The Right ?

 The leaders of the Jewish naikon often assert, witfout evidence or argument, that they have the right to live in the promised land. But do they, and what does God say?

God says, they don't have any right to live in the promised land, from where they were cast out in 70AD. The castl,g out was the fululillme,t of Sarahs command, (cast out the bond woman and her son; (Gal. 4:23-31).

The allagory from where the command comes is a deep, recondite, sublime mystery, which cannot be understood by the carnal mind.

NB. Yesterday, the leader of the Jewish Congress sald, the state of Israel, and the Jews in diaspera have the same destiny.

But he fakled to say, wfat is the destuny.

A Sound Mind

 The Chosen Vessel in his final epistle to Timothy was inspired to write: "For God has not given us a spirit fear, but of power, of love and of a sound mind" (2 Tim.1:7). A sound mind is not a mind of assumptions, conjectures, surmises oe speculations, all leading to erroneouss conclusions. That is, the frigftful world in which we live. A world mismanaged by asinine opinions.

The world leaders bein every sentence with, I think, when they cannot think, the evidence suggest or research indicates. All of thosse phrasws are mere meabibgless opinions.

The soind mind that the Holy Spirit gives to God's elect, is a rational, deductive mind, that discovers the truth of all things.

Division

Democracy has been exalted, especially in the west, as the greatest form of government ever invented. In some countries it has been elevated to the status of a religion, on which the citizens salvation depends.

However, when Solon, the Greek invented democracy, it was intended to placate the Plebs who had risen up against the injustices of the Patricians. Solon's idea was, if the Plebs voted for their leaders, the leaders would deveop policies to take the welfare of the Plebs into consideation. Of course, the selfishhness of the Patricians took priority over the interest of the Plebs. Today, the same is true. 

Confusion

In democratic countries a government and an opposition are elected at the same time. The opposition is to oppose the goverment. If that is not confused madness, I am Santa Claus.

However, Jesus says: "A house devided against itself cannot stand, but is brought to desolation" (Mark 3:25). Yet, what applies to a house, also applies to all the divided nations on earth. Because of devision, which leads to confusion, and every evil work (James 3:14). The world is on the path to desolation.

  

The End of The World

Cato, a Roman statesman, observed thus: "We must lay hold on the best opinions of men, as a raft, to take us over the dangerous waters of life; unless we can find a more sure word of God, that will take us much more safely." Sadly, the Romans did not find that sure word of God, so their empire was destroyed.

Today we live in a dangerous world, mismanaged by idiotic opinions. for no one understands the perils of life.

As a consequence, the world is on a course of self destruction. When Jesus disciples asked him, "What are the signs of your coming, and the end of the world?" He did not hesitate to tell them (Matt. 24:3-12). We are 26 years away from the end of the world. 

The Signs

The first sign the decip;es are to look for is an army of deceived men claiming to represent Jesus. Today, we have an estimated 600 million evangelicals, who have arrogated to themselves the title, ministers of Christ. But to represent Christ, one must have the spirit of Christ. For the words of the Chosen Vessel are these: "Now if any man have not the spirit of Christ, he is none of his"(Rom 8: 9). Yet, dispite that emphatic statement, an army of men without the spirit Christ, are deceiving gullible people into believing that they belong to Christ.

The second sign

The second sign is wars and rumours of wars. Today we have wars every where. Of course, Jesus is referring to national conflicts. Nations against nations, and kingdoms against kingdoms.

However, wars begin in homes, where parents fight one another, and the children fight each other and the parents, These days, marriage is an alien concept, Men and women just live together for a while before moving on because of conflict.

Sadly, today 85 per cemt of all children born in Britain and America are bastards; born out of wedlock. They are, therefore, cursed children, without any hope of salvation. For God told Moses, "A bastard shall not enter the congregation of the Lord, even unto the tenth generation." (Deut. 23:2).

The eleve (Deut.th generation overstep the ten commandments, and is a symbol of sin. And sinners will not be in the kingdom of God.

Yet, bastards were allowed to attend WCG's services. Some were even given responsibilities within the church, That was a clear sign that the hireling ministry were bastards themselves, as they came to the church without repentance (Heb. 12:6-7). These were spiritual bastards, because they were not born of the spirit.

The third sign, famine

Despite the abundance of food in the world, famine is on the horizon.  amiine is a frightful condition. The prophet Joel was inspjred to write: (Joel1-4).

The next sign is pestalence, followed by earthquakes. I shall returm to these topics at a later date. But today, I want to speak about a condition, that is leading to the collapse of all nations.

Atonement

The day of Atonement is a mirror image of the Passover. The Passover occurred on earth, when Jesus was crucified for the sins of the world, but the Atonement occurred in heaven for the redemption of God's elect. This teaching is set out in Hebrews chapter nine.

Sadly, to this day, the epistle to the Hebrews is not understood among the vast army of deceived, religious people, claiming to repersent Jesus. Also, when God revealed the holy days to Moses, and instructed him that Aaron be ordained the high priest, neither Moses nor Aaron understood the meaning of Atonement. For the Holy Spirit had not yet been given, and without the Holy Spirit, one cannot understand  the word of God. Of course, since the people of Israel don't believe that Jesus is both God and the son of God, they cannot understand the meaning of Atonement.

The Calendar of God

 Despite the scientific humbug, that 365 days make a year, the word of God speaks the truth, that 360 days make one year. This revelation was made known by the process of deductive reasoning, during and aftwr the flood.

The flood began on the 17th dat of the secon month, and the water remained upon the earth until the 17th day of the seventh month. Logic tells us, that period of time was five mpnths. Later we were told, the flood waters remained upon the earth for 150 days.

The sound, rational mind; blessed with the gift of deductive logic is able to correctly conclude, that according to the calendar of God, 360 days make a year.

Therefore, today is one year since Hamass attacked Israel. The question now is, how many more years will the war continue? According to the word of God, the war will continue until both sides are close to extinction, That will be around 2045.

The Beast

Soon after that date, the EU, led by Herr Pitt, the beast of Revelation 13, will send a large army into the Middle East, in an attempt to sort out to carnage.

A sealed book

Among the estimated 600 million evangelicals in the world, there is widespread ignorance of the teachings of the bible. When Jesus was on earth, he spoke to the people in parables. and his disciples asked him, what the parable meant? "And he said, unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to others in parables; that seeing they might not see, and hearing they might not understand (Luke 8:10). The parables were spoken to hide the meaning of the word from those who were not of God.

Despite that revelation, a vast army of deceived preachers think that Jesus came into the world to save anyone who wants to come to him. They don't understand that God foreordained, before the foundation of the world those that will be saved(Eph.1:4-5). These are called, "Vessels of mercy."

A sealed book

The bible was probably the first book ever written. It was written in eternity, and sealed with seven seals. No one but the father knew of its existence; not even the angels in heaven. Its content was hidden from everyone, including Jesus.

When John was taken up into heaven, he saw the book in the right hand of the father thus: "And I saw in the right of him that sat on the throne a book written and on the backside, sealed with seven seals (Rev.5:1-5). John added, "And I saw a strong angel with a loud voice, proclaiming who is worthy to open the book and to loose the seals thereof?"

The text continues, "And no man in heaven, nor in earth. or under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon." And I weep much, and he was told, "Weep not. behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the root of David, has prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof."

From what we just read, we learned that only Jesus is qualified to reveal what is written in what we called, the bible. God, the father, gave the revelation to Jesus (Heb.1:1-2). Jesus gave the revelation to the Holy Spirit, to give to the church (Rev.3:6). Jesus also said, Howbeit when the spirit of truth is come...(John 16:13-14). On the first Pentecost after Jesus's resurrection, the Holy Spirit gave the revelation to the church, in a blaze of glory. Tne Apstles were able to speak in several different languages, that astonished their listeners.

A vast Army

Today, we have a vast army of deceived, deluded men claiming to understand the bible. yet, none of these men have received the gift of the Holy Spirit. To them, the bible is a sealed book, written in parables.

 

Tobe continued

Pentecost

Sadly, the holy days were neither properly understood in Israel nor The Worldwide Church of God.

The Holy Days

Passover mirrors Atonement. The Passover took place on earth, but the Atonement occurred in heaven (Heb.9:1-2). The seven days of unleavened bread, described by the Chosen Vessel, as "the bread of sincerity and truth" (1Cor.5:1-8) Those days are mirrored by the seven days of the Feast of Tabernacles, which represent the eternal rest in the kingdom of God. Anyone without the virtues of sincerity and truth will not be there.

The duality and the final events of the Feast of Trumpets are wrapped in a recondite mystery, which can't be understood by the carnal mind. The term recondite was not chosen by me, but by the Holy Spirit. I am the only person on earth who use the term recondite, and have some understanding of what it means.

Pentecost

As I stated earlier, Pentecost is a mirror image of the last great day of The Feast of Tabernacles. It is a day of judgment: when God reveals who will be saved by the gift of the holy spirit, and who will perish without it.

When Jesus was on earth, it is recorded thus "In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood, and cried, saying, "if any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink. He that believes on me, as the scripture has said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water" (John 7:37-38). The Apostle John added, (But this spoke he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Spirit was not yet given; because Jesus was not yet glorified.)

Tragically, the remnant of Israel, who are children of the bond woman. They don't believe in Jesus. Hence, God allowing the attack on the 7 October 2023 It was the day of judgment. 

Is anyone so foolish as to believe, that God was unware of Hamas's plans?

Evil Inventions

 The Chosen Vessel in his sublime, recondite eplstle to the Romans, listed the vices that have produced the wretchedness of the human condition thus: (Rom.1:21-32). In that list we have, "the inventors of evil things."

Toledo

Ever since the fall of the Roman Empire, and the period, called the dark ages, there were very few evil inventions. But after the discovery of the library in Toledo, Spain, where the writings of the Greeks and Roman were rescued from destruction, many men interested in learning, headed for Toledo. That was the renaissance, or the rebirth of learning.

Who are the inventors

Since that time, we have had hundreds of evil inventions. Both theoretical and practical. But the question that demands an answer is this, who are the people, that are primarily responsible for the evil inventions in the world? These evil inventions, goaded by the devil, have driven humanity to the edge of disaster. If Jesus doesn't return before 2054, no flesh wil be save alive. But for the elect sake, he will return.

The inventions

The atomic bomb is perhaps the most evil invention known to man. It was deliberately developed to kill people. On the day that it was is was successfully tested Oppenheimer observed: "I am become death, the destroyer of worlds." But is it? Are there other evil inventions, masquerading as helpful products,  that have killed and are killing more people than the atomic bomb?

Pesticides

The gods of science looked at the creatures in the soil, and decided that they are pests, and must be killed. So the gods invented pesticides, that is sprayed by men in protected suits. Yet, the gods assure humanity that pesticides are safe to use on the land. But God created  the creatures in the soil for a special purpose, of which the gods of science are ignorant.

Still, the gods of science who think they know better than God, the Almighty, kill the creatures, poison the land, the animals, the food and our bodies. Then when people get sick, the gods recommend medicines, produced by witchcraft, to kill the sick. For experience has shown that sick people don't get better, unless it is a minor injury. There is no cure for cancer, despite the billions spent on research. No cure for heart disease, high blood pressure, or any other serious illness. Bit Satan has deceived humanity into believing, the gods of science can save them.

Medicines

Is the contraceptive pill an evil invention? In the past 70 years, it has killed more men and women than the Atomic bomb, and all the other weapons of war combined. Millions of women die every single year from gynecological rated cancers: from breasts to ovarian cancers, caused by women taking the contraceptive pill.

God says, people who invent evil things are worthy of death. Read it, if you dare.

To be ecological

Jesus is God

The war between Islam and Judaism will lead to the extermination of both religions and their people. The reason is, neither Islam nor Judaism accept that Jesus is God and the son of God.

As Islam has the Koran, and Israel the Torah, I don't know if they ever read the New Testament, written by the Apostles of Jesus Christ. But the New Testament is the revelation of what was concealed in the Torah until the coming of Jesus. 

The Coming of Jesus 

Over 600 years before Jesus was born, the prophet Isaiah was inspired to write: "For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulders: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of peace (Isaiah 9:6),. The fulfillment of this prophecy is recorded in Matthew 1:18, and Luke 1:26-31.

The angel Gabriel went on to say: (He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God: shall give unto him the throne of his father David (Luke 1:32).

The Rejection

Yet, Jesus was and is, to this day, rejected by the remnant of Israel, who deny that Jesus is both God and the son of God.

The fact that Islam doesn't recognise him as the son of God is irrelevant, as Islam is paganism, and its followers neither read the Torah nor the New Testament

Yet, the Chosen Vessel in his sublime epistle to the Hebrews, was inspired to write: "God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spoke in times past unto the fathers by the prophets, has in these last days spoken unto us by his son...(Heb.1:1-2). Also, in the gospel of John we read: "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God (John 1:1-2)

Later we read: "The Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us(verse14). That is, God was made flesh, and dwelt among us  (1Tim.3:16). Great indeed, is the mystery of godliness.

John also says, "He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not(John 1:10).

I appreciate that this sublime, recondite mystery can't be understood by people who don't have the holy spirit of truth. 

Anti Christ

People who deny that Jesus is the son of God are anti Christ, and they will perish. The Apostle John was inspired to write: "For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an anti Christ. (2 John 1:7).

It says, "many deceivers are entered into the world. From where did they come? They were seeded by deceived fathers, and deceived women gave birth to them.  If we examine the religions of the world, such as, Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, Sikhism, Buddhism and all the other satanic religions that deny the son of God, Jesus Christ, we are driven to conclude that the vast majority of the people on the earth will perish.

All the people that follow these religions are, "vessels of wrath, fitted to destruction (Rom.9:22). events leading to their destruction are terrifying.

At a later date, I will post the frightful details.

*****

The Second Temple

We know from scripture that God wanted Israel to build a second temple. The order to do so was given by Cyrus, the Persian. The details are set out in the books of Ezra and Nehemiah. The children of Israel were persecuted by various people, and God removed them to allow the building of the temple to continue. 

Later, Israel was distracted by their own interest, and the building of the temple had been neglected. So God sent Haggai, the prophet, to Zerubbabel, the governor of Judah, and to Josedech, the high priest, saying: "Thus speaks the Lord of hosts, saying, this people say, the time is not come, the time that the Lord's house should be built." (Hag.1-2)."

"Then came the word of Lord by Haggai the prophet saying. is it time for you, O ye, to dwell in your cieled houses, and this house lie waste?(Hag.1:3-4).

The people were about to be confronted with God's judgment for neglecting to first build God's house.

The Judgment

God told the people thus: "Consider your ways." In our modern world of dishonesty, decadence and depravity, people plunge themselves into all kinds of immorality without thought, and later, they suffer the frightful consequences. They don't consider their ways.

However, God said: "You have sown much, and brought in little; you eat, but you have not enough; you drink, but you are not filled with drink: you clothe you, but there is none warm; and he that earns wages earns wages to put it into a bag with holes." (Hag.1:6)

That meant that God had withdrawn his blessings from the people, because they had placed their interest before the interest of God,  When Jesus was on earth, he emphasised  the need to first seek the kingdom of God, and then God will bless you. (Matt.6:33).

In summary

The people responded to God's admonition, and went to mountain and brought the materials to finish the house of God. So God, the ever faithful and loving God, told the people: "I will bless you"(Hag.2:18-19).

 Finally

It should be evident that if God wanted a third temple, it would have been built years ago, and anyone resisting its building would have been put to death. 

Sadly, the people that returned to Israel in 1948, are a remnant of the bond woman.

A Third Temple

 Since 1948 there has been much talk about the building of a third temple, and since October 7th, the day of the Hamas attack, we have seen a small army of zealous, but ignorant men, speculating about a third temple. Yet, there are no scriptural texts that say, God wants Israel to build a third temple.

Furthermore, Israel could not build a third temple, to please God, while the Dome of the rock is still standing. For as Islam is a pagan religion, that had its origin in the mind of the devil, the Dome is a desecration of the temple mount, and the God of Israel would demand that it be pulled down before the building of a third temple.

Sadly, we are livin in a deceived world, where people believe that all religions should be respected. That is not the teaching of Jesus Christ. He said, "I will build my church, and gates of hell shall not prevail against it"(Matt.16:18). "The gates of hell shall not prevail," means that Satan will not be able to destroy his church, which is his spiritual body. Also, the apostles were inspired to add, "Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men , whereby we must be saved" (Acts 4:12).

A life of fear

Yet, nominal and even sometimes true Christians are terrified to speak out against paganism, in all its satanic forms. The Christian is told not to be afraid of anything or anyone. Note the sublime testimony of king David, a man beloved of the Lord, when he said: "The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life' of whom shall I be afraid? (Ps.27:1-2).

Those emphatic, rhetorical questions, teach us not to be afraid of anyone. Also, the inspired words of John are these, "There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear: because fear has torment. He that fears is not made perfect in love" (1 John 4:18).

To be continued

Zeal withou knowledge.

Today, as never before, there are armies of nominal Christians, all claiming to represent Jesus. We have the so-called bible belt in America, including a vast army of misguided men and women, that were former members of The Worldwide Church of God, who have now arrogated to themselves the responsibility to preach, what they foolishly think is, the gospel. In addition, we have a larger army emerging from beyond the rivers of Ethiopia, motivated by vanity and money, claiming to represent God. Some have been even so mad, that they have usurped the titles and offices of Apostle, Prophet and Evangelist.

As one of the signs of the last days, Jesus prophesied the coming of these misguided people thus: Take heed that no man deceive you.  For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ, and shall deceive many (Matt.24:4-5). These misguided men's zeal is motivated by vanity, power and greed. That is because they are ministers of Satan. Paul also observed thu: "For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, buy not according to knowledge. For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness (Rom.10:2-3).

Ignorance of God's word

In the first century, Paul and Barnabas came to Antioch in Pisidia, and went to the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and sat down. "And after the reading of the law and the prophets. the rulers of the synagogue sent unto them, saying, you men and brethren, if you have any word of exhortation for the people, say on.

Then Paul stood up, and outlined the history of Israel, and concluded by saying: "For they that dwell at Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they knew him not, nor yet the voices of the prophets which are read every Sabbath day, they have fulfilled them in condemning him (Acts 13:27).

These inspired words of Paul, are as true today as they were in the first century. As a results of pure zeal, today, the law and the prophets are read in synagogues around the world, every Sabbath day, but the readers don't understand what they are reading. The readers, today as in first century are ignorant of the "voices of the prophets."

The same is true of the vast army of religious zealots, that preach to their deluded, docile congregations every Sunday. It is estimated that there are 600 million evangelicals in the world, with 60 million in America. These people passionately sing songs, say Amen, but they don't understand the wholesome teachings of Jesus Christ, neither do they have the love of God, which leads to obedience.

To be continued.

Is God unjust?

As the results of the revelation of the perishing of Israel, according to the flesh, the Chosen Vessel, was driven to ask the question that humanity might pose thus: "Is there unrighteousness with God? (Rom.9:14) For in addition to the fact that Abraham had two sons, but only one will be saved. Paul also introduces another recondite mystery thus: "And not only this; but when Rebecca also had conceived by one, even by our father Isaac... Rebecca had twins in her womb, and before they were born, she was told "the elder shall serve the younger, that is, the first born will serve the second born.

Then Paul wrapped the mystery in parentheses, and elucidated its meaning thus: (For the children being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that purpose of God according to election might stand, or be established, not of works, but of him that calls:). (Rom.9:10-11).

Note the phrase, "not of works." I remember Carl McNair giving a sermon, and in it he said, "God choose Jacob over Esau, because he saw that Jacob would be a better person than Esau." I wrote to him telling him that he was preaching salvation by works. He replied saying, "I stand by what I said." He didn't live much longer after that heretical nonsense. However, it is clear that God chooses his elect by grace, and not by works. For God said, "Jacob have I love, but Esau have I hated." That emphatic sentence led Paul to anticipate humanities' reaction to God's decision, by asking the question: "Is there unrighteousness with God" (Rom.9:14)? 

Paul's immediate reply is, "God forbid." But to fully answer the question, Paul turns to the analogy of the potter. God is the master potter, and he has one lump of clay on the potter's wheel. From that lump of clay, he makes different vessels thus: "Have not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour (Rom,9:21)? For example, Jacob and Esau were of same lump. For they both came out of the loins of their father Isaac,  They were both innocent of sin. Yet, God loved Jacob and hated Esau.

Therefore, the potter may make a beautiful vase, or a beautiful set of teacup and saucers. The vase to display beautiful flowers, and the teacups and saucers to entertain special guests.

But the potter also has a dog, that must be fed; and from the same lump of clay, he makes a bowl to feed the dog. It is obvious that the dog's bowl doesn't have the same honour as the vase, the teacups or the saucers. But the question is this: "shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, why have you made me thus"(Rom.9:20)? Can the dog's bowl, with justification, ask the potter that question? The answer is no, but why is the answer no?

That recondite, sublime mystery is wrapped in three fundamental concepts. One, the foreknowledge of God. Two, the doctrine of election and three, predestination. These fundamental concepts, which God purposed in himself, were given to him by the good pleasure of his counsel, which is immutable (Heb.6:18). Also, Isiah was inspired to write: "Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else like me., declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done. saying my counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure..."(Is. 46:9-10).

NB: I have asked the question before, who is God's counsellor?

To be continued

The Reformation

It was at the time of reformation (Heb.9:10), that the bond woman was cast out. The covenant that was made with the bond woman, and her son, was implemented 430 (Gal.3:16-17) years after God made the promise to Abraham and his son, who was born from the free woman, Sarah.

So we learned that the old covenant was abolished at the reformation, and was replaced with the new covenant, where the laws of God are written in the hearts of his spiritual children(Heb.8:10), and Jesus is their High Priest, according to the order of Melchisedec(Heb.7:11-13).

The reformation, of course, began with the death, resurrection and ascension of Jesus, as high priest, into the Holy of Holies, in  heaven: where he  offered himself, without spot to God, for the redemption of God's elect; and the reformation was fulfilled on the first Pentecost, when the Holy Spirit was given, and the new covenant was implemented in the church.

At that time, the twelve tribes of Israel, represented by the bond woman and her son, who was born according to the flesh, were cast out. The Chosen Vessel was inspired to explain this sublime, recondite mystery, and he said: "That is, they which are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God(Rom.9:8).

The misconception that was preached in WCG for years, and was perceived as a status of superiority over other people, was the belief that the physical descendance of Abraham were the people of God. They are the children of Abraham, but not the children of God. The Chosen Vessel was inspired to write: "For as many as are led by the spirit of God, they are the sons of God(Rom.8:14). Then he added, "And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint heirs with Christ...(verse 17).

What does the allegory say, "Cast out the bondwoman and her son: for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the freewoman (Gal.4:30). And again, Paul added: "We are not children of the bondwoman, of the free (verse 31).

The "we" refers to converted Christians, that are led by the spirit of God. They mother is the heavenly Jerusalem, the wife of Christ. And that is a very great mystery (Eph.5:32).

Hence, Paul's lamentation over the perishing of his kinsmen, according to the flesh (Rom.9:1-3).

No wonder King Solomon was inspired to write: "He that increases knowledge, increases sorrow." For he knows things that others don't know, and that knowledge can be very painful. Think of Noah building the Ark, and warning the people that the flood was coming, and he was ignored by everyone. Today, the same is true.

Sadly, the epistles of Paul were sealed documents in WCG. That is because the men who were ordained ministers were unconverted, and therefore, they never received the gift of the holy spirit of truth, which guides God's people into all truth (John 16:13).

Cast out the bond woman

Ever since the attack on Israel by Hamas on the 7th October, the last great day of the feast of tabernacles, a cabal of self appointed prophets have emerged, claiming to understand the attack, and how it relates to the prophecies that explain the return of Jesus. So far, all that they have preached is an indication of pure ignorance of the word of God.

Where was God?

However, the question they have failed to ask is, where was God when Hamas was planning the attack? Do these deceivers believe that God was asleep, and was just as surprised by the attack as Israel was? Perish the thought. For Jesus emphasising God's knowledge and control of his creation says, "Two sparrows are sold for a penny, yet not one falls to the ground, without the knowledge of my father." And that is not only true of sparrows, it is true of every creature on earth. So God was well aware that Hamas was planning to attack Israel. Why didn't he prevent the attack? 

People might be surprised to discover, I almost said to learn, that God was the cause of the attack. Note the ispired words of king Solomon thus: The Lord has made all things for himself; yes, even the wicked for the day of evil" (Pro.16:4). Why did God caused that day of evil to come upon Israel? For it could not have occurred, if it was not his will.

The Last Great Day

The last great day of the Feast of Tabernacles is a day of judgment, and it mirrors the day of Pentecost. On the last great day of the feast Jesus gave a sermon, and he said: "If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink. He that believes on me, as the scripture has said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water."(John 7:38). And John tells us, that Jesus was referring to the gift of the Holy Spirit, which was given on the day of Pentecost. 

A day of judgment

Pentecost mirrors the last great day, which is the day of judgment. Hence Jesus's sermon on the last great day. Those that receive the gift of the holy spirit will be saved, to share the eternal inheritance with Christ. But the son of the bond woman, the allegory informs us, shall not be hier with the son of the free woman. The son of the bond woman was born according to the flesh, but the son of the free woman was born by promise.

Now if reports are to be believed, on the 7th October, the last great day, a large number of young people were out listing to music and reveling. The bible says that revellers will not be in the kingdom of God (Gal.5:20-21).

Jesus's betrayal  

And second, the consequences of the betrayal of Jesus by Caiaphas, the high priest. Plus, the frightful curse all the people called down upon themselves, by saying, "His blood be on us, and on our children"(Matt.27:25). And it has been, and will be, until the bond woman has been completely cast out.

The prophecy of the destruction of Jerusalem, and the beginning of the casting out of the bond woman, is embedded in the dual prophecy of Matthew twenty four. The first fulfillment of the duality was the destruction of Jerusalem in 70AD by the Roman general Titus. The final destruction of Jerusalem and the casting of the bond woman will be initiated by the beast power, and brought to fulfillment by the battle of Armageddon.

Israel ?

 Ever since Hamas attacked Israel on the Last Great Day of the Feast of Tabernacles, 7th October 2023, we have seen a cabal of deceived religionists preaching as thought they understand the prophecies of the bible, when they don't. We have had speculations, conjectures, surmises and assumptions from a host of deceived charlatans

However, the Apostle Peter was inspired to write: "We have also a more sure word of prophecy;"  He described it, "As a light that shines in a dark place, until the day dawn...(1 Pet.2:19). That day is the day of the Lord. Then he added: "Knowing this first, that no prophecy of scripture is of any private interpretation..." Then he gave the reasons why. 

Yet, we have a sick cabal of men, without the Holy Spirit, calling themselves ministers of Christ, setting out to privately interpret the conflict in the Middle East, with Israel at the core of many attacks.

The Allegory

To understand the cause of the conflict and how it will end, one has to first understand the allegory of (Gal.4:22-31). Sadly, this allegory was not understood in WCG.  In fact, in my 22 years attending services with WCG, it was never even mentioned as a curiosity. The men that were ordained as ministers did not have the holy spirit, and without the holy spirit one cannot understand the mysteries of the bible. For Jesus told his disciples, "I have yet many things to say unto you, but you cannot bear them now. Howbeit, when he, the Spirit of truth is come, he will guide you into all truth:(John 16:12-13). The phrase, "you cannot bear them" means, you cannot understand the things I have to say to you until you have received the gift of the Holy Spirit. On the day of Pentecost, the Holy Spirit came on the disciples in a blaze of glory, and they were able to understand what the spirit revealed to them. If the same had happened to the ministers in WCG, they would have also been able to understand, and explain the mysteries of the bible, including the allegory of Galatians four. Their ignorance of the bible is clear evidence that they don't have the spirit of God. And that is terrifying!

Israel

The Israel of today is a remnant of the people that returned from the Babylonian captivity, to rebuild the temple. The population that returned, mainly consisted of Levites, the priestly tribe, the children of Benjamin and some Jews, who were not descendants of King David.

The last king of Israel, Zedekiah, was taken to Babylon and put to death. But before he was put to death, his sons were murdered before his eyes. The only members of his family that survived, were his daughters, princes. They were taken into Egypt by Jerimiah.

So when the people returned from Babylon, there was no one to revive the kingdom of Judah. The country was managed by the Levites and governors. Later the Romans appointed kings and governors. we note that when Jesus was born, Herod was king, and when he was crucified Pontius Pilate was governor.

The other ten tribes, that were separated from the Kingdom Judah, after the death of Solomon, were taken captive in 721BC by the Assyrian King, Shalmaneser. These, to this day, are called the lost sheep of the house of Israel. Although, some of them have been identified. Britain is Ephraim and America is Manassas.

The bond woman

According to the allegory, the Israel that existed at the time of Jesus, consisted of the children of the bond woman, who were born according to the flesh, and to whom the first covenant, from mount Saini, was  given by Moses. That covenant established the Levitical Priesthood, that ministered in the sanctuary, for the forgiveness of physical sins. Under the first covenant, there were no sacrifices for spiritual sins. The lost sheep of the house of Israel are also children of the bond woman. For they were born according to the flesh.

Sarah told Abraham, "Cast out the bond woman and her son, for the son of bond woman shall be heir with the son of the freewoman." Ask yourself, what does that mean for the Israel of today? It means the children of the bond woman will perish. That means, Britain, America and Israel will be destroyed, before Jesus returns. He is due to return by 2054, but all the signs are, he will be here by 2050.

Paul's sorrow

Paul was aware that Israel, according to the flesh will perish. So he wrote the following lament: "I say the truth in Christ, I lie not, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Spirit. That I have great heaviness, and continual sorrow in my heart. for I could wish (Had it been possible) that myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh. Who are Israelites; to whom pertains the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service of God, and the promises"(Rom.9:1-4)

In verse six Paul says, "For they are not all Israel: Neither because they are the seed of Abraham, are they all children; but in Isaac shall thy seed be called"(Rom.9:6-7).

This mystery is sublime, recondite and extremely deep.

Jesus's betrayal  

And second, the consequences of the betrayal of Jesus by Caiaphas, the high priest. Plus, the frightful curse all the people called down upon themselves, by saying, "His blood be on us, and on our children"(Matt.27:25).;

By The Will of God

 Kenneth S Wuest, in his Greek word studies of the epistle to the Ephesians, he described it as the epistle of the ascension, for it towards in the heavenly. He further observed that in the first three chapters, there isn't a single word of admonishment. The focus is solely on doctrine. For a man who didn't appear to be a converted Christian, his observations are profound.

Of course, Ephesus was a bastion of Christianity in Asia. When Paul was on his way to Jerusalem, from Miletus he sent and called the elder from the church at Ephesus, and he delivered to them one of the greatest speeches ever recorded. Also, Ephesus was the first church to which John was told  to send book of Revelation.

 However, years later, Paul is imprisoned in Rome, and from his prison cell, he is writing to God's elect in Ephesus.  He introduced himself thus: "Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, by the will of God, to the saints that are at Ephesus, and to the faithful in Christ Jesus" (Eph.1:1).

Firstly, what is meant by the phrase, "By the will of God?" And who are "the faithful in Christ Jesus? 

Apostle

The word Apostle, is unique to Christianity, and was divinely inspired by the Holy Spirit. Its derivation from Greek means to send. Apo, means away from, and stela, means to send. Therefore, Paul was sent to preach the gospel, represent the kingdom of God, educate and protect God's children of God from the deceptions of the devil. The twelve Apostle were alsp sent to fulfill the same duties as Paul.

All Spiritual Blessings

After reminding the saints of the blessings of grace and peace, that God and Jesus Christ had conferred upon them, and all his children, he says: "Blessed be the God and father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ: (Eph.1:3). All, means all, nothing lacking. Paul goes on to say, that these blessings were conferred upon the church members, "According as he had chosen us in him before the foundation of the world...then he gives the reason why we were chosen in Christ, before the foundation of the world thus: "that we should be holy and without blame before in love."

Holy and without blame

The question that demands an answer is this, if we were chosen after the foundation of the would, could we still be holy and without blame before him in love?

Then Paul added: "Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ unto himself ."

In this sublime and recondite epistle, I have reached verse five, and in those five verses some of the most recondite, doctrinal mysteries have been revealed.

1. the phrase, by the will of God; what does it mean?

2. God's foreknowledge.

3. the doctrine of predestination.

4.the doctrine of redemption.

5. the doctrine of adoption.

Sadly, not a single one of these doctrines was understood in WCG, not even by Mr. Armstrong, and he had the spirit of God. and was called by God to preach the gospel.

In WCG, the doctrine of adoption was never mentioned. Redemption was referred to, but not understood, and predestination was labelled a Calvinist doctrine. Yet, from his prison cell in Rome, the Chosen Vessel, as he was lovingly called by his Lord and master, Jesus Christ, revealed the doctrine of predestination.

Tragically, the epistles of Paul were sealed documents among those, in WCG, whose minds were poisoned by systematic theology, ambition and greed. Can any of these men write a letter to their respective, deceived, docile congregations, and begin the letter: James Henderson, David Hulme, Dave Pack, Jerry Flurry, Victor Kubic. Dave Havir, a minister of Jesus Christ, by the will of God.

If they dare to do it, it will be an immediate death sentence.

Flesh and Spirit

 Someone, called Anon, asked  the question, "Do you believe in an eternal soul?" The question is a clear indication, that Anon is just as ignorant as Nicodemus was of the doctrine of born again. So Jesus had to expose Nicodemus's ignorance, by asking him, "Are you a master in Israel, and don't know these things?"

The Anon that asked the question, is likely to be a hireling minister of Satan, "transforming himself as a minister of righteousness..."(2Cor.11:13-15). So as Jesus exposed Nicodemus' ignorance, I will also expose Anon's ignorance.

The narrative that begins in Luke 16:19, to save space, I will summarised the details. We have a rich man, clothed in purple and fine linen, (like the hirelings). He fared sumptuously every day, (like the hirelings, with other peoples' money).

We also have Lazarus, a beggar, covered in sores from head to foot, desiring to be fed with the crumbs that fell from the rich man's table, and whose sores were licked by dogs, (unlike the hirelings, who have health insurance, so they can be poisoned to death by legal drugs).

Lazarus's Death

From here, the narrative that was told by Jesus, takes on a deeper dimension. "The beggar, Lazarus, died, and was taken by the angels into Abraham's bosom. Abraham, or course, represents God, the father, into whose bosom the elect spirits are carried at death, instead of being cast into hell. That is a mystery the hirelings are too ignorant to understand.

The Rich Man's Death

The rich man also died, and was buried. As is the case with all carnal people. But note the difference in location from Lazarus and the rich man. Lazarus is in the bosom of the father, but the rich man lifted up his eyes in hell. What? When the rich man died, were his eyes not buried with his body? If the answer is yes, and it certainly is. What eyes were those, that were lifted up in hell? 

 

Man's Eternal Spirit

 

God clearly revealed through Christ, that man has a spirit, which raises him above the animals. By that spirit he is able to speak, and in the right environment, learn to read and write. The spirit also makes him conscious of himself. For Paul was inspired to pose the question: "For what man knows the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him(1 Cor.2:11)? The sublime teaching here is, man is inscrutable to his fellow man. 

 

That truth is illustrated by Interrogators beating suspects to death, trying to discover what they know; and as long as the suspects keep silent, the interrogators remain frustrated. The analogy Paul is making, is that the same applies to God. Only God's spirit knows what is in the mind of God, and we can only know what is in God's mind, if he reveals it to us. And God reveals what is in his mind, by the gift of the holy spirit to his elect.

This sublime teaching will not be understood by those who studied systematic theology, and have now thrown the fourth commandment and Passover out of the window, and have replaced them with Sunday service and holy communion, two heresies of Catholicism.  

However, when sinners  die, including the rich man,  "Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return to God who gave it (Ecc.12:7). It was that spirit of the rich man, that lifted up its eyes in hell.

God's Counsellor.

The Chosen Vessel was inspired to ask this question: "For who has know the mind of the Lord, and who has been his counsellor? (Rom.11:34). Also, the prophet Isaiah posited thus: "Who has directed the spirit of Lord, or being his counsellor have taught him?(Isaiah 40:13). These two questions lead God's elect to meditate the deepest mystery that is revealed in the pages of the bible. They also inspire us to a level of wonder, that transcends comprehension.

The proposition, which God purposed in himself was: "Come let us make man in our image, and in our lightness." Who counselled him to implement this proposal, which is nearing its fulfillment?

In the Epistle to the Hebrews, God revealed that his counsel is immutable (Heb.6:17). That is, it cannot change. Therefore, when God receives instructions from his counsellor, it cannot be altered. Otherwise, it won't be immutable. But the question that still has not been answered is, who is God's counsellor?

To identify who is God's counsellor; that knowledge will bring joy unspeakable. It will also lead to perfect obedience in word and deed, and to perfect peace. 

Pearls and swine 

I could revealed who God's counsellor is. But for two reasons I won't. One, the biblical ignorance of the men that studied systematic theology, and are now masquerading as ministers of Christ, must be exposed.

Two, Jesus says, "Cast not your pearls before swine.." So in obedience to Christ, I will not cast this pearl of great price before them, for they to trample it under their feet. They must die in ignorance, and be cast into outer darkness.

NB: complaining to Google will achieve nothing. God is in charge of the internet.
