Sabbath 070147120 

Dear Friends,

Today is the Fast of 7 Abib which this year falls on the Sabbath which makes it of even more effect. Today we study the paper Fast for the Simple and Erroneous (No. 291).We can see from the ancient records that Christ and the church kept this fast from the beginning of the formation of the church in 27 CE and the church kept it for centuries up until the Sardis and Laodicean systems stopped keeping it and then switched to Hillel or no calendar at all other than the Sunday and the Sun and Mystery Cults. Both forfeited their place in the First Resurrection (No. 143A) and were sent to the Second Resurrection and the Great White Throne Judgment (No. 143B). The incredible part about it is that they are so brainwashed and incapable of determining fact from fiction that they are walking like zombies to their fate.

Sardis and Laodicea encompass millions in what were once viable Churches of God. Due to heresies in the Sardis systems, they split into what became the Sardis and Laodicean systems mostly centred on or emanating from North America.  These were the COG (SD) in its branches. That saw the formation of the Adventist and Bible Student groups that also became the Jehovah's Witnesses and their offshoots.   The COG (SD) also formed the WCG systems when they credentialled and hired Herbert Armstrong and saw the creation of the WCG and offshoot systems. The fact was that these systems were all commercialised and established false prophets over the two centuries of their heresy (see False Prophecy (No. 269)). They established doctrines totally contrary to the Bible and did not seem to care what was true. 

The reality is that they have been given the Warning of the Last Days (No. 044) and they are now about to enter the Great Tribulation (No. 141D_2). This event will commence with the War of the Sixth Trumpet soon to burst upon us. We are already in the War of the Fifth Trumpet (see No. 141C).

By next Pentecost God will deal with each of these systems in Sardis and Laodicea and smash them. There is no place of safety, no place to hide, except in the hand of God, and no getting raptured to heaven so some might read the “books.”  None of them will be allowed into the First Resurrection or into the Millennium under Christ. Judah will be placed under the Witnesses and brought to repentance. They will turn to the Temple Calendar and the Hillel Calendar will cease to exist. Those keeping it will be allowed to die before the Millennium starts. The brainwashed fools in all these systems will repent or simply be allowed to die before the Millennium. There will be no one left alive not keeping the New Moons and Sabbaths and Feasts according to the Temple Calendar as we are told so clearly in Isa. 66:23-24; Zech. 14:16-21 (see F023xvi; F038). God will not let these heretics live into the Millennium. If God will remove these whose founders once came from the Churches of God what chance has the Sun and Mystery Cults of surviving into the Millennium without repentance. The clear answer is nil. They have no chance of living into the Millennium without repentance.

It is for this reason that we, who are the Body of Christ, pray and fast today for the errors of the people in these organisations that have been brainwashed to heresy by equally brainwashed scoundrels that penetrated them from the Trinitarian and other systems, and for the entire world.   From the commencement of the Millennium, all systems not keeping the Law and the Testimony and the Temple Calendar will cease to exist from all branches of Christianity and Islam and the Sun and Mystery Cults and in Hinduism and Buddhism and every pagan religion on the planet. If you do not repent in the next few years you will not be in the First Resurrection and if you do not repent at the Return of Messiah (No. 282E; 141E; 141E_2) you will not be allowed to live into the Millennium (see No. 141F). You will be dealt with in the Second Resurrection and face the Second Death (No. 143C).
