EXAMINING SCRIPTURES WOULD MAKE US UNDERSTAND WHETHER THE PHYSICALLY DEAD OR SPIRITUALLY DEAD WOULD RISE TO LIVE GETTING EVERLASTING LIFE

EVERLASTING LIFE IS TO KNOW YOUR GOD, Jo 17: 3. WITH THAT KNOWLEDGE WE COULD LIVE AGAIN –read in this article…

Isa 26:19 -Thy dead men shall live, together with My dead body shall they arise. Awake and sing, ye that dwell in dust: for thy dew is as the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast out the dead.

Isa. 26: 19 is explained in this article…

EXAMINING SCRIPTURES—WE SEE THAT GOD IS ESTABLISHING HIS SANCTUARY WITH HOLY PEOPLE WHO ARE TO BE AS ALIVE. --Ps 115:17- The dead praise not the LORD, neither any that go down into silence. Ps 88:10 -Wilt thou shew wonders to the dead? Shall the dead arise and praise thee? Selah.

LORD requires PRAISE FROM THE UPRIGHT--Ps 33:1 -Rejoice in the LORD, O ye righteous: for praise is comely for the upright. Ps 119:7 -I will praise thee with uprightness of heart, when I shall have learned thy righteous judgments—we should learn His righteous judgments to do them and PRAISE HIM!

This article shows how the DEAD RISE TO PRAISE GOD!

The great falling away from WCG, and the work of man of sin who broke covenant, Eze.16: 59, 44: 7 had to be fulfilled according to God’s decreed plan, 2 The 2: 3. (we had shown those judgments against man of sin who said he is capital “G” God!  LORD afflicted His church leaders with famine, Amos 8: 11, then spiritually they die, the leaders were spiritually dead by spiritual sword too, Amos 9: 1, Eze.9: 6, sword of God being the word of God, Eph. 6: 17.

But we see they are PHYSICALLY living ---SO THEY ARE SPIRITUAL DEATHS IN CHRIST—Such dead in Christ shall rise first, 1Th 4:16. And they would be in the New Covenant being bride of Christ, Rev. 21: 1-3. Old covenant would vanish away, Heb 8:13.

Ro 6:2 -God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?

SINNERS ARE DEAD TO SIN, THEY WOULD RISE WITH THE DEAD BODY OF CHRIST, those things are explained in this article.

Ps. 89: 48-- What man is he that liveth, and shall not see death? shall he deliver his soul from the hand of the grave? Selah.

Here is an example of physical death--

Ac 13:36  For David, after he had served his own generation by the will of God, fell on sleep, and was laid unto his fathers, and saw corruption:

David saw corruption, but JESUS CHRIST did not, --

Ac 2:31 --He seeing this before spake of the resurrection of Christ, that His soul was not left in hell, neither His flesh did see corruption

Here is an example of spiritual death---

1Jo 3:14 -We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death.—accordingly---believers, who love brethren, change from being DEAD to LIFE! (We could be sure that dead in physical graves cannot pass from being dead UNTO LIFE, by LOVING BRETHREN-- He that loveth not his brother abideth in death!)—that is spiritual!

Now if we think clearly the above vs---THE SINNERS WHO DO NOT LOVE BRETHREN ARE BREAKING THE COMMANDMENT OF JESUS CHRIST, (Mt 22:39 -And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself).---THEY ABIDE IN DEATH ---

Such people sin against brethren and God of whole earth breaking His commandments!

If they LOVE BRETHREN AND PASSED FROM DEATH TO LIFE----THAT MEANS THEY KEEP COMMANDMENTS OF GOD! ---

But if they do not keep commandments of God, not honouring and not loving God,

SUCH PEOPLE CANNOT TEACH THEIR NEXT GENERATION TO LOVE BRETHREN!

Then they do not produce another generation to LOVE GOD AND KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS AS REQUIRED IN Neh 1: 5!

Therefore this spiritual death has to be abolished to make the ETERNAL COVENANT!

JESUS CHRIST IS TEACHING IN PARABLES!

Mt 10: 28-- And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear Him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.

Therefore we see that LORD is teaching spiritually dead people, TO BE RIGHTEOUS, ----TO LIVE BEFORE HIM, THEY SHOULD LEARN TO LOVE GOD AND BRETHREN –

1Co 1:30- But of Him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:----

Mt 22: 37 -Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.---38 -This is the first and great commandment.

39 -And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

40 -On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.

WHEN BELIEVERS KEEP COMMANDMENTS OF JESUS CHRIST AS WRITTEN ABOVE---BRETHREN WOULD LIVE BEFORE HIM---THEY PASS FROM DEATH TO LIFE! 1Jo 3:14 -We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren-- He that loveth not his brother abideth in death.

Jer. 17: 12--A glorious high throne from the beginning is the place of our sanctuary.

13 -O LORD, the hope of Israel, all that forsake thee shall be ashamed, and they that depart from Me shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the LORD, the fountain of living waters.--14- Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved: for thou art my praise.--15 --Behold, they say unto me, Where is the word of the LORD? let it come now.

THE WORD OF GOD HAS TO COME—they are to be healed for they had forsaken the LORD!---they are TO GET KNOWLEDGE OF JESUS CHRIST from word of God TO BE SAVED AND HEALED!  Deut. 8; 3 says Manna was given that He might tell us to keep every word of God, and HE SAID SO IN Mt. 4; 4, Lu 4: 4. –TO KEEP EVERY WORD, WE ARE TO LEARN ALL WORDS OF GOD!!!! That is a great work! But God gives His strength to do so!

If you fear Him, He would teach you all words of the covenant, even secrets, Ps 25:14,

Ps 111:5--He hath given meat unto them that fear Him: He will ever be mindful of His covenant

So we see LORD helps us to learn of Him IF WE FEAR HIM!

Since LORD is establishing Levi or the ministry as a Righteous and a Holy people to serve Him, Zec 14: 20, Mal 3: 1-5, they are the people whom LORD is purifying first!

Levi is son of ISRAEL, Ge 35:23, as Jacob prophesied for his sons for last days, Gen. 49; 1, Levi is cruel, Ge 49:5, IN LAST DAYS LORD PURGES Levi AS GOLD AND SILVER, Mal 3: 1-5, as JESUS CHRIST had come as sceptre of Judah in last days, Gen. 49: 1, 8-12, He had come to purify Levi, Mal 3: 1-5, as HE HAD CHOSEN Levi TO HIMSELF, Levi separated for work of ark of covenant, De 10:8---Levi hath no part nor inheritance with his brethren; the LORD is his inheritance, De 10: 9--priests the sons of Levi shall come near; for them the LORD thy God hath chosen to minister unto Him, De 21:5--Moses wrote this law, and delivered it unto the priests the sons of Levi, which bare the ark of the covenant of the LORD, and unto all the elders of Israel, De 31:9--My covenant might be with Levi, saith the LORD of hosts, Mal 2: 4.

If ministers does not have much knowledge of the covenant, it means they may not be fearing God to do what He says, Ps. 25: 14! The two families God knows, of ISRAEL and David are in captivity, they would be definitely brought back by God to make the New Covenant, Jer. 33: 24-26, Eze. 16: 60-63, after Malachi purification of Levi, Mal 3: 1-5. 

Jer. 17: 13 -O LORD, the hope of Israel, all that forsake thee shall be ashamed

WE COULD UNDERSTAND Jer. 17: 13 FROM WORDS OF David—

KING DAVID ADMONISHED HIS SON SOLOMON—

1Ch 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 for ever.

So when PCG broke covenant, Eze. 44: 7,  at Bamah, Eze. 20; 29, LORD PROFANED EVEN THE SANCTUARY, Eze. 24: 21, AND KILLED LEADERS SPIRITUALLY, Eze 9: 6, Amos 9; 1.

Although LORD died for the sins of the whole world, 1Jo 2:2, at this time LORD is purifying Levi, Mal 3: 1-5, Rev. 6: 17,  for His Sanctuary He pitched, Heb. 8: 1, 2, with His own sacrifice, 1 Jo 2: 2, so that old Jerusalem would become new, Rev. 21: 1-3.

(This article would show how Abraham’s sons {Jacob’s}, are benefitting LORD’S sacrifice first!).

2Ti 3:16--All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: Please UNDERSTAND ALL those words! ALL THOSE WORKS WOULD BE DONE THROUGH LORD’S SHORT WORK!

Levi who are getting purified during LORD’S SHORT WORK, Mal 3: 1-5, Rev. 6: 17, Rom. 9; 28, When He does His work for Zion to give salvation, Isa 62:11, Jer 51:10, CLOTHING PRIESTS WITH SALVATION, Ps 132:16, should understand that 2 Ti 3:16 is for them FIRST!

None of us knew EARLIER, all what LORD is teaching these days for purging ministry as gold and silver, Mal 3: 1-5. None of us knew how to be holy and perfect---which is only possible with the baptizm unto His death, Rom. 6, and after that by EATING EVERY WORD OF GOD, Lu 4: 4, ASKING JESUS CHRIST FOR STRENGTH TO GO ON!!, we could fall and get up, Pr 24:16. SO WE KNOW THAT LORD IS TEACHING!  He is performing Mal 3: 1-5 work, to bring out captives, Jer. 33: 24-26, with His own blood, Zec 9; 11, so we see from Jer. 33: 24-26 that they are MINISTRY, THE LEADERS OF GOD’S CHURCH! As His way is in a Sanctuary, Ps. 77: 13, He had pitched His Tabernacle with His own hands, Heb. 8: 1, 2, THEN HE NEEDS A MINISTRY and a congregation, they appear, Jer. 30: 18-21. A leader prophesied to lead captives, Hos 1; 11.

We should not be proud to be corrected by the word of God –it may happen by reading bible, or someone telling us scriptures when we err! LORD gives different people different measures or talents, which should be shared by all—Rom. 12.

Mt 23:11 –But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant.

(Even from worldly leaders we hear such words—our present PRESIDENT (Of Sri Lanka), at his Inaugural Speech said “he is the greatest servant”!).

So we should not be proud to learn from one another!

Even under tough times, teachers are to do their duty. Rich men, Rev. 3: 17 are to be admonished--Mt 19:24 -And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

NOW LORD IS TEACHING HOW TO ENTER KINGDOM OF GOD –Laodiceans are God’s own people! He would not forget them! they are admonished--

Rev. 3: 18- I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.

19 -As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.

Paul wrote—(Today gentiles hear JESUS CHRIST as He rules gentiles, and they also hear Paul, Rom. 15; 12, 15, therefore LORD’S BANNER is brought by gentiles, Isa. 11: 9-11). These MESSAGES ARE TO EDIFY ISRAEL---

Ro 15:2 -Let every one of us please his neighbour for his good to edification.

1Co 14:3 -But he that prophesieth speaketh unto men to edification, and exhortation, and comfort. (LORD sent prophets, Rev. 11: 10, their words would edify Levi in Malachi purification, Mal 3; 1-5, as LORD is the messenger of the covenant, Mal 3: 1, who sends His messages by gentiles, Isa. 11: 9-11). Paul wrote--

2Co 10:8 -For though I should boast somewhat more of our authority, which the Lord hath given us for edification, and not for your destruction, I should not be ashamed: (When we write God’s messages, people could think we are boasting---but LORD sends HIS MESSAGES, to edify them, to instruct them, to correct them---those who broke covenant, Eze. 44: 7, Eze. 16: 59, are to be corrected to make the New Covenant, Eze. 16: 60-63.

2Co 13:10 -Therefore I write these things being absent, lest being present I should use sharpness, according to the power which the Lord hath given me to edification, and not to destruction.

CORRECTION WORK IS NOT FOR DESTRUCTION BUT TO ESTABLISH!

AFTER CLEANSING LORD PLANTS--

Jer 31:28  And it shall come to pass, that like as I have watched over them, to pluck up, and to break down, and to throw down, and to destroy, and to afflict; so will I watch over them, to build, and to plant, saith the LORD.

LORD who is a marvellous counsellor, and possessor and creator of all things, SPEAKS IN PARABLES, COMPARISONS, hard to understand unless LORD reveals---

In Amos 3: 1-13 we see what happens to children of ISRAEL, (This ISRAEL is church, NOT ALL ISRAEL, Rom. 9: 4, 6). LORD reveals the prophets, Amos 3; 7, and these days the prophets are gentiles, Zec 8: 9, Rev. 11: 10. Prophet in Eze.2: 5, 6 is no more prophet, Ps. 74: 9, his crown removed, he is a reproach to his neighbours, Ps. 89: 39--41. .

LOOK AT A FEW VV. OF Amos 3—

Amos 3: 1-Hear this word that the LORD hath spoken against you, O children of Israel, against the whole family which I brought up from the land of Egypt, saying,--2  You only have I known of all the families of the earth: therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities. (A Father punishes His children, not others’ children).

3 -Can two walk together, except they be agreed?—ISRAEL had not agreed with the words of the covenant of God, to Love Him and to obey His commandments, ---Neh 1: 5 is not kept!

4 -Will a lion roar in the forest, when he hath no prey? will a young lion cry out of his den, if he have taken nothing? The answer is in vs. 8-----8 --The lion hath roared, who will not fear? the Lord GOD hath spoken, who can but prophesy?—LORD AS A LION ROARS WHEN HIS COVENANT IS BROKEN BY HIS OWN ISRAEL! (Vs. 2--therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities). The spiritual FOREST is the PORCH of judgment, as Solomon built, 1 Ki 7: 1—7---when “FOREST” had come down, because the mighty are spoiled, Zec 11:2.

LORD AS A LION HAD ROARED WHEN HIS JUDGMENT PLACE IS SPOILT BY HIS PRESENT DAY SERVANTS!

Amos 3: 5 -Can a bird fall in a snare upon the earth, where no gin is for him? shall one take up a snare from the earth, and have taken nothing at all?---LORD leads leaders as birds, and spreads His net on them, Hos 7: 12.

6 --Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD hath not done it?—LORD HAD SPOKEN THE WORDS IN THE TRUMPET, VS. 8—LORD had caused evil in the city!- Isa 45:-7- I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.

Pr 16:4- The LORD hath made all things for Himself: yea, even the wicked for the day of evil.—so we should see that we are all made for His purpose, NONE OF US WOULD BE ABLE TO FIGHT GOD ALMIGHTY, BUT WE SHOULD WALK HUMBLY! –sinners are made to show their repentance when God treads them! Ps. 51, --they see Him pierced---Zec 12:10, --WHEN THEY SEE HIM PIERCED, THEY SHOULD REPENT—AND SHOULD UNDERSTAND THE IMMENSE VALUE OF HIS BLOOD OF FORGIVENESS AND OF REDEMPTION, Eph. 1: 7

-Joh 19:37 -And again another scripture saith, They shall look on Him whom they pierced-- Re 1:7- Behold, He cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see Him, and they also which pierced Him:--(He came in clouds, gentiles times, Eze. 30; 3---and they have to see Him pierced to get baptized to His death, Rom. 6).

BUT FIRST JUDGMENT OF UNGODLY MEN AND THEN FIRE WOULD BURN WICKEDNESS, Isa. 9: 18

2Pe 3:7 -But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.

Those leaders who were judged as ungodly, Rev. 20: 12-14, in heavens and earth have to be burnt of their evilness in lake of fire, Rev. 20; 12-14. (The stars of heaven {ISRAEL, Ex 32:13- Abraham, Isaac, and Israel as stars of heaven} fell to the earth, Rev. 6: 13), 1st born of poor, Isa. 14: 30, cleansed through LORD’S BLOOD, Eph. 2: 13, raised in heavenly places, Eph. 2: 5, 6, just as LORD raised, Eph. 1: 20, and such resurrected are equal to angels, Lu 20: 36 ---they were of heavens, Php 3: 20, Eph. 2: 5, 6, (They were in kingdom of HEAVEN, WHEN LORD’S THRONE IS AS DAYS OF HEAVEN, Ps. 89: 29)- SOME OF THEM DEPARTED FROM FAITH, 1 Tim 4: 1-5, -they are also judged as “Small” in Rev. 20: 12-14. WHEN GREAT AND SMALL GET RID OF THEIR EVILNESS FROM THE FIRES OF Rev. 20: 12-14, Isa. 9: 18, a new heavens and a new earth would be seen JUST as NAME OF ISRAEL REMAINS, they then worship God as He wills, Isa. 66: 22, 23. ANY WHO DOES NOT REPENT WOULD BE IN Isa. 66: 24!!

(ISRAEL leader as Assyrian, was joined by gentiles as Hagar, to cut off the name of ISRAEL, Ps. 83: 4-8, but GOD WOULD NOT ALLOW SUCH THINGS AMIDST ISRAEL!

LORD is the saviour of ISRAEL! So LORD’S judgments took place—ISRAEL were trodden down, by God, served by gentiles, La. 1: 15. AND ISRAEL would be saved, gentiles now serving would be as ISRAEL, Eze. 47; 22.

Ps. 121: 7 -The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil: He shall preserve thy soul.

8 -The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.

GENTILE WORK SERVED GOD TO TREAD THE WICKED--

Mal 4:3 -And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do this, saith the LORD of hosts. Gentile work created for that purpose, Isa 37:26, Isa 43:7, 10 (Witnesses), treading work, Rev. 11: 1-2, serving LORD to tread, La. 1; 15.

NOW WE SHOULD UNDERSTAND GOD’S PLAN TO ERADICATE EVILNESS---HE CREATED EVIL PEOPLE, Pr 16: 4,  and EVILNESS IN THEM by giving over to Satan, Zec 3, 2 The 2: 8-11---AND GOD REQUIRES HIS SERVANTS WHO WERE MADE RIGHTEOUS BY HIM, Isa. 54: 17, TO TREAD THE WICKED!---and God says the deceitful servants are cursed---and ALSO--those true servants who would NOT take the blood out from them with the SWORD ARE ALSO CURSED, Jer. 10: 48.

THEREFORE, THE TRUE SERVANTS ARE TO SHOW THEIR SINS TO ALL SO THAT EVERYBODY WOULD BE CORRECTED!

We should understand---

·         This world where we live belongs to God!

·         HE IS ALMIGHTY, ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE WITH HIM, Lu 1:37

·         He does what He purposes, Rev. 4: 11

·         His will is all flesh worshipping Him on Sabbaths and beginnings of new months, Isa. 66: 23, Nu 28: 9—14. HE COULD GET IT DONE AS ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE WITH HIM!

·         His present day servants of ISRAEL had broken covenant!

·         They should be corrected, if God killed them like in history, the same errors could recur!

·         His counsel is to SHAME THEM, so that IT WOULD BE A LESSON FOR COMING GENERATIONS!

·         Therefore, their SINS ARE SHOWN TO EVERYBODY! Lu 12:3--Therefore whatsoever ye have spoken in darkness shall be heard in the light; and that which ye have spoken in the ear in closets shall be proclaimed upon the housetops. AS AN EXAMPLE, COVENANT BREAKING SIN WAS PLANNED IN PLACES OF PCG---BUT IT IS PROCLAIMED FOR ALL TO HEAR! Gentiles who fell from faith sinned after cleansing by His blood, Eph. 2: 13---and their sins were proclaimed upon housetops!

·         Then people would BE SHAMED and LEARN TO DO HIS COMMANDMENTS THAT WOULD BRING JOY AND PEACE!

·         SO THE LORD CREATED EVIL AND EVIL DOERS, ----TO SHOW ERRORS AND ----THEN---ESTABLISH HIS EVERLASTING COVENANT OF PEACE.

LORD HELPS ISRAEL--

Isa 44:2 -Thus saith the LORD that made thee, and formed thee from the womb, which will help thee; Fear not, O Jacob, My servant; and thou, Jesurun, whom I have chosen.

Isa 44:21- Remember these, O Jacob and Israel; for thou art My servant: I have formed thee; thou art My servant: O Israel, thou shalt not be forgotten of me.

Isa 44:24 -Thus saith the LORD, thy redeemer, and He that formed thee from the womb, I am the LORD that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by Myself;

COULD WE SEE HIS ALMIGHTY POWERS!!!---

We could only enjoy HIS CREATIONS!---do not forget---HE REDEEMS ISRAEL!!!

ISRAEL leaders should learn to HONOUR THEIR GOD, and THINK THAT THEY ARE MEN WHO DIE! They SHOULD NOT EXALT themselves as “G” Gods as they did!

Amos 3: 6 explained above—

Amos 3: 7 -Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but He revealeth His secret unto His servants the prophets.---we see He had done what He says! His words fulfill! Rev. 11; 10 prophets were made to know to tread evil doers! He made known the secrets of the covenant, Ps 25:14, to them! That is why they write of the New Covenant!

Amos 3: 10 -For they know not to do right, saith the LORD, who store up violence and robbery in their palaces.

11 -Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; An adversary there shall be even round about the land; and he shall bring down thy strength from thee, and thy palaces shall be spoiled.

12  Thus saith the LORD; As the shepherd taketh out of the mouth of the lion two legs, or a piece of an ear; so shall the children of Israel be taken out that dwell in Samaria in the corner of a bed, and in Damascus in a couch. ALL THOSE VV. show the disobedience of God’s people of ISRAEL! They are given over to Satan, the adversary,

Ps 109:6 -Set thou a wicked man over him: and let Satan stand at his right hand.(Psalm 109 thus prophesied, Lu 24: 44). And we see---

Zec 3:1 -And he shewed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the LORD, and Satan standing at his right hand to resist him.—PCG leader was as High Priest Joshua, and Satan was standing at his right hand, leader did not oppose Satan, but yielded to him to break covenant, Eze. 44; 7!  

Amos 3: 13 -Hear ye, and testify in the house of Jacob, saith the Lord GOD, the God of hosts,(House of Jacob serves in House of God). we are to testify among them!

14 -That in the day that I shall visit the transgressions of Israel upon him I will also visit the altars of Bethel: and the horns of the altar shall be cut off, and fall to the ground.—ALTARS OF BETHEL is judgment places of God as done in history, (Ge 31:13  I am the God of Bethel,-- 1Sa 7:16  And he went from year to year in circuit to Bethel, and Gilgal, and Mizpeh, and judged Israel in all those places).---the horns of altar cut off—it happened in Amos 9: 1!

15 -And I will smite the winter house with the summer house; and the houses of ivory shall perish, and the great houses shall have an end, saith the LORD.

GREAT HOUSES HAD TO HAVE AN END!

The great house WCG fell—falling away written in 2 The 2:3 fulfilled. More about it is written in this article.

SINCE THIS DAY IS THE CORRECION OF LEADERS, Mal 3: 1-5, LORD SAYS OF THEIR SPIRITUAL DEATHS--

Isa 29:10  For the LORD hath poured out upon you the spirit of deep sleep, and hath closed your eyes: the prophets and your rulers, the seers hath He covered.

Jer 51:39 -In their heat I will make their feasts, and I will make them drunken, that they may rejoice, and sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake, saith the LORD.

Jer 51:57  And I will make drunk her princes, and her wise men, her captains, and her rulers, and her mighty men: and they shall sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake, saith the King, whose name is the LORD of hosts.

BUT LORD SAVES ISRAEL, Isa 43:3 -For I am the LORD thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour:

THE FOLLOWING SCRIPTURE WOULD MAKE US UNDERSTAND MANY THINGS ABOUT DEAD---HOW SPIRITUAL DEAD WOULD RISE--

Isa 26:19 -Thy dead men shall live, together with My dead body shall they arise. Awake and sing, ye that dwell in dust: for thy dew is as the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast out the dead.

JESUS CHRIST died and resurrected and lives forever as scriptures of this article shows.

Job 19:25- For I know that My redeemer liveth, and that He shall stand at the latter day upon the earth:--NOTICE THAT HE WOULD STAND AT THE LATTER DAY UPON THE EARTH!

Jacob prophesied of this latter day when JESUS CHRIST comes as sceptre of Judah, Gen. 49: 1, 8-12---BALAAM prophesied of this day—Nu 24: 16-19—see vs. 17-- 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, and shall smite the corners of Moab, and destroy all the children of tumult. (That is same as prophesy of Jacob).

People knew that GOD was sending CHRIST the SAVIOUR-- Joh 4:42-- and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the world.

Work of Christ the SAVIOUR could be seen as wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption: 1Co 1:30 –(HIS WISDOM, Righteousness ALSO SHOULD BE SOUGHT along with other benefits)-- redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins, Col 1:14 -- redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works-- Tit 2:14 -- by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us, Heb 9:12, --as the Lamb, He opened the seals of Revelations to perform them, Rev. 5: 9.   

HE SAVES MEN FROM BEING OLD MAN— Ro 6:6  Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with Him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.---BELIEVERS ARE SAVED FROM BEING “OLD MAN”!

OLD MEN BECOME NEW---IF THEY ARE IN CHRIST--

2 Co 5: 14 -For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead:

15- And that He died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto Him which died for them, and rose again.

16- Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more.

17-Therefore if any man be in Christ, He is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

19 -To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto Himself,

not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.

20 -Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God.

THROUGH FAITH IN BAPTIZM OF JESUS CHRIST WE BECOME SONS OF GOD WHO WOULD BE ENTILTLED TO PROMISE OF Abraham—Gal 3: 25—29—

Gal 3: 27 -For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.

28 -There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.

29 -And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.

PUTTING OFF OLD MAN—

Ro 6:6 -Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with Him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.—THAT HAPPENS THROUGH BAPTIZM UNTO HIS DEATH, WRITTEN IN Rom. 6: 3-7! After baptizm of Rom. 6—we cannot serve sin, vs. 6.

Eph 4:22- That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts;---Col 3:9 -Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds;--OLD MAN HAD CORRUPT WAYS—DECEITFUL LUSTS---LYING LIPS! –BUT NEW MAN SHOULD PUT AWAY SUCH BAD DEEDS!

1Pe 4:3  For the time past of our life may suffice us to have wrought the will of the Gentiles, when we walked in lasciviousness, lusts, excess of wine, revellings, banquetings, and abominable idolatries:---THESE ARE WAYS OF HEATHEN! ---THAT IS WHY LORD CONSIDERS ISRAEL AS HEATHEN, Eze.36; 6, 17.

1Jo 3:24 -And he that keepeth His commandments dwelleth in Him, and He in him. And hereby we know that He abideth in us, by the Spirit which He hath given us. (Christ in you, the hope of glory, Col 1:27, COULD FULFILL THEN IF WE KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS!).

1Jo 3:2 -Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when He shall appear, we shall be like Him; for we shall see Him as He is.

Ro 8:28 -And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to His purpose.

2Co 5:1- For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. UNDERSTAND THIS GREAT MYSTERY---

Our earthly house is one’s self, (Ye are the temple, 1Co 6:19  What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?)—main part to be cleansed is heart—circumcision of hearts---which is done by baptizm of JESUS CHRIST, Col 2: 11-13, Rom. 6---THEN our earthly house of this tabernacle HAS TO BE dissolved--- Ro 8:7  Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be!)---THEREFORE—OLD MAN SHOULD BE DISSOLVED!—A NEW MAN SHOULD COME UP---

Ro 6:6 -Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with Him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.—THAT HAPPENS THROUGH BAPTIZM UNTO HIS DEATH, WRITTEN IN Rom. 6: 3-7! After baptizm of Rom. 6—we cannot serve sin, vs. 6. THEREFORE---2Co 5:1- if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens—THEN WE SHOULD ALLOW LORD TO DISSOLVE our body of sin, AND CREATE A NEW Tabernacle in us BY HIS HANDS! ---it is done through 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.  

MINISTRY THEN COULD SERVE HIM IN NEWNESS OF LIFE!---

THEN Malachi purification is done---they would be gold and silver! Mal 3: 1-5.

The whole bible teaches for this day when LORD cleanses by His baptizm, Rom. 6.  

Isa 26:19 -Thy dead men shall live, together with My dead body shall they arise. Awake and sing, ye that dwell in dust: for thy dew is as the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast out the dead.----WILL JESUS CHRIST DIE AGAIN AND AGAIN???

Ro 6:9 -Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him.

WE KNOW THAT JESUS CHRIST LIVED, DIED AND ROSE---that is once for all---He would not die again---therefore---physically dead would have no chance----Isa. 26: 19 is a spiritual matter!

JESUS CHRIST would not die again, and that is proof of all physical dead not rising from their graves! (The physical dead cannot live as He would die no more!). LORD GIVE DEW OF HERBS---Isa.26: 19-- for thy dew is as the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast out the dead.

Further examining scriptures prove that JESUS CHRIST says of His baptizm through which His believers would be able to BE BORN AGAIN INTO KINGDOM OF GOD, Jo 3: 3. That is why JESUS CHRIST taught of gospel of kingdom of God, Mt 4:23.

THE MAIN FACTS WE COULD UNDERSTAND FROM Isa. 26: 19 are AS FOLLOWS (Those facts are proved with word of God in this article according to interpretations from the bible, 2 Pe 1: 19, 20, LORD speaks in parables, Mt 13:34, spiritual things should be compared with spiritual, as HOLY SPIRIT would teach, 1 Co 2: 13, Holy Spirit IS LIFE GIVING WORDS OF GOD, Jo 6: 63)—Holy Spirit, Jo 6: 63 teaches—Ne 9:20 Lu 12:12 Joh 14:26 1Co 2:13 1Jo 2:27---

Isa 26:19 -Thy dead men shall live, together with My dead body shall they arise. Awake and sing, ye that dwell in dust: for thy dew is as the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast out the dead.

IN Isa. 26: 19—

·         JESUS CHRIST IS EVERLIVING AFTER HE ROSE FROM DEAD, HE WOULD DIE NO MORE. Rom. 6; 9

·         HE IS NOT GOING TO DIE PHYSICALLY AGAIN! ---that means physically dead cannot live again.

·         WHEN JESUS CHRIST DIED PHYSICALLY, SOME DEAD PEOPLE ROSE as you would see in scriptures (Shown below).

·         JUST AS physical DEW OF HERBS ARE USEFUL FOR PLANTS TO COME UP----spiritual dew of herbs causes spiritually dead to come out—shown below

·         According to Isa. 26: 19-- THOSE IN DUST ARE TO AWAKE AND SING WHEN DEW OF HERBS ARE GIVEN THEM! Then one has to understand “what this dew of herbs” means!

·         Then UNDERSTAND –Deut. 32: 2—

De 32:2 -My doctrine shall drop as the rain, My speech shall distil as the dew, as the small rain upon the tender herb, and as the showers upon the grass:

SO DEAD PEOPLE GET HIS DOCTRINE AS DEW TO RISE FROM DEAD!!

LORD HAD GIVEN A SPECIAL WAY FOR RISING THROUGH HIS DEATH---SEEN IN Rom. 6, BY BAPTIZM UNTO HIS DEATH! This is gospel of the CROSS as written in this article.

Read articles on Cross and baptizm in --http://www.restoringcaptivity.com

In that way people who erred to serve Him could be raised as new men, so that they are ABLE to serve Him in Righteousness unto HOLINESS, Rom. 6: 19, 22. THAT is part of the blessing from HIS DOCTRINE OF HIS CROSS! He pours rain as He had come in rain, Hos 6; 3, and cloudy day for rain is gentiles’ times, Eze. 30; 3, therefore rain water comes as rivers from coastlands; Isa. 42: 15, from ships of Tarshish, Isa. 60: 9, messages from ships, Eze. 30: 3, 9. During day of the LORD, Rev. 6: 17. ---He had come to PURIFY MINISTRY IN Malachi Purification, Mal 3; 1-5. Tarshish served king Solomon to bring things for temple, 2Ch 9:21, similarly  now too LORD had taken ships of Tarshish to serve Him, Isa. 60: 9.

THROUGH THE DOCTRINE OF HIS CROSS, THE DEAD COULD RISE AS HERBS---THE SHOWERS UPON GRASS—EVIL DOERS ARE CUT OFF LIKE GRASS, AND WITHER LIKE GREEN HERBS, Ps 37:2, SO IT IS EVIL DOERS IN GOD’S CHURCH THAT DIE LIKE GRASS AND WITHER LIKE HERBS, AND THEY ARE AS DEAD WHO WOULD RISE WITH LORD’S DEAD BODY in Isa. 26: 19! ----Ps 72:6 -He shall come down like rain upon the mown grass: as showers that water the earth.---WHEN A HANDFUL OF CORN ON TOP OF MOUNTAIN PRODUCE FRUIT---THOSE IN CITY SHALL FLOURISH LIKE grass of the earth, Ps 72:16,

THIS IS NOTHING BUT MALACHI PURIFICATION, Mal 3: 1-5!

Isa 26:19 -Thy dead men shall live, together with My dead body shall they arise. Awake and sing, ye that dwell in dust: for thy dew is as the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast out the dead.

Ps. 37: 2-- 2  For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb.

3  Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.-- 4  Delight thyself also in the LORD; and He shall give thee the desires of thine heart.---LORD GIVES FOOD—TRUST HIM AND DELIGHT IN HIM!

5  Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in Him; and He shall bring it to pass.--6  And He shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday.

De 32:2 -My doctrine shall drop as the rain, My speech shall distil as the dew--

So when leaders are in captivity, Eze. 12: 13-15, they are as DEAD GRASS, WITHERED HERBS---THEN JESUS CHRIST WOULD FEED THEM WITH HIS TRUTHS---you are to TRUST HIM AND DO GOOD---then HE WOULD BRING IT TO PASS----HE GIVES HIS Righteousness unto Holiness through 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.   ---THEREFORE---PEOPLE WHO HAD DONE EVIL IN GOD’S CITY ARE TO TRUST IN HIS BAPTIZM TO SERVE HIM AGAIN!

(The gentiles God formed for His work, from Tarshish and Sheba, work and give presents to the LORD, Ps. 72: 10, 15---SO THEIR WORK WOULD FLOURISH LIKE GRASS COMING UP IN THE CITY OF GOD! PRAISE TO GOD OF WHOLE EARTH AS HE ESTABLSIHES HIS BRIDE, New Jerusalem, Isa. 54: 5, Isa. 62: 4, 5—Rev. 21: 1-3, Eze.48: 35.

Holy Spirit, Jo 6: 63 teaches— Holy Spirit INSTRUCTS, Ne 9:20 –Comforter the HOLY SPIRIT teaches, --Joh 14:26, teaches what to say, Lu 12:12  –comparing spiritual with spiritual—1 Co 2:13—the ANOINTING TEACHES, 1Jo 2:27 (That means those who were anointed would be taught of  His doctrine, ----in last days LORD anointed leaders, Zec 4: 14, they are Rev. 11: 1-4, 10, WE ARE TO UNDERSTAND GOD’S WORK HE DOES THROUGH HUMANS---HE MAKES THEM TO SERVE HIM ---

WITH MY DEAD BODY ---

Isa 26:19 -Thy dead men shall live, together with My dead body shall they arise.

·         JESUS CHRIST died once---but He would not die again ---

Ro 6:9- Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over Him.

OUTWARD MAN PERISH--

2Co 4:16 -For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.—OUTWARD MAN PERISH! Inward man renewed---INWARD MAN gets knowledge of Eternal life, which is to know JESUS CHRIST, Jo 17: 3, they GET NEWNESS OF LIFE WHEN THEY GO THROUGH LORD’S BAPTIZM UNTO HIS DEATH, Rom. 6. THEN WE BECOME NEW---AND renewed day by day!

17 -For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory; NOW PEOPLE OF GOD ARE UNDER AFFLICTION (A light one!)---BUT WHEN THEY GET KNOWLEDGE OF ETERNAL LIFE---THEY WOULD KNOW THE GLORY OF IT—IT IS THAT THE COVENANT WOULD NEVER BE BROKEN BY GOD’S PEOPLE---ISRAEL WOULD NEVER PERISH BEFORE HIM, He would never allow ISRAEL to be ashamed perpetually, Joel 2: 27.  When ISRAEL LEADERS IN Malachi purification gets baptizm of Rom. 6, they would form the 1^st seed of ISRAEL through His sacrifice, Isa. 53: 10, gentiles are 1^st born of poor, Isa. 14: 30.

2 Co 4: 18 -While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.

WE SEE OUR SELVES---THAT IS TEMPORAL!

WE DO NOT SEE THE GENERATIONS THAT ARE TO COME TO WORSHIP GOD IN THE ETERNAL COVENANT! Generations would come, Ps. 78: 5-7---THAT WOULD BE ETERNAL, never would ISRAEL break the covenant again AFTER THE SHORT WORK OF JESUS CHRIST, Rom. 9: 28. All fathers looked forward to see these things, Heb. 11 ---

Isa 26:19 -Thy dead men shall live, together with My dead body shall they arise.

IF Isa. 26: 19 is a prophecy for PHYSICAL----ONLY THOSE MEN WHO ROSE WHEN JESUS CHRIST DIED AND RESURRCTED WOULD LIVE---SOME MEN AROSE AFTER THE RESURRECTION OF JESUS CHRIST, MT 27: 53!

Mt 27: 50- Jesus, when He had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost.

51 -And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent;

52-And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose,--53 -And came out of the graves after His resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.

Then examine—THOSE SAINTS WHO AROSE, WHO HAD BEEN DEAD WERE AS SLEEPING--- (Many a time JESUS CHRIST referred the physically dead as sleeping, Joh 11:11--13, )---

IF YOU DIE SPIRITUAL DEATH---YOU WOULD NOT PRODUCE ANOTHER GENERATION TO WORSHIP GOD IN THE ETERNAL COVENANT!

IF YOU DIE PHYSICAL DEATH---IT IS AS SLEEPING---we die physically, and are asleep, David saw corruption after he served his own generaion, Ac 13:36 ---but although we die or sleep, OUR GENERATIONS WOULD LIVE BEFORE GOD TO BE PART OF THE COVENANT WITH GOD ---then we had made a seed to serve God of whole earth---THAT IS WHAT IS EXPECTED FROM THE LEADERS OF GOD’S CHURCH!

A MINISTRY AND A TYPE OF David HAS TO BE PRODUCED BY LEADERS BEFORE THEY DIE PHYSICALLY!

The MORE SERIOUS DEATH IS SPIRITUAL DEATH, as covenant could be broken!

We know that --Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over Him, Rom. 6: 9.

BUT IF THOSE WHO ROSE WITH HIM  AS PHYSICAL PEOPLE, Mt 27: 51—53, LIVED AND WERE SEEN BY PEOPLE, ----where are they now if they live forever????

SO WE ARE TO UNDERSTAND THAT ONLY JESUS CHRIST LIVES FOREVER! HE IS GOD ALMIGHTY, WHO HAD POWER TO TAKE HIS LIFE BACK, Jo 10: 18.

Those people said in Mt 27; 51-53 PROVED THAT GOD HAS POWER TO DO MIRACLES, WITH HIM ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE---

Rom. 6: 9-- Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over Him, Rom. 6: 9.

ONLY SUCH A GOD COULD GRANT US EVERLASTING LIFE (Knowledge of Him, Jo 17: 3) AND NEWNESS OF LIFE, Rom. 6: 3-7, THROUH HIS DEATH AND RESURRECTION!

Rom. 6: 9 IS A REFERENCE TO BAPTIZM UNTO HIS DEATH WHICH GIVES NEWNESS OF LIFE TO BE BORN AGAIN FOR KINGDOM OF GOD, Jo 3: 3. THAT IS A SPIRITUAL LIVING TO GET Righteousness unto Holiness to SERVE HIM, Rom. 6: 19-22, and ONCE SAVED FROM SIN, THEY ARE NOT TO SERVE SIN AGAIN, Rom. 6: 6.

Ro 14:9 -For to this end Christ both died, and rose, and revived, that He might be Lord both of the dead and living.

SO SINNERS AS DEAD TO SIN HAVE JESUS CHRIST AS THEIR LORD!

We find LORD’S servants names such as Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, David, Moses spoken in word of God many a time, their names are living! Mt 22:32-- I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.

SO JUST AS HE IS LORD OF LIVING, HE ALONE COULD RAISE DEAD, SO HE IS LORD OF THEM TOO, Rom. 14: 9, and He revives dead, makes them live by baptizm unto His death, they would then be BORN AGAIN INTO KINGDOM OF GOD, Jo 3: 3.

1Co 15:12 -Now if Christ be preached that He rose from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead?

Sadducees, say that there is no resurrection, Mt 22: 23—so we could learn from Mt 22 written below-

We ought to learn from the question of Sadducees which was explained by JESUS CHRIST –Mt 22:23--33

Mt 22: 23-- The same day came to him the Sadducees, which say that there is no resurrection, and asked him,

24- Saying, Master, Moses said, If a man die, having no children, his brother shall marry his wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.

25 -Now there were with us seven brethren: and the first, when he had married a wife, deceased, and, having no issue, left his wife unto his brother:

26 -Likewise the second also, and the third, unto the seventh.

27- And last of all the woman died also.

We see that they had not produced a next generation.

Mt 22:28 -Therefore in the resurrection whose wife shall she be of the seven? for they all had her.--29 -Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God.--30- For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.

In the resurrection, or raising as new men through the 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 ARE TO SERVE HIM AS MARRIED TO HIM TO PRODUCE FRUIT UNTO GOD, Rom. 7: 4. 

That is why LORD said—Mt 22: 30- For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.

This happened to gentiles who were cleansed through His blood, Eph. 2; 11-13,—and they are as 1st born of poor, Isa. 14: 30, cleansed through LORD’S BLOOD, Eph. 2: 13, raised in heavenly places, Eph. 2: 5, 6, just as LORD raised, Eph. 1: 20, and such resurrected are equal to angels, Lu 20: 36 ---they were to produce fruit unto God, Rom. 7; 4, but some departed from faith, 1 Tim 4: 1-5, so they erred as Rom. 7: 3. That means anyone could fall if they allow little leaven to enter into them, Ga 5:9. WORD OF GOD SHOULD BE THOROUGHLY UNDERSTOOD TO DO THEM, Jas 1; 22, Lu 4: 4.  

THE GREATEST THING WE COULD DO IS TO LIVE BY EVERY WORD OF GOD –THEN WE WOULD NOT FALL INTO TROUBLE!

Just as Deut. 8; 3 said that Manna was given to show that He might teach us to LIVE BY EVERY WORD OF GOD, JESUS CHRIST taught so as written in Lu 4; 4, Mt 4: 4---we are NOT TO LIVE BY BREAD ALONE---BUT BY EVERY WORD OF GOD!

Mt 22: 29 -Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God.--

YES—JUST AS VS. 29 SAYS--- Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God.—HERE IS A PROBLEM!!—NOT KNOWING SCRIPTURES!----just as JESUS CHRIST said ---IF WE HAD LEARNED EVERY WORD, WE WOULD KNOW THE POWER OF GOD and WE WOULD NOT ERR!!

In WCG or PCG we had not received baptizm unto His death, although we knew those scriptures, Rom. 6. Had we known the power of JESUS CHRIST and HIS CROSS, we would have NOT ERRED!

H.W.Armstrong WAS AGAINST THE CROSS! He said that is a method to terminate lives!

But Paul taught nothing but JESUS CHRIST and HIM CRUCIFIED, 1 Co 2: 2.

He taught the gospel of CROSS, 1Co 1:17- For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect.-- 18  For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.

JESUS CHRIST DID SHOW THE POWER OF GOD THROUGH GOSPEL OF CROSS! LEADERS OR PRINCIPALITIES OF CHURCH DID NOT KNOW THE POWER OF HIS CROSS!

Mt 22: 29 -Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God.--

GOD CONSIDERS Abraham, Isaac, Jacob AS LIVING, AND REQUIRES THE DEAD LEADERS TOO TO RESURRECT FROM DEAD TO BE LIVING TO BE SONS OF Abraham--

Mt 22: 31 -But as touching the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read that which was spoken unto you by God, saying,

32 -I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.—Abraham’s generations live according to the promise, Gen. 17: 7.

33 -And when the multitude heard this, they were astonished at His doctrine.

Vs. 34 – says-- Pharisees heard that He had put the Sadducees to silence,

SO LORD PROVED THAT GOD’S PEOPLE OUGHT TO BE LIVING AS Abraham, to be in the covenant, Gen. 17; 7! In the covenant of the GREAT GOD, WE ARE TO LOVE HIM AND KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS, Neh 1: 5. If we do not keep commandments we are as dead as shown in this article!

Jo 6: 54—58—WE ARE TO EAT EVERY WORD OF GOD--

Jo 6: 54-- Whoso eateth My flesh, and drinketh My blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.--55  For My flesh is meat indeed, and My blood is drink indeed.

56 -He that eateth My flesh, and drinketh My blood, dwelleth in Me, and I in him.

57 -As the living Father hath sent Me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth Me, even he shall live by Me.

58 -This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread shall live forever.

WHAT IS HIS BREAD THAT WE SHOULD EAT?

Deut. 8: 3-- he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with manna, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know; that He might make thee know that man doth not live by bread only, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the LORD doth man live.----HE MADE IT KNOWN IN LU 4: 4, MT 4; 4---

Lu 4: 4- And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.

Mt 4; 4-- But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.

TO EAT EVERY WORD OF GOD, WE ARE TO KNOW THOSE WORDS!

HEAR JESUS CHRIST TO LIVE—

WHEN YOU HEAR AND BELIEVE HIM AND HIS WORDS THAT GIVES NEWNESS OF LIFE, Rom. 6, YOU WOULD LIVE--

Jo 5: 21-- For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth them; even so the Son quickeneth whom He will.—(Father and Son is the One God, Isa. 9: 6, Almighty, Rev. 1: 8, He had power to lay life and take it back, Jo 10: 18). He quickens through His Spirit, Jo 6; 63, Spirit is words of life, Jo 6: 63. Therefore—HEAR HIS WORDS--

24- Verily, verily, I say unto you, he that heareth My word, and believeth on Him that sent Me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.

25 -Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live.

THEY THAT HEAR WORDS OF Rom. 6 TO DO BE BAPTIZED UNTO HIS DEATH WOULD LIVE AGAIN---THEY WHO WERE DEAD TO SIN WOULD LIVE AGAIN—be born again---so that they enter kingdom of God, Jo 3: 3.

GOD OF WHOLE EARTH, Isa. 54; 5, BECAME AS A SON OF MAN AND KNOWS HOW MAN DOES. SO HE IS ABLE TO JUDGE MEN---

Jo 5: 26--For as the Father hath life in Himself; so hath He given to the Son to have life in Himself;--27 -And hath given Him authority to execute judgment also, because He is the Son of man.--28 -Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear His voice,--29 -And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.

WHEN MEN (Leaders, as they are responsible for what they are given), ARE JUDGED, THEY HAD DONE GOOD OR EVIL (Proving from their works, writings)---ACCORDINGLY THEY ENTER LIFE OR CONDEMNATION, Jo 5: 29, the condemned are in lake of fire, Rev. 20; 12-14. Their wickedness is to be burnt, Isa. 9: 18, and they who hear JESUS CHRIST would be saved, ----All these things happen chiefly to children of Abraham, Heb. 2: 16, --- shown below--

Heb. 2: 14--Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, He also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death He might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil;

15 -And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.(Bondage to sin).

Heb. 2: 16 -For verily He took not on Him the nature of angels; but He took on Him the seed of Abraham. –(Jo 17: 6—to the called out, Jo 6: 44, 45, Heb. 9: 15, Gal 3: 14, Gal 3: 29)-HE TOOK ON HIM THE SEED OF Abraham, Heb. 2: 16, as HE IS MAKING A SEED FOR Abraham, Gal 3: 16, 29, THEREFORE---IN Isa. 53: 10, WE SEE THAT HE SEES A SEED FOR Abraham THROUGH HIS SACRIFICE.

Therefore we see that ISRAEL, the descendants of Abraham are forgiven through His sacrifice and given NEWNESS OF LIFE through His baptizm, Rom. 6, THUS PROLONGING THE LIFE OF ISRAEL! That is although ISRAEL broke God’s covenant and sought a covenant of DEATH, Isa. 28; 15, LORD (As Son of man), WHO UNDERSTAND THE GRAVITY OF ALL THINGS MADE A WAY TO SAVE THEM THROUGH HIS OWN DEATH----so that LIFE OF ISRAEL IS PROLONGED TO BE THE FAMILY OF GOD! His sacrifice is for the whole world, 1Jo 2:2, therefore believers of ALL FLESH would also be forgiven to worship Him, joining ISRAEL, Isa. 66: 23. We the gentiles who serve now became 1^st born of poor, Isa. 14: 30, so that LORD’S MESSAGES WERE TO BE DELIVERED TO ISRAEL BY US, Isa. 14: 1, 2, Eze. 30: 9, Isa. 60: 1-3, 9.

MORE SCRIPTURES --

Da 12:2- And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.

Ro 13:11  And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.

1Co 11:30 -For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep.

1Co 15:51 -Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,

1Th 4:14  For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. (Dead in Christ rise, 1Th 4:16, LORD’S SWORD, the word of God killed them, Amos 9: 1, Eze. 9: 6)

1Th 5:6 -Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.

1Th 5:7- For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night.

1Th 5:10 -Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with Him.

PEOPLE BELIEVE PEOPLE AND DO NOT BELIEVE JESUS CHRIST WHO WAS SENT BY ALMIGHTY FATHER—(Almighty God as Father planned to come as a SON OF MAN, Gal 4: 4, 5, and AS A LAMB, 1 Pe 1: 19-20, to GIVE LIFE TO ISRAEL WHEN THEY FAIL, Dan 9: 11, He had power to lay His life and take it back, Jo 10; 18).

Jo 5: 37- And the Father himself, which hath sent me, hath borne witness of me.

38 -And ye have not His word abiding in you: for whom He hath sent, Him ye believe not.

39- Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of Me.—Scripture point to JESUS CHRIST, Jo 17: 3

40 -And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life.---41 -I receive not honour from men.

42 -But I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you.—to have love of God, we are to be doers of word of God, Jas 1: 22.

43 -I am come in my Father’s name, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.---In present times, ISRAEL of God, Rom. 9: 4, 6,  received H.W.Armstrong!

44- How can ye believe, which receive honour one of another, and seek not the honour that cometh from God only?—that is the problem---people praising one another even if they do wrong things!!!

WE SHOULD LOVE THE PRAISE OF GOD MORE THAN PRAISE OF MEN--

Joh 12:43 -For they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God.

Ro 2:29  But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God

He is a Jew---circumcision of heart could only be gotten through baptizm of JESUS CHRIST—

Col 2: 11- In whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ:

12- Buried with Him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with Him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead.—THIS IS Rom. 6: 3-7.

13 -And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath He quickened together with Him, having forgiven you all trespasses;

SO HEART WOULD BE CLEANSED, CIRCUMCISED, having forgiven for all sins!

JESUS CHRIST DID ALL THINGS AS OF A HIGH PRIEST’S DUTIES—AS SHOULD BE DONE IN THE TEMPLE OF GOD--

Heb. 3: 17  Wherefore in all things it behoved him to be made like unto his brethren, that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make reconciliation for the sins of the people

18  For in that he himself hath suffered being tempted, He is able to succour them that are tempted. . (Just as Moses was faithful as a servant, JESUS CHRIST was faithful as THE SON over His own house, whose house are we, 1Co 3:16, 17, 1Co 6:19, --therefore He perform the duties of High Priest and apostle for us, Heb. 3: 1-5, ---

Heb. 3: 6  But Christ as a son over his own house; whose house are we, if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope firm unto the end.

7 -Wherefore (as the Holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will hear His voice,

  Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness:

EXCEPT A MAN BE BORN AGAIN HE CANNOT ENTER KINGDOM OF GOD ---

A MAN HAS TO BE BORN OF WATER AND OF SPIRIT

Jo 3: 3- Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. 5--Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

6 -That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

Water cleanses, a fountain of water is given, Zec 13: 1.

Life giving words are Spirit, Jo 6: 63, we are to worship in Spirit, Jo 4: 23, 24.

WISDOM, RIGHTEOUSNESS, SANCTIFICATION AND REDEMPTION HAS TO BE SOUGHT FROM JESUS CHRIST--

Ro 3:24 -Being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:

1Co 1:30- Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:

Ga 3:13 -Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:

Col 1:14  In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:

Tit 2:14  Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.

Heb 9:12  Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.

1Pe 1:18  Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers;

Re 5:9 -And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;---JESUS CHRIST opened the seals and performed the work of Revelations, Rev. 6: 1,3,5,7,9, 12, 8: 1 prove. When words fulfill, the work would be over, Rev. 17: 17.

WE ARE TO LIVE PRODUCING FRUITS OF KNOWLEDGE AFTER WE ARE CLEANSED THROUGH HIS BLOOD, 2 Pe 1: 2-8, if not it is as we had forgotten that we were forgiven--

2Pe 1:9  But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.

FRUITS OF KNOWLEDGE TO BE PRODUCED AS HE HAD CALLED US TO GLORY AND VIRTUE--

2 Pe 1: 2-- Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord,--3 -According as His divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him that hath called us to glory and virtue:--4 -Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.

5 -And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge;--6 -And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness;--7 -And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.--8 -For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

9 -But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.---THEREFORE WE ARE TO BE PRODUCING FRUIT OF KNOWLEDGE ALONG WITH FRUITE OF SPIRIT, Gal 5: 22-23.

LIGHT OF JESUS CHRIST CONDEMNS MEN WHO LOVES DARKNESS TO DO EVIL

Jo 3: 20-- For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.—EVIL DOERS HATE THE LIGHT AND HIDES FROM LIGHT!

21 -But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.—GODLINESS IS PROVED IF WE DO TRUTH AND COMES TO THE LIGHT! That means people cannot condemn good works, although they could accuse falsely, by lies, as it happens in the world! BUT IN CHURCH GOOD WORKS WOULD BE KNOWN BY BRETHREN! ---his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.

19- And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. LIGHT OF JESUS CHRIST CONDEMNS EVILNESS.

DEATH IS CONQUERED BY JESUS CHRIST-

1Co 15: 54- So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.

55 --O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?

56--The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law.

57 -But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

58 -Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.

The STING OF DEATH IS SIN---sin caused death!

LAW JUDGED SIN---BUT JESUS CHRIST REDEEMS FROM LAW AND FORGIVES SINS THROUGH HIS BLOOD, Eph. 1: 7, He became a Son of man to do so, Gal 4: 4, 5, AND TO GET THAT BLESSING, A BELIEVER OF HIS has to be BAPTIZED UNTO HIS DEATH, TO BE BORN AGAIN IN NEWNESS OF LIFE, Rom. 6: 3-7, THEN WE COULD SERVE HIM AGAIN IN HIS GLORIOUS THRONE, Rom. 6: 19, 22.

THAT MEANS WE HAD BEEN BORN AGAIN---WE HAD GOT LIFE FROM BEING DEAD TO SIN!

As I write these things very humbly, I thank and praise God for enabling me to be baptized unto His death during Passover 2011, and that is how I am being renewed day by day, 2Co 4:16.

We thank and praise YOU O LORD for YOU CHOSE YOUR DEATH ON THE CROSS TO FOFGIVE US AND REDEEM US FROM LAW AND TO CREATE A NEW COVENANT TO GIVE LIFE TO PEOPLE IN THE COVENANT!

PRAISE AND THANKSGIVNG, GLORY AND HONOUR, POWER AND MIGHT BELONG TO JESUS CHRIST, THE AUTHOR AND FINISHER OF ALL THINGS, AMEN AND AMEN.
