INTRODUCTION

Church was prophesied to fall away, man of sin revealed, 2Th 2:3, Who opposeth and exalteth himself--- so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.---vs. 4, he might be revealed in his time, vs. 6, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, vs. 9, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of His mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of His coming, vs. 8, because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved, vs. 10, And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie, vs. 11, That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness, vs. 12.

WE HAD SHOWN how Gerald Flurry gloried as “G” God!—all things in above vv. had taken place in church---NOW, PLEASE UNDERSTAND--- IF THE MINISTRY GUARDS THE COVENANT, THE ABOVE THINGS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN!!! If congregation does not believe, it is the responsibility of the ministry to TEACH them THE TRUTH—who could sit as God, other than the leader???Prophecies take place in church, Rom. 9: 4,6! H.W.Armstrong was taken away, 2 Th 2: 7, and then the man of sin revealed, it is the one to whom the responsibility of David was given, Isa. 22: 20-24.

SERVING THE MOST HOLY GOD OF WHOLE EARTH is the MOST RESPONSIBLE WORK; leader of ISRAEL church ought to CREATE TRUE WORSHIP SERVICES in the midst of ISRAEL LORD’S FAMILY, just as David did, so that LORD COULD SAVOR THE PRAISES AND THANKSGIVING of His chosen ISRAEL!

Very sadly, according to the word of God, ISRAEL church, Rom. 9: 4, 6, does not honour God as the way He requires.—He requires Righteousness unto Holiness to serve Him, ---but, ISRAEL Righteousness is as filthy rags, because iniquities have taken them away, Isa. 64: 6. Then JESUS CHRIST the MIGHTY COUNSELOR, Isa. 9: 6, chastens His sons, Heb 12:7, --chastening is done by FATHER OF SPIRITS, to make the sons LIVE, vs. 9, and He gives the Righteousness unto Holiness, to serve Him, Rom. 6: 19, 22. THEREFORE, PEOPLE OF GOD SHOULD LISTEN TO HIS WORDS—to repent and turn to Him!

Heb. 12: 8- But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons. –LORD chastens His sons, then HE GIVES His Righteousness unto Holiness through baptizm unto His death, Rom. 6: 3-22. IT IS NOT A SIMPLE MATTER TO REMOVE SIN, IT COSTED HIS BLOOD TO BE SHED, TO SAVE HIS PEOPLE, and HE HAD TO COME AS A MAN, Mt 1: 21, Jo 10: 18.

LORD does not accept worship with iniquity, Isa. 1: 12-15.

Eze 20:39 -As for you, O house of Israel, thus saith the Lord GOD; Go ye, serve ye every one his idols, and hereafter also, if ye will not hearken unto Me: but pollute ye My holy name no more with your gifts, and with your idols.—fear of God is taught with men’s words, Isa 29:13---

PCG broke covenant—

WHEN THEY BROKE COVENANT—IT IS AS GOING BACK TO Egypt---THE PARABLE OF EAGLE IN Eze. 17 EXPLAIN---Eze. 17: 13--And hath taken of the king’s seed, and made a covenant with him, --15- he rebelled against him in sending his ambassadors into Egypt, that they might give him horses and much people. Shall he prosper? shall he escape that doeth such things? or shall he break the covenant, and be delivered?-- 16 As I live, saith the Lord GOD, surely in the place where the King dwelleth that made him king, whose oath he despised, and whose covenant he brake, even with him in the midst of Babylon he shall die.—IN THOSE VV. OF Eze. 17—LORD shows the leaders as Pharaoh and horses—the king who was made king by KING, THE LORD, Eze. 16: 8-14, Isa. 22: 20-24, (PCG leader was made king by LORD THE KING, THE POSSESSOR OF THE WORLD!). So when the king broke the COVENANT OF GOD---leader the ‘king’ was sent to Babylon, where he died, so he was PUT IN HELL, IN GRAVE, as JESUS CHRIST has the key to hell, Rev. 1: 18.

WE SHOULD KNOW WHOM WE SERVE!!!

All leaders who helped the king and approved of the covenant breaking sin, are as nations in HELL, Eze.32, BECAUSE they were SCATTERED IN NATIONS OF CHALDEA, Babylon, Eze. 12: 13-15. –all dead in sin!!! All prophecies would fulfill during this generation, Eze. 12: 25-28.

They have to be redeemed to be saved--Isa 54:- In a little wrath I hid My face from thee for a moment; but with everlasting kindness will I have mercy on thee, saith the LORD thy Redeemer. Isa 60:16 -Thou shalt also suck the milk of the Gentiles, and shalt suck the breast of kings: and thou shalt know that I the LORD am thy Saviour and thy Redeemer, the mighty One of Jacob. Isa 63:16 -Doubtless thou art our father, though Abraham be ignorant of us, and Israel acknowledge us not: thou, O LORD, art our father, our redeemer; thy name is from everlasting.-- Jer 50:34 Their Redeemer is strong; the LORD of hosts is His name: He shall throughly plead their cause, that He may give rest to the land, and disquiet the inhabitants of Babylon.---those words are self explanatory.

SO THAT IS HOW LORD DISQUIETEN ISRAEL WHO WERE SENT TO Babylon!

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.

Therefore-- MINISTRY OF ISRAEL COULD NOT HELP JESUS CHRIST WITH THE PEG HE GAVE (Isa. 22: 20-24)-THEREFORE--- Isa 63:3 I have trodden the winepress alone; and of the people there was none with Me: for I will tread them in Mine anger, and trample them in My fury; and their blood shall be sprinkled upon My garments, and I will stain all My raiment. (winepress of vineyard which is house of ISRAEL, Isa. 5: 7, was trodden, La. 1: 15, and BLOOD came—STAINING the GARMENTS OF JESUS CHRIST, while preparing the bride, Rev. 19: 13—15 (LORD speaks of His bride! LORD is cleaning her to give fresh clothes of Righteousness, for marriage, vs. 7, 8, He gave a fountain of water to cleanse from sin, Zec 13: 1), so that she be ready to make New Covenant, Eze. 16: 60-63.

Covenant was broken, Eze. 44: 7, 16: 59, but PCG, the last remnant had not repented, they and all called out ISRAEL are divided—ISRAEL FAMILY IS DIVIDED!----brotherhood against one another!—they do not know the WAYS OF THEIR FATHER GOD! ---terrible situation in God’s family, in His Sanctuary! Ministry does not know to preserve His things.

Gen. 49 prophecies are therefore fulfilling which were meant for last days, Gen. 49: 1, 2.

SO LORD PURIFIES THE MINISTRY---IT IS MALACHI PURIFICATION NOW, Mal 3: 1-5---then the congregation could be corrected by them!

JESUS CHRIST DOES THE THINGS NEEDED TO PURIFY THEM ALL BY HIMSELF, with wonderful counsels, Isa. 9: 6! As His ways are in a Sanctuary, Ps. 77; 13, He does all things as the HIGH PRIEST OF MELCHISEDEC ORDER, Heb. 7: 1-3, and creates His Sanctuary, Heb. 8: 1,2, in the midst of ISRAEL, Eze. 36: 26-28, so that Isa. 66: 23 would come to pass.

AFTER FALLING AWAY----(written above)--

2 Th 2: 8-- whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of His mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of His coming, --the SPIRIT of MOUTH, are His life giving words, Jo 6: 63. When JESUS CHRIST comes as BRIGHT MORNING STAR, Rev. 22: 16, He gives His lightning—from DAY STAR, ( morning star is SUN), all done with words of His mouth! (HE IS A SUN AND A SHIELD, Ps 84:11, (HE IS GREATER THAN sun, which is HIS CREATION, Gen.1; 14-17!) His words are written as prophecies, that is why those who read prophecies of Revelations are blessed, Re 22:7. We need light from the day star to live!

READING means to be DOERS OF WORDS, Jas 1:22, act on prophecies!

Sun gives light—LIGHTNING the places WHICH are DARK—so does LORD lightning HIS PEOPLE IN DARKNESS, it is DARK IN HELL---

His words are as arrows--

Ps 144:6 -Cast forth lightning, and scatter them: shoot out thine arrows, and destroy them.

Zec 9:14 -And the LORD shall be seen over them, and His arrow shall go forth as the lightning: and the Lord GOD shall blow the trumpet, and shall go with whirlwinds of the south.

Do not you see the arrows and swords of JESUS CHRIST, that are sent to hearts to know the THOUGHTS, Heb. 4: 12, they come with the writings of gentiles of outer court, Rev. 11: 2-4, who trust in the LORD, Rom. 15: 12, whose time is LORD’S DAY, Eze. 30: 3, 9, Isa. 60: 9, 22.

WE SHOULD UNDERSTAND THAT LORD SAID—“I will build My church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it”, Mt 16:18.

Eze.16: 60-63 (making New Covenant) would be done by JESUS CHRIST! Jer 30:11 -For I am with thee, saith the LORD, to save thee: though I make a full end of all nations whither I have scattered thee, yet will I not make a full end of thee: but I will correct thee in measure, and will not leave thee altogether unpunished.---- Jer 46:28 Fear thou not, O Jacob My servant, saith the LORD: for I am with thee; for I will make a full end of all the nations whither I have driven thee: but I will not make a full end of thee, but correct thee in measure; yet will I not leave thee wholly unpunished.---

SO IN LAST DAYS, WHEN HE RISES TO SAVE ISRAEL—they are scattered by God (in captivity, Eze. 12: 13-15, (in Babylon sits the daughter of Zion, Mic 4:10, Zec 2:7, Isa 52:2, La 2:10, La 2:13, Isa 47:1). He would punish her, Jer. 25 15-26—although there is a falling away, 2Th 2:3, IT IS NOT A FULL END, and the LORD would correct her, and bring back from captivity, Eze.39: 28, 29, and make the eternal covenant with the church of last days, Eze. 16: 60-62, she would mother the rest of ISRAEL when New Covenant is made, Eze. 16: 60-62 (notice those vv. –it is not a man’s covenant (one-man government), but, LORD’S COVENANT. —“I will build My church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it”, Mt 16:18.

World and all that therein are created for the glory of JESUS CHRIST-- Col 1:16 -For by Him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by Him, and for Him: the church, its leaders (throne of David given to PCG leader, Isa. 22: 20-24, which was taken back, Isa. 22: 25, and even feeble working as David, Zec 12: 8) are created by Him ---FOR HIM! FOR GLORY OF JESUS CHRIST —

People could glory if they know HIM—Jer. 9: 24-- let him that glorieth glory in this, that he understandeth and knoweth Me, that I am the LORD which exercise lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness, in the earth: for in these things I delight, saith the LORD. Ministry of Mal 3: 1-5 are to understand LORD’S WAYS!

WHAT A PRIVILEDGE TO SERVE THE GOD OF WHOLE EARTH???

We ought to exercise HIS WAYS IN HIS SANCTUARY!

Rev. 5: 12- Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing. 13-- every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb forever and ever. Rev.21:23 -And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof.

Just as people cannot live without physical sun---SPIRITUAL people who should honour LORD’S WORDS OF LIFE, Jo 6: 63, Jas 1:22, cannot live without GOD, HE IS SUN AND A SHIELD to His chosen people, when they are upright, Ps 84:11.

Rev. 4: 8-- Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come.---9- glory and honour and thanks to Him that sat on the throne, who liveth forever and ever, 11-- Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created. –IT IS everliving LORD GOD ALMIGHTY JESUS CHRIST that sits on His throne in Revelations! He had CREATED all things FOR HIS PLEASURE! All men should GLORY and HONOUR JESUS CHRIST! ----

LORD’S SHORT WORK, Rom. 9: 28, Isa. 28: 21, PORTRAYS HIS WORK WITH Pharaoh WHOM HE CREATED, Rom. 9: 17---When LORD took away the key of David from prophet, Isa. 22: 25, LORD gave the keys of hell WHICH HE HAS, Rev. 1: 18, to him comparing him to Pharaoh, Rom. 9: 17, Deut. 28: 68, (He is also Assyria, Eze.31: 1-3), to be in hell, Eze.32: 22, 31, they lie with many nations in the PIT, HELL, DEATH, DARKNESS, as said in Eze. 32. This is Pharaoh, Eze. 32: 31, LORD created him to SHOW HIS POWER to him, Rom. 9; 17, who is now in captivity in darkness, (the prophet was sent into captivity, Eze. 12: 3), LORD compares them AS HAVING SCATTERED IN unknown NATIONS; Eze.32: 9, those are the nations on horses---mentioned in Eze.31 and 32. It is those horses which destroy as depicted in Rev. 6—read—

THOSE NATIONS on horses---ARE MENTIONED IN --Eze 23:23-- The Babylonians, and all the Chaldeans, Pekod, and Shoa, and Koa, and all the Assyrians with them: all of them desirable young men, captains and rulers, great lords and renowned, all of them riding upon horses.—so we see LORD speaks of the captives in NATIONS, as RIDING UPON HORSES who come to fight the LORD with their own words, WITHOUT using LORD’S WORDS in God’s land.

Isa 19:24- In that day shall Israel be the third with Egypt and with Assyria, even a blessing in the midst of the land: ---vs. 25 Whom the LORD of hosts shall bless, saying, Blessed be Egypt My people, and Assyria the work of My hands, and Israel Mine inheritance. ---

How could it be a blessing?---because LORD sends them into death and hell, (as He has the key to hell, Rev. 1: 18), and wins over death through His sacrifice SO THAT THEY ARE REDEEMED FROM DEATH—the vv. are written in this article.

Isa 11:16-And there shall be an highway for the remnant of His people, which shall be left, from Assyria; like as it was to Israel in the day that he came up out of the land of Egypt---there is a high way LORD provides, Isa. 11: 9 (high way of knowledge to cover sea, Isa. 11: 9, when their ruin is considered as sea, La. 2: 13), for Assyrians, (remnant of His people, of Jn 6: 44, with whom LORD intends to make the covenant ----this is LIKE HOW LORD PROVIDED A WAY FOR ISRAEL TO ESCAPE FROM Egypt (through RED SEA!). LORD is performing a second exodus, Isa.11; 11, FOR ISRAEL HIS PEOPLE!-- vs. 25 Whom the LORD of hosts shall bless, saying, Blessed be Egypt My people, and Assyria the work of My hands, and Israel Mine inheritance. HE IS WORKING WITH A HIGH WAY of knowledge TO GET BACK HIS INHERITANCE! –

Gates of hell shall not prevail against it”, Mt 16:18.---just because His people are IN HELL AS Assyrian and Pharaoh,Eze.31: 1-3, Isa. 14: 12-17, as LORD had given that key to them TO BE THERE for a time---- JESUS CHRIST could OPEN AND GET THEM BACK, giving them life to be with Him, because HE GOT VICTORY OVER THEIR DEATHS, through the POWER OF HIS RESURRECTION-- 1Co 15:55 O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? – 57- But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.-- Ho 13:14 I will ransom them from the power of the grave; I will redeem them from death: O death, I will be thy plagues; O grave, I will be thy destruction: repentance shall be hid from Mine eyes.---Pharaoh or Nebuchadnezzar (king of Assyria, Ezr 5: 12, now in hell, Eze. 32: 22), WOULD FIND DIFFICULT TO KICK AGAINST THE PRICKS, Ac 9:5. JESUS CHRIST is LIGHT OF LIFE! He gives many riches through Hid death—

284.	RICHES FROM THE DEATH AND RESURRECTION OF JESUS CHRIST!

http://www.restoringcaptivity.com

Rev. 21: 22-- I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it. Rev. 1: 8--JESUS CHRIST is Almighty! HIS TEMPLE SEEN! Gates of hell could not prevail against it!

LORD God Almighty chose to become a man to save ISRAEL from their sins, Mt 1: 21. Then as a LAMB He sacrificed Himself to see a seed for Isaac, Isa. 53: 10, Gal 3: 16, 19 (a seed for Abraham). When ISRAEL BECAME ENEMIES OF GOD WHO BROKE COVENANT OF HIS, HE PUT THEM in hell and death as He has those keys, Rev. 1: 18---remember, JESUS CHRIST is the OWNER OF ALL THINGS OF THE WORLD, Job 41: 11--whatsoever is under the whole heaven is Mine.)

JESUS CHRIST as A LAMB---Ac 8:32--He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb dumb before His shearer, so opened He not His mouth:-- Isa 53:7 He was oppressed, and He was afflicted, yet He opened not His mouth: He is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so He openeth not His mouth.

Joh 1:29- The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto Him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.

Those vv. say how JESUS CHRIST willingly went through that sacrifice, as A LAMB!

SO WE SHOULD UNDERSTAND LORD’S POWER--- LOVE FOR HIS PEOPLE! –HE USES THE BEST COUNSEL FOR HIS PEOPLE TO SAVE THEM---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.

SEE—it is LORD’S WORK—sending all nobles (leaders), to Babylon (by word of God, as captives, Eze. 12: 13-15), and THEN PUTTING THEM IN hell and death, SO THAT THEY WOULD OVERCOME WHEN HE OVERCAME death and hell---- Ho 13:14 I will ransom them from the power of the grave; I will redeem them from death: O death, I will be thy plagues; O grave, I will be thy destruction: repentance shall be hid from Mine eyes.--- 1Co 15:55 O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? – 57- But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.- THAT WAS THE PURPOSE OF JESUS CHRIST BECOMING “THE LAMB” ---

Jo 10: 18--No man taketh it from Me, but I lay it down of Myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of My Father.

JESUS CHRIST came to the world MADE as SON OF GOD, as High Priest of Melchisedec Order; He met Abraham, to whom Abraham paid tithes, Heb. 7: 1-3. Therefore—we see that CREATOR GOD as SON OF GOD became THE LAMB to REDEEM ISRAEL FROM COVENANT OF DEATH they made, Isa. 28: 15, when they broke covenant, Eze. 44: 7, 16: 59.

The Assyrian, the leader BEING IN HELL, Isa.14: 12-16, is not allowing the captives to return to JESUS CHRIST, he keeps them as PRISONERS, Isa. 14: 17 (the people of God are led by a false, vain work which is not profitable for Isa. 66: 23, ministry who serve should have Righteousness unto Holiness to serve God, Rom. 6: 19, 22, which is given only through baptizm unto His death, Rom. 6: 3-7, Malachi purification would be completed when they get baptized unto His death---so leader does not allow these things, but keeps exalting H.W.Armstrong!!!! ),

Therefore--- LORD RELEASES THOSE PRISONERS THROUGH HIS BLOOD,--Zec 9: 11---LORD DESTROYS THE POWER OF THIS Assyrian, Isa. 14: 25, 26, HE HIMSELF DOES IT BY HIS HAND, Isa. 31: 8.

Therefore---GATES OF HELL CANNOT PREVAIL AGAINST LORD BUILDING HIS CHURCH!!!!—THE TIME HE DOES Isa. 31: 8 IS—SEEN IN Rev. 17: 17--

Zec 9: 11-- by the blood of thy covenant I have sent forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water.--12 -Turn you to the strong hold, ye prisoners of hope: even today do I declare that I will render double unto thee;

Rev. 17: 17—LORD in His parables for the kingdom, portrays church of Rom. 9: 4, 6 as ‘beast power” as we had shown in our writings. LORD HAD ALLOWED BEAST POWER to be in church TO FULFILL HIS PURPOSE, UNTIL HIS WORDS FULFILL, Rev. 17; 17. (For instance leader’s words are as a lion, Jer. 2: 30, shepherds (judges of church) are as wolves, Zep 3:3, false prophets are wolves, Mt 7:15, princes as wolves destroy souls, get dishonest gain, Eze 22:27, princes of ISRAEL shed blood, Eze 22:6, princes are rebellious, and companions of thieves: every one loveth gifts, and followeth after rewards: they judge not the fatherless, Isa 1:23---so that explains a bit of “beast power”).
