SEVEN SPIRITS OF GOD TESTED THE MINISTRY TO GIVE LIGHT OF JESUS CHRIST

Re 4:5  And from the throne proceeded lightnings, thunderings, and voices. Seven lamps of fire were burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God.

OBEYING GOD INCLUDES THE LAWS OF THE SANCTUARY

(it has to be a deep study, but a few facts are mentioned in this article, as examples).

Ex. 20:1-11 discuss how we should be loving the God of the whole earth, how we should honour Him for His mighty acts of redeeming ISRAEL from bondage, and includes how we should serve Him in His SANCTUARY.

We should fear Him as He is jealous God, punishing for iniquities, --not to use His name in vain ( not to use His name among people, places or things where you could do or say things against His will.

For example a sermon about the piano of H.W.Armstrong to honour H.W.Armstrong and others when it was brought to Edmond , IS USING HIS NAME IN VAIN!)

We are to serve Him in His SANCTUARY, Ps. 77:13, we should know the laws of the SANCTUARY –One could learn these laws from all over the bible.

Just a few examples are written in this article.

WHY WAS OIL GIVEN IN Eze. 16: 13 TO PROPHET 

Lev. 24:1-3,  Lamps with olive oil served by Aaron’s priesthood (succeeding High priests to follow these laws), 2-it is a continual forever.

This is why Gerald Flurry was given oil, Eze. 16:13 (he had the responsibility of high priest ---and he was succeeded to royalty----meaning he was made the king among  ISRAEL of Ro 9:4,6, LORD considers leader of ISRAEL of Ro 9: 4,6 as high priest or king)

That is the reason why KEY OF David was given with all things, Is 22:20-24, (this means Gerald Flurry was expected to work as high priest and David in God’s true church)---both duties of king and priest of ISRAEL of Ro 9: 4,6.

Now the above Lev. 24:1 -2, Eze. 16:13, Isa 22:20-24 showed that Gerald Flurry as High priest & David, the king, and he was also prophet of Ezekiel, Eze. 2:5, 33:33, 24:24,

Ps 119:105  -- Your word is a lamp to my feet And a light to my path.

Pr 6:23  For the commandment is a lamp, And the law a light; Reproofs of instruction are the way of life,

Pr 13:9  The light of the righteous rejoices, But the lamp of the wicked will be put out.

As high priest and David   he had the responsibility of guarding the SACREDNESS OF CHURCH, PERFORMING AND LEARING TRUE SACREDNESS, (prayers, thanksgiving, praises and supplications, teaching of God’s things to next generations----ALL THESE TO BE DONE WITH THE WORD OF GOD! {grain offerings and drink offerings are teachings to God’s people ---to eat and drink God’s words to love God with their hearts, minds and souls, and ----burnt offerings are to give correct instructions, reproof to do correctly, as fire burn wickedness, Jer 5: 14, Isa 9: 18}

As prophet---he was a watchman guarding the temple and leading the ministry to be Righteous before God (Eze. 3:33). If a Righteous turns wicked and if the watchman did not correct the blood of wicked will be on the head of the watchman (please read those chapters). By correcting ministry, people would not go astray.

WHEN THE GOD OF THE WHOLE EARTH GIVES RESPOSIBILITIES---

LORD gives His servants the necessary power to correct ministry, Jer 1:17-19, Ez 2:6-8, 3:7-11. a watchman should blow trumpet to warn the people, Ez 33:6, ----

when Alex Harrison made the blunder of Bamah Eze. 20:29, the covenant breaking iniquity of bringing strangers , Eze. 44:7, which is  AGAINST THE LAW OF THE SANCTUARY , Le 22:25, Gerald Flurry neglected His responsibility.

Therefore,  blood of Alex Harrison is upon Gerald Flurry , Eze. 33:7,8. Alex Harrison and Gerald Flurry were rude to us the gentiles of Tarshish and Sheba (Sri Lanka & India) as we opposed the Bamah matter, even the blood of us was on the skirts of Gerald Flurry , Jer 3:34. these are lessons to ministry, to make righteous Judgments!

People of the world serving a leader would do according to that leaders constitution-

WHY DO PRIESTS OF GOD NOT SEARCH THEM FROM THE MANUAL OF  HIS INSTRUCTION BOOK WE ARE GIVEN!

IS THIS A SMALL MATTER, SERVING THE GOD OF WHOLE EARTH?

Had Gerald Flurry learnt Le 22:25-he would not allow Eze. 44:7 to happen!.

In fact all ministry and people of Philadelphia Church of God know how Gerald Flurry said “ that he magnifies himself” as Paul did. What Paul said was that he became the minister for gentiles as well, he had added responsibility!

Ro 11: 7  What then? Israel hath not obtained that which he seeketh for;

8  (According as it is written, God hath given them the spirit of slumber, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear;)

9  And David saith, Let their table be made a snare, and a trap, and a stumblingblock, and a recompence unto them:

10  Let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see,

11--through their fall salvation is come unto the Gentiles, for to provoke them to jealousy.

12  Now if the fall of them be the riches of the world, and the diminishing of them the riches of the Gentiles;

13  For I speak to you Gentiles, inasmuch as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, I magnify mine office:

14  If by any means I may provoke to emulation them which are my flesh, and might save some of them.

Paul said here that through the fall of ISRAEL, gentiles were bound, and he has the added responsibility to be the minister for gentiles!

It is Paul who preached nothing but, JESUS CHRIST and HIM CRUCIFIED, 1 Co 2: 2,  as people could be saved by baptizm unto His death, Ro 6: 3-7.

But PCG was taught by H.W.Armstrong to condemn LORD’S CROSS!

NOW THESE ARE NOT SIMPLE MATTERS!

What serious problems had happened in God’s church!

GOD TOOK AWAY ALL THE BEAUTY OF CHURCH---

Jer 25:10  ‘Moreover I will take from them the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the sound of the millstones and the light of the lamp.

Re 18:23  "The light of a lamp shall not shine in you anymore, and the voice of bridegroom and bride shall not be heard in you anymore. For your merchants were the great men of the earth, for by your sorcery all the nations were deceived.

NOTICE THAT Jer 25: 10 AND RE 18: 23 BOTH SPEAK OF THE CHURCH OF GOD WHERE THE VOICE OF BRIDEGROOM SHOULD BE HEARD!

Pr 24:20  For there will be no prospect for the evil man; The lamp of the wicked will be put out.---THEREFORE, Gerald Flurry was removed , Isa 22: 25, Ps. 74: 9.

And JESUS CHRIST HIMSELF WORKS TO GIVE SALVATION AS A LAMP THAT BURNS!

Isa 62:1  For Zion’s sake I will not hold My peace, And for Jerusalem’s sake I will not rest, Until her righteousness goes forth as brightness, And her salvation as a lamp that burns.

JESUS CHRIST IS WORKING TO GIVE SALVATION TO THE MINISTRY WHO ERRED!

Ps 132:17  There will I make the horn of David to bud: I have ordained a lamp for mine anointed.

WHEN THE LAMP WAS PUT OUT FROM THE CHURCH LEADER, LORD INTERVENED TO SAVE THE THRONE OF David, Amos 9: 11, and He made the gentiles to serve Him as David, Zec 12: 8.

Can a mere man who die as  grass , be proud against God to break the covenant  LORD MADE WITH CHURCH? 

Could a mere man magnify himself and say God is working in my office?

SHOULD A HIGHPREIST LOOK UP AND WAIT UNTIL SOMEONE BREAKS GOD’S COVENANT ? 

Aaron knew that he was serving God, Le 10:19. We cannot use our own decisions, leaders has to guard LORD’S ways.

When Alex Harrison broke the covenant -- Gerald Flurry made him an evangelist ----Strengthened the evil doer,  SHOULD SUCH THINGS HAPPEN IN GOD’S CHURCH? 

Jer 23:14  Also I have seen a horrible thing in the prophets of Jerusalem: They commit adultery and walk in lies; They also strengthen the hands of evildoers, So that no one turns back from his wickedness. All of them are like Sodom to Me, And her inhabitants like Gomorrah.

Gerald Flurry further wrote on PN news that Regional Director’s are “Gerald Flurry’s eyes and ears”!

THIS SHOWS THE IGNORANCE OF Gerald Flurry AS  the HIGH PRIEST or the pride and rebelliousness to do his own things in church, AS IF THE CHURCH IS PROPERTY! Jer 2:30

These are good lessons today-  to the captives to come out through LORD’s blood, Zec 9:11, to see how they had pierced Him again, and also are lessons for the generations to come!

Re 22:5  There shall be no night there: They need no lamp nor light of the sun, for the Lord God gives them light. And they shall reign forever and ever.---THEREFORE—when New Jerusalem is established, JESUS CHRIST would give the light that is necessary for His people!

But, we need to understand how we become disobedient---SO THAT WE DO NOT ERR AGAIN!

ALL OF US SHOULD LEARN FROM MISTAKES--

It was written above that Gerald Flurry had the responsibility of David-

Gerald Flurry did not search how David served,

1 Ch 23- 26 chapters say how David served. When one reads those chapters you feel the seriousness of how David served the LORD, and how the OTHERS SUBMITTED TO SERVE THE LORD!

MOREOVER, David did, 1 Chr 23: 30-31, and the same things are the LORD’S will, Isa 66: 23!

Had Gerald Flurry listened to God to warn the rebellious ministry with biblical reproofs,  God would have made him known His will! (Gerald Flurry was given knowledge from all prophets to repent, but he did not , Jer 44:4,5, HE EXALTED for the knowledge he got from all prophets, saying “he was a conduit of all prophets” ) Because Gerald Flurry did not tell the abominations to Jerusalem the church, as he was required by God, Eze. 16:2,  he could not get people to repent! Instead he prophesied of “ A PLACE OF SEFETY”!—what place of safety- the LORD poured HIS CUP OF WARTH, Ps. 75: 8, ON THE WHOLE house of ISRAEL of Ro 9:4,6

THEN----David’s responsibility was removed from him, Isa 22:25.

Gentiles were made as David, Zec 12: 8

He did not perform the watchman’s duties-

gentiles were made the watchmen, Isa 62:6,

He was removed from being a prophet too, Ps. 74:9, (he hath been a prophet, Ez 2: 5) gentiles were given that responsibility too, Re 11: 10

So the leader and ministry of ISRAEL of Ro 9: 4,6,  have all failed- they are Laodiceans, Re 3: 17!

Again –THESE ARE GOOD LESSONS TO FEAR GOD- TO DO-HIS WILL! We should NOT do things our way!

Are you not insulting God, when you house the church in a building which is named after a man, H.W.Armstrong??

Did Moses Aaron, David put names of people? cannot we learn from men who had done well in God’s house?

House of Aaron is those who serve under Aaron- all Levi and priests descending from him serving God, in God’s house, BELONG TO HOUSE OF Aaron (a team of people who serve God in house of God).

Similarly house of David- is those being led by David to worship God, in God’s house.

HOUSE OF  ISRAEL is those being led by a leader in God’s house—it is the ministry-

PEOPLE ARE THE CONGREGATION.

Ministry is directly under the leader  to worship God. ---AS LEADER INSTRUCTS, LIKE DAVID, THE MINISTRY FOLLOW HIM!

David’s time service to God were under the authority of David, 1 Chr 25: 1-6

The one who is as David should lead the house of ISRAEL congregation of ISRAEL, as David did--- to WORSHIP GOD!

HE SHOULD PRESERVE THE BEAUTY OF THE TEMPLE OF GOD!

PART 2.

When Philadelphia Church of God leaders fell—

JESUS CHRIST came as a branch, Jer 33:15,16. He is as High priest of Melchisedec order, He pitched His tabernacle, Heb 8:1,2.

THE MINISTRY HE NEEDS WERE PURIFIED BY JESUS CHRIST , (ministry was broken as pots so that no sherd could be found, Isa 30:14 , stones of altar as chalkstones, --to take away the sins, Isa 27:9 –and the gentiles served Him to send LORD’S messages, Eze. 30: 3,9.

STONES WERE PURIFIED FOR LORD’S TABERNACLE!

When gentile work is ending, they would give the PRESENTS  to JESUS CHRIST --

Ps. 72: 10  The kings of Tarshish and of the isles shall bring presents: the kings of Sheba and Seba shall offer gifts. 

Tarshish brings presents?----what are these presents to JESUS CHRIST?

Pr 17:8  A present is a precious stone in the eyes of its possessor;---LORD WOULD POSSESS THE PRESENT---THE PRESENTS ARE THE MINISTRY CLEANSED AS STONES!

1Pe 2:5  you also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house,

When we present our presents to JESUS CHRIST , HE IS THE POSSESSOR!

THE PRESENT IS PRECIOUS STONES FOR HIS SANCTUARY!

That is the  ROYAL PRIESTHOOD COMING AS LIVING STONES TO THE POSSESSOR, JESUS CHRIST! –

In the spiritual house, ministry would be living stones.

ALL PRAISE BE TO HIM, FOR HIS SHORT WORK UPON SHIPS OF TARSHISH!

LORD IS LIVING—HE NEEDS LIVING PRIESTS, (they were spiritually killed in Eze. 9: 6)--- “God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.", Mt 22:32, Mr 12:27, Lu 20:38, God judged the dead ministry, Ac 10:42, 2Ti 4:1, ministry need to cleanse conscience from dead works to serve the living God, Heb 9:14, you have come to Mount Zion and to the city of the living God, Heb 12:22, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God, 1Pe 2:5 .

Gentiles serve Him as David, led by Him to make supplications, Zec 12:8-10. He leads ISRAEL with supplications, Jer 31:9. gentiles do the fasts of Zec 8: 19.

Gentiles made as priests, Jer 3:15 in house of God, Isa 56:4-7,  as watchmen, Is 62:7, as prophets, Re 11:10 as women who bring fire, Isa 27:11 ships of Tarshish as east wind, Ps 48:7. as EUNUCHS, Isa 56: 4-7, EUNUCHS OF kingdom of heaven, Mt 19:12, THEY SERVE TO PREPARE NEW JERUSALEM, Isa 62; 7, the bride of JESUS CHRIST, Re 21: 2,3.

So the work of the present truth is being served by gentiles.

The LORD’s need is to purify ISRAEL to make the new covenant , they come out of captivity by the blood of the covenant, Zec 9: 11---that is to make the covenant!

Presently as HOUSE of ISRAEL are in Captivity Spiritually, (by word of God), in spiritual nations, Ez 12:15, Eze. 32:9, ----THE gentiles in HOUSE OF GOD, Isa 56; 4-7,  HAS THE WORK TO MAKE SUPPLICATIONS FOR Laodiceans so that they be saved and redeemed THROUGH JESUS CHRIST !

LORD’s people should eat the PRESENT TRUTH of God.

Gerald Flurry failed as the priest with oil he was given in Eze. 16:13. Therefore as there would always be a priest, Jer 33:18, to offer sacrifices of JESUS CHRIST continually with oil, Le 24:1,, (as a continual forever) gentiles of outer court were given oil  Zec 4:11,14 ( they stand before the God of whole earth, Re 11:2-4, Zec 4:11)

The need for the hour is to make burnt offerings as the LORD’S FIRE, Jer 5:14 has to burn the wickedness of the  ministry, Isa 9:18, AND THEIR BLINDNESS TO BE REMOVED!

Re 4:5  And from the throne proceeded lightnings, thunderings, and voices. Seven lamps of fire were burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God.

seven spirits of God was sent to Laodiceans ..Re 5:6 –

The spirit of judgment and by the spirit of burning, cleanses-- Isa 4:4

The Spirit of grace and supplication;-- Zec 12:10

Spirit of wisdom and understanding, The Spirit of counsel and might, The Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD, Isa 11:2.

Ps 119:105  - Your word is a lamp to my feet And a light to my path.

SO THE SEVEN LAMPS THROUGH THE WORD OF GOD WAS SENT TO Philadelphia Church of God by the gentiles, all these things are written in articles.

Zec 2:13-- Be silent, O all flesh, before the LORD: for He is raised up out of His holy habitation.

Zec 3:1--And he shewed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the LORD, and Satan standing at his right hand to resist him.

2  And the LORD said unto Satan, The LORD rebuke thee, O Satan; even the LORD that hath chosen Jerusalem rebuke thee: is not this a brand plucked out of the fire?

3  Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and stood before the angel.

Notice- Joshua stands before the, LORD, Zec 3:1, similarly gentiles stand before Him, Re 11:2-4 , Zec 4:14, and they stood before God, Zec 3:4 Joshua was before God, Zec 3:1

Zec 3:4 --the gentiles were commanded to take away the filthy garments and LORD told Joshua that He took away His iniquity and that He would clothe Him with rich robes!

How will He remove iniquity—He had offered His Baptizm unto His death, Ro 6: 3-7, which gives His rigteousness, vs 19, 22. Through His baptism –all sins forgiven—that means iniquity removed-all unrighteousness removed-rich robes-clothes of Righteousness given! Re 19:8 would happen when the baptism is taken!

Acknowledge your sins before Him prayerfully and ask Him to forgive and baptize you in His name-POUR OUT YOUR HEART TO HIM---- He would even give you the words! HE IS MIGHTY!

His ministry should also be baptized unto His death, Ro 6: 3-22, to serve Him in His Righteousness unto Holiness, without which no one would see Him, Heb 12; 14!

Read all articles on baptizm of JESUS CHRIST in http://www.restoringcaptivity.com.

Zec 20:3-5 –says of a clean turban put on his head and clothes put on him by us gentiles.

Clean clothes are Righteousness of saints, Re 19:8

Job 29:14—I put on righteousness, and it clothed me; My justice was like a robe and a turban.

So clean clothes is Righteousness –

rich robes-are clothes of justice, turban represent  Justice.

( If you read Aarons priestly clothes, he had these physically, they had pointed for today and forever--- for leaders to be Righteous and just in judging the affairs of ISRAEL!)

Articles in http://www.restoringcaptivity.com  teach YOU ----TO GET CLOTHES, RICH ROBES, TURBAN. Therefore we had given CLOTHES to Philadelphia Church of God leaders.

To end,  LORD’S admonishing is written below_

Zec 3: 6----And the angel of the LORD protested unto Joshua, saying,

7--Thus saith the LORD of hosts; If thou wilt walk in My ways, and if thou wilt keep My charge, then thou shalt also judge My house, and shalt also keep My courts, and I will give thee places to walk among these that stand by.

Vs. 8-10-LORD says He removes the iniquity of Joshua and his companions- DURING THE ONE DAY OF THE LORD. This one day would be over as thousand years, Ps. 90:4

Please note for Feast of Tabernacles-

AFTER ISRAEL captives return, they are to keep ordinances mentioned, Ez 43:18-27, 45:18-25 and in Eze. 45:27, Feast of Tabernacles is to be kept as Passover. Therefore during this Feast of Tabernacles, 2012, gentiles work would include burnt offerings (Le 23:37) supplication to ISRAEL as free will offerings, vs. 38.

All ministers should NOTE that LORD had ordained the gentile work, Acts 28:28,  to bring back the Laodiceans from captivity .  LORD had given us His Righteousness to condemn the Laodiceans, Isa 54:17, La 1:15, Re 11:2

LORD IS THE RULER OF HIS CHURCH. ---HE PUTS DOWN ONE, and EXALTS ANOTHER, Ps 75:7, Gentile work SERVES JESUS CHRIST AND HIS CHOSEN! Eze. 30: 3, Isa 14: 1,2.

LORD says He cannot endure sacred meetings with iniquity, Isa 1:13,14. When captivity of Laodiceans is over they are sure to do  wonderful services, when the iniquity is removed by JESUS CHRIST!.

IT IS NOT THE WORLD THAT ARE SERVING IN SACRED MEETINGS BUT THE MINISTRY THAT SERVES GOD AT  THE SACRED MEETINGS!

If the meetings are unbearable to God, it is the fault of the ministry---WHY BLAME THE WORLD?

Just as we should keep the Ten commandments  fulfilled with love, Ro 13:8-10, WE SHOULD KEEP THE LAWS OF THE SANCTUARY, THE RULERS SHOULD MAKE WONDERFUL JUDGMENTS TO GLORIFY GOD OF WHOLE EARTH!

Leaders should learn from bible the ways to serve God, and to remain in faith of JESUS CHRIST, and to DEPART FROM INIQUITY, 2 Tim 2: 19.

That is the lesson from this article.

ALL HONOUR AND GLORY, THANKSGIVING AND PRAISE,  BE TO THE GOD OF WHOLE EARTH JESUS CHRIST. AMEN AND AMEN.
