMING FIRE, vs. 29 –EVERY WORD OF HIS IS TO BE HONOURED, Jn 6; 51-68, Deut.8: 3.
· When we believe and say the WORDS, they ACT, they HAVE POWER!
Just as Moses said OF BLOOD OF OLD COVENANT (of bulls and goats), that WOULD JOIN OLD COVENANT, AND sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle, and all the vessels of the ministry, Heb. 9: 21, 22---BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST is TO BE SPRINKLED ON ALL THINGS IN ALTAR, AND THE MINISTRY, PEOPLE to be sanctified by blood of sprinkling, Heb. 12: 24.
1Pe 1:19--the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:
BLOOD OF COVENANT SANCTIFIES THOSE AS HARLOTS, ADUTLTERESSES, IDOL WORSHIPPERS, because such actions DESPISE MOST HIGH MESSIAH, 1 Thes 4: 3-8.
BLOOD OF LAMB PURIFIES GIVING WHITE ROBES, Rev. 7: 14-17, making them as VIRGINS, Rev.14: 1-4. That is HOW THE LAND IS MARRIED AS A VIRGIN, Isa 62; 4, 5.
All those who had idols are purified when they believe HIS BLOOD OF SPRINKLING and receiving same at A TRUE PASSOVER, by words of Rom. 6, to RECEIVE NEWNESS OF LIFE!
MESSIAH AS LAMB WAS made as LAST Adam,
TO DIE FOR OUR SINS and make us SPIRITUAL, 1 Co 15:44-57
Granting HOLY SPIRIT by baptism, Acts 2; 38, 39, Jn. 1 :33
IS HIS MERCY TO ESTABLISH BELIEVERS
In a NEW COVENANT
That is THROUGH HIS WORDS we come to
KNOW ALL what HE REQUIRES FROM US!
But HE GIVES US BENEFITS to have FAITH IN HIM,
Believers ENTER KINGDOM OF GOD, Rev. 11; 15,
To worship Him, Isa 66; 22
Isa 53:4 - Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.
Mt 8:17 -That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses.
He shed the blood of NEW COVENANT, Mt. 26: 28, to establish His EVERLASTING COVENANT, Heb. 13: 20.
Now is the TIME ALMIGHTY establishes HIS EVERLASTING COVENANT promised to Noah, gen 9; 13-17 (read in No. 1056, 1057)
NOW IS THE TIME for Abraham to become father of NATIONS, ISRAEL was only seventy people when they came to Egypt, Ex 1: 1—5, they became a nation when they left Egypt, ISRAEL has to become NATIONS to make the EVERLASTING COVENANT, Gen. 17: 5, 7. That is the CAUSE OF ESTABLISHING THE ETERNAL COVENANT WITH NATIONS (They are the nations MOST HIGH made as “CAPTIVE NATIONS” as Judah in four corners of earth, who would come in a SECOND TIME, Isa 11; 9-12!

What is the vernal (or Spring) equinox?---The vernal equinox occurs in March. In the Northern Hemisphere this date marks the end of Winter and beginning of Spring. This is when the number of daylight hours begins to increase.
From Wikpedia--
The March equinox is one of four days (two equinoxes and two solstices) throughout the year that mark the beginning of a new season. The other days are the June solstice, the September equinox and the December solstice.

It is the 1st day of year. (1st day of 1st month, Ex . 12: 2)
Each year when March Equinox falls on a different day of the WEEK, seventh day could fall on DIFFERENT DAYS—hence SABBATHS do not fall on the same day EVERY YEAR!

The September equinox is the moment when the Sun appears to cross the celestial equator, heading southward. Due to differences between the calendar year and the tropical year, the September equinox can occur at any time from the 21st to the 24th day of September. Wikipedia

The March equinox occurs every year between March 19 and March 21. The dates given on this page are based on Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), which for practical purposes is equivalent to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). While the March equinox occurs at the same moment in time all over the world, the date and local time differ from place to place depending on the year and a location's time zone. For locations that are ahead of UTC (further east) it may fall on the day after,

The autumnal equinox occurs in September, and in the Northern Hemisphere this date marks the end of Summer and beginning of Autumn when the days will start getting shorter and the nights longer
What are the solstices and equinoxes?
The Earth’s axis is tilted by 23.4 degrees and so the plane of the Earth’s equator is tilted with respect to the plane of the Earth’s orbit around the Sun – sometimes referred to as the ecliptic.
But at two points in the year the Sun will illuminate the Northern and Southern Hemispheres equally – these are known as the equinoxes: the autumnal equinox in October and vernal equinox in March. It’s the moment in which the plane of Earth's equator passes through the centre of the Sun's disk or the moment that the Sun passes the celestial equator from the Northern to the Southern Hemisphere or vice a versa. On these dates, there are approximately equal hours of daylight and darkness.
The Earth takes approximately 365¼ days to go around the Sun. This is why we have a leap year every four years to add another day to our calendar; and so that there is not a gradual drift of date through the seasons.
For the same reason the precise time of the equinoxes are not the same each year, and generally will occur about six hours later each year, with a jump of a day (backwards) on leap years.

Scripture comments (Authorized Version)—
(Online Bible edition) On Tammuz
TAMMUZ ---A corruption of Dumuzi, the Accadian sun-god (the Adonis of the Greeks), the husband of the goddess Ishtar-- In the Chaldean calendar there was a month set apart in honour of this god, the month of June to July, the beginning of the summer solstice. At this festival, which lasted six days, the worshippers, with loud lamentations, bewailed the funeral of the god, they sat "weeping for Tammuz" Eze 8:14 The name, also borrowed from Chaldea, of one of the months of the Hebrew calendar.
· Captives of PCG, are seated in Chaldea, Eze. 1; 1-3
PCG leader had taught of Tammuz---
As a hidden religion—
CHRIST is jealous when church commits adultery with another god like TAMMUZ!-----WAILING, weeping---Eze. 8: 14, for ANOTHER god!!-----the very fact that CHRIST is JEALOUS, shows this verse (Eze. 8: 3, 14) is referring to CHURCH! ---GOD’S OWN CHURCH is SINNING!!—HE IS JEALOUS!------IT IS HIS BRIDE!!!
· It is a PITY, GOD’S CHURCH had not found out THE TRUE CALENDAR, would GOD ALMIGHTY the CREATOR would like words like TAMMUZ to describe a month in HIS CALENDAR!!
March Equinox falls on the 1st day of year. (1st day of 1st month, Ex . 12: 2)
Each year when March Equinox falls on a different day of the WEEK, seventh day could fall on DIFFERENT DAYS—hence SABBATHS do not fall on the same day EVERY YEAR!
PART 6—CONCLUSION
“Abib”—from online bible—(Larry Pierce’s) refer “scripture comments on word “ABIB”
Mentions MARCH VERNAL EQUINOX
Abib—from online bible—
Is according to MARCH VERNAL EQUINOX
An ear of corn, the month of newly-ripened grain #Ex 13:4 23:15 the first of the Jewish ecclesiastical year, and the seventh of the civil year. It began about the time of the vernal equinox, on 21 March. It was called Nisan, after the Captivity #Ne 2:1 On the fifteenth day of the month, harvest was begun by gathering a sheaf of barley, which was offered unto the Lord on the sixteenth #Le 23:4-11
· PASSOVER month is beginning of year, Ex 12; 2, ---equinox is result of EARTH being TILTED 23. 4 degrees causing SEASONS, (scientific knowledge) when LORD drew the circle of earth TILTING, Prov. 8; 27, through HIS WISDOM, Prov. 8; 1.
· ALMIGHTY required His chosen to worship in SEASONS, the APPOINTED TIMES, Lev. 23; 4—(Gen. 8: 22--While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease).-----Gen. 8: 22 means seasons would REMAIN FOREVER---that MEANS—HIS WORSHIP SERVICES in seasons, Lev. 23 are FOREVER—in the EVERLASTING COVENANT, Isa 59; 21, to begin shortly, Eze. 16; 60-63
· We should note how EXACT HE is to create FIRST DAY of FIRST MONTH, Ex 12; 2, for HIS SERVICE to begin with PASSOVER, causing to PASS OVER to HIS MOUNTAIN, Isa 30; 29, to accept TRUE SERVICE from HIS PEOPLE, for all are to worship through HIS WORDS (SPIRIT), --Which is worshipping in TRUTH and in SPIRIT, Jn. 4; 23, 24
· From EVEN of 1st day of 1st month, we could find the SEVENTH DAY to keep SABBATH!
· When captives return they are to keep TRUE PASSOVER, in Ezekiel temple, Eze. 45: 8-25.
· ERRORS should be ERASED from minds!
· According to CALENDAR through EQUINOX, we note TWELVE MONTHS (No ADAR 1 and ADAR 2) –
· For, there would be TWELVE MONTHS, Rev. 22; 1-2—Rev. 22; 2 In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month:
· ALMIGHTY names the GATES OF CITY by names of TWELVE Tribes-
Eze 48:31-And the gates of the city shall be after the names of the tribes of Israel:
Re 21:12 -And had a wall great and high, and had twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and names written thereon, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel:
· LORD honours number TWELVE, we should be mindful of No. TWELVE!
We in ships of Tarshish had kept HIS SERVICE according to David, 1 Ch 23; 30-31, according to Ex 12; 2 (First day of First month) from 2019 in view of SECOND COVENANT the VISION of ALMIGHTY and LAMB, Heb. 10: 7-14, when ALMIGHTY and LAMB are the TEMPLE, Rev. 21: 22, 23,
Some facts were given in No 1048, Please read them, they are all based on scriptures—for we are to do everything according to word of God, 2 Pe 1:19-20
As written LORD shines as SUN in its full strength, Rev. 1:16, Bridegroom changes His circuit according to Sun, representing lines He had given, Ps. 19.
Just as Sun changes circuit from Southern Hemisphere to northern as the 1st day of 1st season, Ex. 12;2 (known through Equinox of Sun which could be learnt from websites), LORD who left North gate of Sanctuary because of abomination, Eze. 8:5,6 as they were worshipping sun, 8:16, says that ISRAEL MINISTRY walked in gentile customs, so LORD brought judgments, Eze. 11:8-12 (12-And ye shall know that I am the LORD: for ye have not walked in my statutes, neither executed My judgments, but have done after the manners of the heathen that are round about you.
Glory of LORD went from NORTH to EAST side of city, Eze. 11:23, 10:19 then vision of wheels went up from leader and leader had to speak to the captives in Chaldea,
Eze 11:23 -And the glory of the LORD went up from the midst of the city, and stood upon the mountain which is on the east side of the city.
24- Afterwards the spirit took me up, and brought me in a vision by the Spirit of God into Chaldea, to them of the captivity. So the vision that I had seen went up from me.
25 -Then I spake unto them of the captivity all the things that the LORD had shewed me.
THEN THERE WERE MANY DEAD BODIES
Eze. 11:6 -Ye have multiplied your slain in this city, and ye have filled the streets thereof with the slain.
(They are dead to sin, Rom. 6; 2)
So we see PCG CAPTIVES IN Chaldea according to COUNSELS of WORD OF GOD, had absorbed a calendar from Chaldea, which was introduced by H. W. Armstrong, their god, Isa 23: 15!
· IT IS TIME to WORSHIP ALMIGHTY in truths of HIS!
· When baptized unto DEATH OF CHRIST, Rom. 6: 3-23, He grants HOLY SPIRIT, Acts. 2; 38, 39, then HE WOULD TEACH, Heb. 1; 2
· DEAD BODIES are given LIFE through JESUS CHRIST
Blessings are received from Baptizm from His flesh and blood at crucifixion, His cross, His resurrection ---raised to justify to receive gift of ETERNAL LIFE , Rom. 6: 22, 23-- raised as He raised, Rom. 6:3-7, raised for justification, Rom. 4:25
Set your affection on things above, Col 3:1,2. As SPIRITUAL, 1 Co 15:45, 46.
Last Adam raised from death, enabling us to be raised from SPIRITUAL DEATH, which is “DEAD TO SIN” Rom. 6; 2
Rom. 5:14 Adam was a type of Him who was to come.
Rom. 5; 14-Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam’s transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come..
1 Co 15:45 -48--Last Adam became a life giving SPIRIT, vs. 48 as in Rom. 5:15-16—By Adam many died, but Grace of God and free gift by JESUS CHRIST resulted in justification.
Rom. 6:23—wages of sin is death, but gift of God is ETERNAL LIFE in CHRIST Jesus, our LORD. Then we are to receive eternal life through CHRIST our LORD, we receive through Rom. 6, so many blessings written in Rom.6: 3-23.
· THOSE and many other written blessings are from HIS DEATH, therefore Eph. 2; 7 says of RICHES OF HIS GRACE!
Capstone shouted GRACE—GRACE to temple, Zec. 4; 7
HE is a CONSUMING FIRE,
De 4:24 -For the LORD thy God is a consuming fire, even a jealous God.
Heb 12:29 -For our God is a consuming fire
That is HIS WORDS as FIRE, Jer. 5; 14 would CONSUME SINS of PEOPLE with HIS WORDS, those who reject would be destroyed, 1 Co 3; 17.
· CHRIST our LORD gives MANY RICHES from HIS DEATH to those in TEMPLE!
White linen includes all riches of GRACE of LAMB (riches through death, Heb. 2:9 of LAMB). They are all the riches granted for the SECOND COVENANT for which h He sanctified Himself through HIS SHEDDING BLOOD. Believers receive them all when suffer with Him, Rom. 8:17, Rom. 6:6,7.
Therefore Paul said “he dies daily”—which means Paul wore all the Riches of CHRIST as clothes when “CHRIST was in PAUL”—Gal 2:20-21
It is unable to write all these blessings written in epistles—Each brother among brethren in CHRIST, Rom. 8:28 has to study from bible to understand many blessings through ‘Christ in you’
· All brethren to PUT ON CHRIST by baptizm, Gal. 3; 26-27
Gerald Flurry wrote or taught of minding on things above, but ministry has to compare GOD’S teachings with the word of God -----WORD commands gentiles to show the MERCY received by them, to ISRAEL, Rom. 11:31
Rom. 8:9-—if any man has not the SPIRIT of CHRIST he is NONE OF HIS!
HIS SPIRIT, the WORDS OF LIFE, Jn. 6: 63 has to dwell in us, to WORK IN US, TO SERVE HIM in SPIRIT, Jn. 4;23, 24!
· HIS SPIRIT is required to OBEY HIM for every word, Lu. 4; 4, Mt. 4; 4.
Therefore we see why God is pouring HIS SPIRIT through CHRIST, Heb. 1:2, coming a 2nd time to give SALVATION, Heb. 9:28, on DAY OF LORD , Mal 3:1-5, which is CLOUDY, gentiles times, Eze. 30:3 when we OBEY HIS SPRIT, we become heavenly men!
That is how to “Set your mind on things ABOVE”, Col 3;1,2!
Ministry of God has to learn from word of God! NOT FROM words of men!
The one book of Shepherd is not from many books, Ec 12:11,13., the preacher, son of David, Ec 1:1, King Solomon to whom wisdom of God wrote, Ec 12:11-14
Ec 1:4 -One generation passeth away, and another generation cometh: but the earth abideth forever. –these are COUNSELS for EVERLASTING COVENANT which has to pass from ONE GENERATION to the NEXT—Isa 59: 21
Isa 59: 21-- As for me, this is my covenant with them, saith the LORD; My spirit that is upon thee, and My words which I have put in thy mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy seed, nor out of the mouth of thy seed’s seed, saith the LORD, from henceforth and forever.
· SO THAT IS THE REASON why HE GRANTS us HIS SPIRIT!!
They are all counsels of the Heavenly king for heavenly men. Wisdom was given to Solomon so that people of EVERLASTING COVENANT learn God’s counsels for EVERLASTING COVENANT to enter KINGDOM OF GOD in New Ark, Rev. 11:15,19.
Judah rise with dead body –Isa 26:19 –in Isa 26—Judah is called as woman in Labour Isa 26:17,18
Overcome when judged—Rom. 3;4, Church was judged—1 Pe 4:17
Ps. 128: 1-- Blessed are those who fear who walk in His ways.
Rebuke........admonish....are commands of ALMIGHTY for He needs everyone to be perfect when He gives different abilities to people according to HIS WILL , 1 Co 12, (Others have to learn --even ministers) from one another!
Remember it is HIS WILL that He gives different abilities—for His works—then people are to hear the WORD OF GOD for them and the One who receives the ability has the RESPONSIBILITY to admonish others! That is hearing and submitting to God ALMIGHTY.
So preaching God’s words by some and others hearing God’s words from them is a command of God—He would judge whether people are OBEDIENT to Him to have faith in His WORDS!
· Read of rebukes –in No.1056 This TIME as waters of Noah Isa 54 mystery of CHRIST in YOU hidden for ages is ESTABLISHED for Covenant of Peace then His rebukes would END as LORD Has MERCY on ISRAEL Isa 54
· Rom. 14; 1 means we are to prove ourselves with WORD OF GOD!
Be LIKEMINDED, Rom. 15; 5, receiving one another, vs. vs. 7, admonish one another, vs. 14, ALL of us TO GLORIFY GOD, the FATHER of JESUS CHRIST ,Vs.7 Read in No. 1040 (Some are weak in Faith—read in No. 1008)
· 1Co 15:24 Then cometh the end, when He shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when He shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.
· That is CHRIST AS GOD OF WHOLE EARTH, HUSBAND OF ISRAEL, Isa 54; 5, would receive Kingdom as ALMIGHTY and rule through work of LAMB, Rev. 21: 22, 23. Since ALMIGHTY GOD was in flesh As CHRIST, 2 Co 5: 19.,
No. 1040--PART 3--Jn.14; 20--At that day ye shall know that I am in My Father and ye in Me and I in you
Fellowship with Father and Son, 1 Jn.1; 3, continue in SON and in FATHER, 1 Jn.2: 24, he is antichrist who denieth Father and Son, vs. 22, He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, hath both the Father and the Son, 1 Jn.1:9
THERE IS ONE GOD, Zec. 14; 9
· The ONE GOD began a work and FINISHES THE WORKS by being CHRIST!
Beasts are Kings –leaders who do not understand
As BEASTS
Ecl 3: 8—God tests men that they may see themselves like animals
Ecl 3:18 I said in mine heart concerning the estate of the sons of men, that God might manifest them, and that they might see that they themselves are beasts.
Real Beasts and we men all die—Ec 3: 19-For that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth beasts; even one thing befalleth them: as the one dieth, so dieth the other; yea, they have all one breath; so that a man hath no preeminence above a beast: for all is vanity.
20-All go unto one place; all are of the dust, and all turn to dust again.
21-Who knoweth the spirit of man that goeth upward, and the spirit of the beast that goeth downward to the earth?
22-Wherefore I perceive that there is nothing better, than that a man should rejoice in his own works; for that is his portion: for who shall bring him to see what shall be after him?—while we live, SERVE GOD in TRUTH, according to HIS WORDS, we men die—men exalting themselves IS VANITY!!
· Vs. 21 SPIRIT of man goes upwards, SPIRIT of animals goes down to earth
That is men’s sprit goes up to HIM for HE JUDGES what His people speak!
· No one can find God’s work from beginning to end, Ec 3:11
· We should know to SERVE GOD OF WHOLE EARTH according to HIS SPIRIT, and NOT BE PROUD against GOD and brethren, but ADMONISH ONE ANOTHER, to SERVE GOD IN TRUTH!
Ecl 5:8 -- Higher officials are over the high watchers---GOD IS WATCHING the men HE PLACED in church as WATCHMEN!
LORD REQUIRES US TO PROVE OF HEAVENLY CLOTHES which are SPIRITUAL!—therefore we are to have AFFECTION ON THINGS ABOVE!
· SPIRIT the words of HIS, GIVEN is the MERCY given for ETERNAL COVENANT---ALL TO BE DOERS of HIS COMMANDS!
Throughout the Bible from history of God’s people we SEE–envying, hatredness
Ge 37:11-And his brethren envied him; but his father observed the saying. (Envied Joseph)
Ps 106:16 -They envied Moses also in the camp, and Aaron the saint of the LORD.
King Solomon wrote WORD OF GOD, --NOT TO ENVY--Ec 4:4 -Again, I considered all travail, and every right work, that for this a man is envied of his neighbour. This is also vanity and vexation of spirit.---The HIGH WATCHER judges!—Ec 5; 8
When we understand WORD OF GOD, we see NOT TO BE CARNAL—envying, and strife--1Co 3:3-For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?
NEW Commandment He gave to LOVE ONE ANOTHER—Jn. 13; 34
Ro 13:13-Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying.
Obedience to His SPIRIT, the words of His are written through examples from whole Bible-even from history of ISRAEL to make understand from HIS SPIRIT that every word of God has to be STUDIED, HONOURED for complete obedience in EVERLASTING COVENANT, very soon to be established amidst Philadelphia Church of God, PCG as 1st fruits, Eze. 16: 60-63
When “CHRIST IS IN YOU” HIS SPIRIT would be in YOU
1 Co 3:16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
17 -If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.
Captives did not know works of Judah, Jer. 52; 12-15, but some of poor knew, vs. 16.
1 Co 3: 15-- If any man’s work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.
· Such COUNSELS of WONDERFUL COUNSELOR alone would be ESSENTIAL to PRESERVE EVERLASTING COVENANT of GOD OF WHOLE EARTH!
PCG tried to design Architecture of Ezekiel temple, but the NECESSITY is to KEEP Ezekiel temple ordinances to be accepted, Eze. 43; 18-27!
Worshipping on SABBATHS and HOLY DAYS glorifies GOD OF ISRAEL for saving ISRAEL from Egypt, and for ISRAEL to know HIS ALMIGHTY POWERS over HIS WORLD, to understand their GOD, HE is the POSSESSOR OF HIS CHURCH, Deut.5:12-15, Ex 20: 1, 8-10-- Num 15.37, 41, 38-40-- Deut. 16:9-12, Nu 16: 9.
· Read No. 954 HIS MIGHTY ACTS of SAVING ISRAEL FROM EGYPT to be remembered on SABBATHS and HOLY DAYS when HE REPEATS EGYPT TO PERFECT SONS as HAVING FAITH of Abraham –in www.restoringcaptivity.com
