David wrote of a conspiracy to make him sin against Bathsheba Ps. 31.4 Ahithophel Shimei and Absalom had done so as found through an exploit of people who know their God Dan 11.32

1240 David wrote of a conspiracy to make him sin against Bathsheba Ps. 31.4 Ahithophel Shimei and Absalom had done so as found through an exploit of people who know their God Dan 11.32

 

 

It is an exploit of people who know their GOD, according to Dan 11;32,

Wicked who Broke Covenant too would do exploits, Dan 11; 28

 

 

According to Ps. 31; 4, 10-13—there had been a conspiracy against David by his enemies, to make him SIN AGAINST BATHSHEBA, vs. 4, which caused his NEIGHBOURS to SLANDER him, EVEN TO take his LIFE, vv 10-13.

Ps. 31;4-- Pull me out of the net that they have laid privily for me: for thou art my strength.

 

Ps. 31 is explained in this article…

 

Dan 11;32--the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits.---they serve in ZION , The heavenly JERUSALEM, Heb. 12;22, those people, the 1st born of poor serve TRUSTING in ZION , Isa 14;30, 32.

 

In this article we see David sang Ps. 31.

Vs. 4 tells us that his enemies had plotted to make him sin, ---his bones were then consumed---causing his neighbours to HATE him, vv 10, 11,----he became as a dead man, ---he was like a broken vessel, vs. 12, ---he FEARED, MANY took counsels AGAINST David, ---even to TAKE HIS LIFE, Ps. 31; 12, 13.

·        But David TRUSTED in the LORD---he made SUPPLICATIONS to the LORD, vv14-22, and ----David ENCOURAGED the FAITHFUL to have THEIR HOPE in the LORD, vv 23, 24.

·        Therefore people serving under David’s Covenant are to TRUST IN THE LORD!

 

Ps. 31—SHOWS HOW David was laid to sin by his enemies,

They are Ahithophel, Shimei and Absalom---prove THEM as ENEMIES of David who MADE A NET for the INIQUITY against BATHSEHBA In this article

 

Enemies of David Ps. 31.4--Ahithophel counseled against David, 2 Sam 17; 21, Shimei too was an enemy of David, he cursed king David, 2 Sam 16:5-10, even Absalom son of David sought life of David, vs. 11

Read explanations in this article…

 

Through sins of David he learnt to be PERFECTED TO SERVE GOD, for his sins led him to LEARN WAYS OF EVERLASTING GOD of SALVATION who saves HIS people in an EVERLASTING COVENANT!---

·        Therefore PSALMS of David teaches us of KING of GLORY, Ps. 24.

·        For CHRIST our LORD teaches HIS GLORIOUS WAYS HE GIVES US through HIS ONE OFFERING, FOR SECOND COVENANT, Heb. 10: 7-10, 14.

 

 

It is an exploit of people who know their GOD, according to Dan 11;32,

Wicked who Broke Covenant too would do exploits, Dan 11; 28

 

 

According to Ps. 31; 4, 10-13—there had been a conspiracy against David by his enemies, to make him SIN AGAINST BATHSHEBA, vs. 4, which caused his NEIGHBOURS to SLANDER him, EVEN TO take his LIFE, vv 10-13.

Ps. 31;4-- Pull me out of the net that they have laid privily for me: for thou art my strength.

10-- For my life is spent with grief, and my years with sighing: my strength faileth because of mine iniquity, and my bones are consumed.

11 -I was a reproach among all mine enemies, but especially among my neighbours, and a fear to mine acquaintance: they that did see me without fled from me.

12 -I am forgotten as a dead man out of mind: I am like a broken vessel.

13 -For I have heard the slander of many: fear was on every side: while they took counsel together against me, they devised to take away my life.

 

David teaches to TRUST IN THE LORD when you SIN

And are in TROUBLE, for that is how David was SAVED!

Ps. 31;14— But I trusted in thee, O LORD: I said, Thou art my God.

15  My times are in thy hand: deliver me from the hand of mine enemies, and from them that persecute me.

16  Make thy face to shine upon thy servant: save me for thy mercies’ sake.

 

 

Wicked in church would do exploits after breaking COVENANT

People who know their GOD would be STRONG and DO EXPLOITS

Da 11:28 -Then shall he return into his land with great riches; and his heart shall be against the holy covenant; and he shall do exploits, and return to his own land. (Return to Chaldea, Isa 23;13, after breaking COVENANT, Eze. 44;7

Isa 23;13-- Behold the land of the Chaldeans; this people was not, till the Assyrian founded it for them that dwell in the wilderness: they set up the towers thereof, they raised up the palaces thereof; and he brought it to ruin.---when LORD sent PCG to wilderness, the leader as Assyrian broke Covenant, Eze. 44;7, and does exploits in the NAME OF H. W. Armstrong

(Assyrian is compared to Pharaoh, Eze. 31;1-3, Pharaoh was founded by CHRIST our LORD, Rom. 9;17)

 

Raised up palaces—INSTITUTES in the name of H. W. Armstrong RUINS THE CITY OF GOD!

·        Their excavations means NOTHING to GOD THE CREATOR!

·        PCG excavate RUINS in earth---LORD SPEAKS OF HEAVENLY CHURCH, Heb 12; 22-25

Armstrong Institute of Biblical Archaeology studied on Ex 34; 26, (seething kids in mother’s milk) –is written in No. 1160 in www.restoringcaptivity.com ---again PCG wrote of a NEW STUDY of ROMAN BALLISTA STONES confirming Josephus’s

Account of siege of JERUSALEM, saying BIBLE suggests such an invention, quoting 2 Ch 25; 15—written “In a magazine titled ‘Let the STONES SPEAK” –

·        Would JOSEPHUS’S findings be PROFITABLE to HEAVENLY CHURCH, our LORD IS ESTABLISHING!!!!!!

·        PCG had begun a NEW MAGAZINE with the Title “Let the STONES SPEAK”

In No. 1178—Gerald Flurry quoted 2 Ch 25;15--

 

Those are SOME LYING WONDERS of

BIBLICAL ARCHAELOGICAL INSTITUTE of PCG!

 

 

·        Gerald Flurry wrote---of their EXPLOITS under the name of H. W. Armstrong

The Philadelphia Church of God sponsors a private liberal arts college. Why is our college named Herbert W. Armstrong College? We had many different names to choose from, and spent a considerable amount of time searching for the right name.

Gerald Flurry also wrote—

Our work is grounded in what God taught through Mr. Armstrong and what he is teaching today. We are carrying on the traditions Mr. Armstrong established.

·        Gerald Flurry after breaking COVENANT, Eze. 44;7, became a harlot following H. W. Armstrong, Isa 23;15—colleges and many other exploits are under the name of H. W. Armstrong!

 

By worshipping men in church

According to the command of Gerald Flurry in PCG,

Levi in Church as the WIFE OF COVENANT of HIS YOUTH

Had PROFANED THE HOLINESS OF CHRIST our LORD 

 

Mal. 2; 11 -Judah hath dealt treacherously, and an abomination is committed in Israel and in Jerusalem; for Judah hath profaned the holiness of the LORD which he loved, and hath married the daughter of a strange god.

 

Covenant of Levi is corrupted

Mal. 2; 6 -The law of truth was in his mouth, and iniquity was not found in his lips: he walked with me in peace and equity, and did turn many away from iniquity.

7 -For the priest’s lips should keep knowledge, and they should seek the law at his mouth: for he is the messenger of the LORD of hosts.

8 -But ye are departed out of the way; ye have caused many to stumble at the law; ye have corrupted the covenant of Levi

 

 

BUT LORD’S people do EXPLOITS under the NAME OF CHRIST our LORD

THEY are STRONG in WORD OF GOD

TO HALLOW THE NAME OF ALMIGHTY CHRIST

Da 11:32 -And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits. --They serve in ZION , The heavenly JERUSALEM, Heb. 12;22, the 1st born of poor serve TRUSTING in ZION , Isa 14;30, 32, they were broken with an EAST WIND, to walk about in ZION , to make known the NEXT GENERATION in ZION , Ps. 48;7-14, it is PCG, who would be established in EVERLASTING COVENANT, Eze. 16;60.

 

David learnt to FEAR GOD to be BLESSED BY ALMIGHTY LORD

For David knew of EVERLASTING COVENANT a SURE COVENANT

2 Sam 23; 1-Now these be the last words of David. ---- the sweet psalmist of Israel, said,--- 2  The Spirit of the LORD spake by me, and his word was in my tongue.

3  The God of Israel said, the Rock of Israel spake to me, He that ruleth over men must be just, ruling in the fear of God.----

4--He hath made with me an everlasting covenant, ordered in all things, and sure: for this is all my salvation, and all my desire, although he make it not to grow.

·        David type RULERS should UNDERSTAND EVERLASTING COVENANT, and FEAR GOD to be PERFECT, as HE IS, Mt. 5;48

 

·        “he make it not to grow” 2 Sam 23; 4–means ---In David’s time SALVATION was not given because SALVATION comes after DEATH OF CHRIST, when people in church learns of CHRIST our PASSOVER, 1 Co 5;7, to judge yourselves, or be chastened by CHRIST our LORD before PASSOVER, 1 Co 11;23-32, ---to have KNOWLEDGE to be PERFECT and HOLY, for otherwise they cannot see HIM!

1 Co 11; 29 -For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord’s body

30 -For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep.

31 -For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.

32 -But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world.

 

·        Then, to come before HIM KNOWING HIS WORDS OF SALVATION so that

EVERY WORD of EVERLASTING COVENANT is known before RECEIVING PASSOVER to PASS into ZION, Isa 30;29

 Isa 30; 29  Ye shall have a song, as in the night when a holy solemnity is kept; and gladness of heart, as when one goeth with a pipe to come into the mountain of the LORD, to the mighty One of Israel.

 

 

Prove from words in this article that Uriah, a Jew or Bathsheba’s father  had no access to a Benjamites’ Well at Bahurim.

 

It was a plan for her to bathe there.

Ahithophel, Shimei, Absalom enemies of David had plotted Bathsheba to bathe at Well at Bahurim.

 

Thus Ps. 31:4 fulfilled, enemies of David plotted the iniquity of David.

 

 

 

SCRIPUTRES proves

Ahithophel, Shimei, Absalom were people against David

 

Let us get to the background how Ahithophel and Shimei had circumstances to plot a secret net for David, Ps. 31:4

(Ahithophel was grandfather of Bathsheba and Shimei owned the well)

 

(Also remember that in present day such secret nets would be laid by devil the deceiver, Rev. 12:9 because he is father of lusts , Jn.8;44)

Joh 8:44- Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do.

 

 

Ahithophel and Absalom had conspired

Against David (secret plans to outs David)

Ahithophel was King’s counsellor but conspiracy with Absalom grew stronger, 2 Sam 15:10-12 as Absalom robbed the hearts from men, 2 Sam 13:34

Absalom,  son of David FLED when he killed Ammon, vs. 32-33, Later Absalom retuned and king David ordered not to see his face, 2 Sam 14:24, Absalom  did not see king’s face for 2 years, vs. 28.

 

Therefore Ahithophel and Absalom are enemies of David

 

 

Ahithophel and Shimei

Ahithophel was king’s counsellor, 2 Sam 15:12 (just as Haman the leading prince of king Ahasuerus, Ether 3:1-3, was familiar with the Palace, because he fell across the couch where Queen Esther was seated, , Es 7:8)  similarly Ahithophel was familiar with king David’s house .

 

 

THE WELL where Bathsheba bathed

 

David saw Bathsheba bathing from king’s house, 2 Sam 11:2 (King David’s house was Saul’s house,  2 Sam 12:8)

 

Saul and Shimei are Benjamites, 1 Sam 22:7 , -----Shimei came from Bahurim,--- 2 Sam 16:5-7 to meet David, 2 Sam 19:16 and the well at Bahurim was in courts of his house, 2 Sam 17:18

 

·        He came to meet King David

 2 Sam, 19:16  -- And Shimei the son of Gera, a Benjamite, which was of Bahurim, hasted and came down with the men of Judah to meet king David.

·        Shimei who was of Bahurim ---was at close distance to hasted to come down to meet David!

 

2 Sam 17:18  Nevertheless a lad saw them, and told Absalom: but they went both of them away quickly, and came to a man’s house in Bahurim, which had a well in his court; whither they went down.

·        So THE WELL at Bahurim belonged to Shimei!

 

 

 

 

Thus the Well at Bahurim 2 Sam 17:18 was close to

King David’s house, vs. 21

 

2 Sam 17-21

In vs. 17 Jonathan and Ahimaz who were loyal to king David were sent to David,

to tell David, of Ahithophel’s wicked advice against king David, vs. 21 ----

A woman who was loyal to David hid both of them in THAT WELL; covered the mouth of WELL, VS. 19, ---and hid them from the men who came to capture them, --- she told them a lie and when the men departed, Jonathan and Ahimaz came out of the WELL, went and gave the message to David , Vs. 21--- those SCRIPTURES  PROVE that THE WELL was CLOSE to David’s house!

 

2 Sam 17; 18 -Nevertheless a lad saw them, and told Absalom: but they went both of them away quickly, and came to a man’s house in Bahurim, which had a well in his court; whither they went down.

 

19-And the woman took and spread a covering over the well’s mouth, and spread ground corn thereon; and the thing was not known.

 

20 -And when Absalom’s servants came to the woman to the house, they said, Where is Ahimaaz and Jonathan? And the woman said unto them, They be gone over the brook of water. And when they had sought and could not find them, they returned to Jerusalem.

 

21-And it came to pass, after they were departed, that they came up out of the well, and went and told king David, and said unto David, Arise, and pass quickly over the water: for thus hath Ahithophel counselled against you.

·        So Ahithophel counseled against David!

 

Ahithophel counseled against David, 2 Sam 17; 21, Shimei too was an enemy of David, he cursed king David, 2 Sam 16:5-10, even Absalom son of David sought life of David, vs. 11 .

·        David did not like Shimei, as was mentioned to Solomon 1 Ki 2:8-9 and Shimei who had not kept Solomon’s command was ordained to be killed by Solomon, 1 Ki 2:36-46

 

·        Shimei from Bahurim came down to meet King David, 2 Sam 19:16, Shimei pleaded King David to pardon for his sin, 2 Sam 19:18-23, David pardoned that day, vs. 23 --- but he was ordered to be killed by Solomon, 1 Ki 2:36-46.

 

·        Shimei was a Benjamite, 2 Sam 16:5-7 from Bahurim, 2 Sam 19:16, he cursed David 2 Sam 16:5 , Saul had made them to be against David,  1 Sam 22:7

 

Read----2 Sam 16:5-12, 15, 20-23

 

 

We see Ahithophel, Absalom Shimei were together when Shimei cursed David

·        Ahithophel was with Absalom, 2 Sam 16:15 when Shimei cursed David,

2 Sam  16:5-15

 

So Ahithophel, Absalom, Shimei (who had the WELL in his court at Bahurim, 2 Sam 17:18) were against King David.

 

·        The WELL could be seen from King’s house, 2 Sam 11:2(where Bathsheba bathed)

Ahithophel being counsellor of David 2 Sam 15:12, knew how the WELL could be seen from Roof of house of David 2 Sam 11:2   And it came to pass in an evening tide, that David arose from off his bed, and walked upon the roof of the king’s house: and from the roof he saw a woman washing herself; and the woman was very beautiful to look upon.  

 

So all three enemies of David had all possibilities to arrange Bathsheba to bathe there and Ahithophel would have also known the times King David would walk on the roof! Bathsheba is grand -daughter of Ahithophel –2 Sam 23:34, 2 Sam 11:3

·        We should notice, URIAH or BATHSHEBA did not have access to court of BENJAMITES!

 

Ahithophel—Eliam—Bathsheba

Bathsheba is grand-daughter of Ahithophel

Eliam is father of Bathsheba -- 2 Sam 11:3 And David sent and enquired after the woman. And one said, Is not this Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah the Hittite?

Eliam is son of Ahithophel---2 Sam 23:34-- Eliphelet the son of Ahasbai, the son of the Maachathite, Eliam the son of Ahithophel the Gilonite,---

 

 

Ahithophel’s advice to Absalom was to lay with wives of David,  (when iniquity against URIAH by David took place —2 Sam 16:21,22 was word of God, vs. 23, .

2 Sam 16:23-- And the counsel of Ahithophel, which he counselled in those days, was as if a man had enquired at the oracle of God: so was all the counsel of Ahithophel both with David and with Absalom.

 

Counsel of Ahithophel to Absalom, 2 Sam 16; 23, was the COUNSEL OF LORD

Given to King David, through NATHAN, 2 Sam 12; 11

 

2 Sam 12; 11  Thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will raise up evil against thee out of thine own house, and I will take thy wives before thine eyes, and give them unto thy neighbour, and he shall lie with thy wives in the sight of this sun.

 

·        So what do we understand?

Ahithophel was given the MIND of LORD by LORD HIMSELF!!

·        None of people could do ANYTHING by THEIR OWN COUNSEL in GOD’S CHURCH!!---CHRIST our LORD sees everything we do!!

 

 

·        We notice it was counsel of LORD to David given through NATHAN—2 Sam 12; 11 is just the same as counsel given by Ahithophel to Absalom , 2 Sam 16;23

 

2 Sam 12; 10-Now therefore the sword shall never depart from thine house; because thou hast despised me, and hast taken the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be thy wife.

11  Thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will raise up evil against thee out of thine own house, and I will take thy wives before thine eyes, and give them unto thy neighbour, and he shall lie with thy wives in the sight of this sun.

12 -For thou didst it secretly: but I will do this thing before all Israel, and before the sun.

13 -And David said unto Nathan, I have sinned against the LORD. And Nathan said unto David, The LORD also hath put away thy sin; thou shalt not die.

·        LORD forgave king David because of Repentance of David ---it should be the WAY with those having KEY OF David!---

·        For David’s Covenant is A SURE COVENANT! ---

·        ISRAEL to have a king of type of David is THE COUNSEL OF LORD!

 

 

·        When Absalom did not heed to advice of Ahithophel, 2 Sam 17; 1, 2---Ahithophel  hanged and died,  2 Sam 17;23

 

 

Ahithophel and Absalom planned to kill David--

2 Sam 17:14 –Ahithophel planned to kill King David, 2 Sam 17; 1, 2,  and to bring people back to Absalom and Absalom liked that counsel -----Yet Absalom required to listen to Hushai and heard his counsel not to give heed to counsel of Ahithophel, vv 7-13

·        In vs. 14 we see Absalom heard the advice of Hushai, the word of the LORD and in vs. 23 we see Ahithophel hanged himself and died, 2 Sam 17; 23

 

HUSHAI counseled to save David,

Ahithophel counseled to kill David, 2 Sam 17; 1, 2

2 Sam 17: 15 - Then said Hushai unto Zadok and to Abiathar the priests, Thus and thus did Ahithophel counsel Absalom and the elders of Israel; and thus and thus have I counselled.

16  Now therefore send quickly, and tell David, saying, Lodge not this night in the plains of the wilderness, but speedily pass over; lest the king be swallowed up, and all the people that are with him.

Vs. 17-- Now Jonathan and Ahimaaz stayed by Enrogel; for they might not be seen to come into the city: and a wench went and told them; and they went and told king David.

·        Thus David was made known to HIDE to be saved.

 

 

2 Sam 17:14--- And Absalom and all the men of Israel said, The counsel of Hushai the Archite is better than the counsel of Ahithophel. For the LORD had appointed to defeat the good counsel of Ahithophel, to the intent that the LORD might bring evil upon Absalom.

 

 

2Sa 18:10 - And a certain man saw it, and told Joab, and said, Behold, I saw Absalom hanged in an oak.

·       So we see—Absalom hanged himself, 2 Sam 18; 10-

·        Ahithophel  hanged and died,  2 Sam 17;23

·        And David did not like Shimei, as was mentioned to Solomon 1 Ki 2:8-9 and Shimei who had not kept Solomon’s command was ordained to be killed by Solomon, 1 Ki 2:36-46

 

Please read 2 Sam 17

 

Enemies of king David in Ps. 31;4 were killed,

But David was saved by LORD from his enemies

 

David knew that LORD’S COUNSELS ALONE would come to pass

And David knew to BE PATIENT, to SEE THE WILL OF LORD

To SEE David’s affliction AND DO GOOD to David, 2 Sam 16; 12

When the BLOOD THIRSTY men Ahithophel, Shimei and Absalom

Did against him!

2 Sam 16; 7 - And thus said Shimei when he cursed, Come out, come out, thou bloody man, and thou man of Belial:

9 -Then said Abishai the son of Zeruiah unto the king, Why should this dead dog curse my lord the king? let me go over, I pray thee, and take off his head.

10-And the king said, What have I to do with you, ye sons of Zeruiah? so let him curse, because the LORD hath said unto him, Curse David. Who shall then say, Wherefore hast thou done so?

11 -And David said to Abishai, and to all his servants, Behold, my son, which came forth of my bowels, seeketh my life: how much more now may this Benjamite do it? let him alone, and let him curse; for the LORD hath bidden him.

12  It may be that the LORD will look on mine affliction, and that the LORD will requite me good for his cursing this day.

 

·        We learn, King David was a patient man, to rule ISRAEL well!!

·        CHRIST our LORD needs people like David to rule IN HIS EVERLASTING COVENANT!

 

David readily REPENTED, (Read in Ps. 51) for he LOVED THE LORD and HIS ARK, HIS SERVICE, as he did perform, 1 Ch 23;30-31

Therefore KEY of David is established, forever, Eze. 34!

Eze 34:23 -And I will set up one shepherd over them, and he shall feed them, even my servant David; he shall feed them, and he shall be their shepherd.

 

 

LORD’S Covenant with David is SURE!

It is a BLESSED COVENANT having SURE MERCIES of David

David was in every point EXALTING ALMIGHTY GOD and

HIS Tabernacle with ARK OF COVENANT as we see in scriptures

Of OLD COVENANT

 

Isa 55:3 - Incline your ear, and come unto me: hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David.

 

Prophecies for Covenant with David

Are given freely

Isa 55; 1 -Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.

2-Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your labour for that which satisfieth not? hearken diligently unto me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness.

·        The TRUE BREAD of JESUS CHRIST comes FREELY!!

·        All know that NONE pay anything for my work!!!!

·        WORD OF LORD is TRUTH!!

 

When KEY OF David is SHUT, Rev. 3;

Isa 55; 4- Behold, I have given him for a witness to the people, a leader and commander to the people.

When LORD shuts “key of David” amidst Philadelphia Church of God,

NO MAN could OPEN IT---

Rev. 3; 7 -And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write; These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth;

·        Then HOW would Key of David prosper?

·        LORD HAD CALLED A NATION, which was prophesied by even David, and Solomon!

 

BEHOLD, CHRIST our LORD called a NATION

PCG did not know them, HOLY ONE OF ISRAEL gives help to Philadelphians

 Isa 55; 5  Behold, thou shalt call a nation that thou knowest not, and nations that knew not thee shall run unto thee because of the LORD thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel; for he hath glorified thee.

 

·        David prophesied of that NATION, the STRANGERS —2 Sam 22; 44-46

·        Those STRANGERS serve PCG, Isa 14;1, 2, the 1st born of poor, Isa 14;30, 32

2 Sam 22; 44-- Thou also hast delivered me from the strivings of my people, thou hast kept me to be head of the heathen: a people which I knew not shall serve me.

45 -Strangers shall submit themselves unto me: as soon as they hear, they shall be obedient unto me.

46 -Strangers shall fade away, and they shall be afraid out of their close places.

·        Through work of CHRIST our LORD amidst us, HE GRANTS SALVATION, 2 Sam 22; 47 -The LORD liveth; and blessed be my rock; and exalted be the God of the rock of my salvation.

 

David sang in 2 Sam 22;1-7—vv 21-30-----in vs. 30—referring to us, gentiles--“they LEAP over WALL”---today gentiles “LEAP over WALL”—Joel 2; 2-11. -----vs. 5-they LEAP, vs. 9—they ENTER house through WINDOWS like thieves, ---

(Our e-mails come that way!).

·       MARVELLOUS ARE HIS COUNSELS!----FULFILLS after YEARS, THOUSANDS OF YEARS!

·       2Pe 3:8  -But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.

 

 

 

GENTILES took hold of COVENANT with David, Isa 56; 1-7

Isa 56; 1 - Thus saith the LORD, Keep ye judgment, and do justice: for my salvation is near to come, and my righteousness to be revealed

2  Blessed is the man that doeth this, and the son of man that layeth hold on it; that keepeth the sabbath from polluting it, and keepeth his hand from doing any evil.

·        NO EVIL is found in our service, because we HONOUR CHRIST our LORD in ALL OUR WORKS!

·        We do not regard any work of ANY MAN, for COVENANT WITH CHRIST our LORD!

·        We believe EVERY WORD of HOLY ONE OF ISRAEL, Isa 17;7!

·        We were “FATHERLESS” –meaning we did not know GOD OF ISRAEL  as FATHER of ISRAEL, ---but BLOOD OF CHRIST made us NEAR to ISRAEL, Eph. 2; 11-13, THUS WE WERE QUICKENED, saved by GRACE, Eph. 2; 5, 6,

3 -Neither let the son of the stranger, that hath joined himself to the LORD, speak, saying, The LORD hath utterly separated me from his people: neither let the eunuch say, Behold, I am a dry tree.

·        We are SEPARATED for SERVICE OF CHRIST our LORD!

·        MUCH has to be DONE, READING AND WRITING, WAITING  on CHRIST our LORD!

4 -For thus saith the LORD unto the eunuchs that keep My Sabbaths, and choose the things that please me, and take hold of MY COVENANT;

·        Eunuchs love their master---that is how we work keeping SABBATH and COVENANT!

 

WORK of Philadelphia Church of God was SHUT--- Rev. 3; 7 --And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write; These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth;

GENTILE WORK was opened (Isa 56, Isa 14;30,32, Ps. 48: 7-14)---Rev. 3; 8 --I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name.

·        We have LITTLE STRENGTH! ---BUT KEEP GROWING as LORD teaches, Isa 17;7!—SO we have an OPEN DOOR, AS WE KEEP HIS WORD!

·        Never will we DENY HIS HOLY RIGHTEOUS NAME!!

·        Some others deny HIS NAME and DESPISE HIS NAME by fornication, 1 Thes 4; 1-8,

·        PCG HONOURS H. W. Armstrong, ---a dead man, when CHRIST our LORD IS LIVING ----- Isa 38:19  The living, the living, he shall praise thee,

 

Jews of PCG (who made COVENANT with LORD, Eze. 16;8)

Broke Covenant, Eze. 44;7, by being harlot, Eze. 16;15-59

And became SYNAGOGUE OF Satan, Rev. 3;9

Rev. 3; 9 --Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee.

 

·        but do lie----Rom.  1;  25  Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.

·        The SINNERS would DEFINITELY come and WORSHIP CHRIST our LORD, otherwise they cannot stay in CHURCH OF GOD!!

Our work is grounded in what God taught through Mr. Armstrong and what he is teaching today. We are carrying on the traditions Mr. Armstrong established. We follow what he did, building on the understanding he had.

 

Herbert W. Armstrong was one of the most prominent religious leaders of the 20th century.

·        So the PCG honours EVERY WORD of a prominent church leader in CHURCH OF GOD!

·        NOT THE WORD OF GOD----but EVERY WORD of H. W. Armstrong!

·        But PCG TRUMPET keep announcing of “EVERY WORD OF GOD” !----

·        So PCG PROVE of their LIE, Rom. 1;25

·        PCG honours EVERY WORD of a prominent church leader in CHURCH OF GOD!

 

 

Gerald Flurry wrote in Royal vision Jan/Feb 2005

In page 6 of the part 2 Rev 3 of Royal vision-Gerald Flurry wrote referring to “SODOM Today’. He wrote—spiritual Sodomy is far more than just homosexuality, Gen 18:20-21 which verses say that CRY of Sodom went up to God.

Gerald Flurry wrote---“Do you think that cry has gone up to God today?”

Read in No. 1172 in www.restoringcaptivity.com

·       The CRY of PCG leader, as Sodom had gone to EARS OF CHRIST our LORD!

 

 

READ WORD BY WORD of SCRIPTURES to know HOW

CHRIST our LORD TEACHES!

Isa 55; 6 -Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:

·        Seek HIM While HE MAY BE FOUND!!

·        While HE IS NEAR!

7 -Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.

·        LET SINNERS turn to CHRIST AS LAMB, to THRONE OF GRACE of LAMB who DIED TO TAKE AWAY our sins!

8 -For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.

9 -For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts

 

·        Ways of CHRIST our LORD is seen in HIS JUDGMENTS done as in Heb. 4;12, 13---HE IS CLEANSING MARROW, REINS, BONES, through HIS BLOOD!

 

Read of Heb. 4;12, 13----

SEEK HIS THRONE OF GRACE Heb. 4.16 of LAMB Rev. 5. 6 knowing MIND OF CHRIST understanding “CHRIST IN US” for gentiles had made known to PCG of “Mystery of ages “ Col 1.26,27---read in Nos. 1238, 1239 in www.restoringcaptivity.com

 

Rev. 21; 27 -And there shall in no wise enter into it anything that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb’s book of life.

·        LIARS against book of REVELATIONS receive PLAGUES mentioned in book of REVELATIONS, Rev. 22;18,  their names are NOT WRITTEN in book of Life and they cannot enter HOLY CITY, Rev. 22: 18, 19

·        Those who are dead to sin, Rom. 6: 2 are NOT WRITTEN IN BOOK OF LIVING--Ps 69:28 --Let them be blotted out of the book of the living, and not be written with the righteous.---

 

 

 

Read Ps. 51---

Repentance of David, and how he was shamed, Deceitful servants are CURSED Jer. 48.10 sword of LORD used Heb.4.12 to make them BLAMELESS 2 Pe 3.14 adulterous leaders are SHAMED Jer. 8.10 just as David the prophet Acts. 2 was shamed 2 Sam 12—read in Nos.1190, 1191 in www.restoringcaptivity.com

 

 

Ps. 31

Ps. 31; 1 -  A Psalm of David. » In thee, O LORD, do I put my trust; let me never be ashamed: deliver me in thy righteousness.

·        David sinned, Repented, and was forgiven, but he was PUNISHED, JUDGED!

PEOPLE OF ENDTIME CHURCH is JUDGED,

They SHOULD FEAR THE GREAT GOD CHRIST our LORD!

Job 19:29 -Be ye afraid of the sword: for wrath bringeth the punishments of the sword, that ye may know there is a judgment.

·        LORD’S two edged sword is SHARPER and POWERFUL, QUICKER than ANY two edged sword, Heb. 4;12!

·        SERIOUS JUDGMENTS proceeds through HIS SHARP SWORD, to CLEANSE the INTENTS OF HEARTS, BONES, MARROW, Heb. 4;12

 

Ps 149:7 -To execute vengeance upon the heathen, and punishments upon the people;----9 -To execute upon them the judgment written: this honour have all his saints. Praise ye the LORD.

·        Thus the Righteous judges do their judgments against adulteresses who shed blood, so that the LAND WOULD HAVE NO LEWDNESS, Eze. 23; 45-48

 

Above article No. 1240 proved how David’s enemies

Namely Ahithophel, Absalom , and Shimei made a secret plot to

Make David commit adultery against BATHSHEBA, wife of URIAH!

Ps. 31;1-4---LORD GUIDED David, saved from DEATH, 2 Sam 12

Ps. 31; 2 -Bow down thine ear to me; deliver me speedily: be thou my strong rock, for an house of defence to save me.

3-For thou art my rock and my fortress; therefore for thy name’s sake lead me, and guide me.

4 -Pull me out of the net that they have laid privily for me: for thou art my strength.

5 -Into thine hand I commit my spirit: thou hast redeemed me, O LORD God of truth.

·        LORD redeemed David from death, 2 Sam 12, as HE WOULD DO TO END TIME PEOPLE OF David, when they BOW DOOWN TO THRONE OF GRACE of JESUS CHRIST AS LAMB, Heb. 4;16

 

 

 

Ps. 31; 6-I have hated them that regard lying vanities: but I trust in the LORD.

7 -I will be glad and rejoice in thy mercy: for thou hast considered my trouble; thou hast known my soul in adversities;

8 -And hast not shut me up into the hand of the enemy: thou hast set my feet in a large room.

 

LARGE ROOM, Ps. 31;8—BROAD PLACE, Job 36; 16

LARGE PLACE, Ps. 18;19----2 Sam 22: 20

Means EVERLASTING COVENANT of CHRIST our LORD with David

Which would spread to WHOLE EARTH one day!

For CHRIST AS LAMB died to SAVE THE WHOLE WORLD, 1 Jn.  2;2

Ps 18:19-He brought me forth also into a large place; he delivered me, because he delighted in me.

Job 36:16 -Even so would he have removed thee out of the strait into a broad place, where there is no straitness;

Ps 118:5 -I called upon the LORD in distress: the LORD answered me, and set me in a large place.

 

2Sa 22:20 -He brought me forth also into a large place: He delivered me, because He delighted in me.

 

EVERLASTING COVENANT in a LARGE PLACE, 2 Sam 22; 20-34, WITH David

IS BECAUSE OF his OBEDIENCE TO WAYS, STATUTES of CHRIST our LORD

EVERLASTING COVENANT is with ALL FLESH,

One day it would spread to the WHOLE EARTH,

As HIS PROPITIATION is for whole world, 1 Jn.  2;2

2 Sam 22; 21  The LORD rewarded me according to my righteousness: according to the cleanness of my hands hath he recompensed me.

22  For I have kept the ways of the LORD, and have not wickedly departed from my God.

23  For all his judgments were before me: and as for his statutes, I did not depart from them.

24  I was also upright before him, and have kept myself from mine iniquity.

25  Therefore the LORD hath recompensed me according to my righteousness; according to my cleanness in his eye sight.

26  With the merciful thou wilt shew thyself merciful, and with the upright man thou wilt shew thyself upright.

27  With the pure thou wilt shew thyself pure; and with the froward thou wilt shew thyself unsavoury.

28  And the afflicted people thou wilt save: but thine eyes are upon the haughty, that thou mayest bring them down.

·        CHRIST our LORD is gracious, He pardons iniquity WHEN PEOPLE SUBMIT TO HIS THRONE OF GRACE, Heb. 4;16

 

2 Sam 22; 29 -For thou art my lamp, O LORD: and the LORD will lighten my darkness.

·        Light is righteousness, Ps. 36;7, darkness is wickedness, Prov. 4;19

·        Wickedness of His people would be CLEANSED from their MARROW, REINS, BLOOD, BONES, Heb. 4;12, 13, when they BOW DOWN TO HIS THRONE OF GRACE, Heb. 4;16, GRACE being HIS SACRIFICE, Heb. 2;9, as of a LAMB, who CLEANSES ALL OUR BODIES , Heb. 4;12, TO MAKE US HOLY as HE IS HOLY!

·        Therefore SINNERS should BOW DOWN to HIS THRONE OF GRACE,

·        Then they WOULD BE WASHED WITH BLOOD OF COVENANT, Mt. 26;28, which would ENABLE THEM TO BE PART OF EVERLASTING COVENANT, in MOUNTAIN OF LORD, Isa 30;29.

 

 

 

 

2 Sam 22; 30  For by thee I have run through a troop: by my God have I leaped over a wall.---

David sang in 2 Sam 22;1-7—vv 21-30-----in vs. 30—referring to us, gentiles--“they LEAP over WALL”---today gentiles “LEAP over WALL”—Joel 2; 2-11. -----vs. 5-they LEAP, vs. 9—they ENTER house through WINDOWS like thieves, ---

(Our e-mails come that way!).

·       MARVELLOUS ARE HIS COUNSELS!----FULFILLS after YEARS, THOUSANDS OF YEARS!

 

2 Sam 22; 31  As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the LORD is tried: he is a buckler to all them that trust in him.

32  For who is God, save the LORD? and who is a rock, save our God?

33  God is my strength and power: and he maketh my way perfect.

34  He maketh my feet like hinds’ feet: and setteth me upon my high places.

·       Thus David HONOURED CHRIST our LORD the CREATER,

·       ALMIGHTY HAD CHOSEN David ---IT IS LORD WHO MADE David as HE REQUIRES!

·       And NOW, those serving as in key of David---are to SERVE AS David did, for

·       WAYS OF David please HOLINESS AND RIGHTEOUSNESS of LORD ALMIGHTY!

 

 

There is a TIME FOR EVERY THING, Ec 3

Ec 3; 14 -I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be forever: nothing can be put to it, nor any thing taken from it: and God doeth it, that men should fear before him.

15-That which hath been is now; and that which is to be hath already been; and God requireth that which is past.

16 - And moreover I saw under the sun the place of judgment, that wickedness was there; and the place of righteousness, that iniquity was there.

·        EVERLASTING COVENANT is FOREVER (EVERLASTING!)

·        But wickedness and Iniquity is in the WORLD!

·        THAT IS THE REASON CHRIST was CRUCIFIED to SAVE THE WORLD!

·        But HE IS HOLY, his people should be HOLY!

·        HE has to REMOVE LUSTS OF FLESH, for devil the father of LUSTS, Jn.  8; 44, had DECEIVED THE WORLD, Rev. 12;9!

 

 

 

WHEN devil deceived the world, Rev. 12;9

LORD had prophesied of FAILURE of church members

As LEWD, Eze. 22; 8-11, Eze.23;3, 8, Hos. 4;13, 14

SO THE CHURCH IS IN TROUBLE!

 

Ps. 31; 9- Have mercy upon me, O LORD, for I am in trouble: mine eye is consumed with grief, yea, my soul and my belly.

10 -For my life is spent with grief, and my years with sighing: my strength faileth because of mine iniquity, and my bones are consumed.

·        CHRIST our LORD cleanses bones, marrow, intents of hearts, Heb. 4;12, 13, when people bow down to THRONE OF GRACE, Heb. 4: 16

11 -I was a reproach among all mine enemies, but especially among my neighbours, and a fear to mine acquaintance: they that did see me without fled from me.

·        TROUBLE---NEIGHBOURS WIVES had caught some leading people in church, Eze. 22; 11, Eze. 33;26, they are as STRANGE WOMEN who would reduce men to a CRUST OF BREAD, Prov. 6;26-29—

·        If it happens to ministry, they would have FAMINE OF BREAD, and the CHURCH WOULD BE AFFECTED!

·        Well, it is already affected, the church has AN IDOL in H. W. Armstrong!

·        It is SODOMY, Rom.  1;25-27.

 

Gerald Flurry feared of sodomy—

Gerald Flurry wrote in Royal vision Jan/Feb 2005

In page 6 of the part 2 Rev 3 of Royal vision-Gerald Flurry wrote referring to “SODOM Today’. He wrote—spiritual Sodomy is far more than just homosexuality, Gen 18:20-21 which verses say that CRY of Sodom went up to God.

Gerald Flurry wrote---“Do you think that cry has gone up to God today?”

Gerald Flurry proves from his words, that their MOLTEN IMAGE Isa 48.5 as H. W. Armstrong as a created being making him as a god Rom.1.25 (it is the LIE, Rom. 1.25) , to follow his teachings having H.

Why Our College Is Named After Herbert W. Armstrong --By Gerald Flurry • Aug. 22, 2019

(Repeated in TRUMPET on Aug 13th 2022)

 

·        Comments--So this is why WORD OF GOD is not honoured as we see, read in Nos. 1172 onwards!—PCG nor WCG kept NEW MOONS, as written in 1 Ch 23; 30-31, Num 28; 9-14!

Mal 3:14 -Ye have said, It is vain to serve God: and what profit is it that we have kept his ordinance, and that we have walked mournfully before the LORD of hosts?

15 -And now we call the proud happy; yea, they that work wickedness are set up; yea, they that tempt God are even delivered.

Mt 12:36 --But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.

·        So PCG leader is answerable to CHRIST our LORD now, as JESUS CHRIST is JUDGING, Dan 7; 9.

 

·        JESUS CHRIST said TO KEEP EVERY WORD, Mt. 4.4, Lu. 4.4 as prophesied, Deut. 8; 3,  to OVERCOME spiritual devil, (which is EVILNESS in man)

·        But Gerald Flurry teaches that PCG has to FOLLOW what H. W. Armstrong DID through man’s understanding!

 

BEAST POWER and IMAGE of BEAST is in the MIDST OF PCG, Rev. 13, 14,

CHRIST our LORD had counseled a DAY---As DAY OF LORD to JUDGE, Dan 7;9, so HE GAVE men to do according To their LUSTS, Ps 81; 11, so HE JUDGED!

Ps 81: 11 -But my people would not hearken to my voice; and Israel would none of me.--12 -So I gave them up unto their own hearts’ lust: and they walked in their own counsels. 

 

 

·        SPIRIT OF LORD, 2 Co 3;17,  we are to join the LORD with HIS SPIRIT, 1 Co 6; 17, your body is TEMPLE of LORD, we are NOT our OWN, 1 Co 6: 19!

·        They all had HONOURED H. W. Armstrong more than GOD, prove from writings of Gerald Flurry in No. 1172 in www.restoringcaptivity.com

 

Rom. 1; 23--And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts,

·       Corruptible man is H. W. Armstrong, and his IMAGE is found in PCG and it is proved by Gerald Flurry in his article below stated—

·        fourfooted beasts,-----Ps 22:16  For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet.----that is CHURCH MINISTRY as four footed dogs, have CAUSED TO PIERCE THE HANDS OF JESUS CHRIST

·        therefore THEY ARE TO RECEIVE HIS SACRIFICE to be saved, BOWING DOWN TO HIS THRONE OF GRACE—

·        They are to SEARCH the BLESSINGS from HIS WORDS, (form HIS SPIRIT, THE WORDS, Jn.  6;63) to enter and receive those BLESSINGS OF HIS GRACE!

 

 

 

CHRIST our LORD helps those of David

BECAUSE David is as FORGOTTEN

Ps. 31; 12-I am forgotten as a dead man out of mind: I am like a broken vessel.

13-For I have heard the slander of many: fear was on every side: while they took counsel together against me, they devised to take away my life.

 

CHRIST our LORD helps with HIS WORDS TO FOLLOW

THEN David would have LIFE

Rev. 3; 17  Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:

18  I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.

19  As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.

20  Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.

21  To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.

22  He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.

 

 

CHRIST our LORD would help David as he is in trouble

Ps. 31; 14 -But I trusted in thee, O LORD: I said, Thou art my God.

15-My times are in thy hand: deliver me from the hand of mine enemies, and from them that persecute me.

16 -Make thy face to shine upon thy servant: save me for thy mercies’ sake.

17-Let me not be ashamed, O LORD; for I have called upon thee: let the wicked be ashamed, and let them be silent in the grave.

·        PCG is to be shamed, Eze. 16;59

 

Ps. 31; 18 -Let the lying lips be put to silence; which speak grievous things proudly and contemptuously against the righteous.

·        CHRIST our LORD gives COAL OF JUNIPER TO LYING LIPS, Ps. 120

 

 

GOODNESS of “CHRIST IN US’ formed when one “PUTS ON CHRIST”

By baptism, Gal.3;26-29 is  SECRET PLACE to be saved from EVIL TONGUES, Ps31;19, 20

Ps. 31; 19 - Oh how great is thy goodness, which thou hast laid up for them that fear thee; which thou hast wrought for them that trust in thee before the sons of men!

20 -Thou shalt hide them in the secret of thy presence from the pride of man: thou shalt keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues.

 

Ministry is to PROVE “CHRIST IN US” otherwise they are REPROBATES, 2 Co 13;4-7

 

Ps. 31; 21-Blessed be the LORD: for he hath shewed me his marvellous kindness in a strong city.

·        Ephratah was found Ps. 132: 1-18

 

Ps. 132; 6 --Lo, we heard of it at Ephratah: we found it in the fields of the wood.

7 -We will go into his tabernacles: we will worship at his footstool.

8  Arise, O LORD, into thy rest; thou, and the ark of thy strength.

9  Let thy priests be clothed with righteousness; and let thy saints shout for joy.

·        The RIGHTEOUS gentiles, Eze. 23;45, Eze. 16;40-42 became SAINTS to follow CHRIST our LORD!

·        THEREFORE David is progressing as David prophesied, 2 Sam 22;40-44

Ps. 132; 10-For thy servant David’s sake turn not away the face of thine anointed.

11 -The LORD hath sworn in truth unto David; he will not turn from it; Of the fruit of thy body will I set upon thy throne.

12 -If thy children will keep my covenant and my testimony that I shall teach them, their children shall also sit upon thy throne for evermore.

13-For the LORD hath chosen Zion; he hath desired it for his habitation.

14-This is my rest for ever: here will I dwell; for I have desired it.

15 -I will abundantly bless her provision: I will satisfy her poor with bread.

16 -I will also clothe her priests with salvation: and her saints shall shout aloud for joy.

17 -There will I make the horn of David to bud: I have ordained a lamp for mine anointed.

18 -His enemies will I clothe with shame: but upon himself shall his crown flourish.

 

 

SUPPLICATIONS would be MADE FOR David

HIS SAINTS would MAKE SUPPLICATIONS, then LORD WOULD

PRESERVE the FAITHFUL

And PLENTIFULLY REWARD the PROUD, VS. 23!

Ps. 31; 22-For I said in my haste, I am cut off from before thine eyes: nevertheless thou heardest the voice of my supplications when I cried unto thee.

 

David ENCOURAGES the GENTILES and ISRAEL

To STRENGTHEN THEIR HEARTS, all who HOPE IN CHRIST our LORD

Ps. 31; 23- O love the LORD, all ye his saints: for the LORD preserveth the faithful, and plentifully rewardeth the proud doer.

 24 -Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the LORD.

 

CONCLUSION

Exploits of Philadelphia Church of God (as ISRAEL, Rom.9;4-7) are based on WORDS of H. W. Armstrong and Gerald Flurry, WHICH WOULD NEVER COME TO PASS!

 

But Exploits of strangers joined to ISRAEL, Rom.11; 17-22, by BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST, Eph. 2;11-13, as David prophesied, 2 Sam 22: 40-44 are based on WORD OF GOD, are SURE TESTIMONIES of JESUS CHRIST , Rev. 19;10.

 

Ahithophel, Shimei, Absalom laid a net (conspired), Ps. 31;4, to make David fall into INIQUITY of ADULTERY with Bathsheba, followed by planned murder of URIAH.

BUT David readily REPENTED and continued to serve GOD OF WHOLE EARTH, according to GOD ORDAINED STATUTES, in WORD OF GOD!

 

David encouraged those under David (even those serving now---GENTILES of Rev. 11;1-4 serve Now) and we heed to David’s admonishing!

 

LORD blessed David with those gentiles to SERVE as David would do IN THE SURE COVENANT, -----for David type JUST MEN who are READY TO FORGIVE, READY TO REPENT, are to RULE in GOD’S CHURCH according to WORD OF GOD!

 

David’s COVENANT is FOREVER

2Ch 13:5 -Ought ye not to know that the LORD God of Israel gave the kingdom over Israel to David forever, even to him and to his sons by a covenant of salt?

 

In a COVENANT OF SALT all should have PEACE

It is a COVENANT OF PEACE

Mt 5:13 -Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.

Mr 9:50  Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his saltness, wherewith will ye season it? Have salt in yourselves, and have peace one with another.

 

 

 

2Ch 21:7 -Howbeit the LORD would not destroy the house of David, because of the covenant that he had made with David, and as he promised to give a light to him and to his sons forever.

·        David’s Covenant for rulers to be as David is A SURE COVENANT FOREVER!

 

 

 

Ps 89:3 -I have made a covenant with my chosen, I have sworn unto David my servant,

 

LORD to be PRAISED in heaven and earth

PCG SHOULD GIVE UP Praising H. W. Armstrong!

 

Ps. 89: 3  I have made a covenant with my chosen, I have sworn unto David my servant,

4  Thy seed will I establish for ever, and build up thy throne to all generations. Selah.

5 -And the heavens shall praise thy wonders, O LORD: thy faithfulness also in the congregation of the saints.

6  For who in the heaven can be compared unto the LORD? who among the sons of the mighty can be likened unto the LORD?

7  God is greatly to be feared in the assembly of the saints, and to be had in reverence of all them that are about him.

8  O LORD God of hosts, who is a strong LORD like unto thee? or to thy faithfulness round about thee?

9  Thou rulest the raging of the sea: when the waves thereof arise, thou stillest them.

10  Thou hast broken Rahab in pieces, as one that is slain; thou hast scattered thine enemies with thy strong arm.

11  The heavens are thine, the earth also is thine: as for the world and the fulness thereof, thou hast founded them.

 

 

Isa 54:10 --For the mountains shall depart, and the hills be removed; but my kindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall the covenant of my peace be removed, saith the LORD that hath mercy on thee.

Eze 34:25--And I will make with them a covenant of peace, and will cause the evil beasts to cease out of the land:

·        BEASTS are RULERS, LEADERS who have NO UNDERSTANDING, Ps. 49;20

 

CHRIST our LORD REQUIRES PEACE with HIM and with ONE ANOTHER

Eze 37:26 -Moreover I will make a covenant of peace with them; it shall be an everlasting covenant with them: and I will place them, and multiply them, and will set my sanctuary in the midst of them for evermore.

 

 

COVENANT of Levi---Mal 2: 4  And ye shall know that I have sent this commandment unto you, that my covenant might be with Levi, saith the LORD of hosts.

5 -My covenant was with him of life and peace; and I gave them to him for the fear wherewith he feared me, and was afraid before my name.

·        PCG MINISTRY AS Levi should FEAR CHRIST our LORD the CREATOR, not H. W. Armstrong or Gerald Flurry!

 

 

Mal. 2; 6 -The law of truth was in his mouth, and iniquity was not found in his lips: he walked with me in peace and equity, and did turn many away from iniquity.

7 -For the priest’s lips should keep knowledge, and they should seek the law at his mouth: for he is the messenger of the LORD of hosts.

8 -But ye are departed out of the way; ye have caused many to stumble at the law; ye have corrupted the covenant of Levi, saith the LORD of hosts.

9 -Therefore have I also made you contemptible and base before all the people, according as ye have not kept my ways, but have been partial in the law.

10 -Have we not all one father? hath not one God created us? why do we deal treacherously every man against his brother, by profaning the covenant of our fathers?

·        CHRIST the CREATOR GOD became FLESH to MAKE HIS ONE OFFERING, for a SECOND COVENANT, Heb. 10: 7-10, 14, WHICH would be the COVENANT OF PEACE!

 

FATHER and MESSIAH are ONE- Isa. 9: 6, Isa. 63; 16, Gal 4: 4,5. Rev. 1: 18, 8-Zec 14; 9, Isa. 40: 28, Isa. 43: 15, Rev. 19: 4-6, 16, Jo 10: 30 

1Ti 2:5- For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;

He is the MEDIATOR of COVENANT who came as DIVINE MESSENGER, to purify Levi, Mal 3: 1-5. 

·        People of His are to be BAPTIZED to LIVING ALMIGHTY who WAS IN CHRIST to pave the WAY TO BE BAPTIZED UNTO THE NAME OF MEDIATOR CHRIST , as it is CHRIST, as GOD IN FLESH made HIS SACRIFICE and shed BLOOD OF COVENANT!

·        1 Ti 2: 5, 1 Ti 3: 16 to be established in 2nd COVENANT 

For in Him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily, Col 2: 9, And ye are complete in Him, which is the head of all principality and power, vs.10. 

 

 

GOD and JESUS CHRIST are ONE

As JESUS CHRIST as a man became the MEDIATOR

1 Ti 2;5- For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;

6 -Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time

·        JESUS CHRIST as GOD in FLESH, gave Himself

 

Rom.  8;3--God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:

·        CHRIST as a man, taught people of sin, ----diseases, evil spirits caused by sin! ---WORDS of HIS DISCIPLES teaches WORD OF JESUS CHRIST !

·        Today too LEARNING FROM SCRIPTURES, Levi should teach GOD’S PEOPLE of WORDS OF JESUS CHRIST , to be strengthened in NEW COVENANT 

·        FOR JESUS CHRIST IS MEDIATOR! 1 Ti 2;5

·        It is JESUS CHRIST who paid the PENALTY for OUR SINS, for NO OTHER SACRIFICE could FORGIVE SINS,

·        We see CRUCIFIED CHRIST forgives when you are CRUCIFIED with HIM, Rom.  6;6, 7

·        Then you are FREED FROM SIN, so that you SERVE IN RIGHTEOUSNESS!

·        Then a NEW LAW exists, ---Rom.  8;2--LAW OF SPIRIT OF LIFE of JESUS CHRIST makes you FREE from LAW OF SIN AND DEATH, Rom.  8;2

·        That is---we should see how JESUS CHRIST lived----He did not sin---He forgave---He kept service of God—He kept SABBATHS and LAWS of GOD—all laws are to be kept in LOVE, HAVING PEACE with ONE ANOTHER!

Mt 5:17 --Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.

 

1 Ti 3;16- And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.

·        JESUS CHRIST was the EXAMPLE of understanding GODLINESS—

·        HE KEPT LAWS HE CREATED in OLD COVENANT with PEACE WITH OTHERS, SUFFERING for HIS PEOPLE to make them SERVE GOD WITHOUT SIN!

·        HE MADE THE PERFECT SACRIFICE to enable us to ENTER HIS REST, Heb. 4

 

 

Ro 8:8 -So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.

Those who have LUSTS OF FLESH cannot PLEASE GOD!

Acts. 2;38, 39 teaches that HOLY SPIRIT is given when baptized to JESUS CHRIST

THEN you become SPIRIT, spiritual---1 Co 15; 44-46

·        When HOLY SPIRIT is given, YOU BEGIN to LIVE IN SPIRIT!

·        You should not look back like how LOT’S WIFE DID!

Ro 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.

 

Again --

Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of His

·      So it is VITAL that we RECEIVE HIS HOLY SPIRIT to LIVE ACCORDING to HOLY SPIRIT!

 

But it was PROPHESIED that SOME WOULD DEPART

From FAITH, ---so that prophecy FULFILLED!

We ought to understand—ALL PROPHECIES FULFILL for they

TEACH US NOT TO FALL from faith!

When some ERR---it is wickedness against CHRIST

When some have faith---it is Righteousness they learnt from CHRIST

 

Thus CHRIST our LORD DIVIDES Righteousness and Wickedness

 

LATTER TIMES some depart from FAITH, 1 Ti 4; 1-3

Such people married again, Rom.  7;3,

Against marriage of JESUS CHRIST, Rom.  7;4

1 Ti 4; 1 --Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;

2-Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;

3 -Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.

·        They FORBID to marry JESUS CHRIST, being freed from law, Rom.  7;4

·        They refuse to KEEP LAW OF SPIRIT of LIFE in JESUS CHRIST, Rom.  8;2—for they DID NOT HONOUR ALL WORDS of HIS BAPTISM, and thus did not receive HOLY SPIRIT, Acts. 2;38, 39

·        For instance ---as needed in Rom.  6; 19—they did not yield to be Righteous, but---because of the infirmity of flesh: -- ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity;

 

That is NOT UNDERSTANDING WORD OF GOD to be DOERS of WORD!

·      WE ARE TO COMPLETELY REMOVE SIN on days of Unleavened Bread 

·      Seven days are given NOT TO ADD SIN—

·      BUT TO REMOVE SIN in FLESH!!

 

 

Mal. 2; 11 -Judah hath dealt treacherously, and an abomination is committed in Israel and in Jerusalem; for Judah hath profaned the holiness of the LORD which he loved, and hath married the daughter of a strange god.

·       Judah is represented by Philadelphia Church of God

Gerald Flurry wrote in Hosea booklet-- Judah is not where Arafat was a leading terrorist in Middle East JUDAH WAS THE ONLY TRIBE OF ISRAEL LEFT TO DIRECT THE WORLD TO THE TRUE GOD. ----GOD’S TRUE CHURCH HAS THAT RESPONSIBILITY TODAY.  ”----

That is the relationship!

PCG IS RESPONSIBLE TODAY! -----BUT WHAT HAS JUDAH DONE? Jer 17:1) The sin of Judah is written with a pen of iron, and with the point of a diamond: it is graven upon the table of their heart, and upon the horns of your altars;

 

Gerald Flurry knowing church represent Judah

Made church to be led by H. W. Armstrong and himself!

Therefore Gerald Flurry was cut off

Mal. 2; 12 -The LORD will cut off the man that doeth this, the master and the scholar, out of the tabernacles of Jacob, and him that offereth an offering unto the LORD of hosts.

13 -And this have ye done again, covering the altar of the LORD with tears, with weeping, and with crying out, insomuch that he regardeth not the offering any more, or receiveth it with good will at your hand.

·        Gerald Flurry WAS MADE AS A CHERUB, but he was thrown out of HOLY MOUNTAIN ---

 

Read in

Gerald Flurry as CHERUB fell from heaven, (From No. 1235)

PCG leader as Tyrus, Eze.28;12, was made as a CHERUB Eze.28:14, his heart lifted up because of Trafficking books which made him rich, and he SET his heart as HEART OF GOD, vs. 6, LORD appointed some to SLAY him, for his destruction, vs. 9,

Eze.28;16--multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub—17-- I will cast thee to the ground

Eze. 28;18--therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee.

 

 

Read in No. 1235--PART 2-----WOULD a CHERUB in GOD’S MOUNTAIN PRESERVE men’s books and men’s things serving GOD OF WHOLE EARTH??

Gerald Flurry wrote of “Satanic force” in “God’s own church”, -as Apostasy in God’s own church he wrote of “Evil force which nobody knows

No. 1235 in www.restoringcaptivity.com

 

 

 

·        Gerald Flurry ERRONEOUSLY 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 bible-and  BELIEVE THAT- CHRIST,  as 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, and NEW ARK, Rev. 11; 19!

Gerald Flurry thus made COVENANT of Levi too to be

Broken as ministry were forced to hear his words!

 

Mal. 2; 14 -Yet ye say, Wherefore? Because the LORD hath been witness between thee and the wife of thy youth, against whom thou hast dealt treacherously: yet is she thy companion, and the wife of thy covenant.

15 -And did not he make one? Yet had he the residue of the spirit. And wherefore one? That he might seek a godly seed. Therefore take heed to your spirit, and let none deal treacherously against the wife of his youth.

 

Read the many articles written on SPIRITUAL HARLOTRY and WHOREDOM of GOD’S CHURCH in recent articles!

·        BY THOSE ACTS, LORD TEACHES UNCLEANNESS of men and women too, read in Lev. 15, 17, 18, 19, 20!

 

In a second time CHRIST our LORD came to give SALVATION, Heb. 9;28

 

Heb 13:20 -Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant,

·        So CHRIST our LORD is NOW TEACHING of HIS COUNSELS for SECOND COVENANT!

 

By worshipping men in church

According to the command of Gerald Flurry in PCG,

Levi in Church as the WIFE OF COVENANT of  HIS YOUTH

Had PROFANED THE NAME OF CHRIST our LORD 

 

Covenant of Levi is corrupted

Mal. 2; 6 -The law of truth was in his mouth, and iniquity was not found in his lips: he walked with me in peace and equity, and did turn many away from iniquity.

7 -For the priest’s lips should keep knowledge, and they should seek the law at his mouth: for he is the messenger of the LORD of hosts.

8 -But ye are departed out of the way; ye have caused many to stumble at the law; ye have corrupted the covenant of Levi, saith the LORD of hosts

THESE COUNSELS of JESUS CHRIST teaches

All in EVERLASTING COVENANT to be VERY ATTENTIVE

To HIS WORDS!

Mal. 2; 11 -Judah hath dealt treacherously, and an abomination is committed in Israel and in Jerusalem; for Judah hath profaned the holiness of the LORD which he loved, and hath married the daughter of a strange god.

12 -The LORD will cut off the man that doeth this, the master and the scholar, out of the tabernacles of Jacob, and him that offereth an offering unto the LORD of hosts.

 

 

·        By these AWESOME COUNSELS would MAKE PEOPLE OF COVENANT OF GOD to SERVE PERFECTLY –

·        WITH FEAR OF GOD!! Amen.

 

In all above we see proud and wicked people who work with their own counsels would end in death, while those who repent and turn to be faithful would be established in the covenant.

Therefore WORD OF GOD is sharper and powerful and quickens to live, Heb 4;12, 13,  so that they are blessed to serve God of whole earth living in Righteousness whose fruits are UNTO HOLINESS, Ro 6:19-23.

 

Ex 31:13  Speak thou also unto the children of Israel, saying, Verily MY SABBATHS ye shall keep: for it is a sign between me and you throughout your generations; that ye may know that I am the LORD that doth sanctify you.

·        Throughout EVERLASTING COVENANT, Isa 59;21, CHRIST our LORD SANCTIFIES His people who would receive SABBATH SIGN, Ex  31;13

 

Men have no power to do anything in the CHURCH, THE WIFE OF CHRIST OUR LORD. CREATOR IS TO BE WORSHIPED, not creatures----, Ro 1:25    Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

 

ALL PRAISE AND HONOUR GLORY AND MAJESTY POWER AND MIGHT BELONGS TO MOST HIGH CREATOR, THE ONLY CELESTIAL KING OF GLORY, Who became THE GREAT LAMB to SAVE HIS CHOSEN PEOPLE AND THE WORLD. AMEN AND AMEN.
