Sabbath Message 21/02/42/120

Dear Friends,

This is the Sabbath Year and we will progress on into the Third Month and Pentecost with an examination of the Laws of God (L1) and their importance to the faith. It is important that we understand the link between the Law and the Testimony and the Inspiration in the faith. It is the test of a prophet and their inspiration. Isaiah (8:20) says that if they do not speak according to the Law and the Testimony there is no light (or dawn) in them. The Bible is clear. God has given us the Law through the hands of a mediator.  The Law of God was issued by Christ as the Angel of the Presence to Moses and Israel at Sinai (Acts 7:35-39 and 1 Cor. 10:4). The faith has been corrupted by antinomians and liars over the last 2000 years in order to destroy it (cf. Antinomian Attacks on the Law of God (No 164D)). Such lies and false doctrine has entered the Churches of God over the same 2000 years and in the last days two entire eras were destroyed by it (cf. The Pillars of Philadelphia (No. 283)).

Make no mistake: God gave us the Law and preserved it in the texts of Scripture so that we are guided and inspired by it. Those that do not follow and obey it are sent to the Second Resurrection (No. 143B) for retraining. Those who are judged capable of obedience are selected by God and called by Him. They are given the Holy Spirit and directed in the faith. These people are trained and prepared for the First Resurrection (No. 143A).

Over the next two weeks to Pentecost we will deal with the importance of the Law and the selection and predestination of the elect. In the process of the calling it is important that we all understand the requirements of the faith and that intellectual honesty and obedience are required of all of us. If anyone thinks that they can determine what aspects of the Laws of God they will obey and which ones they will not obey or defer or postpone then they will be removed to the Second Resurrection. No minister or priest or prophet can speak contrary to the Law and the Testimony.  No minister or congregation can moderate or alter the Law of God or keep a calendar other than that kept by Messiah and the Apostles in the Temple period before its destruction in 70 CE and in accordance with that given by Christ to Moses at Sinai as recorded in the Torah and reinforced in the Qur’an (eg. SS3:093; 4:154; 095:1-3 cf. Q003; Q004; Q095).  The penalty is immediate rejection and allocation to the Second Resurrection (143B ibid). There is no negotiation.

We will discuss the Predestination and The Problem of Evil for the First Resurrection or the exanastasin or outresurrection spoken of by Paul in Philippians. 3:11. It is the outresurrection because it is to take the elect out of the creation in that critical phase both before the Millennium and the Physical Resurrection of the Judgment and removes the elect from physical existence to spiritual existence ahead of the world sequence, hence the term “outresurrection.”

The majority of the Sardis and Laodicean eras are called but not chosen and it is sad but is an alarm to the brethren of the First Resurrection that are fortunate enough to be called out of those misguided eras. They are led by the Holy Spirit from the errors of those systems. Most of the world in the last days are not called by God, but all are His creation and part of His plan. However, the purpose of the Philadelphian system was to call Judah and Ishmael and the Sons of Keturah and all Islam to repentance along with idolatrous Israel, who will be tested and placed under trial.  Sardis and Laodicea were unfit for the task because of their Ditheist and Trinitarian idolatry in making Christ a coequal and coeternal God (cf. 283 above). They are not allowed to keep God’s Calendar (No. 156), because of that idolatry, as we will explain at Pentecost.

Among our people now we are faced with appalling dishonesty not only in the church but among our leaders, politicians, judiciary and our educators. It is for that reason our ministers are placed in the Second Resurrection in accordance with the comments by James (3:1) where they are judged more harshly because they teach lies (cf. Commentary on James (F059)).
Our purpose is to be made priests of the Order of Melkisedech under Christ who is our High Priest as we see from Hebrews (cf. Commentary on Hebrews (F058)). We will be appointed to 24 divisions under 24 High Priests under Christ who is the 25th or overall High Priest. In that process we will be appointed to duplicate the Heavenly Council of Revelation chapters 4 and 5. These divisions are also part of and include the twelve apostles as heads of the Twelve Tribes of Revelation chapter 7 who form the 144000 and the Great Multitude of the First Resurrection.

Over the next nine years we will proceed to Read the Law in 2019 then we will begin the last or Seventh Sabbath Cycle of this jubilee and this will be the equivalent of the week of Standing at Sinai when the Law was given and they were prepared to enter the Promised Land. Had Judah repented between 30 and 70 CE then matters would have been entirely different for both them and Israel and the Church of God. They did not repent and so we were all condemned to Forty Jubilees in the wilderness in accordance with the Sign of Jonah (No. 013). In 2026 we will again Read the Law. On Atonement 2026 the Jubilee Year will be declared as the acceptable year of the Lord and continue to Atonement 2027 exactly 2000 years or Forty Jubilees from the declaration of Christ in 27 CE.  The lands will be redistributed for the millennial system and will be occupied and prepared for the millennial system to begin in 2028 (cf. The Golden Jubilee (No. 300)).

Every person who has failed to attain the First Resurrection, and deemed worthy to remain alive in repentance, will go into the Millennium as humans and begin to reconstruct the planet. Most of those who are part of the Churches of God of the Sardis and Laodicean eras and who have not repented of their errors and false doctrines will find themselves as humans and part of this system and will live to be part of the Second Resurrection after the Millennium has finished.  Some will be translated on resurrection. Others will face the Judgment of Krisis and be subject to the Second Death. All others will be brought to repentance and allowed into the millennial system.  Those who do not will be killed by Christ in the Vials of the Wrath of God (cf. Wars of the End Part III: Armageddon and the Vials of the Wrath of God (No. 141E).

All of this is unnecessary for them.  If they repent now, they will live, and face the First Resurrection, and be spared the Tribulation. However, many will not and will follow their ministry into destruction.

Do not be deceived.  Repent and be baptised and be saved in the Philadelphian system.
