	Home Introduction Articles

"The earth and all its inhabitants are dissolved; I set up its pillars firmly. Ps. 75: 3"

Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! when the LORD bringeth back the captivity of His people, Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad- Ps 14:7

Daughter of Zion, sent to Babylon --Mic 4:10

LORD addresses captives whom He sent from Jerusalem to Babylon--Jer 29:20

I will bring again the captivity of My people of Israel, and they shall build the waste cities- Am 9:14

Who are Israelites; to whom pertaineth -adoption, glory, covenants, giving of the law, service of God, and promises—Rom 9: 4,6

LORD restores captivity, brings them back from countries where He had driven them- Jer 23: 7,8

LORD turns away captivity and will gather ISRAEL from nations—Jer 29: 14

nbsp;

IT IS THE WAY OF GOD OF ISRAEL TO TEST AND JUDGE THE PEOPLE WHOM HE PLACES AS RULERS OF HIS CHURCH IN ISRAEL WHERE HE PLACES HIS COVENANT Rom. 9. 4

In this article the major lesson is that the RULER GOD PLACES IN HIS CHURCH (Land of ISRAEL as God calls it) HAS TO BE SERVING AS DAVID DID, when LORD creates ETERNAL COVENANT. Some examples are discussed to learn how God judged various situations among His servants; they are lessons for the ETERNAL COVENANT OF PEACE, Eze. 37: 24-28.

Job 36: 28—31 tells us that GOD TESTS AND JUDGES AFTER GIVING FOOD IN ABUNDANCE---God tested Job---Job: 23: 1, 10, 12, 14.

Job 34: 21- For His eyes are upon the ways of man, and He seeth all his goings.

Ro 2:6 -Who will render to every man according to his deeds:

2Co 5:10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.

Job 34: 16—27 says how LORD disregard the wicked rulers and set others overturning the wicked! –vs. 26- He striketh them as wicked men in the open sight of others;

Job 37: 23-Touching the Almighty, we cannot find Him out: He is excellent in power, and in judgment, and in plenty of justice: He will not afflict.--24 -Men do therefore fear Him: He respecteth not any that are wise of heart.

Job 24: 22-He draweth also the mighty with His power: He riseth up, and no man is sure of life.—23 Though it be given him to be in safety, whereon he resteth; yet His eyes are upon their ways.--24 They are exalted for a little while, but are gone and brought low; they are taken out of the way as all other, and cut off as the tops of the ears of corn.

David had prophesied of judgments done to preserve the covenant with David, and LORD would preserve it, Jer. 33: 24-26.

Ps 35: 1 - A Psalm of David. Plead my cause, O LORD, with them that strive with me: fight against them that fight against me.--24 -Judge me, O LORD my God, according to thy righteousness; (There would come those who strive with David, to destroy David’s throne, as generations continued, and Daniel prophesied that all ISRAEL fail through transgressions, Dan 9: 11, and it happened during PCG, they broke covenant, Eze. 44; 7, LORD removed leader, Isa. 22: 25, and profaned Sanctuary, Eze. 24 21),

Ps 76:9 --When God arose to judgment, to save all the meek of the earth. Selah.

Ec 12:14- For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil.

Isa 5:16 -But the LORD of hosts shall be exalted in judgment, and God that is holy shall be sanctified in righteousness.

Isa 30:18 And therefore will the LORD wait, that he may be gracious unto you, and therefore will he be exalted, that he may have mercy upon you: for the LORD is a God of judgment: blessed are all they that wait for Him.

SO GOD’S PEOPLE ARE TO WAIT FOR HIM---THAT IS HEAR HIM TO DO WHAT HE SAYS!

PART 1—PRESENT DAY SERVANTS OF THE LORD WHO SERVE IN DAVID’S THRONE—AND LORD’S JUDGMENTS WHEN THEY HAD ERRED

PART 2—LESSONS FROM HISTORY TO LEARN HOW LORD JUDGES HIS SERVANTS AND PUNISHES THEM; WE LEARN THAT GOD IS NOT PARTIAL

PART 3--JUDGMENTS WHEN RETURNING FROM CAPTIVITY

PART 1

Re 15:4 --Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify thy name? for thou only art holy: for

all nations shall come and worship before thee; for thy judgments are made manifest.

PLEASE UNDERSTAND FROM THIS VS. THAT JUDGMENTS ARE MADE MANIFEST among ‘NATIONS’----we know God’s judgments are made manifest in church of God among ISRAEL, Rom. 9; 4, Eze. 16: 8, ----GOD CALLS ‘NATIONS”----because PCG is now scattered in “NATIONS’ as captives of Babylon, Eze.12: 13-15. They are to be gathered from ‘NATIONS’, after pouring His Spirit, Eze.39: 28, 29. The harlot turned church sits on WATERS, Rev. 17: 1,2---WATERS are nations, multitudes, Rev. 17: 15. (LORD says of scattered spiritual nations, Eze. 12: 13-15).

AND THE LORD GAVE THOSE SPIRITUAL NATIONS A CUP OF FURY, Jer. 25.

“All nations shall come and worship before thee”---read how LORD requires the WORSHIPPING HE DESIRES---

Isa. 66: 22- For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before Me, saith the LORD, so shall your seed and your name remain.---ISRAEL NAME WOULD REMAIN BEFORE HIM FOREVER, praise be to God of ISRAEL, Amen.

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.

“New Moon” is worshipping on BEGINNINGS OF MONTHS, Nu 28: 9-14, they are appointed times, Nu 28: 1, 2—Sabbaths and beginnings of each month, Nu 28: 9-14, are therefore appointed times.

WERE ALL NATIONS taught to worship before God in TRUTH and in SPIRIT,as Isa. 66: 23, Joh 4:23 require??? “All nations shall come and worship before thee”—then means the church in captivity in ALL NATIONS as written in Jer. 25: 15-38, (who were given the cup to correct them) to WHOM God’s things were taught during LORD’S DAY, when it is gentiles times, Eze. 30: 3, to purify Levi, Mal 3: 1-5.---they are of spiritual Jerusalem, Rom. 9: 4, Eze. 16: 2, who broke covenant, Eze.16: 59, where “man of sin” was found, 2 Thes 2: 1-7, LORD GAVE HIS JUDGMENTS, to them. GOD MAKES THE COVENANT with THE SAME PEOPLE WHO BROKE THE COVENANT, IT IS PCG, TO THEM LORD IS providing His atonement, Eze.16: 60-63, to establish the New Covenant.

They are to mother the rest of the ISRAEL, Eze. 16: 60-62.

GOSPEL OF THE CROSS, 1 Co 2: 2, 1Co 1:17, WAS PREACHED TO THOSE NATIONS IN CAPTIVITY.Those articles are found In http://www.restoringcaptivity.com

Mt. 28: 19- Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:

20 -Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

BAPTIZM UNTO HIS DEATH, Rom. 6 WAS PREACHED TO PCG MINISTRY, THEY WERE TO BE TRODDEN, Rev. 11: 1-2, La. 1: 15. They make the New Covenant with God, Eze. 16: 60-63, SO THEY WERE TAUGHT TO BE CLEANSED BY HIS BLOOD!

Baptizm unto His death, to be born again in newness of life, Rom 6: 3-7, which gives HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS UNTO HOLINESS, to serve Him, Vs. 19, 22------

It is they who would be cleansed of their sins, Mt 1: 21—

Jer. 50: 20- In those days, and in that time, saith the LORD, the iniquity of Israel shall be sought for, and there shall be none; and the sins of Judah, and they shall not be found: for I will pardon them whom I reserve.

SO IT IS NOT ALL THE NATIONS of the world, WHO WOULD BE BAPTIZED UNTO HIS DEATH, BUT HIS PEOPLE ISRAEL AND JUDAH.---

Covenant would be made with Levi, Mal 2: 4, Eze. 16: 60-63, -and they are purified, Mal 3: 1-5.

THEY MAKE THE New Covenant WITH GOD OF ISRAEL!

Mt 28: 20 -Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you---

Those commandments had been taught to PCG, the end time church which god the judgments of God and were taught of His commandments!

ALL THOSE ARTICLES AND OTHER ARTICLES EXPLAIN HOW THE END TIME CHURCH WHICH CONTINUED THE SEVENTY YEAR PERIOD to become THE HARLOT, Isa. 23: 15, (Who served the “one king”, H.W.Armstrong, Isa. 23:1 5), GOT LORD’S JUDGMENTS for fulfilling the prophecies of Rev. 17: 5 “And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH”. Babylon is made up of many nations---so the harlot is in many nations. The ruler as Nebuchadnezzar!

God’s people do not know His ways, so they err in their hearts, Ps 95:10, since this generation too rejected knowledge from prophets (as killing them), Mt 23: 30, 31, 34, although all prophetic knowledge was given to PCG leader, Jer. 44: 4, 5, LORD put them in pits, hell, as NATIONS, Eze. 32—therefore Mt 23: 33 is fulfilled--

Mt 23:33 -- Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?\

So Mt 23: 35—37-- would come upon this generation—

Mt 23: 35 That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel unto the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias, whom ye slew between the temple and the altar. 37 -O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee,

36 -Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this generation.

Eze.12: 25--for in your days, O rebellious house, will I say the word, and will perform it, saith the Lord GOD.

WE SEE THAT PCG Sanctuary IS PROFANED BY GOD, Eze. 24: 21.

THIS IS THE TIME OF PCG---WHEN THEY WERE SENT INTO CAPTIVITY, Eze. 12: 13-15

SO THIS GENERATION WOULD HAVE TO REPENT FOR THEIR ISRAEL FATHERS’ DEEDS AS THEY ARE NOT LIVING NOW!!

PCG leaders are only dead in Christ, 1Th 4:16, they are spiritually dead as NATIONS, Eze. 32, --they are to ACT UPON GOD’S WORDS NOW, and reckon as dead with Him, Rom. 6: 11, to get newness of life, Rom. 6: 3-7!

1Th 4:16 -For the Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:

THEY HAVE TO RISE AS NEWNESS OF LIFE IS GIVEN THROUGH HIS BAPTIZM, Rom. 6.

They have to reckon themselves as dead with JESUS CHRIST, Rom. 6. 11.

When they TRUST IN THOSE WORDS, THEY WOULD RISE.

WHEN LORD GIVES KNOWLEDGE HE EXPECTS US TO ACT UPON THEM--

From the example of gentiles we are to learn that when God says He poured His spirit, He expects for us to be doers of the words WHICH ARE HIS SPIRIT, Jo 6: 63, given in bible.

Gentiles were poured His spirit as written in Joel 2: 28, 29----we had to take His Spirit, the words of life, Jo 6: 63 from the bible, and LIVE ACCORDINGLY. WE HAD TO BE DOERS, Jas 1: 22, 25, THAT IS TO BE SPIRITUAL, 1 Co 2; 13-15, Gal 5: 22-23, AND THE ERRED GENTILES, 1 Tim 4: 1-3, ARE BEING JUDGED.

Now ISRAEL are getting a banner to come out in a second exodus, Isa. 11; 9-11---they are expected to READ THE BANNER AND COME OUT UNDERSTANDING Zec 9 11, THAT ONLY THE BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST WOULD RELEASE THEM FROM CAPTIVITY, that is why the articles on baptizm unto His death had been included in the banner.

Eze 20:5 And say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; In the day when I chose Israel, and lifted up mine hand unto the seed of the house of Jacob, and made Myself known unto them in the land of Egypt, when I lifted up Mine hand unto them, saying, I am the LORD your God;

THROUGH Moses LORD MADE HIMSELF KNOWN TO HIS CHOSEN PEOPLE ISRAEL!

ISRAEL SHOULD NEVER FORGET THEIR HISTORY! HOW GOD HELPS THEM ALWAYS!

1 Chr 16: 20—22 shows that God had rebuked kings of other nations so that God’s anointed prophets were not harmed.

SO GOD TAKES CARE OF HIS ANNOINTED SERVANTS.

In the case of PCG leader, who was anointed by God, Eze 16:9, Eze 28:14, Isa 45:1,-- LORD got the gentiles to judge him, Eze. 16: 39-42, Rev. 11: 1-2, BECAUSE LORD GAVE HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS to do so, Isa.54: 17. Gentile judgments are given when we are spiritual who could not be judged by any man, 1 Co 2: 15, and when judgments are done by word of God in LAST DAYS, WHEN JESUS CHRIST IS REJECTED, Jo 12: 48, the SCRIBES APPOINTED, Mt 13: 52 are to show the words of judgments!

Judgments on gentiles show that they had rejected faith in Him, 1 Tim 4: 1-3---ARTTCLE NOS. 436—448 show those judgments found -- In http://www.restoringcaptivity.com

We should know when LORD had formed a man for His purposes, God would get the purpose fulfilled---UNDERSTAND FROM the example of Paul, he was made blind to FEAR GOD to DO WHAT GOD NEEDED, what a great vessel of God Paul became!! Acts 9: 1—16

Acts 9: 15-- But the Lord 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:

Book of Jonah teach us how God got Jonah to give the message to Nineveh which city repented!

Jonah had the experience of being in the belly of a fish and He remembered the temple of God—

Jon 2: 1 -Then Jonah prayed unto the LORD his God out of the fish’s belly,2: --out of the belly of hell cried I, and thou heardest my voice.— 4 Then I said, I am cast out of thy sight; yet I will look again toward thy holy temple.-- 7 When my soul fainted within me I remembered the LORD: and my prayer came in unto thee, into thine holy temple.

8- They that observe lying vanities forsake their own mercy.

9 -But I will sacrifice unto thee with the voice of thanksgiving; I will pay that that I have vowed. Salvation is of the LORD.

10 -And the LORD spake unto the fish, and it vomited out Jonah upon the dry land.

DO WE REALLY LIKE TO BE IN Jonah’s situation?? GOD COULD GET US IN ANY SITUATION!!!---- Jonah understood---8- They that observe lying vanities forsake their own mercy.---- 9--Salvation is of the LORD.

NOW THAT ISRAEL ARE IN CAPTIVITY, compared to BE IN HELL, IN DEEP, Eze. 32---Jonah teaches how to LOOK TO THE TEMPLE OF GOD IN PRAYER!!

Ac 13:17 The God of this people of Israel chose our fathers, and exalted the people when they dwelt as strangers in the land of Egypt, and with an high arm brought He them out of it.

1Ki 8:16 Since the day that I brought forth My people Israel out of Egypt, I chose no city out of all the tribes of ISRAEL to build an house, that My name might be therein; but I chose David to be over My people ISRAEL. (In the recent past God gave 70 years to church, Rom. 9: 4, H.W.Armstrong to rule and PCG to continue that period, ending as a harlot, Isa. 23: 15, please read articles referring to Isa. 23: 15 in http://www.restoringcaptivity.com).

Ho 3:5 -Afterward shall the children of Israel return, and seek the LORD their God, and David their king; and shall fear the LORD and his goodness in the latter days.

All prophecies fulfill---our gentile work was prophesied, Rev. 11: 1-4, they are given land in Judah, Jer. 39: 10, that is serving JESUS CHRIST in Judah, Gen. 49: 8-12, so that people of His in Jerusalem do not magnify themselves, against Judah, Zec 12:7, then HE defends Jerusalem, the feeble serving as David, Zec 12: 8, LORD leading them, vv. 8-10.

SO ALL PROPHECIES FULFILL TO THE JOT!! LORD WAS BORN AS A SEED OF David FROM lineage of Judah-- Mt 1:1 -The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham. Mt 12:23 -And all the people were amazed, and said, Is not this the son of David?--- Gal 4: 4 But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law,--5 To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.

SO THAT WAS HOW HE CAME IN FLESH, 2 Jo 7, TO REDEEM THEM that were UNDER LAW!

JESUS CHRIST the 1^st born among many brethren, Rom. 8: 29, proved that MEN COULD LIVE WITH EVERY WORD OF GOD, HE DID NOT SIN, 2Co 5:21 For He hath made Him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him.

1Jo 3:5 -And ye know that He was manifested to take away our sins; and in Him is no sin.

With JESUS CHRIST everything is possible, He had shed abroad love of God in our hearts, to help us love Him and one another, Rom. 5: 5---He helps us to live by His words, even when we fall, He helps to get up—Pr 24:16- For a just man falleth seven times, and riseth up again: but the wicked shall fall into mischief.

JESUS CHRIST TAUGHT US HOW NOT TO serve Satan—

Mt 4: 1---Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.

Vv. 2—9 show us how JESUS CHRIST did RESIST Satan!

10 -Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and Him only shalt thou serve.

11 -Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto Him.

Heb 4:15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.

SO WE SHOULD IMITATE JESUS CHRIST!

Mt 25:31- When the Son of man shall come in His glory, and all the holy angels with Him, then shall He sit upon the throne of His glory:

After His death and resurrection, JESUS CHRIST became the 1^st born of many brethren, Rom. 8: 29, and in latter days, after the 70 year period given to ISRAEL, Isa. 23: 15, when ISRAEL leader was removed, Isa. 22: 25, Ps. 74: 9, when they broke the covenant, Eze. 16: 59, Eze. 44: 7, gentiles were born as 1^st born of poor, Isa. 14: 30, they are equal to angels, Lu 20: 35, 36.

So gentiles as angels trust Him, Rom. 15; 12, they wait upon His law, Isa. 42: 4, 15, they were put to rule ISRAEL as children, Isa. 3: 4, and then as women, Isa. 3: 12.

SO LORD IS BEING SERVED BY spiritual angels, Lu 20: 36 , born of spirit are compared to angels–that is why gentiles are told –Php 3: 20-- For our citizenship is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ:

Re 19:1 -- And after these things I heard a great voice of much people in heaven, saying, Alleluia; Salvation, and glory, and honour, and power, unto the Lord our God:

LORD SPEAKS IN PARABLES, COMPARISONS…. Mr 4:11.

Ps. 89: 27- Also I will make Him My firstborn, higher than the kings of the earth.

28 -My mercy will I keep for Him for evermore, and My covenant shall stand fast with Him.

29 -His seed also will I make to endure forever, and His throne as the days of heaven.

30 -If His children forsake My law, and walk not in My judgments;

31 -If they break My statutes, and keep not My commandments; {break: Heb. profane }

32 -Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, and their iniquity with stripes.

ISRAEL OR GENTILES---those who do not honour God’s commandments would be VISITED with ROD, their INIQUITIES WITH STRIPES!

199.	IT IS A HEAVENLY THRONE WHEN JESUS CHRIST CAME AS BRANCH OF RIGHTEOUSNESS

Isa. 3: 13-- The LORD standeth up to plead, and standeth to judge the people.

14- The LORD will enter into judgment with the ancients of His people, and the princes thereof: for ye have eaten up the vineyard; the spoil of the poor is in your houses.—THE ELDERS –LEADER AND MINISTRY are VISITED!! They had eaten God’s vineyard!! –the SPOIL OF THE POOR is in your houses---WE POOR gentiles HAD GIVEN SOME MINISTERS ---precious jewels, some gold articles (Given with difficulty, because we honoured God’s leaders) during a ministerial conference!! I do not know whether LORD refers to those things or our articles!!

15 -What mean ye that ye beat My people to pieces, and grind the faces of the poor? saith the Lord GOD of hosts. (When the Regional Director Alex Harrison visited us to question each one of us in front of our minister then, I saw the minister’s face LIKE “grind the faces of the poor”.

The Regional Director was so strict with all of us!!---I was new to church then, and I wondered what type of shepherds the church had!!

Isa. 3: 16 -Moreover the LORD saith, Because the daughters of Zion are haughty, and walk with stretched forth necks and wanton eyes, walking and mincing as they go, and making a tinkling with their feet:---DAUGHTER OF Zion in latter days was Philadelphia Church of God (PCG)!!

They are proud!! Pr 6:16 --These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him:--17-- A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, 18- An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief,

19 -A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.

NOT ONLY ISRAEL, BUT Gentile Witness 1 WHO RULED GENTILES ALSO TURNED TO BE AS Pr 6: 16—19.

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.---ALL EVIL WOULD BE DISCOVERED!

18 In that day the Lord will take away the bravery of their----- 19 The chains,----- 20 The bonnets,----- 21 The rings,----- 22 The changeable suits of apparel, and the mantles,----- 23 The glasses, and the fine linen,--- 24 And it shall come to pass, that instead of sweet smell there shall be stink; and instead of a girdle a rent; and instead of well set hair baldness; and instead of a stomacher a girding of sackcloth; and burning instead of beauty.---- 25 Thy men shall fall by the sword, and thy mighty in the war.---- 26 And her gates shall lament and mourn; and she being desolate shall sit upon the ground.----WHY DOES HE DO ALL THESE??---TO MAKE THE MINISTRY AS GOLD AND SILVER, Mal 3: 1-5.

Each minister would be corrected by JESUS CHRIST!---then He would savour the sacrifices done in David’s throne--

Amos 9: 11-- Am 9:11 In that day will I raise up the tabernacle of David that is fallen, and close up the breaches thereof; and I will raise up his ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old:

LORD’S DESIRE OF SUCH A TABERNACLE WOULD RESULT, IT WOULD BE GLORIOUS AS IN THE DAYS OF OLD! A leader is planned, Jer. 30: 21, 22.

Zec 13: 1- In that day there shall be a fountain opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem for sin and for uncleanness.

We see LORD’S decree regarding the rulership of the type of David over His people, -

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

Eze 34:24 -And I the LORD will be their God, and My servant David a prince among them; I the LORD have spoken it.

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.---LORD HAS POWER TO CHANGE MINDS OF PEOPLE TO OBEY HIM—HE GIVES SUCH A VAST KNOWLEDGE OF HIM AS WE SEE, Isa. 11: 9-11!

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 forever: and My servant David shall be their prince forever.

David type prince serve in Ezekiel temple--Eze 44:3 It is for the prince; the prince, he shall sit in it to eat bread before the LORD; he shall enter by the way of the porch of that gate, and shall go out by the way of the same.--- Eze 45:7 And a portion shall be for the prince on the one side---Eze 45:16 All the people of the land shall give this oblation for the prince in Israel.---

Eze 45:17 And it shall be the prince’s part to give burnt offerings, and meat offerings, and drink offerings, in the feasts, and in the new moons, and in the sabbaths, in all solemnities of the house of Israel:

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.—so the beginnings of months (written as new moons), Sabbaths, Nu 28: 1,2, 9-14, 1 Chr 23: 30-31, -all solemnities of the house of Israel---WOULD BE SEEN---Amos 9: 11 would happen.

David chosen forever---therefore the seed of David (spiritually someone God prepares as David) to serve Him on the throne of ISRAEL—FOREVER!

1 Chr 28: 2 -Then David the king stood up upon his feet, and said, Hear me, my brethren, and my people:-- 4 Howbeit the LORD God of Israel chose me before all the house of my father to be king over ISRAEL forever: for He hath chosen Judah to be the ruler; and of the house of Judah, the house of my father; and among the sons of my father he liked me to make me king over all ISRAEL:-- 5 And of all my sons, (for the LORD hath given me many sons,) he hath chosen Solomon my son to sit upon the throne of the kingdom of the LORD over ISRAEL.

These very facts could be understood very well, when LORD gave the key of David to PCG leader, Isa. 22: 20-24 (although he failed, vs. 25). Then it was given to gentiles led by the LORD, Zec 12: 8-10. Gentile work was prophesied, Rev. 11: 1-4, they are given land in Judah, Jer. 39: 10, that is serving JESUS CHRIST who came in the line of Judah, Gen. 49: 8-12,--

HERE IS PROOF OF LORD DESCENDED AS FROM Judah--

Ruth 4: 11-- The LORD make the woman that is come into thine house like Rachel and like Leah, which two did build the house of Israel: and do thou worthily in Ephratah, and be famous in Bethlehem:---12-- And let thy house be like the house of Pharez, whom Tamar bare unto Judah, of the seed which the LORD shall give thee of this young woman.

17 --And the women her neighbours gave it a name, saying, There is a son born to Naomi; and they called his name Obed: he is the father of Jesse, the father of David.

Mt 1: 1 - The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.

God told David---

1 Chr 28: 6 And He said unto me, Solomon thy son, he shall build My house and My courts: for I have chosen him to be My son, and I will be his father.

7 Moreover I will establish his kingdom forever, if he be constant to do My commandments and My judgments, as at this day.

8 Now therefore in the sight of all Israel the congregation of the LORD, and in the audience of our God, keep and seek for all the commandments of the LORD your God: that ye may possess this good land, and leave it for an inheritance for your children after you forever.

LORD’S COMMANDMENTS –JUDGMENTS ARE TO BE KEPT DILIGENTLY—AND HOUSE OF David HAS TO BE SURE THAT HIS PEOPLE OF ISRAEL KEEP THEM!!

The rulership of David’s descendants as kings of ISRAEL depends on how they PERFORM THEIR WORK SEEKING GOD’S COMMANDMENTS AND JUDGMENTS! In the sight of people, the KINGS are to HONOUR GOD’S COMMANDMENTS AND JUDGMENTS!!

1 Chr 28: 9 And thou, Solomon my son, know thou the God of thy father, and serve Him with a perfect heart and with a willing mind: for the LORD searcheth all hearts, and understandeth all the imaginations of the thoughts: if thou seek Him, He will be found of thee; but if thou forsake Him, He will cast thee off forever.

THE VS. IS VERY CLEAR!! ---God knows our thoughts!! The leader serves GOD ALMIGHTY! -- keep and seek for all the commandments of the LORD your God: that ye may possess this good land, and leave it for an inheritance for your children after you forever.---IN PRESENT TIMES WHEN THE COVENANT WAS BROKEN SERIOUS PROBLEMS ROSE, so David in his psalms prophesied and requested God to save his throne.

Ps 12:1 -A Psalm of David.--Help, LORD; for the godly man ceaseth; for the faithful fail from among the children of men.

Ps 18:27 -For thou wilt save the afflicted people; but wilt bring down high looks.

Ps 22:21 -Save me from the lion’s mouth: (The leader of PCG teaches his own words as a “lion” to destroy God’s people, Jer. 2: 30).

Ps 28:9 -Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance: feed them also, and lift them up forever.

Ps 57:3- He shall send from heaven, and save me from the reproach of him that would swallow me up.(David prays to save him from the “REPROACH OF him”----it is because the continual and daily OF PCG is AS A REPROACH TO GOD, Ps. 74: 22, 23)

Ps 59:2 -Deliver me from the workers of iniquity, and save me from bloody men.

Ps 69:35 For God will save Zion, and will build the cities of Judah:

WE FIND SUCH PRAYERS AND SUPPLICATIONS OF David IN PSALMS –they are prophecies for today as JESUS CHRIST said, Lu 24: 44, 45.

1 Chr 28: 10 Take heed now; for the LORD hath chosen thee to build an house for the sanctuary: be strong, and do it.

11 -Then David gave to Solomon his son the pattern of the porch, and of the houses thereof, and of the treasuries thereof, and of the upper chambers thereof, and of the inner parlours thereof, and of the place of the mercy seat,--- 12 And the pattern of all that he had by the spirit, of the courts of the house of the LORD, and of all the chambers round about, of the treasuries of the house of God, and of the treasuries of the dedicated things:--13 Also for the courses of the priests and the Levites, and for all the work of the service of the house of the LORD, and for all the vessels of service in the house of the LORD. IN Ezekiel temple TOO WE SEE SUCH PATTERNS—Eze.40 onwards.

King Solomon too said of what God told him--2Ch 6:5 Since the day that I brought forth My people out of the land of Egypt----6 But I have chosen Jerusalem, that My name might be there; and have chosen David to be over My people Israel.--- 7 Now it was in the heart of David my father to build an house for the name of the LORD God of ISRAEL.-- 8 But the LORD said to David my father, Forasmuch as it was in thine heart to build an house for My name, thou didst well in that it was in thine heart:

9 Notwithstanding thou shalt not build the house; but thy son which shall come forth out of thy loins, he shall build the house for My name.---SO KING SOLOMON BUILT THE HOUSE FOR THE NAME OF GOD!!

PCG built a house and named it H.W.Armstrong AUDITORIUM!!

They collected tithes and donations from people for the name of God, and did thus!!! God’s name is in small inscriptions!!

2Sa 6:21 -And David said unto Michal, It was before the LORD, which chose me before thy father, and before all his house, to appoint me ruler over the people of the LORD, over Israel: therefore will I play before the LORD.

David was NOT ASHAMED of PRAISNG GOD WHEREVER HE WAS!—David TRULY loved ALMIGHTY GOD of ISRAEL!!

SOLOMON THE WISEST MAN—ALSO SINNED AND BROUGHT JUDGMENTS ON ISRAEL

Solomon the wisest man who ever lived, 2 Chr 1: 11, 12—2 Chr 9: 22 understood that men cannot build God a temple, but men should sacrifice before God, 2 Chr 2: 3-6.

(That is why JESUS CHRIST establishes His temple, Heb. 8: 1, 2).

Although Solomon was the wisest, he failed because of women, and was not loyal to God, 1 Kin 11: 1-8 and LORD became angry with Solomon, vs. 9, therefore KINGDOM WAS TORN, given ten tribes over to Jeroboam, 1 Kin 11: 30-35, but for the sake of David and for the sake of chosen Jerusalem, LORD gave one tribe to Rehoboam, son of Solomon, vs. 36.

LORD will afflict descendants of David, because of Solomon, BUT NOT FOREVER, VS. 39.

(TODAY WE SEE WHY David’s throne had suffered!)---and NOW LORD IS REVIVING the throne of David, Amos 9: 11.

SO LORD’S JUDGMENT FOR SOLOMON’S DISLOYALTY WAS EXECUTED by GOD!

Isa 30:18--for the LORD is a God of judgment:

WE SEE BELOW HOW LORD COMPARES LEADERS WITH David--

1Ki 11:6 -And Solomon did evil -- went not fully after the LORD, as did David his father.

1 kin 14: 31-Rehoboam slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David.-- And Abijam his son reigned in his stead.---- 1 Kin 15: 3 And he walked in all the sins of his father, which he had done before him: and his heart was not perfect with the LORD his God, as the heart of David his father.

4 -Nevertheless for David’s sake did the LORD his God give him a lamp in Jerusalem, to set up his son after him, and to establish Jerusalem: 5 -Because David did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD, and turned not aside from anything that He commanded him all the days of his life, save only in the matter of Uriah the Hittite.---SO WE SEE THAT KEY OF David was given to ISRAEL IN THE END TIME, Isa. 22: 20-24, BECAUSE LORD HAD A COVENANT WITH David, Jer. 33; 24-26.

1Ki 15:11- And Asa did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD, as did David his father.—Asa was FOUND to have DONE as David, but did not destroy high places, you may read more from bible!

JEROBOAM DID EVIL—

Jeroboam did not do as David—1 Kin 14: 7-9.

1 kin 13: 33— Jeroboam returned not from his evil way, but made again of the lowest of the people priests of the high places: whosoever would, he consecrated him, and he became one of the priests of the high places.==34- And this thing became sin unto the house of Jeroboam, even to cut it off, and to destroy it from off the face of the earth.

THIS IS ALSO SIN OF PCG, TAKING STRANGERS INTO GOD’S ALTAR---that is Bamah abomination, Eze.20; 29, Eze. 8: 16, Eze. 11: 1,2, through which covenant was broken, Eze. 44; 7. .

PCG which was given a peg of the key of David, Isa.22: 20-24,--- it was taken back, vs. 25.

Then the responsibility of David was given to gentiles, Zec 12: 8.

THEREFORE Jerusalem WAS AS TOHU AND BOHU, Jer. 4: 23—27, no man of ISRAEL, vs. 25—same judgment as for Jeroboam!

Jer. 4: 25-- I beheld, and, lo, there was no man, and all the birds of the heavens were fled.

NOT A MAN AS the type of David, 1 Kin 2: 2-5, and MINISTRY AS BIRDS, Hos 7: 12, HAVE FLED FROM Jerusalem! LORD is chastising the birds, Hos 7: 12!!

Now these birds are to lodge in the branches of a grown mustard tree, Lu 13:19.

SO LORD COMPARES THE RULER HE PLACES IN HIS TEMPLE WITH David!

THEY SHOULD DO AS David DID, THEN ONLY LORD WOULD BE PLEASED TO SAVOUR THE SACRIFICES---today, HE REQUIRES SACRIFICES OF LIPS---the fruit of our lips giving thanks to His name, Heb. 13; 15..

1 Chr 28: 7, 8 exhorted those serving as David to keep and seek all commandments of God!

BUT THOSE WHO GOT THE KEY OF DAVID IN LATTER DAYS, Isa. 22: 20-24 ARE REBELS--

Isa 28:3 -The crown of pride, the drunkards of Ephraim, shall be trodden under feet:

La 1:15- The Lord hath trodden under foot all my mighty men in the midst of me: He hath called an assembly against me to crush my young men: the Lord hath trodden the virgin, the daughter of Judah, as in a winepress.

PCG errors are written in many articles in ---http://www.restoringcaptivity.com .

Rev. 11: 1-4 GENTILE WITNESSES SERVED IN La. 1: 15, AS THEY SERVE AS David, Zec 12: 8, but as SOME HAD DEPARTED FROM FAITH, Gentile Witness 1 failed in serving as David because she was found to be AGAINST TEACHING GOD’S COMMANDMENTS!

She even teaches of Hagar, and had joined Assyrian, Ps. 83: 6, 8.

Read in ---article Nos. 436—448--- http://www.restoringcaptivity.com

David learnt that Levi had the function of handling ark of covenant—Uzza was killed because he touched the cart carrying the ark of covenant—1 Chr 13: 10-14----

1 Chr 14: 2-- David perceived that the LORD had confirmed him king over Israel, for his kingdom was lifted up on high, because of his people Israel.

----1 Chr 15: 2— Then David said, None ought to carry the ark of God but the Levites: for them hath the LORD chosen to carry the ark of God, and to minister unto him forever.

11-- David called for Zadok and Abiathar the priests,---

12 - And said unto them, Ye are the chief of the fathers of the Levites: sanctify yourselves, both ye and your brethren, that ye may bring up the ark of the LORD God of Israel unto the place that I have prepared for it.

13- For because ye did it not at the first, the LORD our God made a breach upon us, for that we sought Him not after the due order.----David noticed his MISTAKE OF NOT SEARCHING THE DUE ORDER TO CARRY THE ARK!

14--So the priests and the Levites sanctified themselves to bring up the ark of the LORD God of Israel.

15 -And the children of the Levites bare the ark of God upon their shoulders with the staves thereon, as Moses commanded according to the word of the LORD.

GOD OF WHOLE EARTH IS HOLY—AND PERFECT---WE SHOULD SEARCH THE WAYS HE COMMANDS TO DO HIS WORK IN HIS TEMPLE.

SO THE RULERS ARE VERY RESPONSIBLE TO SEARCH HIS WAY TO BE OBEDIENT TO HIM!

ASAPH SERVED DAVID—1 Chr 25: 1-6 (Asaph wrote psalms 73 to 83, 50).

1 Chr 16: 7 - Then on that day David delivered first this psalm to thank the LORD into the hand of Asaph and his brethren.

Read the vv. to note what David said---

8 -Give thanks unto the LORD, call upon His name, make known His deeds among the people.

15- Be ye mindful always of His covenant; the word which He commanded to a thousand generations;

16 -Even of the covenant which He made with Abraham, and of His oath unto Isaac;

17 -And hath confirmed the same to Jacob for a law, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant,

18 -Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance;

19 -When ye were but few, even a few, and strangers in it.

20- And when they went from nation to nation, and from one kingdom to another people;

21 -He suffered no man to do them wrong: yea, He reproved kings for their sakes,

22 -Saying, Touch not Mine anointed, and do My prophets no harm.

23 -Sing unto the LORD, all the earth; shew forth from day to day His salvation.

24 -Declare His glory among the heathen; His marvellous works among all nations.

25 -For great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised: He also is to be feared above all gods.

WE SHOULD LEARN OF WHAT DAVID HAD TO TEACH US!

1 Chr 15: 4 Nevertheless for David’s sake did the LORD his God give him a lamp in Jerusalem, to set up his son after him, and to establish Jerusalem: {lamp: or, candle }

5 Because David did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD, and turned not aside from any thing that he commanded him all the days of his life, save only in the matter of Uriah the Hittite.

GOD PUNISHED DAVID FOR THAT MATTER

2 Sam 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.

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.

LEVITES

Levites are a gift from God to priest, but not strangers, Nu 18: 7

Nu 8: 6-18 says of Levites. Levites taken instead of all 1^st born children of ISRAEL, they are to serve God, vv. 19, 24-25.

Present days, LORD is LEADING AS THE PRIESTHOOD OF MELCHISEDEC ORDER, Heb. 7: 1-3---THEREFORE Levites that are being purified in Mal 3: 1-5, ARE TO SERVE JESUS CHRIST.

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;

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.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.

IT IS THE Levites that broke the covenant, Eze. 16; 59---LORD IS PURIFYING THEM, Mal 3; 1-5.

PART 2—LESSONS FROM HISTORY TO LEARN

HOW LORD JUDGES HIS SERVANTS AND PUNISHES THEM.

The land of ISRAEL IS NOT JUST ANOTHER LAND with PEOPLE.

BUT IT WAS CHOSEN BY GOD ALMIGHTY THE CREATOR FOR HIM TO RULE OVER THEM!! the kings HE PLACES IN HIS LAND HAS TO DO WHAT HE COMMANDS---AND HE TESTS THEM FOR OBEDIENCE.

The following writings are of judgments or punishments LORD gave to His servants who ruled His people ISRAEL. They are written in SHORT, the READERS ARE EXPECTED TO READ MORE FROM THEIR BIBLES, it will take pages to write more about those incidents.

Even the 1^st man Adam was tested for obedience; he caused serious problems to mankind! God gave Adam a test, Ge 2:16, 17!! Adam failed, Gen. 3: 6, then through him sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned, Ro 5:12!!

Adam and Eve were cursed, all mankind get those curses—Gen. 3: 16-19.

Cain, 1^st son of Adam was tested and punished for his offering—Gen. 4: 5-15.

Gen. 4: 13-- And Cain said unto the LORD, My punishment is greater than I can bear.

A lesson from Gen. 4: 7—LORD said--If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door.

Gen. 5: 29-- And he called his name Noah, saying, This same shall comfort us concerning our work and toil of our hands, because of the ground which the LORD hath cursed.

So Noah was a comfort to mankind, as he found grace in the eyes of the LORD.

Ge 6:8 -Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD. (Adam to Noah--Gen. 5:1-29)

Ge 6:9- Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God.

Ge 6:13 And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before Me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth.

14 -Make thee an ark of gopher wood; rooms shalt thou make in the ark,

17- And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh,

18 -But with thee will I establish My covenant;

Genealogy of Noah –Shem—Abraham ---Gen. 11: 10—27.

Gen. 4: 25-- And Adam knew his wife again; and she bare a son, and called his name Seth: For God, said she, hath appointed me another seed instead of Abel, whom Cain slew.

26-- And to Seth, to him also there was born a son; and he called his name Enos: then began men to call upon the name of the LORD.

LORD tested Abraham—

Gen. 12: 1-7 (Abraham was commanded to go from Haran to land of Canaan, Abraham obeyed.

More on Abraham in ---In Nos. 175, 186, 300, 366, 399, 400. 401. 407, 408, 419, 429---in http://www.restoringcaptivity.com

Jacob wrestled with God and prevailed---his life was preserved and his name changed to ISRAEL, Gen. 32: 24—30 ---35: 10.

Balaam was tested—Nu 22: 32—35, ----24: 14, 17, 22, 24.

Nu 22: 33 -And the ass saw me, and turned from me these three times: unless she had turned from me, surely now also I had slain thee, and saved her alive.

34 -And Balaam said unto the angel of the LORD, I have sinned; for I knew not that thou stoodest in the way against me: now therefore, if it displease thee, I will get me back again.

Nu 24: 14- And now, behold, I go unto my people: come therefore, and I will advertise thee what this people shall do to thy people in the latter days. (Prophecy for today).

16- He hath said, which heard the words of God, and knew the knowledge of the most High, which saw the vision of the Almighty,

17- I shall see him, but not now: I shall behold him, but not nigh: there shall come a Star out of Jacob, and a Sceptre shall rise out of ISRAEL,---Balaam prophesied of JESUS CHRIST!

22- Assyrian shall carry thee away captive.---ISRAEL would be mad captive by the Assyrian, ---now the Assyrian is in God’s land, he is Pharaoh God created, Rom. 9: 17, as a vessel of dishonour, Rom. 9: 21, this Pharaoh broke covenant, Eze. 17: 17-20, so Pharaoh is compared to the present leader of PCG who did not guard the covenant, Eze. 16: 59, Eze. 44: 7, and this Pharaoh is compared to Assyrian, Eze. 31: 1-3, now they are all in GRAVES, Eze. 32: 22, 31, (they are DEAD IN CHRIST, 1 Thes 4: 16, as the word of God had slain them, Amos 9: 1, 2, Eze. 9: 6).

Nu 24: 24- And ships shall come from the coast of Chittim, and shall afflict Assyrian.

Chittim is brother of Tarshish, Gen. 10; 4---so those prophecies have fulfilled, ships of Tarshish, Isa. 60; 9, Eze. 30: 3, 9, have appeared and afflicts Assyrian, LORD sent messages from gentile ships, Eze. 30: 3, 9!

Heb 13:8 --Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever.

REUBEN THE FIRSTBORN OF JACOB LOST BRITHRIGHT, because he defiled father’s bed---IT WAS GIVEN TO Ephraim –see below--

Judah PREVAILED ABOVE his brethren---THE RULER JESUS CHRIST CAME FROM Judah

1 Chr 5: 1-2 (Gen. 35: 22)-- 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.

2- For Judah prevailed above his brethren, and of him came the chief ruler; but the birthright was Joseph’s:)—birthright was given to sons of Joseph—but Ephraim before Manasseh, Gen. 48: 20, therefore Ephraim is responsible for breaking covenant as the firstborn, Ps. 78: 9-10---TODAY THAT RESPONSIBILITY WAS GIVEN TO PCG, Eze. 16: 8, they are responsible for Ephraim AS THEY BROKE COVENANT, Eze. 44: 7, Eze.16: 59.

Jacob blessed Joseph’s lads, Gen. 48: 15—16---Ephraim to become a multitude of nations—vv. 19, 20---THUS IN THE END TIME Ephraim OR PCG WERE SCATTERED IN MANY NATIONS, Eze. 12; 13-15, AND THEY FIGHT GOD AS A MULTITUDE OF NATIONS, and COME OUT PURIFIED BY THE BLOOD OF THE LAMB==

Rev. 7: 9-- After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands;
