Mal 3:1 Behold, I
will send My Messenger, and He shall
prepare the way before Me: and the LORD,
whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to His temple, even the messenger of the
covenant, whom ye delight in: behold, He shall come, saith the LORD of
hosts.
Messenger
JESUS CHRIST sends a banner through gentiles, Isa. 11: 9, 10. And HE SAYS--
Mal 4:4 -Remember ye the law of Moses
My servant, which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all ISRAEL, with the statutes and judgments.
LORD has His way in a Sanctuary, Ps 77:
13, and He is establishing His Sanctuary in the midst of ISRAEL, Eze. 37:
24-28, Heb. 8: 1, 2---Rev. 21—22—so His believers are to seek those things of
His---
Mt 6:33- But seek ye
first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added
unto you.
De 4:15 -Take ye therefore good heed unto yourselves; for ye saw
no manner of similitude on the day that the LORD spake unto you in Horeb out
of the midst of the fire:
DEUT 5 says of covenant made AT HOREB---
Deut. 5: 1- And Moses
called all Israel, and said unto them, Hear, O Israel, the statutes and
judgments which I speak in your ears this day, that ye may learn them, and
keep, and do them.
2 The LORD our God made a covenant with us in Horeb.
Deut.
4: 15 said of LORD speaking at HOREB, Deut. 5: 2--the COVENANT WAS MADE IN
HOREB--.
SO
WHAT THE MESSENGER OF THE COVENANT NEEDS IS TO REMEMBER THE OLD LAW (The
details of law are written in old law! We should know particulars!) SO THAT PEOPLE
OF GOD LEARNS MORE ABOUT HIM---
Deut. 4: 1---Now therefore hearken, O Israel, unto the statutes
and unto the judgments, which I teach you, for to do
them, that ye may live, SO AT HOREB LORD COMMANDED
MOSES OF GOD’S LAWS, JUDGMENTS, STATUTES.
BUT
THE OLD COVENANT VANISH AWAY--
Old
covenant vanish away, Heb 8:13- In that he saith, A new covenant, he hath made the first old.
Now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away.
Heb. 7:12- For the priesthood being changed, there is made of
necessity a change also of the law.—
IT
IS ONLY A CHANGE IN THE LAW!
Heb.8: 1---Now of the things which we have spoken this is the
sum: We have such an high priest, who is set on the right hand of the throne of
the Majesty in the heavens;
2 - A minister of the sanctuary, and of the true tabernacle,
which the Lord pitched, and not man.
Therefore,
chosen ISRAEL who has to make the New Covenant, Eze. 16: 60-63 (Philadelphia
Church of God {PCG}, and chosen ISRAEL), HAVE TO BE VIGILANT TO DO WHAT IS TOLD
BY THE MESSENGER OF THE COVENANT ---
When covenant was broken by PCG, Eze.44: 7—that means THEY HAD
REJECTED HIS WORDS! ---therefore WORD OF GOD judges SUCH PEOPLE who had
rejected Him, Jo 12: 48—and the messages would be brought by those who are
spiritual, 1 Co 2: 13, 15, they are gentile 1st born of poor, who
have spiritual food to eat, Isa. 14: 30---they bring messages of God in ships,
Eze. 30: 9, they are ships of Tarshish, Isa. 60: 9. They are SMITHS from
Jerusalem, Jer. 24: 1, Silver spread into plates is brought from Tarshish, Jer.
10: 9, SILVER is SEVEN TIMES PURIFIED WORDS OF GOD, Ps. 12; 6. They were built
up by God, Jer. 24: 5-7, they had faith in JESUS CHRIST, Rom. 15: 12. Some
departed from faith, 1 Tim 4: 1-3. True servants who did not depart from faith,
would continue serving JESUS CHRIST to serve ISRAEL, Isa. 14: 1, 2. They are
made the ministry of New Covenant, ministry of Spirit, ministry of Righteousness, 2 Co 3: 6-9---so we
serve Him giving His messages of NEW COVENANT, Eze. 16: 60-63, to ISRAEL Church
of God, PCG, Rom. 9: 4.
JESUS CHRIST says---Mal 4:4 -Remember ye
the law of Moses My servant, which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all ISRAEL, with the statutes and judgments.
SO THE MESSENGER OF THE NEW COVENANT SAID TO REMEMBER LAW OF
Moses----with the STATUTES and JUDGMENTS, what was said IN HOREB—
.
Mal 4:4 -Remember ye the law of Moses My
servant,--- which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all ISRAEL----THEREFORE WE SHOULD EXAMINE WHAT WAS SAID IN HOREB--
De 5:2 -The LORD our God made a covenant with us in Horeb.
De 4:10 Specially the day
that thou stoodest before the LORD thy God in Horeb, when the LORD said unto me, Gather me the people together, and I will make them hear
My words, that they may learn to fear Me all the days that they shall live upon the
earth, and that they may teach their
children. (For an Eternal covenant---each
generation has to have the knowledge of God’s judgments, commandments, laws, to
worship Him in the manner He requires—
WE SPEAK not of a man—BUT OF
THE CREATOR WHO REQUIRES TO FULFILL HIS PURPOSES, HIS WILL, Rev. 4: 11.
SO EACH GENERATION IS TO TEACH the NEXT GENERATION.
LORD said REMEMBER,----LORD commanded these
unto Moses in Horeb for all ISRAEL,that
they may teach their children.
LORD’S COVENANT is FOREVER, Gen. 9: 16---not only for our generation!
Therefore every generation should take heed
to TEACH the NEXT GENERATION ---TEACH THEIR CHILDREN!
Ps. 78: 5 For He
established a testimony in Jacob, and appointed a law in ISRAEL, which He commanded our fathers, that they should make
them known to their children:
6 -That the generation to come might know them, even the
children which should be born; who should arise and declare them to their
children:
7 -That they might set their hope in God, and not forget the
works of God, but keep his commandments:
Isa. 59: 21 -As for Me,
this is My covenant with them, saith the LORD; My spirit that is upon thee,
and My words which I have put in thy mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy seed, nor
out of the mouth of thy seed’s seed, saith the LORD, from henceforth and forever.
Therefore TEACHING LORD’S
COMMANDMENTS, JUDGMENTS, WORDS HIS SPIRIT, Jo 6: 63, IS ESSENTIAL TO PROLONG THE COVENANT FOREVER!
THAT
IS THE TRUTH---THE LIE IS BEING LAWLESS!
It is a covenant
of peace.
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.---25 -And they shall dwell in the land
that I have given unto Jacob My servant, wherein your fathers have dwelt; and they shall dwell therein, even they, and their children, and their
children’s children for ever: and My servant David shall be their prince forever.
26-
Moreover I
will make a covenant of peace with them; it shall be an everlasting covenant with them: and I will place them, and multiply them, and will set My
sanctuary in the midst of them for evermore.
27- My
tabernacle also shall be with them: yea, I will be their God, and they shall be
My people.
28- And
the heathen shall know that I the LORD do sanctify Israel, when My
sanctuary shall be in the midst of them for evermore.----HEATHEN!!—when
ISRAEL are in captivity, they do the things the world does---NOT AS GOD REQUIRES!
Then they are like HEATHEN to God, “because ye have borne the shame of the
heathen” says God, Eze. 36: 6, “their way was before me as the uncleanness of a
removed woman” says the LORD, vs. 17.
But
LORD builds ISRAEL, Eze.36: 8 -But ye, O mountains of Israel, ye shall shoot forth your branches,
and yield your fruit to My people of
Israel; for they are at hand
to come.
9 -For, behold, I am for you, and I will
turn unto you, and ye shall be tilled and sown:
10 -And I will multiply men upon you, all the house of
Israel, even all of it: and the cities shall be inhabited, and the
wastes shall be builded: 11- And
I will multiply upon you man
and beast; and they shall increase and bring fruit: and I will settle you after your old estates, and will do better unto
you than at your beginnings: and ye shall know that I
am the LORD.--12 Yea, I will cause men to walk upon you, even
My people Israel; and they shall possess thee, and thou shalt be their
inheritance, and thou shalt no more henceforth bereave them of men.
COMING
BACK TO Deut 4----
De 4:15 -Take ye therefore good heed unto yourselves; for ye saw
no manner of similitude on the day that the LORD spake unto you in Horeb out of
the midst of the fire:
1Ki 8:9 There was nothing
in the ark save the two tables of stone, which Moses put there at Horeb, when
the LORD made a covenant with the children of Israel,
MESSAGES
OF Deut 4 ARE WRITTEN IN THIS ARTICLE…
Deut.
4: 15 said of LORD speaking at HOREB.
Deut. 4: 1---Now therefore hearken, O Israel, unto the statutes
and unto the judgments, which I teach you, for to do
them, that ye may live, and go in and possess the land which the
LORD God of your fathers giveth you. To give the promise—we ought
to KEEP HIS STATUTES, JUDGMENTS which MOSES TAUGHT because they were GIVEN BY
GOD---then only ISRAEL WOULD KEEP THE ETERNAL COVENANT!
PLEASE REMEMBER THAT THERE IS THE NEW LAWS
OF SPIRIT OF LIFE, Rom. 8: 2, AS LAWS CHANGED WITH THE New Covenant, Heb. 7:
12.-BUT WE SEE THEY ARE LAW taught by
Moses, FULFILLED WITH LOVE, Rom. 13: 8-10.
WE SHOULD UNDERSTAND----UNLESS WE KNOW LAWS with their judgments,
TAUGHT BY MOSES, WE CANNOT UNDERSTAND THE DETAILS of New Covenant.
That is why LORD says the
whole volume concern JESUS CHRIST, Ps 40:7, Heb 10:7
Deut. 4: 2 -Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you,
neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of
the LORD your God which I command you. EVEN Rev. 22: 18, 19, says He
would punish if anyone adds to His words or take out any words!
Deut. 4: 5- Behold, I have taught you statutes and
judgments, even as the LORD my God commanded me, that ye should do so in the
land whither ye go to possess it. We see land is distributed to
tribes of ISRAEL---Eze. 48, that is after ordinances of Ezekiel temple are
kept, Eze. 43: 18-27, Eze. 45: 18-25.
Deut. 4: 6- Keep
therefore and do them; for this is your wisdom and your understanding in the
sight of the nations, which shall hear all these statutes, and say, Surely this
great nation is a wise and understanding people. 7- For what nation is there so
great, who hath God so nigh unto them, as the LORD our God is in all things
that we call upon him for?
8- And what nation is there so great, that
hath statutes and judgments so righteous as all this law, which I set before
you this day?
NOBODY ELSE IN THE WORLD ARE GIVEN
LORD’S PRECIOUS THINGS TO HAVE PEACE ---if we see the calamities of the world,
who would want to SUFFER SUCH THINGS???
But if we follow God’s judgments to do
them, HE WOULD BLESS US WITH PEACE AND CONTENTMENT.
Deut.4: 9- Only
take heed to thyself, and keep thy soul diligently, lest thou forget the things
which thine eyes have seen, and lest they depart from thy heart all the days of
thy life: but teach them thy sons, and thy sons’ sons;
10- Specially
the day that thou stoodest before the LORD thy God in Horeb, when the LORD said
unto me, Gather me the people together, and I will make them hear My words,
that they may learn to fear me all the days that they shall live upon the
earth, and that they may teach their children.
SO
THE LESSONS ARE—
·
Keep
God’s statutes, judgments, commandments
·
That
is your wisdom and understanding
·
ISRAEL
is the great nation to whom LORD is NIGH! ISRAEL could call upon Him for
anything!
·
The
laws, commandments, judgments LORD HAD SET BEFORE ISRAEL ARE RIGHTEOUS! They
are given by the sun of Righteousness, Mal 4; 2.
·
Take
heed—keep your soul diligently to obey Him.
·
Do
not forget –keep them in hearts all the days you live
·
Teach
your sons and grandsons
·
Specially
what you heard at HOREB—Mal 4: 4 requires to know what
was told at HOREB!
·
That
is the time LORD gathers His people to Him!
·
That
time LORD makes HIS PEOPLE to HEAR HIM
·
Then
people would LEARN TO FEAR GOD ALL THE DAYS OF THEIR LIVES!
·
AND
THEY TEACH THEIR CHILDREN OF ALMIGHTY GOD OF ISRAEL!
·
Praise
be to the God of ISRAEL, Amen.
NOW, LORD had made the gentile work for ISRAEL, Isa. 14: 1,2, to
hear HIM, to know HIM AS SAVIOUR
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 60: 17 -For brass I will bring gold, and for iron I will bring
silver, (Here LORD says of Malachi purification---therefore these vv. are
about ministry).
Isa. 60: 18 -Violence shall no more be heard in thy land,
wasting nor destruction within thy borders; but thou shalt call thy walls
Salvation, and thy gates Praise. (No more violence among
ministry!)
Isa. 60: 22 -A little one
shall become a thousand, and a small one a strong nation: I the LORD
will hasten it in His time.
Thus LORD speaks of His people who would be
made priests of His---SMALL ONE A “NATION”!---
·
Here the gentiles
are spoken a small one as a “nation”, they
are also spoken as ministry, Jer. 3: 15, 1 Pe 2: 9 (a royal priesthood),
·
the ministry of
ISRAEL represent nations belonging to
land of Chaldeans and Babylon, Eze. 12: 13-15, dispersed in unknown countries,
Eze. 32: 9, captives to come from nations, Eze. 39: 28, 29, from Egypt and
other nations, Jer. 23: 7.
·
Judah in
captivity in nations, La. 1; 3
Kings
are leaders of nations!
THEN WE SHOULD UNDERSTAND
WHAT GOD MEANS BY ‘KING of kings’---
THE “kings” ARE PRIESTS OF
GOD---AS WE SEE IN THE FOLLOWING VV. (some vv. means for ISRAEL, some for
GENTILES).
LORD
says of KING PRIESTS!
Ex 19:6 -And ye shall be
unto Me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation. These are the words
which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel.
Isa 61:6 -But ye shall be
named the Priests of the LORD: men shall call you the Ministers of our God:
ye shall eat the riches of the Gentiles, and in their glory shall ye boast
yourselves. 7 For your shame ye shall
have double; (Gentiles, Isa. 14: 30, are to serve ISRAEL, Isa. 14: 1, 2, of
messages of JESUS CHRIST from ships, Eze. 30: 9, (those ships are of Tarshish,
Isa. 60: 9).
1Pe 2:5 -Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house,
an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God
by Jesus Christ.
Re 1:6 -And hath made us kings and priests unto God and His Father; to
Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.
Re 5:10 -And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall
reign on the earth.
Re 20:6 -Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first
resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and
of Christ, and shall reign with Him a thousand years.
LORD DROVE AWAY ISRAEL
LEADERS TO REPRESENT NATIONS---and He gathers--
Jer 29:14 -And I will be
found of you, saith the LORD: and I will turn away your captivity, and I will
gather you from all the nations, and from all the places whither I have driven you,
saith the LORD; and I will bring you again into the place whence I caused you
to be carried away captive.
LORD SAYS NATIONS ARE IN CAPTIVITY—the priests who ERRED and DID
NOTHING WHEN GOD’S COVENANT WAS BROKEN, Eze. 44: 7 ARE TERMED BY GOD AS leaders
of “NATIONS”---and they were given the cup of fury mentioned in Jer. 25.
AND WHEN THE THOUSAND YEARS ARE OVER---IT
IS PASSING AS “ONE DAY”—Ps. 90: 4--
Ps. 90: 4— For a thousand years in thy sight are but as
yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night.
5 -Thou carriest them away as with a flood; they are as a sleep:
in the morning they are like grass which groweth up.
7 - For we are consumed by thine anger, and by thy wrath are we
troubled.
8 -Thou hast set our iniquities before thee, our secret sins in
the light of thy countenance.
10
-The days of our years are
threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years,
yet is their strength
labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.----SEVENTY YEARS---or by
STRENGTH which produces SORROW----EIGHTY YEARS—
CHURCH WAS GIVEN
------SEVENTY YEARS---(Isa. 23: 15)----1934—2004----then 80 years COMPLETE IN
2014!! ---the time is NIGH!!
After 70 years church becomes a harlot,
Isa. 23: 15, and God ordained gentile work to judge PCG, Eze. 16: 40-42----PCG
still works with their own words, Jer. 2: 30, but with sorrow as book of
Lamentation shows, they are Laodiceans, Rev. 3: 17----IT WOULD BE SOON CUT OFF!
God
gives afflictions to leaders whom He places, to make them understand THAT HIS
PURPOSES would FULFILL even if we have to suffer---and we are NOT TO MOURN
ABOUT THOSE---BUT GO AHEAD WORKING IN HIS TEMPLE---
Examples—
Lev.
10 records the deaths of Aaron’s two sons, Nadab and Abihu were killed by
LORD’S FIRE, when they offered profaned fire---but Aaron was not even to see
their dead bodies---but to carry on duties of temple. Aaron understood that the two sons
would have defiled the WHOLE LAND!
Similarly,
Eze 24:16 -Son of man, behold, I take away from thee the desire
of thine eyes with a stroke: yet neither shalt thou mourn nor weep, neither
shall thy tears run down.
Prophet of PCG LOST HIS WIFE ACCORDING TO THAT PROPHECY, and he was
required to continue working! LORD’S SERVANTS’ DUTIES SHOULD BE VERY CAREFULLY
DONE!! PCG leader broke God’s covenant---LORD makes him realize that God could
take away his wife too!! Vengeance belong to God----GOD HAD CREATED CHURCH FOR
HIS PURPOSE, TO EXALT HIM AND TO WORSHIP HIM BY CHURCH---the leaders duty is to
PERFORM THANKSGIVING SERVICES TO PRAISE AND SING OF HIS GLORY AND MAJESTY---not
to say that we men are “G” Gods!! Gerald Flurry wrote so, and became the “man
of sin” 2 The 2: 1-7.
De 8:5 -Thou shalt also consider in thine heart, that, as a man chasteneth
his son, so the LORD thy God chasteneth thee.
Afflictions
come to God’s people---
Ru 1:20 -And she said unto them, Call me not Naomi, call me
Mara: for the Almighty hath dealt very bitterly with me.—but
Naomi was blessed to be the grandmother of David,
Ru 4: 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.
SOME
TIMES afflictions ARE LESSONS FOR OTHERS--
Job 6:4 -For the arrows of the Almighty are within me, the
poison whereof drinketh up my spirit: the terrors of God do set themselves in
array against me.---Job 16:12 I was at
ease, but He hath broken me asunder: He hath also taken me by my neck, and
shaken me to pieces, and
set me up for His mark. (SET
AS AN EXAMPLE).
Ps 66:11-Thou broughtest us into the net; thou laidst affliction
upon our loins.
Ps 90:7 -For we are consumed by thine anger, and by thy wrath
are we troubled.
Ps 102:9-For I have eaten ashes like bread, and mingled my drink
with weeping,
Ps 102:10 -Because of thine indignation and thy wrath: for thou
hast lifted me up, and cast me down.
PEOPLE
SHOULD UNDERSTAND THE LORD’S WILL TO ESTABLISH HIS ETERNAL COVENANT ---just as
people could enjoy the world GOD’S CREATION, HE REQUIRES HIS PURPOSES TO BE
ESTABLISHED!!
HE
CREATED WORLD AND ALL IN IT FOR HIS PURPOSES AND HIS WILL TOO, Rev. 4; 11.
PEOPLE HAVE THEIR OWN WAYS AND FORGOTTEN GOD!!
They
even call themselves “G” Gods, as PCG leaders did, as H.W.Armstrong had taught
so!
MESSENGER OF COVENANT IS PERFORMING HIS SHORT WORK, TO SHOW
HIS POWER, THAT HE IS THE LORD---Rom. 9: 17, 28.
He
requires HIS PEOPLE to MAKE THE EVERLASTING COVENANT! His purpose WOULD BE
DONE!
MESSENGER OF COVENANT SAYS------Mal 4:4 -Remember ye the law of Moses My servant, which I commanded
unto him in Horeb for all ISRAEL, with the statutes and judgments.
God
chose a people unto Himself in a covenant, they
are ISRAEL, Deut. 4, (Explained below shows how it is being repeated
today through His spirit).
The
following vv. of Deut. 4 shows that ALMIGHTY GOD LOVES ISRAEL HIS CHOSEN—(The
chosen who makes covenant is His people to whom He gives the RIGHT TO HIS
COVENANT AND SERVICE, Rom. 9: 4, 6).
De 4:31--(For the LORD thy God is a merciful God) He will not
forsake thee, neither destroy thee, nor forget the covenant of thy
fathers which He sware unto them.—NOW it is a time that
the covenant is broken, Eze. 44: 7, and His people in captivity in nations,
Jer. 33: 24-26, Eze. 12: 13-15..
32 For ask now of the days that are
past, which were before thee, since the day that God created man upon the
earth, and ask from the one side of heaven unto the other, whether there hath
been any such thing as this great thing is, or hath been heard like it?--33 -Did ever people hear the voice of God speaking out
of the midst of the fire, as thou hast heard, and live?
34 -Or hath God assayed to go and take Him a
nation from the midst of another nation, by temptations, by
signs, and by wonders, and by war, and by a mighty hand, and by a stretched out
arm, and by great terrors, according to all that the LORD your God
did for you in Egypt before your eyes?---TODAY—LORD
speaks through FIRE, HIS WORDS, Jer. 5; 14, ---OUT OF THE WHOLE WORLD, LORD
chooses His church to make the New Covenant, Eze. 16: 60-63!
LORD created Egypt, as His people in Egypt, Jer. 44: 1,2, to get
them to Him in A SECOND EXODUS, after giving them knowledge through a banner of
gentiles who wait on the LORD, Isa. 11: 9-11. This knowledge is to make the Eternal Covenant.
Deut. 4: 35 Unto thee it was shewed, that thou mightest
know that the LORD He is God; there is none
else beside Him.---WELL, THEY ARE A VERY BLESSED CHOSEN PEOPLE OF GOD!!—TODAY HE
SHOWS HIS POWERS TO HIS CHURCH, through a created Pharaoh, Rom. 9; 17---ALMIGHTY GOD AS CREATOR COULD USE HIS CREATED PEOPLE TO
ACCOMPLISH HIS PURPOSES, Rev. 4: 11, WE
ARE MEN WHO WOULD BE USED IN HIS MERCY FOR HIS PURPOSES—WHEN WE UNDERSTAND HIS
WILL, WE SHOULD SUBMIT TO SERVE HIM WHOLEHEARTEDLY!
When
HE HAD PREDISTINED the WORK OF THE LAMB,
1 Pe 1: 19, 20, ALL THOSE TO BE PURIFIED BY JESUS CHRIST as LAMB, Rev.
7: 14-17, Rev. 14: 1-3, too had been predestined, LORD KNEW HIS WORK AMDIST THE
CAPTIVE NATIONS, He predestined to bring out captives of ISRAEL THROUGH HIS
BLOOD, Zec 9: 11. So all His work had been preplanned
which are written in all prophets! David too had prophesied them in psalms.
(He chastens ISRAEL and gentiles who were made as 1st
born of poor, Isa. 14: 30, as they are sons, Heb 12:6 -For whom the Lord
loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth. Heb 12:7 -If
ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he
whom the father chasteneth not?---gentiles too are as sons, Isa. 56: 2-7—ANY WHOM HE HAD CHOSEN as sons WOULD BE CHASTENED!)
Deut. 4:-36 -Out of heaven He made thee to hear His voice, that
He might instruct thee: and upon earth He shewed thee His great fire; and thou
heardest His words out of the midst of the fire.—TODAY
HE SPEAKS from a throne set in heaven, Rev. 4: 1-3, as these days are as “DAYS
OF HEAVEN, Ps. 89: 29—please read of heavenly throne in article Nos. 55,
162, 182, 199, 265, 290, 442, in--http://www.restoringcaptivity.com
Deut. 4:37 And because He loved thy fathers, therefore He chose their
seed after them, and brought thee out in His sight with
His mighty power out of Egypt;
38 -To drive out nations
from before thee greater and mightier than thou art, to bring thee in, to give
thee their land for an inheritance, as it is this day.—TODAY—the
captives as Many Nations are fighting LORD –and He wins as Lamb, Re 17:14, to
give them spiritual inheritance as recorded in Eze.47, 48.
God
makes His purposes fulfilled through His servants the prophets. In History of
ISRAEL, Moses, Aaron did serve as LORD directed them. Jonah tried to run away
from His appointed work, but God made Jonah travel in the belly of a fish, to
get LORD’S PURPOSE fulfilled in Nineveh.
GOD DOES MARAVELLOUS THINGS TO GET HIS WORK
DONE. THEY WOULD BE MADE ACCORDING TO HIS PURPOSE!
PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT HE HAD MADE
VESSELS OF HONOUR AND DISHONOUR FOR HIS SHORT WORK, Rom. 9: 21.
In
these last days when God had shown the rainbow to the prophet He placed in PCG
(Philadelphia Church of God), Eze. 1: 28, LORD meant that He was
establishing HIS ETERNAL COVENANT promised to Noah, Gen. 9: 16, 17. But prophet
of PCG did not understand ---It was purposed to be fulfilled by the work of
JESUS CHRIST, in His throne of
heaven, a rainbow found round about the THRONE, Rev. 4: 1-3, it is the
DAY OF THE LORD when He came in clouds,
it is GENTILES’ times, Eze. 30; 1-3, rainbows
appear IN CLOUDS! Rev. 11: 1-4 shows the gentiles of outer court of PCG
commissioned to tread inner court, serving LORD, La. 1: 15, this is a time the
church had gone into spiritual captivity in NATIONS.
First
they went to Egypt, although LORD gave all knowledge to Jerusalem, they did not
repent of THEIR DISOBEDIENCE TO GOD, Jer. 44: 1-5. (Since LORD considers
Jews as gone to Egypt, He created the leader as Pharaoh, to show His power,
Rom. 9; 17, it is the leader who broke covenant, Eze. 44: 7, Eze. 16: 59, that
is compared to Pharaoh, who were then sent to Babylon, Eze. 17: 17-20). Egypt
was then dispersed in many UNKNOWN nations, Eze. 32: 9 (They are
spiritually spoken). As LORD is pouring His spirit now
to Jews in captivity (Prophecies fulfill among the chosen in the temple, NOT ON
ALL ISRAEL, Rom. 9: 4, 6, in Judah and Jerusalem, Jer. 25; 1,2, 13), and LORD’S PURPOSE IS TO MAKE
THE NEW ETERNAL COVENANT among the CHOSEN IN CHURCH, Eze. 16: 60-63. LORD is
writing the laws in hearts, Heb. 8: 10, Heb. 10: 16,
THE
ETERNAL COVENANT IS MADE ACCORDING TO GOD’S LAWS, and NOT according
to men’s covenants, Eze. 16: 61, Eze.16: 59—63
shows PCG would mother the rest of the chosen when LORD makes the ETERNAL
COVENANT, Eze. 37: 24-28. The sum of God’s work is ESTABLISHING HIS
TEMPLE, Heb. 8: 1,2. LORD is preparing HIS MINISTRY (MALACHI PURIFICATION,
Mal 3: 1-5), Leader, and congregation, Jer. 30:
18-22.
Jer. 30: 23 -Behold, the whirlwind of the LORD goeth forth with
fury, a continuing
whirlwind: it shall fall with pain upon the head of the wicked.
(LORD’S PUNISHMENT for going against God’s commandments!—God does not require
UNSANCTIFIED STRANGERS in God’s ALTAR, Lev. 22: 25, and PCG brought Bamah
ministers, Eze. 20; 29, thus broke covenant, Eze. 44: 7)
Jer.30; 24 -The fierce anger of the LORD shall not return, until He have done
it, and until He have performed the intents of His heart: in the latter days ye shall consider it.
The work of gentiles had brought LORD’S
continuing whirlwind IN LATTER DAYS!
LORD
chose ISRAEL as His family, only two families God knew intimately, seed of
Jacob, and David His servant, they would be brought from captivity, THIS IS THE
GOD OF WHOLE EARTH SPEAKING, Jer. 33: 24—26.
NOW THAT LORD IS PREPARING
PCG FOR MAKING THE ETERNAL COVENANT OF PEACE, Eze. 16: 60-63, 37: 24-28---we
should examine HOW LORD DID IN THE 1ST COVENANT—
Deut.
4:4-15, 20,22
Deut.4: 4--But ye that
did cleave unto the LORD your God are alive every one of you this day.
5 Behold, I have taught you statutes and
judgments, --
6 -Keep therefore and do them;
for this is your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the nations,
which shall hear all these statutes, and say, Surely this great nation is a
wise and understanding people.(Wisdom of ISRAEL would be
shown through GOD’S STATUTES and JUDGMENTS). ---7 -For what nation is there so great, who hath God so nigh
unto them, as the LORD our God is in all things that we call upon Him for?
8 And what nation is
there so great, that hath statutes and judgments so righteous as all this law,
which I set before you this day?
9
---- teach them thy sons, and thy sons’ sons;
(Could we understand the AWESOME GOD giving HIS RIGHTEOUS STATUTES,
and JUDGMENTS of HIS to His chosen people??
THE NEED TO
PRESERVE COVENANT---Deut. 4: 13 -And He declared unto you His covenant,
Deut. 4: 10 Specially the day that thou stoodest before
the LORD thy God in Horeb,
when the LORD said unto me, Gather Me the people together, and I
will make them hear My words, that they may learn to fear Me all the days that
they shall live upon the earth, and that they may teach their children. (ALL
THE DAYS means forever---generations of ISRAEL LIVE FOREVER! Then in an ETERNAL
COVENANT, EACH GENERATION ought to teach them to THEIR NEXT GENERATION!!---but
it did not happen!).
11 And ye came near and
stood under the mountain; --12 And the LORD spake unto you out of the
midst of the fire: ye
heard the voice of the words, but saw no similitude; only ye heard a voice.(Even
today LORD speaks out of fire of His words, Jer. 5: 14).
13 -And He declared unto you His covenant,
which He commanded you to perform, even ten commandments; and He wrote them
upon two tables of stone.
(Today, LORD gave the same
commandments, Rom. 13: 8-10,
they are fulfilled with love, vs. 10.
WHAT IS LOVE?
2 Jo 6- And this is love, that we walk
after His commandments. This is the commandment,
That, as ye have heard
from the beginning, ye should walk in it.
Rom. 5: 5-- the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy
Spirit which is given unto us.
{Holy Spirit was given to gentiles, Joel 2: 28, 29, and LORD is pouring
His Holy Spirit to captives to bring them from captivity, Eze. 39; 28, 29, for
that purpose He gives His banner through gentiles, to bring them in a second
exodus, Isa. 11: 9—11}.----
Rom. 5: 5-love of God is shed
abroad in our hearts----THAT IS WRITING LAWS OF HIS IN OUR HEARTS, Heb. 8: 10,
Heb. 10: 16.
SO LORD IS PREPARING THE
HEARTS OF HIS CHOSEN, Eze. 16: 60-62 to MAKE THE New Covenant!
EXAMINING THE OLD COVENANT,
WE REALSIE THAT LORD IS PREPARING THE HEARTS OF HIS CHOSEN PEOPLE TO MAKE THE
MARRIAGE COVENANT!
Deut. 4:14 -And the LORD commanded me at that time to teach you statutes and
judgments, that ye might do them in the land whither ye go over to possess it.
15 -Take ye therefore good heed unto yourselves; for ye saw no
manner of similitude on the day that the LORD spake unto you in Horeb out of
the midst of the fire:
20-- But the LORD hath
taken you, and brought you forth out of the iron furnace, even out of Egypt, to be unto Him a people of inheritance,
as ye are this day.
21 Furthermore the LORD
was angry with me for your sakes, and sware that I should not go over Jordan,
and that I should not go in unto that good land, which the LORD thy God giveth
thee for an inheritance:
22 -But I must die in
this land, I must not go over Jordan: but ye shall go over, and possess that
good land.(LORD judges His servants ---when they
disobey even by small mistakes, HIS NAME COULD BE AFFECTED, Nu 20: 7—13).
GOD’S SERVANTS SHOULD DO EXACTLY HOW THE
LORD COMMANDS1
De 4:30 says the former
things happened to ISRAEL would happen in LATTER DAYS
De 4:24---For the LORD thy God is a consuming fire, even a
jealous God.
25 When thou shalt beget
children, and children’s children, and ye shall have remained long in the
land, and shall corrupt yourselves, and make a graven image, or the
likeness of anything, and shall do evil in the sight of the LORD thy God, to
provoke Him to anger:
26 I call heaven and
earth to witness against you this day, that ye shall soon utterly perish from
off the land whereunto ye go over Jordan to possess it; ye shall not prolong
your days upon it, but shall utterly be destroyed.
27 And the LORD shall
scatter you among the nations, and ye shall be left few in number among the
heathen, whither the LORD shall lead you.
28 And there ye shall
serve gods, the work of men’s hands, wood and stone, which neither see, nor
hear, nor eat, nor smell.
29 But if from thence
thou shalt seek the LORD thy God, thou shalt find him, if thou seek him with
all thy heart and with all thy soul.
30 When thou art
in tribulation, and all these things are come upon thee, even in the latter days,
if thou turn to the LORD thy God, and shalt be obedient unto His voice;
So
vs. 30 says—THIS IS THE TIME ISRAEL WOULD BE DISTRESSED AND THEN THEY WOULD
TURN TO GOD OF ISRAEL TO OBEY HIS VOICE.
Deut.
4: 31 36 HAD BEEN EXPLAINED IN THIS ARTICLE.
In
Deut. Chapters 4, 5, 6---god speaks of His laws, statutes, commandments,
judgments, testimonies….for ISRAEL to do them---because that is HOW THE
COVENANT PROMISED TO FATHERS COULD BE CONTINUED---read in those vv.----
Deut. 4: 37-- And because He loved thy fathers,
therefore He chose their seed after them, and brought thee out in His sight
with His mighty power out of Egypt;
38=To drive out nations from before thee greater and mightier
than thou art, to bring thee in, to give thee their land for an inheritance, as
it is this day.
39 -Know therefore this
day, and consider it in thine heart, that the LORD He is God in heaven above,
and upon the earth beneath: there is none else.
ISRAEL is so blessed to have GOD OF WHOLE EARTH nigh to them!
Deut 4: 40 Thou shalt
keep therefore His statutes, and His commandments, which I command thee this
day, that it may go well with thee, and with thy children after thee, and that
thou mayest prolong thy days upon the earth, which the LORD thy God giveth
thee, for ever.

False conversion—Nos. 57
Faith, laws of faith--- fight the good fight of F—No. 99-- LAWS
AND LIGHT OF JESUS CHRIST –68, 94, 99, 100, 103, 105, 106, 107, 109, 117, Under

225---CLEANSING according to true vision of God--No. 307
SINCE JESUS CHRIST CHANGED LAW, Heb. 7: 12, God’s people are to
follow THE LAWS OF SPIRIT OF LIFE, Rom. 8: 2, which resembles old laws, Rom.
13: 8-10, 2 Jo 6.
Deut. 4: 44 And this is
the law which Moses set before the children of Israel:
45 These are the
testimonies, and the statutes, and the judgments, which Moses spake unto the
children of Israel, after they came forth out of Egypt,
DEUT 5 says of covenant made AT HOREB---
Deut. 5: 1- And Moses
called all Israel, and said unto them, Hear, O Israel, the statutes and
judgments which I speak in your ears this day, that ye may learn them, and
keep, and do them.
2 The LORD our God made a covenant with us in Horeb.
3 The LORD made not this
covenant with our fathers, but with us, even us, who are all of us here alive
this day.
4 The LORD talked with
you face to face in the mount out of the midst of the fire,
THESE DAYS TOO LORD SPEAKS THROUGH FIRE, which are HIS WORDS, Jer.
5; 14, EVEN BRIMSTONE pouring on the wicked, Ps. 11: 6.
Deut. 5 --(I stood between the LORD and you at that time, to
shew you the word of the LORD: for ye were afraid by reason of the fire, and
went not up into the mount;) saying,
THEN LORD GAVE THE TEN COMMANDMENTS---THEY ARE WHAT IS GIVEN NOW
TOO, BUT FULFILLED WITH LOVE, Rom. 13: 8-10. They are seen below in Deut. 5--
6 - I am the LORD thy God, which brought thee out of the land of
Egypt, from the house of bondage. (Today too LORD delivers out
from Egypt and other countries, Jer. 23: 7, 8, as He had scattered them all
over, Eze. 12: 13-15).
7 -Thou shalt have none other gods before Me.—ISRAEL
HAS ONLY ONE GOD!—JESUS CHRIST the GOD OF WHOLE EARTH, HUSBAND OF ISRAEL, Isa.
54: 5.
8 Thou shalt not make
thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or
that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the waters beneath the earth:
9 Thou shalt not bow down
thyself unto them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God,
visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and
fourth generation of them that hate me,
10 And shewing mercy unto
thousands of them that love Me and keep My commandments.
11 Thou shalt not take
the name of the LORD thy God in vain: for the LORD will not hold him guiltless
that taketh His name in vain.---DO NOT TAKE HIS NAME IN VAIN----BUT
SERVE HIM AS HE REQUIRES---when YOU TAKE HIS NAME---DEPART FROM INIQUITY, 2 Tim
2: 19.
HALLOW
HIS Sabbaths---
12 Keep the sabbath day
to sanctify it, as the LORD thy God hath commanded thee.
13 Six days thou shalt
labour, and do all thy work:
But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it
thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy
manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thine ox, nor thine ass, nor any of thy
cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates; that thy manservant and thy
maidservant may rest as well as thou.
15 And remember that thou
wast a servant in the land of Egypt, and that the LORD thy God brought thee out
thence through a mighty hand and by a stretched out arm: therefore the
LORD thy God commanded thee to keep the sabbath day.
REMEMBER
THAT LORD saved ISRAEL OUT OF Egypt---the Sabbath is a sign for thet!
16- Honour thy father and
thy mother, as the LORD thy God hath commanded thee; that thy days may be
prolonged, and that it may go well with thee, in the land which the LORD thy
God giveth thee.
17 -Thou shalt not kill.
18 -Neither shalt thou commit adultery.
19 -Neither shalt thou steal.
20- Neither shalt thou bear false witness against thy neighbour.
21 -Neither shalt thou desire thy neighbour’s wife, neither
shalt thou covet thy neighbour’s house, his field, or his manservant, or his
maidservant, his ox, or his ass, or any thing that is thy neighbour’s.
SO THOSE ARE WHAT WAS SPOKEN IN HOREB THAT HAS TO BE REMEMBERED,
2 Jo 6-- And this is love, that we walk after His commandments. This is the commandment, That, as ye have heard from the
beginning, ye should walk in it.
SO
FROM THE BEGINNING THESE LAWS WERE GIVEN---AND LORD FULFILLED THEM WITH LOVE,
Rom. 13: 8-10, THE LOVE HAD BEEN SHED ABRAOD IN HEARTS WHEN POURING HIS SPIRIT,
Rom. 5; 5---therefore it is easier to keep commandments fulfilled with love!
Deut. 5: 22 These words
the LORD spake unto all your assembly in the mount out of the midst of the
fire, of the cloud, and of the thick darkness, with a great voice: and He added
no more. And He wrote them in two tables of stone, and delivered them unto me.
TODAY THE LORD POURS HIS SPIRIT INTO HEARTS of captives, Eze. 39:
28, 29, THEREFORE THEY WOULD BE WRITTEN IN HEARTS, Heb. 8: 10, Heb. 10: 16.
Vv. 23 –28 says that people wanted Moses to hear God and convey
His words to them.
Vs. 29- O that there were such an heart in
them, that they would fear Me, and keep all My commandments always, that it
might be well with them, and with their children forever!
THAT IS LORD’S WILL---TO CONTINUE A COVENANT, THE WORDS OF
CONDITIONS, which are LAWS, COMMANDMENTS ARE TO BE KEPT!
31 But as for thee, stand
thou here by Me, and I will speak unto thee all the commandments, and the
statutes, and the judgments, which thou shalt teach them, that they may do them
in the land which I give them to possess it.
So Moses was instructed to TEACH ALL GOD’S COMMANDMENTS, STATUTES,
JUDGMENTS given in HOREB!!
32 Ye shall observe to do
therefore as the LORD your God hath commanded you: ye shall not turn aside to
the right hand or to the left.
NO TURNING TO ANY SIDE---BUT OBSERVE GOD’S COMMANDMENTS!
33 Ye shall walk in all the ways which the LORD
your God hath commanded you, that ye may live, and that it may be well with
you, and that ye may prolong your days in the land which ye shall possess.—when
ETERNAL COVENANT OF PEACE IS MADE, Eze. 37: 24-28, ISRAEL HIS CHOSEN ARE TO
KEEP ALL THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD FOREVER, without BREAKING A SINGLE JOT OR A
TITTLE!
Deut chapter 6--
Deut. 6: 1- Now these are
the commandments, the statutes, and the judgments, which the LORD your God
commanded to teach you, that ye might do them in the land whither ye go to
possess it:
2-That thou mightest fear
the LORD thy God, to keep all His statutes and His commandments, which I
command thee, thou, and thy son, and thy son’s son, all the days of thy life; and
that thy days may be prolonged.----these same words apply for
an ETERNAL COVENANT OF PEACE---so what was told at HOREB are applying today!
3 Hear therefore, O
Israel, and observe to do it; that it may be well with thee, and that ye may
increase mightily, as the LORD God of thy fathers hath promised thee, in the
land that floweth with milk and honey.
4 - Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is
one LORD:
5 And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all
thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.
6 And these words, which I command thee this
day, shall be in thine heart:
7 --And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy
children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine
house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when
thou risest up.
8 --And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand, and
they shall be as frontlets between thine eyes.
9 --And thou shalt write them upon the posts of thy house, and
on thy gates.
THEREFORE WHAT WAS TOLD AT HOREB ARE TO BE DONE TODAY TOO TO MAKE
THE ETERNAL COVENANT!
ONE GENERATION TEACHES THE NEXT GENERATION, THEY TEACH THEIR
CHILDREN----AND THUS COVENANT CONTINUES, LORD BEING PRAISED AND THANKED BY HIS
CHOSEN PEOPLE OF ISRAEL!
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.---SO JUST AS SAID IN HOREB, ETERNAL COVENANT too has to be made
with HIS JUDGMENTS, STATUTES, ISRAEL should walk in them.
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.---LORD’S
chosen leader as David would appear very soon! Jer. 30; 21.
26- Moreover I will make
a covenant of peace with them; it shall be an everlasting covenant with them:
and I will place them, and multiply them, and will set My sanctuary in the
midst of them for evermore.
27 -My tabernacle also
shall be with them: yea, I will be their God, and they shall be My people.
28 -And the heathen shall
know that I the LORD do sanctify Israel, when My sanctuary shall be in the
midst of them for evermore.
So
the heathen turned captives would return to God and ISRAEL would be SANCTIFIED
BEFORE GOD TO BE ACCEPTED, WHEN THEY KEEP Ezekiel temple ordinances.

JESUS
CHRIST had given the EVERLASTING CONSOLATION through LORD’S SACRIFICE, which is
the ONLY HOPE THROUGH GRACE--
2Th 2:16 -Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God, even our
Father, which hath loved us, and hath given us everlasting consolation and good
hope through grace,
The
hope is forgiveness through His sacrifice, to become newness of life, to serve
Him again with Righteousness unto Holiness, Rom. 6: 3-7, 19, 22.
Tit 3:7 -That being justified by His grace, we should be made
heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
When we get His 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, we should REMEMBER THE LAW OF Moses given in Horeb, as JESUS CHRIST
the messenger of the covenant said---
Mal 4:4 -Remember ye the law of Moses My
servant, which I commanded unto him
in Horeb for all ISRAEL, with the statutes and judgments.
THE SAME LAWS ARE FULFILLED WITH LOVE, Rom. 13: 8-10.
ALL
PRAISE AND THANKSGIVING BE TO JESUS CHRIST, THE REDEEMER AND SAVIOUR OF ISRAEL,
AMEN AND AMEN.
