1314 Sinners are to be convicted of their sins through HOLY SPIRIT. EVERLASTING COVENANT is a peaceful Covenant, Eze. 37.PCG had fasted forsaking the ordinances of their God Isa 58.2 Today is FAST OF FOURTH 25th June 2024

 

A COMMANDED FAST--

Zec 8:19  Thus saith the LORD of hosts; The fast of the fourth month, and the fast of the fifth, and the fast of the seventh, and the fast of the tenth, shall be to the house of Judah joy and gladness, and cheerful feasts; therefore love the truth and peace. 

We do FAST FOR CAUSE OF PEACEFUL COVENANT of CHRIST OUR LORD  for which HE MADE THE PERFECT SACRIFICE to bring in PEACE and SALVATION   

 

when LORD says of IMMORAL activities in church, Eze. 22; 8-11--and LORD eradicating LEWDNESS, Eze. 23;45-48, we also should understand THAT LORD HAD GIVEN HOLY SPIRIT as helper and comforter, Jn 14, and 16 , recieving HOLY SPIRIT by COMMANDED BAPTISM, Ac.2.38, 39 is the ANSWER to receive HOLY SPIRIT, to understand THE WORKS OF PREPARATION for PEACEFUL EVERLASTING COVENANT!

 

LORD blesses

WHEN COMMANDED FASTS are DONE

Zec 8:14  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: 

Zec 8:15  So again have I thought in these days to do well unto Jerusalem and to the house of Judah: fear ye not. 

Zec 8:16  These are the things that ye shall do; Speak ye every man the truth to his neighbour; execute the judgment of truth and peace in your gates:

Zec 8:17  And let none of you imagine evil in your hearts against his neighbour; and love no false oath: for all these are things that I hate, saith the LORD. 

 

Today we fast for the cause of LORD’S LAND when lusts of flesh caused by vanity had hindered EVERLASTING COVENANT

Rom_8:20  For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope,

2Pe_2:18  For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the fleshthrough much wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error.

·       (wantonness is immorality –shamelessness--recklessness)

And recklessness is irresponsibility—wildness—thoughtlessness--carelessness

·       So we would see those traits amidst those who are attracted through lusts of flesh!

 

 

Zec 8:17  And let none of you imagine evil in your hearts against his neighbour; and love no false oath: for all these are things that I hate, saith the LORD. 

·       What does LORD HATE?

·       1. Evil against his neighbour—understand from Eze. 33;26— Eze 33:26  Ye stand upon your sword, ye work abomination, and ye defile every one his neighbour's wife: and shall ye possess the land? 

 

·       2. Love of a FALSE OATH—(Oath is Pledge) Prov. 6; 25-29, shows how GOD’S PEOPLE had taken false oaths with neighbour’s wives

 

AND THE WORD OF SPIRIT INSTRUCT HIS PEOPLE

Pro_20:16  Take his garment that is surety for a stranger: and take a pledge of him for a strange woman.

Pro_27:13  Take his garment that is surety for a stranger, and take a pledge of him for a strange woman.

·       Strange woman is compared to NEIGHBOUR’S WIFE, Prov.  6;25-29

 

THE WORD OF GOD advices NOT TO TAKE A PLEDGE (FALSE OATH) with neighbour’s wife--

 

BROTHERS (BRETHREN) ARE ADMONISHED

Pro 6:25  Lust not after her beauty in thine heart; neither let her take thee with her eyelids. 

Pro 6:26  For by means of a whorish woman a man is brought to a piece of bread: and the adulteress will hunt for the precious life. 

Pro 6:27  Can a man take fire in his bosom, and his clothes not be burned? 

Pro 6:28  Can one go upon hot coals, and his feet not be burned? 

Pro 6:29  So he that goeth in to his neighbour's wife; whosoever toucheth her shall not be innocent. 

 

Pro 6:32  But whoso committeth adultery with a woman lacketh understanding: he that doeth it destroyeth his own soul. 

Pro 6:33  A wound and dishonour shall he get; and his reproach shall not be wiped away. 

Pro 6:34  For jealousy is the rage of a man: therefore he will not spare in the day of vengeance

 

·       DAY of VENGEANCE OF HIS is JEALOUSY of CHRIST AS HUSBAND, Isa 54;5, when PCG  became a harlot, Eze. 16;15-36

Isa 54:5  For thy Maker is thine husband; the LORD of hosts is his name; and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel; The God of the whole earth shall he be called. 

 

LORD teaches us through HIS HOLY SPIRIT, how natural adultery AMIDST MINISTRY, through LUSTS OF FLESH, Eze. 33;26, relates to Spiritual  adultery!

 

DAY of VENGEANCE

 

Isa_61:2  To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn;

Isa_63:4  For the day of vengeance is in mine heart, and the year of my redeemed is come.

Jer_46:10  For this is the day of the Lord GOD of hosts, a day of vengeance, that he may avenge him of his adversaries: and the sword shall devour, and it shall be satiate and made drunk with their blood: for the Lord GOD of hosts hath a sacrifice in the north country by the river Euphrates.

 

Read  explanations of Gen 9 in Nos. 1313, 1312 –of Gen. 9: 1-7, Gen 9-17

 

Gen 9:5  And surely your blood of your lives will I require; at the hand of every beast will I require it, and at the hand of man; at the hand of every man's brother will I require the life of man. 

Gen 9:6  Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God made he man. 

Gen 9:7  And you, be ye fruitful, and multiply; bring forth abundantly in the earth, and multiply therein. 

·       Gen. 9; 5-7 REQUIRES TO MULTIPLY fruit of them, TO FILL THE EARTH, people as SABD OF SEA, Gen. 22;17 –read explanations in No.  1313

·       Prov.  1; 10-19 teaches how SINNERS amidst STRANGE WOMEN, makes people shed their OWN BLOOD, --therefore SINNERS as BROTHERS going to neighbours wives SHED THEIR OWN BLOOD, and FORSAKE THE ORDINANCE OF EVERLASTING COVENANT, mentioned in Gen. 9

 

Isa 58. 2—

Isa 58:2  Yet they seek me daily, and delight to know my ways, as a nation that did righteousness, and forsook not the ordinance of their God: they ask of me the ordinances of justice; they take delight in approaching to God. 

·       PCG had fasted APPROACHING GOD on 8th Jan 2012 having forsaken the ORDINANCE of EVERLASTING COVENANT 

Isa 57:21—

Isa 57:21  There is no peace, saith my God, to the wicked.  

Isa 48:22—

Isa 48:22  There is no peace, saith the LORD, unto the wicked. 

 

Gen. 9:1-17 teaches EVERLASTING COVENANT

 

 

EVERLASTING COVENANT

 

Eze. 37:26-28

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. 

Eze 37:27  My tabernacle also shall be with them: yea, I will be their God, and they shall be my people. 

Eze 37:28  And the heathen shall know that I the LORD do sanctify Israel, when my sanctuary shall be in the midst of them for evermore. 

24-25

Eze 37:24  And David my servant shall be king over them; and they all shall have one shepherd: they shall also walk in my judgments, and observe my statutes, and do them. 

Eze 37:25  And they shall dwell in the land that I have given unto Jacob my servant, wherein your fathers have dwelt; and they shall dwell therein, even they, and their children, and their children's children for ever: and my servant David shall be their prince for ever. 

 

Today we fast for the cause of Zion, Zec 8:19.

Vanity of vanities, Ecl 1:1, vanity increases lust of flesh. 2 Pe 2:18

Vanity is given as a hope, Rom. 8:20 to make His people get the help of Helper the HOLY SPIRIT  , Jn. 16, to get His instructions from His wisdom to escape viles of devil, father of lusts, Jn. 8:44 and then to receive salvation in EVERLASTING COVENANT, Eze. 16:60, Isa 59:21, surly LORD demands a reckoning from every man’s brother for LIFE BLOOD, Be fruitful Gen. 9:5-7 (He requires people as sand of sea, Gen. 22)

Therefore Do not shed blood, Gen. 9:5-7, do not entertain ADULTERESSES who shed blood, Eze. 23:45  by them brothers could become crusts of bread, Pr 6:25-29, do not leave your husband JESUS CHRIST to have idols, Rom. 7:3,4 (one who marries another when husband lives is and adulteress, Rom.7;3)

·       PCG  is as they had married H.W. Armstrong, their IDOL (sodomy)

 

Gerald Flurry wrote in RV Jan/Feb 2005—

Page 6— to “SODOM TODAY”—spiritual sodomy is far more than homosexuality---Gen. 18; 20-21 says CRY of Sodom went up to God! –DO YOU THINK that CRY HAS GONE UP TO GOD TODAY?”

 

Comment—when you read (No.  1172) you would see that IT HAD HAPPENED!

CRY of SODOM had gone up to GOD TODAY!

Rom. 1;21-28, and 29-32 had fulfilled in ministry and people of church of God!

 

 

 

CRY OF SODOM

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. W. Armstrong as the IMAGE of BEAST,  Rev. 13, LORD proves gentiles HIS witnesses as not having other gods Isa 43.12

 

So PCG  proves that they had NOT MADE CHILDREN for EVERLASTING COVENANT, but they would be established, Eze. 16;60, it is CHRIST OUR LORD  who would MAKE UNDERSTAND ALL HIS COUNSELS by GIVING HIS HOLY SPIRIT, Acts.  2;38, 39.

 

BUT When they SUFFER WITH HIM, they would be GLORIFIED WITH HIM, Rom. 8;17

 

Now they are as Egyptians, Eze. 23—

Noah's Descendants

Gen 9:18  And the sons of Noah, that went forth of the ark, were Shem, and Ham, and Japheth: and Ham is the father of Canaan

 

LAND OF HAM who is father of Canaan, had power over Egypt

Psa 106:21  They forgat God their saviour, which had done great things in Egypt; ----Psa 106:22  Wondrous works in the land of Hamand terrible things by the Red sea. 

·       ISRAEL was given inheritance in Canaan,

Gen_9:25  And he said, Cursed be Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren.

 

ABRAHAM went to Canaan, Canaan was FRUITFUL for

Generations of ABRAHAM , that was how

Canaan was servant as in Gen. 9;25

Gen_12:5  And Abram took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother's son, and all their substance that they had gathered, and the souls that they had gotten in Haran; and they went forth to go into the land of Canaan; and into the land of Canaan they came.

 

 

The Call of Abram

Gen 12:1  Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee: 

Gen 12:2  And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: 

Gen 12:3  And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed. 

Gen 12:4  So Abram departed, as the LORD had spoken unto him; and Lot went with him: and Abram was seventy and five years old when he departed out of Haran. 

 

Posterity went from ABRAHAM –Isaac—Jacob—Joseph –then to EPHRAIM (Ge 48;20)--

REUBEN lost birthright, it came to EPHRAIM, 1 Ch 5;1, it went to JOSEPH son of RACHEL 

but EPHRAIM DID NOT FIGHT to get INHERITANCE, Joshua 16--therefore IT IS PCG AS FROM CANAAN who gets blessings due to EPHRAIM, as WRITTEN, Eze 16; 3 

Eze 16:3  And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD unto Jerusalem; Thy birth and thy nativity is of the land of Canaan; thy father was an Amorite, and thy mother an Hittite. 

PCG WAS CLEANSED to make the COVENANT--

Eze 16:8  Now when I passed by thee, and looked upon thee, behold, thy time was the time of love; and I spread my skirt over thee, and covered thy nakedness: yea, I sware unto thee, and entered into a covenant with thee, saith the Lord GOD, and thou becamest mine. 
Eze 16:9  Then washed I thee with water; yea, I throughly washed away thy blood from thee, and I anointed thee with oil. 

 

Reuben lost birthright because he lay with Bilhah, Jacob’s concubine , Gen.35; 22, 1 Ch 5;1----today  we see the same sin in 1 Co 5;1--

1Ch 5:1  Now the sons of Reuben the firstborn of Israel, (for he was the firstborn; but, forasmuch as he defiled his father's bed, his birthright was given unto the sons of Joseph the son of Israel: and the genealogy is not to be reckoned after the birthright. 

 

Gen 35:22  And it came to pass, when Israel dwelt in that land, that Reuben went and lay with Bilhah his father's concubine: and Israel heard it. Now the sons of Jacob were twelve: 

 

When 1 Co 5;1 is the same sin as REUBEN’S, CHRIST OUR LORD HAD PAVED THEM A WAY to be SAVED through CHRIST OUR PASSOVER, VS 7 –

 

PCG  is portrayed as Egypt, Rev.  11;8, Lam. 5;6

·       Lam,5 teaches the condition of PCG –as Egyptians and ASSYRIANS

Lam 5:6  We have given the hand to the Egyptians, and to the Assyrians, to be satisfied with bread. 

Lam 5:7  Our fathers have sinned, and are not; and we have borne their iniquities. 

Lam 5:8  Servants have ruled over us: there is none that doth deliver us out of their hand. 

·       Gentiles are ruling, Isa 3;4, 12 (Isa 3:12  As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths.)

 

Lam 5:9  We gat our bread with the peril of our lives because of the sword of the wilderness. (gentiles send FOOD to PCG –

·       Eze 30:9  In that day shall messengers go forth from me in ships to make the careless Ethiopians afraid, and great pain shall come upon them, as in the day of Egypt: for, lo, it cometh. 

·       Ships of Tarshish sends food with peril of lives, Lam. 5;9

 

Lam 5:10  Our skin was black like an oven because of the terrible famine. 

·       Famine of word, Amos 8;11 had come to PCG !

 

Other curses too are seen now!

Lam 5:11  They ravished the women in Zion, and the maids in the cities of Judah. 

Lam 5:12  Princes are hanged up by their hand: the faces of elders were not honoured. 

Lam 5:13  They took the young men to grind, and the children fell under the wood. 

Lam 5:14  The elders have ceased from the gate, the young men from their musick. 

Lam 5:15  The joy of our heart is ceased; our dance is turned into mourning. 

Lam 5:16  The crown is fallen from our head: woe unto us, that we have sinned! 

Lam 5:17  For this our heart is faint; for these things our eyes are dim. 

Lam 5:18  Because of the mountain of Zion, which is desolate, the foxes walk upon it. 

Lam 5:19  Thou, O LORD, remainest forever; thy throne from generation to generation. 

Lam 5:20  Wherefore dost thou forget us for ever, and forsake us so long time? 

Lam 5:21  Turn thou us unto thee, O LORD, and we shall be turned; renew our days as of old. 

Lam 5:22  But thou hast utterly rejected us; thou art very wroth against us. 

 

 

Sexual Immorality Defiles the Church

1Co 5:1  It is reported commonly that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as is not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one should have his father's wife. 

1Co 5:2  And ye are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he that hath done this deed might be taken away from among you. 

1Co 5:3  For I verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged already, as though I were present, concerning him that hath so done this deed, 

1Co 5:4  In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when ye are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, 

1Co 5:5  To deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus. 

1Co 5:6  Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump? 

1Co 5:7  Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our Passover is sacrificed for us: 

 

·       So such sinners are to be SAVED for EVERLASTING COVENANT when they REPENT and be baptized in the name of JESUS CHRIST, Acts.  2;38, 39,  and receive HOLY SPIRIT , Acts.  2;38, 39, to learn of HIM and STATUTES of HIS PERFECT COVENANT   

·       CHRIST  our PASSOVER needs UNDERSTANDING from WHOLE BIBLE, therefore HE GIVES MANNA to those who REPENT , Rev.  2;17, as EVERY WORD, Deut.  8;3

 

 

Rev 2:17  He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it. 

 

·       Deu 8:3  And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with manna, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know; that he might make thee know that man doth not live by bread only, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the LORD doth man live. 

 

·      We are members of His body, Eph.  5:29-32, each one love your own wife and wife respect husband, Eph.  5:33

 

Let all be as virgins to care for things of LORD, 1 Co 7:34, for HE NEEDS HIS LAND the CHURCH as VIRGINS, Isa 62; 4-5

·      1Co 7:34  There is difference also between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman careth for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit: but she that is married careth for the things of the world, how she may please her husband. 

·      Isa 62:5  For as a young man marrieth a virginso shall thy sons marry thee: and as the bridegroom rejoiceth over the bride, so shall thy God rejoice over thee. 

 

 

 

Zion's Coming Salvation

Isa 62:1  For Zion's sake will I not hold my peace, and for Jerusalem's sake I will not rest, until the righteousness thereof go forth as brightness, and the salvation thereof as a lamp that burneth. 

Isa 62:2  And the Gentiles shall see thy righteousness, and all kings thy glory: and thou shalt be called by a new name, which the mouth of the LORD shall name. 

Isa 62:3  Thou shalt also be a crown of glory in the hand of the LORD, and a royal diadem in the hand of thy God. 

Isa 62:4  Thou shalt no more be termed Forsaken; neither shall thy land any more be termed Desolate: but thou shalt be called Hephzibah, and thy

land Beulah: for the LORD delighteth in thee, and thy land shall be married. 

 

·      Isa 62:5  For as a young man marrieth a virginso shall thy sons marry thee: and as the bridegroom rejoiceth over the bride, so shall thy God rejoice over thee. 

 

GENTILES were SET AS WATCHMEN over PCG  

Isa 62:6  I have set watchmen upon thy walls, O Jerusalem, which shall never hold their peace day nor night: ye that make mention of the LORD, keep not silence, 

Isa 62:7  And give him no rest, till he establish, and till he make Jerusalem a praise in the earth. 

 

 

Isa 62:10  Go through, go through the gates; prepare ye the way of the people; cast up, cast up the highway; gather out the stones; lift up a standard for the people. 

Isa 62:11  Behold, the LORD hath proclaimed unto the end of the world, Say ye to the daughter of Zion, Behold, thy salvation cometh; behold, his reward is with him, and his work before him. 

Isa 62:12  And they shall call them, The holy people, The redeemed of the LORD: and thou shalt be called, Sought out, A city not forsaken. 

 

 

Isa 54:5  For thy Maker is thine husband; the LORD of hosts is his name; and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel; The God of the whole earth shall he be called. 

 

Wife of LORD was forsaken for a small moment, Isa 54; 7

Because she was MADE AS A WOMAN

grieved in SPIRIT, wife of youth, who did not travail with child,vv.1,6,

ALL FLESH had to be MADE UNDERSTOOD of A VIRTUOS WOMAN whom

LORD MAKES THROUGH HIS SPIRIT

 

THAT IS MAN cannot make a PERFECT WIFE FOR JESUS CHRIST

 

The Eternal Covenant of Peace

Isa 54:1  Sing, O barren, thou that didst not bear; break forth into singing, and cry aloud, thou that didst not travail with child: for more are the children of the desolate than the children of the married wife, saith the LORD. 

Isa 54:2  Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations: spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes; 

Isa 54:3  For thou shalt break forth on the right hand and on the left; and thy seed shall inherit the Gentiles, and make the desolate cities to be inhabited. 

Isa 54:4  Fear not; for thou shalt not be ashamed: neither be thou confounded; for thou shalt not be put to shame: for thou shalt forget the shame of thy youth, and shalt not remember the reproach of thy widowhood any more. 

Isa 54:5  For thy Maker is thine husband; the LORD of hosts is his name; and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel; The God of the whole earth shall he be called. 

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. 

Isa 54:7  For a small moment have I forsaken thee; but with great mercies will I gather thee. 

 

 

Read Isa 58 to understand fastings of PCG, written in this article

 

The EVERLASTING COVENANT needs LIFE AND PEACE, not to destroy LIFE, Gen. 9; 5-7.

Adulteresses shed blood, Eze. 23;45, and men (neighbours, Prov.  6; 25-29) who commit sin with them, do so because of carnal mind, Rom. 8; 7, 8

They are brethren, Prov.  6; 12-19 (vs 19- Pro 6:19 -A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren). Prov. 6; 26- adulteress will hunt for the precious life. Pro 6:27  Can a man take fire in his bosom, and his clothes not be burned? 

Pro 6:28  Can one go upon hot coals, and his feet not be burned? Pro 6:29  So he that goeth in to his neighbour's wife; whosoever toucheth her shall not be innocent

·       The above adulteress is neighbour’s wife, who would HUNT for A BROTHER’S LIFE, Gen.9; 5-6

 

Gen. 9;5--at the hand of every man's brother will I require the life of man. Gen 9:6  Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed:

·       neighbour’s wife, who would HUNT for A BROTHER’S LIFE, Gen.9; 5-6

No. 1313 Explained how brothers causes neighbour’s wives to shed BLOOD OF LIFE, (Gen. 9; 4-6) and Prov. 1: 8-19, vs 11 shows-- Pro 1:11  If they say, Come with us, let us lay wait for blood, let us lurk privily for the innocent without cause:--vs 19 shows ” they lay wait for their own blood; they lurk privily for their own lives ‘.

·      That is destruction of BLOOD of LIFE---the BLOOD OF A NEXT GENERATION, of man and woman who entice man!! (those who commit the sin do not want babies!) but LORD requires people as sand of sea, Gen. 22.17,

The EVERLASTING COVENANT needs LIFE AND PEACE, NOT TO DESTROY LIFE, Gen. 9; 5-7.

 

If we see life of David—

We see how LORD’S  COUNSELS for David were according to EVERLASTING COVENANT --

2Sa 11:4  And David sent messengers, and took her; and she came in unto him, and he lay with her; for she was purified from her uncleanness: and she returned unto her house. 

2Sa 11:5  And the woman conceived, and sent and told David, and said, I am with child. 

·      We see in above words, that NEITHER David nor BATHSHEBA planned to END the BLOOD OF LIFE of a baby, she conceived! (According to Gen. 9;5-6, and Prov. .1;11, 19, NO SHEDDING of BLOOD occurred)

Therefore Judgment of WORD OF LORD is—2 Sam 12;13-- The LORD also hath put away thy sin; thou shalt not die. 

 

REMEMBER LORD made a COVENANT FOREVER with David-- 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.

·      EVERLASTING COVENANT with David –2 Ch 21;7

·      And LORD came as BRANCH OF David—Jer.  33;15

as BRANCH OF DAVID, name of CHRIST OUR LORD should NOT BE DEFILED, therefore DAVID was PARDONED and CLEANSED also, Read in ps 51. 

In COVENANT with David to be continued forever, David should not DEFILE the COVENANT,  by SHEDDING BLOOD OF LIFE (destroying BLOOD OF LIFE, Gen. 9;5-7) and David did not destroy that life when Bathsheba conceived, for EVERLASTING COVENANT needed TO MULTIPLY FRUIT OF BODY, Gen. 9;7 (we see LORD had not allowed David to defile COVENANT)

Gen 9:7  And you, be ye fruitful, and multiply; bring forth abundantly in the earth, and multiply therein. 

·       When the COMMAND is to MULTIPLY and BE FRUITFUL, people NOW have NO RIGHT to DESTROY BABIES!!

·       Look at Eze. 16;15, Eze. 22:  sins of adultery, and idolatry, do we think that they HAD HEEDED TO Gen. 9; 7--

 

Eze 22:8  Thou hast despised mine holy things, and hast profaned my sabbaths. 

Eze 22:9  In thee are men that carry tales to shed blood: and in thee they eat upon the mountains: in the midst of thee they commit lewdness. 

Eze 22:10  In thee have they discovered their fathers' nakedness: in thee have they humbled her that was set apart for pollution. 

Eze 22:11  And one hath committed abomination with his neighbour's wife; and another hath lewdly defiled his daughter in law; and another in thee hath humbled his sister, his father's daughter. 

Eze 22:12  In thee have they taken gifts to shed blood; thou hast taken usury and increase, and thou hast greedily gained of thy neighbours by extortion, and hast forgotten me, saith the Lord GOD. 

 

 

The Lord's Eternal Covenant with David

 

Read and learn NOT TO DEFILE LORD’S COVENANT with David

LORD did not allow David to defile Covenant of LORD

For HE WAS COMING AS BRANCH OF David to STRENGTHEN COVENANT which had been DEFILED BY

GENERATIONS of all ISRAEL, Dan 9;11

Jer 33:14  Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will perform that good thing which I have promised unto the house of Israel and to the house of Judah. 

Jer 33:15  In those days, and at that time, will I cause the Branch of righteousness to grow up unto David; and he shall execute judgment and righteousness in the land. 

Jer 33:16  In those days shall Judah be saved, and Jerusalem shall dwell safely: and this is the name wherewith she shall be called, The LORD our righteousness. 

Jer 33:17  For thus saith the LORD; David shall never want a man to sit upon the throne of the house of Israel; 

·       There would also be someone to perform CHARGE of David according to 1 Ch 23; 30-31-- stand every morning to thank and praise the LORD, and likewise at even; -- sabbaths, in the new moons, and on the set feasts, by number,----

 

David Prophesied of gentiles—

Psa 22:1--A Psalm of David.

Psa 22:30  A seed shall serve him; it shall be accounted to the Lord for a generation. ---(Ps. 48; 7-14—ships of Tarshish broken to walk about Zion to declare next generation)--

Psa 22:31  They shall come, and shall declare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born, that he hath done this. 

·       Today ships of Tarshish perform the charge of LORD as David performed in 1 Ch 23;30-31

 

And CHRIST OUR LORD  would STRENGTHEN HIS MINISTRY

AMIDST ISRAEL on DAY of LORD  

 

Jer 33:18  Neither shall the priests the Levites want a man before me to offer burnt offerings, and to kindle meat offerings, and to do sacrifice continually. 

Jer 33:19  And the word of the LORD came unto Jeremiah, saying, 

Jer 33:20  Thus saith the LORD; If ye can break my covenant of the day, and my covenant of the night, and that there should not be day and night in their season; 

Jer 33:21  Then may also my covenant be broken with David my servant, that he should not have a son to reign upon his throne; and with the Levites the priests, my ministers

Jer 33:22  As the host of heaven cannot be numbered, neither the sand of the sea measured: so will I multiply the seed of David my servant, and the Levites that minister unto me. 

·      MULTIPLY LEVITES LIKE SAND OF SEA, Jer. 33;22—like for COVENANT with ABRAHAM,  people to be as sand of sea, Gen. 22;17----no more killing babies!! ---NO MORE ADULTERIES, AND ADULTERESSES SHEDDING BLOOD, would be allowed, Eze. 23;45-48,

Eze 23:45 -And the righteous men, they shall judge them after the manner of adulteresses, and after the manner of women that shed blood; because they are adulteresses, and blood is in their hands

Eze 23:46 -For thus saith the Lord GOD; I will bring up a company upon them, and will give them to be removed and spoiled. 

Eze 23:47  And the company shall stone them with stones, and dispatch them with their swords; they shall slay their sons and their daughters, and burn up their houses with fire. 

Eze 23:48  Thus will I cause lewdness to cease out of the land, that all women may be taught not to do after your lewdness

Eze 23:49  And they shall recompense your lewdness upon you, and ye shall bear the sins of your idols: and ye shall know that I am the Lord GOD. 

·      Harlotry and Idols! ---this is what we see in Eze. 16; 15-59

 

·      We should learn the lesson from David ----people of Covenant SHOULD NOT DEFILE EVERLASTING COVENANT, by destroying BLOOD OF LIFE!

·      But David was given a punishment to SHAME David---

2Sa 12:9  Wherefore hast thou despised the commandment of the LORD, to do evil in his sight? thou hast killed Uriah the Hittite with the sword, and hast taken his wife to be thy wife, and hast slain him with the sword of the children of Ammon. 

2Sa 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. 

2Sa 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. (David was shamed)

2Sa 12:12  For thou didst it secretly: but I will do this thing before all Israel, and before the sun. 

2Sa 12:13  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. 

2Sa 12:14  Howbeit, because by this deed thou hast given great occasion to the enemies of the LORD to blaspheme, the child

 also that is born unto thee shall surely die.  (a defiled child should not be with David!) we should see the LINES IN BETWEEN to understand HOW THE CREATOR PRESERVES COVENANT with DAVID, 

 

we know how Sarah, and Rebecah was saved from kings, Gen. 12; 11-20, (Sarah saved From Pharaoh) Gen. 20 (Sarah saved

 from Abimelech) , Rebekah saved from people of Abimelech, Ge 26; 6-17)

 when we wisely understand, our LORD had PRESERVED mothers of people of COVENANT , from being POLLUTED BY ADULTEROUS MEN!

 

Nathan Rebukes David

2Sa 12:1 -And the LORD sent Nathan unto David. (PLEASE READ vv 2-12)

2Sa 12:13  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. 

2Sa 12:14  Howbeit, because by this deed thou hast given great occasion to the enemies of the LORD to blaspheme, the child also that is born unto thee shall surely die. 

2Sa 12:18  And it came to pass on the seventh day, that the child died.

 

Warnings Against Adultery

Pro 6:20  My son, keep thy father's commandment, and forsake not the law of thy mother: 

Pro 6:21  Bind them continually upon thine heart, and tie them about thy neck. 

Pro 6:22  When thou goest, it shall lead thee; when thou sleepest, it shall keep thee; and when thou awakest, it shall talk with thee. 

Pro 6:23  For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life: 

Pro 6:24  To keep thee from the evil woman, from the flattery of the tongue of a strange woman. 

Pro 6:25  Lust not after her beauty in thine heart; neither let her take thee with her eyelids. 

Pro 6:26  For by means of a whorish woman a man is brought to a piece of bread: and the adulteress will hunt for the precious life. 

  

THIS IS WHAT LORD SAYS OF THE FASTINGS OF Philadelphia Church of God  

Isa 58

 

True and False Fasting

Isa 58:1  Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and shew my people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins. 

Isa 58:2  Yet they seek me daily, and delight to know my ways, as a nation that did righteousness, and forsook not the ordinance of their God: they ask of me the ordinances of justice; they take delight in approaching to God. 

·       PCG  fasted on 8th Jan 2012

 

Their fastings cannot be accepted by LORD

Isa 58:3  Wherefore have we fasted, say they, and thou seest not? wherefore have we afflicted our soul, and thou takest no knowledge? Behold, in the day of your fast ye find pleasure, and exact all your labours. 

Isa 58:4  Behold, ye fast for strife and debate, and to smite with the fist of wickedness: ye shall not fast as ye do this day, to make your voice to be heard on high. 

Isa 58:5  Is it such a fast that I have chosen? a day for a man to afflict his soul? is it to bow down his head as a bulrush, and to spread sackcloth and ashes under him? wilt thou call this a fast, and an acceptable day to the LORD? 

 

GOD’S PEOPLE are to CORRECT themselves WHEN FASTING

Isa 58:6  Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke? 

Isa 58:7  Is it not to deal thy bread to the hungry, and that thou bring the poor that are cast out to thy house? when thou seest the naked, that thou cover him; and that thou hide not thyself from thine own flesh

·       PCG  disfellowshipped us –PCG  leader has to CALL US BACK!!

 

WICKED DEEDS cannot BRING RIGHTEOUSNESS  

When you correct, LORD would answer

Isa 58:8  Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thine health shall spring forth speedily: and thy righteousness shall go before thee; the glory of the LORD shall be thy rereward. 

Isa 58:9  Then shalt thou call, and the LORD shall answer; thou shalt cry, and he shall say, Here I am. If thou take away from the midst of thee the yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and speaking vanity; 

 

All Is Vanity

Ecc 1:1  The words of the Preacher, the son of David, king in Jerusalem. 

Ecc 1:2  Vanity of vanities, saith the Preacher, vanity of vanities; all is vanity. 

Ecc 1:3  What profit hath a man of all his labour which he taketh under the sun? 

Ecc 1:4  One generation passeth away, and another generation cometh: but the earth abideth for ever. 

 

Vanity causes LUSTS OF FLESH

2Pe_2:18  For when they speak great swelling words of vanitythey allure through the lusts of the flesh, through much wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error.

·       Clean people separated from those who have LUSTS OF FLESH when they BECAME VAIN!!

 

But, vanity is given as A HOPE---Rom_8:20  For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope,

 

Romans 8:18-30

HOPING FOR THE COMPLETED REDEMPTION

THROUGH SACRIFICE of JESUS CHRIST for Future Glory

 

Read in Rom. 8; 18-30 the MARVELOUS COUNSEL

Of CHRIST OUR LORD to PURIFY HIS PREDESTINED as

SONS of GOD through HIS SACRIFICE

Rom 8:18  For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. 

Rom 8:19  For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God. 

 

THEREFORE LORD ALLOWED VANITY as a HOPE

Rom 8:20  For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope, 

Rom 8:21  Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. 

Rom 8:22  For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now. 

Rom 8:23  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. 

Rom 8:24  For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for? 

Rom 8:25  But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it. 

 

LORD makes people search for HIS HOLY SPIRIT

To SAVE THEM   

Creation was subjected to vanity(futility), Rom. 8:20

·      That is CALLED, PREDESTINED brethren became VAIN in their works

·      AND VAINTY attracts LUSTS of FLESH

2Pe 2:18  For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through much wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error. 

·      2 Pe 2;18 shows RIGHTEOUS AND WICKED who had much wantonness SEPARATED!! (LORD divides good and evil through lusts of people!)

·      It is FOR A SPECIAL REASON---

Because 1st fruits SHOULD receive SPIRIT, Rom. 8:23, therefore vanity, was given as a hope to receive SPIRIT, Rom. 8:21-25

·      When Judgment came and the sinners began to know their sins, even some had become wretched, and ONLY CHRIST OUR LORD  saves them, Rom. 7; 23-25---THEY ARE TO SEARCH SPIRIT of LORD---

·      So LORD makes them SEARCH HIS SPIRIT, THE HOLY SPIRIT  granting HOLY SPIRIT  through baptism, Acts. 2;38, 39

 

Because SPIRIT helps in out weakness, Rom. 8; 26, SPIRIT helps to search hearts, 27, therefore CHRIST  gives us HOLY SPIRIT  through baptizm, unto HIS NAME, Acts.  2:38,39

Baptism is granted when THEY REPENT

Act 2:38  Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. 

Act 2:39  For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.   

·      Therefore when PEOPLE RECEIVE HOLY SPIRIT, THEY WOULD UNDERSTAND LORD’S MERCY, and No one  (false teachers) is able to separate us from CHRIST , Rom. 8:32-39

 

When HOLY SPIRIT  is received by BAPTISM, honoring

CRUCIFIED  CHRIST, Rom. 6,

WHEN they PUT ON CHRIST by baptism, GAL 3;26-27

THEY WOULD UNDERSTAND the PERFECT COUNSELS of LORD

For PERFECT EVERLASTING COVENANT where PEACE PREVAILS

(NO BROTHER would steal neighbour’s wife!)

(NO ONE WOULD COVET others’ wives)

Then LORD WOULD HAVE UNDEFILED CHILDREN in COVENANT

Which has to LAST FOREVER!

 

SO WE SHOULD SEE why LORD grants HOLY SPIRIT TO KNOW of UNDEFILED EVERLASTING COVENANT of PEACE AND POSPTERITY

 

LAW OF SIN makes one WRETCHED, and it is ONLY CHRIST OUR LORD  saves them, Rom. 7; 22-25, MAKING THEM UNDERSTAND HIS INSTRUCTIONS and REPROOFS for a PERFECT COVENANT making them know through HOLY SPIRIT  which HE GIVES to those who REPENT, Acts.  2;38, 39.

·       And then THE FIRST FRUITS would understand to KEEP HIS STATUTES of COVENANT and PRESERVE LIFE BLOOD, then LORD would see the FRUITS of COVENANT with ALL FLESH,--Gen. 9

 

Gen 9:7  And you, be ye fruitful, and multiply; bring forth abundantly in the earth, and multiply therein. 

Gen 9:8  And God spake unto Noah, and to his sons with him, saying, 

Gen 9:9  And I, behold, I establish my covenant with you, and with your seed after you; 

 

 

We eat flesh at PASSOVER (FLESH of the BODY of CHRIST)

But if you eat from FATHER of LUSTS, Jn. 8;44, you eat

LUSTS OF FLESH through vanity (PRIDE)

2Pe 2:18  For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through much wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error. 

·       VAINTY or PRIDE attracts LUSTS of FLESH

·       (VANITY is –PRIDE—NARCICCISM—SELF-IMPORTANCE---CONCIET—ARROGANCE)

 

SO SUCH AMIDST PREDESTINED would

DEVELOP LUSTS OF FLESH, 2 Pe 2;18 (clean people escape, 2 Pe 2;18)

And PROUD AND CONCEITED do NOT FEAR GOD

And LORD MAKES THEM ASHAMED

Psa_10:4  The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek after God: God is not in all his thoughts.

Psa_73:6  Therefore pride compasseth them about as a chainviolence covereth them as a garment.

Pro_8:13  The fear of the LORD is to hate evilprideand arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.

Pro_11:2  When pride cometh, then cometh shame: but with the lowly is wisdom.

Pro_13:10  Only by pride cometh contention: but with the well advised is wisdom.

 

Therefore those sinners who DO NOT FEAR GOD, are made to be ASHAMED of their lusts of flesh, and when THEY REPENT they are given HOLY SPIRIT , by BAPTISM unto CHRIST, Acts.  2;38, 39, TO UNDERSTAND HIS COUNSELS OF EVERLASTING COVENANT, if they DISOBEY TO WORDS OF HOLY SPIRIT, they would be FOUND ABHORRED by the WORLD, Isa 66; 24.

 

Isa 66:24  And they shall go forth, and look upon the carcases of the men that have transgressed against me: for their worm shall not die, neither shall their fire be quenched; and they shall be an abhorring unto all flesh. 

 

Those who repent and keep statutes of LORD

Worship in EVERLASTING COVENANT, Eze. 16;60

Isa 66:23  And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the LORD. 

 

 

 

 

 

Paul suffered to be glorified—

 

Paul was appointed to suffer for GREAT NAME of LORD (we who are chosen and called are to suffer when HE GRANTS SALVATION, for LORD divides RIGHTEOUSNESS AND WICKEDNESS ---therefore HE had made Righteous vessels (mercy vessels, Rom. 9) –as well as WICKED vessels to divide GOOD and EVIL, so that we in EVERLASTING COVENANT would choose ONLY GOOD and RIGHTEOUS ways to BRING PEACE AND LOVE to HIS COVENANT which would be a PERFECT COVENANT!

(David too was made to suffer greatly, even sinning, read Ps. 51)

All of us predestined are to suffer TOO, even shame for the purpose of EVERLASTING COVENANT, then to be glorified with SACRIFICE OF JESUS CHRIST.

 

 

Paul was to suffer (likewise todays ministry has to suffer to be glorified, Rom. 8;17)

Act 9:13  Then Ananias answered, Paul, I have heard by many of this man, how much evil he hath done to thy saints at Jerusalem: 

Act 9:14  And here he hath authority from the chief priests to bind all that call on thy name. 

Act 9:15  But the Paul said unto him, Go thy way: for he is a chosen vessel unto me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel: 

Act 9:16  For I will shew him how great things he must suffer for my name’s sake. 

 

Paul knew he had to suffer

Act 20:22  And now, behold, I go bound in the spirit unto Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befall me there: 

Act 20:23  Save that the Holy Ghost witnesseth in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions abide me. 

Act 20:24  But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God. 

 

Paul was glad to suffer for the name of JESUS CHRIST

Act 21:10  And as we tarried there many days, there came down from Judaea a certain prophet, named Agabus. 

Act 21:11  And when he was come unto us, he took Paul's girdle, and bound his own hands and feet, and said, Thus saith the Holy Ghost, So shall the Jews at Jerusalem bind the man that owneth this girdle, and shall deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles. 

Act 21:12  And when we heard these things, both we, and they of that place, besought him not to go up to Jerusalem. 

Act 21:13  Then Paul answered, What mean ye to weep and to break mine heart? for I am ready not to be bound only, but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.

 

 

Paul suffered for WORK OF CHRIST  

 

2Co 6:1  We then, as workers together with him, beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain. 

2Co 6:2  (For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.) 

·       For (“He saith” --LORD had Prophesied) for DAY of SALVATION, for the ACCEPTED TIME

·       Paul had to suffer greatly for OUR SAKES—making us know that we predestined too are to suffer to be glorified –some even have to suffer as adulterers! (Hosea was commanded to do so, His 1, Hos 3)

·       David had to suffer, even committing adultery with Bathsheba, and for our benefit he HAD SHOWN OF REPENTANCE, Ps. 51.

 

Ministers of CHRIST are to suffer in different ways

2Co 6:3  Giving no offence in anything, that the ministry be not blamed: 

2Co 6:4  But in all things approving ourselves as the ministers of God, in much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses, 

2Co 6:5  In stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labours, in watchings, in fastings; 

2Co 6:6  By pureness, by knowledge, by longsuffering, by kindness, by the Holy Ghost, by love unfeigned, 

2Co 6:7  By the word of truth, by the power of God, by the armour of righteousness on the right hand and on the left, 

2Co 6:8  By honour and dishonour, by evil report and good report: as deceivers, and yet true; (suffer as RIGHTEOUS or WICKED) WELL, when all understand the works given to everyone, we would know HIS WONDERFUL COUNSELS to bring in SALVATION in a PERFECT COVENANT where everybody would have PEACE and loving kindness!

2Co 6:9  As unknown, and yet well known; as dying, and, behold, we live; as chastened, and not killed; 

2Co 6:10  As sorrowful, yet alway rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing all things. 

2Co 6:11  O ye Corinthians, our mouth is open unto you, our heart is enlarged. 

2Co 6:12  Ye are not straitened in us, but ye are straitened in your own bowels. 

2Co 6:13  Now for a recompence in the same, (I speak as unto my children,) be ye also enlarged. 

 

 

Paul's Sufferings as an Apostle

2Co 11:16  I say again, Let no man think me a fool; if otherwise, yet as a fool receive me, that I may boast myself a little. 

2Co 11:17  That which I speak, I speak it not after the Lord, but as it were foolishly, in this confidence of boasting. 

2Co 11:18  Seeing that many glory after the flesh, I will glory also. 

2Co 11:19  For ye suffer fools gladly, seeing ye yourselves are wise. 

2Co 11:20  For ye suffer, if a man bring you into bondage, if a man devour you, if a man take of you, if a man exalt himself, if a man smite you on the face. 

2Co 11:21  I speak as concerning reproach, as though we had been weak. Howbeit whereinsoever any is bold, (I speak foolishly,) I am bold also. 

2Co 11:22  Are they Hebrews? so am I. Are they Israelites? so am I. Are they the seed of Abraham? so am I. 

2Co 11:23  Are they ministers of Christ? (I speak as a fool) I am more; in labours more abundant, in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequent, in deaths oft. 

2Co 11:24  Of the Jews five times received I forty stripes save one. 

2Co 11:25  Thrice was I beaten with rods, once was I stoned, thrice I suffered shipwreck, a night and a day I have been in the deep; 

2Co 11:26  In journeyings often, in perils of waters, in perils of robbers, in perils by mine own countrymen, in perils by the heathen, in perils in the city, in perils in the wilderness, in perils in the sea, in perils among false brethren; 

2Co 11:27  In weariness and painfulness, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness. 

2Co 11:28  Beside those things that are without, that which cometh upon me daily, the care of all the churches. 

2Co 11:29  Who is weak, and I am not weak? who is offended, and I burn not? 

2Co 11:30  If I must needs glory, I will glory of the things which concern mine infirmities. 

2Co 11:31  The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which is blessed for evermore, knoweth that I lie not.

 

 

SUFFERINGS ARE APPOINTED for ministry

In DAY of SALVATION

1Th 3:3  That no man should be moved by these afflictions: for yourselves know that we are appointed thereunto

1Th 3:4  For verily, when we were with you, we told you before that we should suffer tribulation; even as it came to pass, and ye know.

·       Sufferings are Prophesied and they come to pass!!

 

 

 

 

HOLY SPIRIT  IS GIVEN by baptism, Acts.  2;38, 39

TO HELP our infirmities

Rom 8:26  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. 

 

IF WE HAD FAITH IN HIS WORDS we would KNOW THE

MIND OF HOLY SPIRIT, WHICH INTERCEDES for US!

Rom 8:27  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. 

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. 

 

He is FIRST BORN OF MANY BRETHREN

We are HIS BRETHREN!

Rom 8:29  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. 

PREDESTINATED AND CALLED would be JUSTIFIED WHEN THEY

HAVE FAITH IN HIS WORDS

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. 

 

WHEN BLOOD OF LIFE is destroyed by adultery, Prov.  1; 10-19,

LORD’S COUNSEL is to GIVE SPIRIT OF CHRIST  

BECAUSE SPIRIT IS LIFE

LORD’S people had the problem of LAW OF SIN working in them, and BECAME WRETCHED, Rom. 7; 23-25, therefore LORD GIVE HIS SPIRIT, THE HOLY SPIRIT which is LIFE---HIS WORDS are SPIRIT, Jn. 6;63, when we have LAW OF SPIRIT OF LIFE of JESUS CHRIST working in our lives, LAW OF SIN is NO MORE A TROUBLE for us to be carnally minded!

Read in Rom. 8

The Law and Sin

Rom 7:7  What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet. 

Rom 7:22  For I delight in the law of God after the inward man: 

Rom 7:23  But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members. 

When one becomes WRETCHED BY LAW OF SIN,

ONLY SPIRIT OF JESUS CHRIST that could SAVE US

(that is the reason HE GIVES HOLY SPIRIT  by baptism, Acts.  2;38, 39)

HOLY SPIRIT teaches as HELPER, AND COMFORTER, Jn. 14, Jn. 16

Rom 7:24  O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death? 

Rom 7:25  I thank God through Jesus Christ our LordSo then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin

 

 

LORD gave wives to others, Jer. 8; 10(1-10)  ----then LAW OF SIN works in them ---Adulteresses shed blood, Eze. 23;45, they are as neighbour’s wives, Prov.  6;25-29, ---LORD had given minds to sin because of ERRORS OF PRIESTS, Jer. 8;1-10—

 

Adultery is because of CARNAL MINDS, ARO 8; 7, 8—THEREFORE such people are to receive SPIRIT OF CHRIST, BECAUSE SPIRIT IS LIFE, Rom. 8; 9-18

TO ESCAPE FROM SIN

ONE HAS TO RECEIVE SPIRIT OF CHRIST  

And then YOU WOULD HAVE MIND OF CHRIST  to escape SIN

 

Life in the Spirit

Rom 8:1  There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. 

Rom 8:2  For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. 

Rom 8:3  For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh: 

Rom 8:4  That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit

Rom 8:5  For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit

 

Rom 8:6  For to be carnally minded is deathbut to be spiritually minded is life and peace. 

Rom 8:7  Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be

Rom 8:8  So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God

 

After receiving HOLY SPIRIT by baptism to JESUS CHRIST, Acts.2;38, 39

You are NOT IN FLESH

 

Rom 8:9  But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in youNow if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. 

Rom 8:10  And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sinbut the Spirit is life because of righteousness. 

·        

Rom 8:11  But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you. 

·       It is ALMIGHTY CHRIST WHO DIED AND RAISED by HIMSELF, HE HAD THAT POWER, Jn. 10;18.

·       SO SPIRIT OF JESUS CHRIST should DWELL IN US---HIS WORDS THE SPIRIT should DWELL IN US!

·       JESUS CHRIST would QUICKEN US as HE IS ALMIGHTY

 

DO NOT FORGET—

Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his, Rom. 8; 9. 

 

Heirs with Christ

Rom 8:12  Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh. 

Rom 8:13  For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live. 

Rom 8:14  For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. 

Rom 8:15  For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. 

·       Gal 3; 26-29 says we become seed of ALMIGHTY through BECOMING SEED of CHRIST

·       Then we are ADOPTED AS SONS OF GOD

Rom 8:16  The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: 

Rom 8:17  And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together. 

 

We suffer with HIM, to be GLORIFIED TOGETHER ,Rom. 8;17

HE GAVE WIVES TO OTHERS, Jer. 8;10, when sinning, Jer.8;1-10

Therefore daughters, spouses allowed to sin, Hos 4;13, 14

 

Suffer with Him, Rom.8;17,  

To be CRUCIFIED WITH HIM, to be forgiven, Rom. 6; 6, 7

Then you are glorified together, Rom. 6

 

Dead to Sin, Alive to God

Rom 6:5  For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection: 

Rom 6:6  Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. 

Rom 6:7  For he that is dead is freed from sin. 

Rom 6:8  Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him: 

 

 

Rom 6:12  Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof. 

Rom 6:13  Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God. 

Rom 6:14  For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace. 

 

Slaves to Righteousness

Rom 6:15  What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid. 

Rom 6:16  Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness? 

Rom 6:17  But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you. 

Rom 6:18  Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness. 

Rom 6:19  I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your flesh: for as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to righteousness unto holiness. 

Rom 6:20  For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from righteousness. 

·       Sinners are NOT RIGHTEOUS!

·       They cannot have A LIFE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS  

·       They cannot have PEACEFUL LIVES with brethren!

·       A sinner who robs a neighbour’s wife is NOT RIGHTEOUS!

·       AN ADULTERESS is NOT RIGHTEOUS!

·       THEY CANNOT BE IN EVERLASTING COVENANT promised to Noah, Gen. 9; 5-7 (they destroy LIFE-BLOOD of babies!

Mal_2:5  My covenant was with him of life and peaceand I gave them to him for the fear wherewith he feared me, and was afraid before my name.

·       We have to fear Him to do what HE SAYS—so that THE EVERLASTING COVENANT would be PRESERVED!

 

Eze 37:24  And David my servant shall be king over them; and they all shall have one shepherd: they shall also walk in my judgments, and observe my statutes, and do them. 

Eze 37:25  And they shall dwell in the land that I have given unto Jacob my servant, wherein your fathers have dwelt; and they shall dwell thereineven they, and their children, and their children's children for ever: and my servant David shall be their prince forever. 

·       God’s ministry should be mindful to TAKE CARE OF CHILDREN FOREVER

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

·       Should CHILDREN be DESTROYED when they are babies, like how adulterers do?

·       Should children be given for IDOL WORSHIPPING like for CELTIC DANCES, like PCG  did!

Eze 37:27  My tabernacle also shall be with them: yea, I will be their God, and they shall be my people. 

Eze 37:28  And the heathen shall know that I the LORD do sanctify Israel, when my sanctuary shall be in the midst of them for evermore. 

·       CHRIST OUR LORD would sanctify all UNCLEAN PLACES of CHURCH amidst ISRAEL, Rom. 9;4-7!  

 

 

 

HOW WE OUGHT TO FAST

Isa 58:10  And if thou draw out thy soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul; then shall thy light rise in obscurity, and thy darkness be as the noonday: 

Isa 58:11  And the LORD shall guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make fat thy bones: and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not. 

 

BLESSINGS from GOD COMES

When TRUE FASTING IS OBSERVED

Isa 58:12  And they that shall be of thee shall build the old waste places: thou shalt raise up the foundations of many generations; and thou shalt be called, The repairer of the breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in. 

 

SABBATH SHOULD BE HONORED

To be BLESSED TO BE IN HIGH PLACES of EARTH

(lower places are HELL)

Isa 58:13  If thou turn away thy foot from the sabbath, from doing thy pleasure on my holy day; and call the sabbath a delight, the holy of the LORD, honourable; and shalt honour him, not doing thine own ways, nor finding thine own pleasure, nor speaking thine own words: 

Isa 58:14  Then shalt thou delight thyself in the LORD; and I will cause thee to ride upon the high places of the earth, and feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it. 

 

 

Israel's Only Savior

Made gentiles as witnesses for saving ISRAEL HIS PEOPLE

Isa 43:1  But now thus saith the LORD that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine. 

 

LORD sends rivers of water FOR SIN, Zec 13;1

The WATER is HIS FIRE

Isa 43:2  When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee. 

Isa 43:3  For I am the LORD thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour: I gave Egypt for thy ransom, Ethiopia and Seba for thee. 

Isa 43:4  Since thou wast precious in my sight, thou hast been honourable, and I have loved thee: therefore will I give men for thee, and people for thy life. 

·       GENTILE WITNESSES' work is for life of ISRAEL

Isa 43:5  Fear not: for I am with thee: I will bring thy seed from the east, and gather thee from the west; 

Isa 43:6  I will say to the north, Give up; and to the south, Keep not back: bring my sons from far, and my daughters from the ends of the earth; 

·       THEREFORE ships of Tarshish  brings children of ISRAELfrom FAR, Isa 60;9-- Isa 60:9  Surely the isles shall wait for me, and the ships of Tarshish first, to bring thy sons from far, their silver and their gold with them, unto the name of the LORD thy God, and to the Holy One of Israel, because he hath glorified thee. 

 

GENTILES HAVE FAITH in HIS WORDS

Isa 43:7  Even every one that is called by my name: for I have created him for my glory, I have formed him; yea, I have made him. 

Isa 43:8  Bring forth the blind people that have eyes, and the deaf that have ears. 

Isa 43:9  Let all the nations be gathered together, and let the people be assembled: who among them can declare this, and shew us former things? let them bring forth their witnesses, that they may be justified: or let them hear, and say, It is truth. 

Isa 43:10  Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me. 

·       GENTILE WITNESSES do not have ANY OTHER GOD but GOD OF ISRAEL!

 

He is EVERLASTING GOD ALMIGHTY the CREATOR

He REDEEMS ISRAEL FROM Babylon , Isa 43; 14

Isa 43:11  I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no saviour. 

Isa 43:12  I have declared, and have saved, and I have shewed, when there was no strange god among you: therefore ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, that I am God. 

Isa 43:13  Yea, before the day was I am he; and there is none that can deliver out of my hand: I will work, and who shall let it? 

 

It is LORD WHO SENT PCG  TO Babylon

Isa 43:14  Thus saith the LORD, your redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; For your sake I have sent to Babylon, and have brought down all their nobles, and the Chaldeans, whose cry is in the ships. 

 

 

LORD SENDS RIVERS IN WILDERNESS 

 Isa 43:19  Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert. 

Isa 43:20  The beast of the field shall honour me, the dragons and the owls: because I give waters in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, my chosen. 
Isa 43:21  This people have I formed for myself; they shall shew forth my praise. 
Isa 43:22  But thou hast not called upon me, O Jacob; but thou hast been weary of me, O Israel. 

 

The Idols of Babylon and the One True God

Isa 46:1  Bel boweth down, Nebo stoopeth, their idols were upon the beasts, and upon the cattle: your carriages were heavy loaden; they are a burden to the weary beast. 

Isa 46:2  They stoop, they bow down together; they could not deliver the burden, but themselves are gone into captivity. 

Isa 46:3  Hearken unto me, O house of Jacob, and all the remnant of the house of Israel, which are borne by me from the belly, which are carried from the womb: 

Isa 46:4  And even to your old age I am he; and even to hoar hairs will I carry you: I have made, and I will bear; even I will carry, and will deliver you. 

Isa 46:5  To whom will ye liken me, and make me equal, and compare me, that we may be like? 

Isa 46:6  They lavish gold out of the bag, and weigh silver in the balance, and hire a goldsmith; and he maketh it a god: they fall down, yea, they worship. 

Isa 46:7  They bear him upon the shoulder, they carry him, and set him in his place, and he standeth; from his place shall he not remove: yea, one shall cry unto him, yet can he not answer, nor save him out of his trouble. 

Isa 46:8  Remember this, and shew yourselves men: bring it again to mind, O ye transgressors. 

Isa 46:9  Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me, 

Isa 46:10  Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure: 

 

 

Isa 46:11  Calling a ravenous bird from the eastthe man that executeth my counsel from a far country: yea, I have spoken it, I will also bring it to pass; I have purposed it, I will also do it. 

·       Job_38:41  Who provideth for the raven his food?

·       The man of EAST (east wind of ships of Tarshish, Isa 48;7-14) does serve CHRIST OUR LORD as RIGHTEOUS JUDGE in Eze. 23;45

Isa 46:12  Hearken unto me, ye stouthearted, that are far from righteousness: 

Isa 46:13  I bring near my righteousness; it shall not be far off, and my salvation shall not tarry: and I will place salvation in Zion for Israel my glory. 

·       Ships of Tarshish  publish RIGHTEOUSNESS  of JESUS CHRIST

 

 Gen. 19:5-- LORD demanded a reckoning from all who shed LIFE BLOOD—then we should examine and be subjected to chastening of LORD . Evry man’s brother was required the life of man, vs 5

 

Vs 6-whoever sheds man’s blood by man his blood  shall be shed—( Prov.  1:10-19 shows adulteresses enticing men shed their own blood, for adulteresses shed blood, Eze. 23:45.

 

Isa 49:26—their own blood is “sweet wine”

Isa 49:26  And I will feed them that oppress thee with their own flesh; and they shall be drunken with their own blood, as with sweet wineand all flesh shall know that I the LORD am thy Saviour and thy Redeemer, the mighty One of Jacob. 

 

·      Adulteresses in God’s land make BROTHERS as  crusts f bread, Prov.  6:25-29

 

Adulterers and simple men, the brothers (Gen. 9:5) {brethren of JESUS CHRIST , Ro 8:28,29} are “Blood thirsty” they the wicked should cry out to God to lead in the way everlasting, Ps. 139:19-24

·      Otherwise they cannot enter church for EVERLASTING COVENANT!

 

They are ENEMIES OF LORD ALMIGHTY

Psa 139:20  For they speak against thee wickedly, and thine enemies take thy name in vain. 

Psa 139:21  Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate thee? and am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee? 

Psa 139:22  I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them mine enemies. 

Psa 139:23  Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts: 

 

 Psa 139:24  And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting. 

·      Sinners are to be convicted of their sins through HOLY SPIRIT  

 

 

 HOLY SPIRIT given through BAPTISM, Acts.  2;38, 39, leads to be aware of your sins through HIS SPIRIT, the words, Jn. 6;63.

Through experiences of people around you too, you could be aware of your sins, Jn. 16:8 (comforter reprove of sin)

 

The Work of the Holy SPIRIT

(these scriptures shows why we are given HOLY SPIRIT)

Joh 16:4  But these things have I told you, that when the time shall come, ye may remember that I told you of them. And these things I said not unto you at the beginning, because I was with you. 

·       We learn from HIS WORDS, the HOLY SPIRIT told to disciples

 

Joh 16:5  But now I go my way to him that sent me; and none of you asketh me, Whither goest thou? 

Joh 16:6  But because I have said these things unto you, sorrow hath filled your heart. 

 

HOLY SPIRIT would be given After HIS RESURRECTION

HOLY SPIRIT  is comforter

Joh 16:7  Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you. 

Joh 16:8  And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: 

·       Comforter the HOLY SPIRIT  would criticize the world of SIN

 

HOLY SPIRIT teaches SIN, RIGHTEOUSNESS, AND Judgment

Joh 16:9  Of sin, because they believe not on me; 

Joh 16:10  Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more; 

Joh 16:11  Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged. 

Joh 16:12  I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. 

HOLY SPIRIT AS TRUTH would guide us TO KNOW THINGS TO COME

Joh 16:13  Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. 

·       Judgments would surly come!

·       Reckoning of LIFE BLOOD, Gen. 9;5 would be DONE FOR NO ONE SHOULD DESTROY LIFE-BLOOD, as does ADULTERERS, Prov.  1;10-19

Joh 16:14  He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you. Joh 16:15  All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall shew it unto you. 

 

 

 

Ps. 136:8,9---TIMES through SUN, MOON would guide HIS PEOPLE

Psa 136:8  The sun to rule by day: for his mercy endureth for ever: 

·       Seeing EQUINOX OF SUN made ships of Tarshish know TIME OF DAY of LORD

 Twelve hours Jn.11.9 proves Greater Light SUN ruling DAY OF LORD Gen.1.16 through EQUINOX Read in No. 1074 in www.restoringcaptivity.com

·      If you see THE LIGHT of this world, you walk IN THE DAY, which is TWELVE HOURS, Jn. 11; 9, follow THAT GREAT LIGHT, being CHRIST, Gen. 1; 3-5; then you would NOT WALK in DARKNESS, but have Light of life, Jn. 8; 12. 

 

Psa 136:9  The moon and stars to rule by night: for his mercy endureth for ever. 

·       PCG  and GW 1 would see calendar through MOON to SERVE IN NIGHT given for wickedMic 3;6-

Mic 3:5  Thus saith the LORD concerning the prophets that make my people err, that bite with their teeth, and cry, Peace; and he that putteth not into their mouths, they even prepare war against him. 

·       PCG  prophecies PEACE when Eze. 22 8-26 SHOWS ADULTEROUS  SINS which DEFILE THE HOLY NAME OF LORD!

Mic 3:6  Therefore night shall be unto you, that ye shall not have a vision; and it shall be dark unto you, that ye shall not divine; and the sun shall go down over the prophets, and the day shall be dark over them.

 

Serving in NIGHT, Philadelphia Church of God  

Would see that Zion be plowed as a field, Rev.  12; 14

Mic 3:12  Therefore shall Zion for your sake be plowed as a field, and Jerusalem shall become heaps, and the mountain of the house as the high places of the forest

·     Forest is wilderness of Rev.  12;14

Rev 12:14  And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent. 

 

 

Rulers and Prophets woring in NIGHT Denounced

Mic 3:1  And I said, Hear, I pray you, O heads of Jacob, and ye princes of the house of Israel; Is it not for you to know judgment? 

Mic 3:2  Who hate the good, and love the evil; who pluck off their skin from off them, and their flesh from off their bones; 

Mic 3:3  Who also eat the flesh of my people, and flay their skin from off them; and they break their bones, and chop them in pieces, as for the pot, and as flesh within the caldron. 

Mic 3:4  Then shall they cry unto the LORD, but he will not hear them: he will even hide his face from them at that time, as they have behaved themselves ill in their doings. 

Mic 3:5  Thus saith the LORD concerning the prophets that make my people err, that bite with their teeth, and cry, Peace; and he that putteth not into their mouths, they even prepare war against him. 

Mic 3:6  Therefore night shall be unto you, that ye shall not have a vision; and it shall be dark unto you, that ye shall not divine; and the sun shall go down over the prophets, and the day shall be dark over them. 

Mic 3:7  Then shall the seers be ashamed, and the diviners confounded: yea, they shall all cover their lips; for there is no answer of God. 

Mic 3:8  But truly I am full of power by the spirit of the LORD, and of judgment, and of might, to declare unto Jacob his transgression, and to Israel his sin. 

Mic 3:9  Hear this, I pray you, ye heads of the house of Jacob, and princes of the house of Israel, that abhor judgment, and pervert all equity. 

Mic 3:10  They build up Zion with blood, and Jerusalem with iniquity. 

Mic 3:11  The heads thereof judge for reward, and the priests thereof teach for hire, and the prophets thereof divine for money: yet will they lean upon the LORD, and say, Is not the LORD among us? none evil can come upon us. 

Mic 3:12  Therefore shall Zion for your sake be plowed as a field, and Jerusalem shall become heaps, and the mountain of the house as the high places of the forest. 

 

 

We thank and praise FOR LORD IS BUILDING ZION WITH A MIGHTY HAND for HE ALONE WOULD GIVE JOY to HIS PEOPLE. 

2Pe 3:9  The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. 

 

Mar_2:17  When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
Luk_3:3  And he came into all the country about Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins;
Luk_3:8  Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and begin not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, That God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham.

 

2Co_7:10  godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.

2Pe_3:9  The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

 

Psa 144:4  Man is like to vanity: his days are as a shadow that passeth away. 

Psa 144:9  I will sing a new song unto thee, O God: upon a psaltery and an instrument of ten strings will I sing praises unto thee. 
Psa 144:10  It is he that giveth salvation unto kings: who delivereth David his servant from the hurtful sword. 
Psa 144:11  Rid me, and deliver me from the hand of strange children, whose mouth speaketh vanity, and their right hand is a right hand of falsehood: 
Psa 144:12  That our sons may be as plants grown up in their youth; that our daughters may be as corner stones, polished after the similitude of a palace: 
Psa 144:13  That our garners may be full, affording all manner of store: that our sheep may bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our streets: 
Psa 144:14  That our oxen may be strong to labour; that there be no breaking in, nor going out; that there be no complaining in our streets. 
Psa 144:15  Happy is that people, that is in such a case: yea, happy is that people, whose God is the LORD. 

 

We pray that His tabernacle be with us soon, and former things would pass away soon,

Rev 21:2  And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. 
Rev 21:3  And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God. 
Rev 21:4  And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. 

 

 

ALL PRAISE AND THANKSGIVING GLORY AND HONOUR POWER AND MAJESTY BELONGS TO LAMB THE CRUCIFIED CHRIST, AMEN AND AMEN
