MYSTERY OF AGES Col 1.26 PART 1
Gerald Flurry recently trumpeted on ‘mystery of
ages’ written by H.W.Armstrong--- but, how did Paul trumpet on “MYSTERY OF
AGES”? We ought to examine biblically--
Jer
6: 2 -I have likened the daughter of Zion to a comely and delicate woman.-- Isa
1:8 And the daughter of Zion is left as
a cottage in a vineyard, as a lodge in a garden of cucumbers, as a besieged
city.-- Isa 3:16 - Moreover the LORD saith, Because the daughters
of Zion are haughty,- Isa 3:17 Therefore the Lord will smite with a scab the
crown of the head of the daughters of Zion, and the LORD will discover their
secret parts.--La 2:1 -
How hath the Lord covered the daughter of Zion with a cloud in His anger, and
cast down from heaven unto the earth the beauty of Israel, and remembered
not His footstool in the day of His
anger!---WHEN
THE LORD IS ANGRY WITH Zion, BEAUTY OF ISRAEL would be CAST DOWN!
INTRODUCTION TO MYSTERY OF AGES AS PAUL
WROTE IN COL 1.26---Mystery of Ages explained by
H.W.Armstrong is NOT BASED ON Mystery of Ages EXPLAINED BY PAUL! (That
is—they are PRIVATE INTERPRETATIONS, 2 Pe 1: 20)--- As Paul said, Mystery of Ages is based on
JESUS CHRIST and Him crucified, which were preached to gentiles by him, Rom.
15: 16. JESUS CHRIST GIVES LIGHT OF LIFE to ISRAEL, through HIS SACRIFICE ON
THE CROSS! For this purpose OF GIVING LIGHT OF LIFE TO ISRAEL, JESUS CHRIST
Himself sends messages to ISRAEL, through gentiles, Eze. 30: 3, 9, THREFORE,
MYSTERIES ARE MADE KNOWN TO GENTILES.
JESUS
CHRIST PITCHES HIS OWN Tabernacle, Heb. 8: 1, 2 (through
His own sacrifice, Heb. 9: 13, 28 Heb. 10: 4), in the midst of ISRAEL, Eze.
37: 27, 28, -- AS HIS WAY IS IN A SANCTUARY, Ps. 77: 13 (that means, through His ordinances FULFILLING
in a Sanctuary!). For that very reason, gentiles now serve Him in A
HOUSE OF PRAYER, Isa. 56: 4-7, as ISRAEL temple IS PROFANED BY JESUS CHRIST, Eze. 24: 21. ISRAEL
never understood the ways of JESUS CHRIST, as they were exalting themselves
and doing against the judgments of God. They broke the marriage covenant, Eze.
16: 59 and she became a spiritual harlot, Eze. 16: 15, 22,
23, and since she never repented although LORD sent all prophets, Jer.
44: 4, 5, she was considered the mystery Babylon, Eze. 12: 13-15, as LORD
scattered her in nations, after the seventy year period given to her, Jer. 25.
Therefore, all mysteries are connected to the church of God, and as she does
not understand because she had become spiritually blind, Rev. 3: 17, gentiles
were taught by JESUS CHRIST, Rom. 15: 12.
MYSTERY OF HOW EVERY MAN BECOMES PERFECT IN JESUS
CHRIST—IS KNOWN AMONG GENTILES--
Col 1:26- Even
the mystery which hath been hid from
ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to His saints: (ELECT, {the saints} BECAME THE
GENTILES, NOT ISRAEL, Rom. 9: 30-32) ---therefore—gentiles were made known of these mysteries! 27 To whom God
would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles;
which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:
28 Whom we preach, warning every
man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ
Jesus:
29 Whereunto I also labour,
striving according to His working, which worketh in me mightily.
Paul preached Christ in you---
Ro 8:2- For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ
Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.-- Ro 9:1 I say the truth
in Christ, I lie not, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Spirit,
Ga 2:20 I am crucified with Christ: (“I am crucified with Christ” means
he had got baptized unto LORD’S DEATH, ---Rom. 6: 3-7 had TAKEN PLACE IN Paul’s
life!) nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the
life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God,
who loved me, and gave himself for me. Ga 6:14-
But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our
Lord Jesus Christ,--Paul preached faith in JESUS CHRIST, he
glories in the CROSS OF JESUS CHRIST, and he teaches these to gentiles as Paul
is minister of gentiles, Rom. 15: 16--.
THAT
MEANS—“CHRIST IN YOU” HAPPENS when “ONE IS CRUCIFIED WITH CHRIST!”
Rom. 6: 3 -Know ye not, that so many of us as were
baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? 4 --Therefore we are buried with Him by baptism
into death:

Col 1: 27--riches of the
glory of this mystery-- among the Gentiles;--
which is Christ in you, 28-- that we may present every man perfect in Christ
Jesus: 29---PAUL
WORKED ACCORDING TO THE WORKING OF JESUS CHRIST ---THAT
WORK WORKED IN Paul MIGHTILY!--- JUST AS Paul GLORIED IN HIS
CROSS, which worked mightily, we are to GLORY in the CROSS of our Lord Jesus
Christ,--H.W.Armstrong
opposed the CROSS of JESUS CHRIST! So does his followers!---THEN H.W.Armstrong
worked against THE WORKING OF JESUS CHRIST!
Gentile work glorify the WORK OF JESUS CHRIST ON HIS
CROSS, read the many articles of “CROSS OF JESUS CHRIST”, “HIS BAPTIZM” in http://www.restoringcaptivity.com
, because Paul’s teachings are preached by gentiles, among ISRAEL, Isa. 14: 1,2
(LORD had made gentiles MAIDS and MEN SERVANTS among ISRAEL, Isa. 14; 1,2 ,
because these gentiles were given His spirit, Joel 2: 28, 29).
WHAT IS THE WORK WORKED MIGHTILY IN PAUL?
---
1
Co 2: 1: I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or
of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God.
2 -For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ,
and Him crucified.--
4- And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words
of man’s wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power
5- That your
faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God. 7 -But we speak the wisdom of God in
a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our
glory:
JESUS
CHRIST HAD ORDAINED BEFORE THE WORLD---THAT OUR FAITH SHOULD STAND IN THE POWER
OF JESUS CHRIST! ------not with wisdom of men! Paul’s
WORK OF DECLARING THE TESTIMONY OF GOD ---WAS PREACHING JESUS CHRIST—AND HIM
CRUCIFIED!
H.W.Armstrong
worked with ENTICING WORDS OF MAN’S WISDOM! So does Philadelphia Church of God,
his followers!---they are against the CROSS OF JESUS CHRIST, because
H.W.Armstrong taught so!-----PAUL WAS NOT SO--1 Co 2: 4- And my
speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man’s wisdom, 5- That your faith should not stand in the
wisdom of men, but in the power of God.
7 -But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery--- H.W.Armstrong preached with MEN’S
WISDOM! ---NOT IN THE POWER OF GOD! H.W.Armstrong preached of TWO GODS, and preached against the CROSS OF
JESUS CHRIST!---that is quite contrary to Paul’s preaching! Col 1: 26- mystery which hath been hid from ages
27--mystery among
the Gentiles;---H.W.Armstrong cannot preach of the mystery of JESUS CHRIST and Him
crucified---HE IS NOT GENTILE! H.W.Armstrong preached according
to men’s wisdom---he preached of two Gods—WHEN THE WORD OF GOD CONFIRMS THAT
GOD OF WHOLE EARTH IS JESUS CHRIST, Isa.
9: 6, Isa. 54: 5—prove from the vss. --
1 Co 2: 5- your
faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God, WHEN
H.W.Armstrong’s book of “mystery of ages” is not BASED ON THE ABOVE BIBLICAL
FACTS-------his BOOK CONTAINS ALL LIES CENTRED AROUND MAN’S WISDOM!
Isa 44: 24- Thus saith the LORD, thy
redeemer, and He that formed thee from the womb, I am the LORD
that maketh all things; --25--That frustrateth the tokens of the liars, and maketh diviners mad; that
turneth wise men backward, and maketh their knowledge foolish;
Jer 50:36--A sword is upon the liars; and
they shall dote: a sword is upon her mighty men; and they shall be dismayed. (SWORD OF
GOD IS WORD OF GOD, Eph. 6: 17).
1 Ti 1: 8- But we know
that the law is good, if a man use it lawfully;-- 9 Knowing this, that the law is not made for a
righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient,------ 10 For whoremongers, for them that
defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for
perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine; (LORD
requires Levi separated for Him, Levi CANNOT MIX UP WITH MANKIND TO DEFILE
THEMSELVES! De 10:8, Nu 1:50-53 Nu 3:5—12, De 21:5, Eze 44:11,
15). 2Ch 5:4 -5, De 18:5 For
the LORD thy God hath chosen him out of all thy tribes, to stand to minister in
the name of the LORD, him and his sons forever.
2Ch 29:11 My sons,
be not now negligent: for the LORD hath chosen you to stand before Him, to serve
Him,
AS IN THE ABOVE words of God, WE SAW HOW LORD’S OWN FAMILY OF ISRAEL
church (Rom. 9: 4, 6, Amos 3: 2) WORKS AGAINST JESUS CHRIST AND HIS CROSS to have written some other
doctrine in the book on “mystery of
ages” of H.W.Armstrong !—and PCG keeps
EXALTING THESE BOOKS OF H.W.Armstrong!
THEREFORE GOD ORDAINED THE WORK AMONG
GENTILES, JESUS CHRIST LEADS THEM, (Zec 12: 8-10, Rom. 15: 12, Eze. 30: 3, 9,
Rev. 11: 2-4)---they are given a SHARP SWORD, which is the word of God, Eph. 6:
17! Isa. 49: 1-- Listen, O isles, unto Me; The LORD hath called me from
the womb; ---- Isa 49:2 And He hath made
my mouth like a sharp sword;--- 3 And said unto me, Thou art my servant, O
Israel, in whom I will be glorified.--- 5
And now, saith the LORD that formed me from the womb to be his servant, to bring Jacob again to Him,--- 6 And He said, It is a light thing
that thou shouldest be My servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to
restore the preserved of Israel: I will
also give thee for a light to the Gentiles,--- 7 - Thus saith the LORD, the Redeemer of Israel, and His
Holy One, to Him whom man despiseth, to Him whom the nation abhorreth,-- 8 Thus saith the LORD, In an acceptable time
have I heard thee, and in a day of salvation have I helped thee: and I will
preserve thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, to establish the
earth, to cause to inherit the desolate heritages;--THOSE
VSS. SAY THAT THROUGH THE WORK AMONG ISLES, LORD WILL ESTABLISH ISRAEL
HERITAGES, which IS DESOLATE NOW!---JESUS CHRIST is a light to gentiles, to
bring back ISRAEL!---gentiles are made known of mysteries of LORD’S DEATH ON
CROSS, to give that knowledge to ISRAEL, ISRAEL PCG is stubborn, BUT LORD’S SWORD and famine,
Amos 8: 11, WILL CONSUME THEM, Jer 44:27.
Isa. 49: 1-O isles --Gen 10: 4---Tarshish---5--By these were the isles of the Gentiles
divided in their lands; -- Isa. 49: 1-- Listen, O isles, unto Me;--Paul is minister to these gentiles of Tarshish --Rom.15:
16-- That I should be the minister of Jesus Christ to the Gentiles, ministering
the gospel of God, that the offering up of the Gentiles might be acceptable,
being sanctified by the Holy Spirit.-- Read—articles on Tarshish—in--http://www.restoringcaptivity.com
.--- THOSE
WHO SERVE THE LORD SHOULD KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING AND WHOM THEY ARE SERVING!
--2Ch 29:11- My
sons, be not now negligent: for the LORD hath chosen you to stand before Him,
to serve Him,
ISRAEL nation (the church, Rom. 9: 4,
6), ABHORS JESUS CHRIST! They DISPISE HIM! But HE IS THEIR REDEEMER!
---JESUS CHRIST IS HELPING ISRAEL MINISTRY THROUGH THE GENTILES of isles (who
serve Him in the covenant, Isa. 56: 4-7) ----THIS IS A DAY OF SALVATION TO
ISRAEL—JESUS CHRIST IS HELPING THEM
THROUGH HIS CROSS, TO SAVE THEM---HE IS GIVING ABUNDANT KNOWLEDGE OF
HIM—to return to His Kingdom, Eze. 39: 28, 29---HE WOULD PRESERVE THEM TO
INHERIT THE DESOLATE LAND OF ISRAEL, Eze. 47, 48, (spiritual land is church, it
is desolate, Eze. 24: 21, LORD’S way is in Sanctuary, Ps. 77: 13, therefore
JESUS CHRIST IS MAKING HIS CHOSEN to RETURN TO THE HOLIEST THROUGH HIS
SACRIFICE, BY Baptizm unto His death, Rom 6: 3-7, which gives HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS
UNTO HOLINESS, Vs. 19,22, to enter His Sanctuary, PITCHED BY HIM, Heb. 8: 1, 2!
2 Pe 1:11- For so an entrance shall be
ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and
Saviour Jesus Christ.
LORD scattered ISRAEL in nations, to land of
Chaldeans, in Babylon, punished them with a cup of fury, and makes them RETURN
to HIM, through His words, Hos 14: 1,2, they are WORDS OF GIVING NEW LIFE
through Baptizm unto His death, Rom 6: 3-7, which gives HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS UNTO
HOLINESS, Vs. 19,22, to ENTER HIS SANCTUARY. (Mic 4:10 Be in pain, and labour to bring forth, O
daughter of Zion,--- thou shalt go even to Babylon; there shalt thou be
delivered; there the LORD shall redeem thee from the hand of thine enemies.---
Zec 2:7 Deliver thyself, O Zion, that
dwellest with the daughter of Babylon.)---THE ISRAEL CHURCH, Rom. 9: 4, 6 IS IN SPIRITUAL
BABYLON, because she was scattered in captivity, Eze. 12: 3-15!---LORD REDEEMS
THEM FROM THERE, Jer. 23: 7, 8!---they would be redeemed with His blood,
Zec 9: 11, JESUS CHRIST had offered a “cup of blessing” through His sacrifice,
Mysteries of this age through JESUS
CHRIST comes FROM HIS DEATH AND RESURRECTIONS---they
are made known to gentiles—and you would find them in-- http://www.restoringcaptivity.com.
After the cup of fury was poured, LORD is merciful
to bring back the captivity of ISRAEL and HE IS GIVING THE CUP OF BLESSING--
The cup of
blessing for forgiveness of sins committed under law is given through LORD’S
death, and--- when you get buried to His death, Col 2: 11-13, Rom. 6: 3-7, and
get baptized to His name, YOU WOULD GET HIS SPIRIT, Acts 2: 38, you would
become part of His kingdom-- Ps
33:12 - Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD; and the people whom He
hath chosen for His own inheritance. -- Joh
3:3 --Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he
cannot see the kingdom of God.
The many articles found on cross of JESUS CHRIST, baptizm
of JESUS CHRIST, Passover, cup of blessing, article No 284 (riches through His
death), covenants, David’s ways---in http://www.restoringcaptivity.com
makes the reader understand the great blessings LORD is pouring on the bride of
Christ, to return to His temple, HE PITCHED, Heb. 8: 1,2, as she is now staying
alone without JESUS CHRIST, as written in book of Lamentations.
ALL PRAISE AND THANKSGIVING BE TO THE GOD OF ISRAEL,
THEIR REDEEMER AND SAVIOUR, JESUS CHRIST, HIS MERCY ENDURETH FOR EVER, AMEN AND
AMEN.
