The lie: you shall be as "gods" knowing good and evil....

Peace to those who may read.

Men worship God in vain when they set aside the commandment of God (to have love for one another) in order to keep the “tradition”….that is, the transmission…of men.

These transmissions of men are their handwritings of church ordinances (dogmas) that the “scribes” have set their “church” up with. They use these transmissions of men to judge others with which is not having love for others. MANY reject the commandment of God (to have love for each other) in order to keep their own transmission.

Mark 7:7-9 KJV
(7) Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.
(8) For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do.
(9) And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition.

MANY people willing subject themselves to the handwriting of church dogmas which are patterned after the “rudiments of the world”. They see themselves as “wise” for doing so. Professing themselves as “wise”, they became fools.

The world needs ordinances to live by for they do not know and do not obey God and have need of structured laws because the world is unstable. The handwriting of the dogmas (ordinances) of men rises up out of the “sea” of the nations as they are patterned after the “rudiments of the world”.

If we are dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why then as though living in the world are we subject to the church dogmas of the “scribes”?

Colossians 2:20-23 KJV
(20) Wherefore if ye be dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, are ye subject to ordinances,
(21) (Touch not; taste not; handle not;
(22) Which all are to perish with the using after the commandments and doctrines of men?

MANY see themselves as “wise” and so they willing subject themselves to the handwriting of church dogmas which do NOTHING to save the flesh. These things have a show of wisdom in “will worship” as many gladly, voluntarily subject themselves to the handwriting of church dogmas written by the “scribes” who have wrested their carnal commandments with their fleshly minds out of the Scriptures. They think themselves as “wise” for doing so.

They DO NOTHING to save the mortal flesh of anybody. Instead, MANY are perishing by the using of them.

(23) Which things have indeed a shew of wisdom in will worship, and humility, and neglecting of the body; not in any honour to the satisfying of the flesh.

Seeing themselves as wise, they change the truth of God into THE lie and worship and serve the “creature”…the ORDINANCE …more than the Creator.

Romans 1:22-25 KJV
(22) Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
(23) And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
(24) Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
(25) Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.

That is what the woman did in the garden. She first inserted her own carnal commandment (“neither shall you touch it) to the Creator’s original commandment. God did not say “neither shall you touch it”.

But that is what men do with their handwriting of church dogmas...they insert their own carnal commandments and set aside His the commandment that we have received from the beginning (to have love for each other) in order to keep the carnal commands of men and use them as a basis to judge others with.

Genesis 3:1-7 KJV
(1) Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?
(2) And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden:
(3) But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.

They change the Truth of God into THE lie.

The lie of the serpent: “you shall not surely die” should be translated literally “dying, you shall not die”….that is, “killing, you shall not die”. We “kill” others when we speak evil of others…judging them.

“You shall not die”….speaks of the “peace and safety” message. We shall not have “peace” for “killing” others with the sword of our tongue as we judge others with our carnal commandment as a basis for doing so.

(4) And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:

The lie of the serpent: “For God does know…” which implies that we are doing God “service” for killing others with our evil speaking as we judge others over our own carnal commandments ( i.e. neither shall you touch it). We are not serving God when we use our mouths to speak evil of other men who are made in His image. We are not blessing God by cursing other men. We are not judges for God…doing these so-called “wonderful works” in His name….in His authority.

The lie: “then your eyes shall be opened”……that is, you shall be seen as “wise”. Professing themselves “wise”, they became fools. Many see themselves as “wise” when they willingly subject themselves to church ordinances and let men exalt themselves over them. They gladly let men take them into their church bondage where they judge others using their carnal commandments.

The lie: “you shall be as gods”….that is, as JUDGES. The Hebrew word for “gods” is Elohim which also means “JUDGES”. MANY see themselves as wise as they see themselves as JUDGES for God when they speak evil of others. A judge knows what or who is “good and evil” and so many who see themselves as “wise” in their churches use their carnal commandments of men to speak evil of others as they act as judge, jury and executioner of others.

(5) For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.

Men make a living in the churches of carnal men for doing these things. The tree was good for food.

Men take pleasure in their unrighteousness as they speak evil of others….it was pleasant to the eyes.

Men want to be seen as “wise” for doing these things…a tree to be desired to make one wise.

Yet, men shall eat of the fruit of their tongue as death and life are in the power (hand) of the tongue.

(6) And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.

Not every one who says “Lord, Lord” (sewing fig leaves together) shall enter into the kingdom of heaven.

(7) And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons.

Every tree that does not bring forth good fruit is hewn down and cast into the fire.

Matthew 7:17-27 KJV
(17) Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
(18) A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
(19) Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
(20) Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.

Not everyone that says unto Him, “Lord, Lord” shall enter into the kingdom of heaven but he that DOES the will of the Father which is in heaven. We cannot sew “fig leaves together” by saying “Lord, Lord” and not do the will of God and expect to enter into the kingdom of heaven which is eternal. We cannot inherit eternal life in this world when we do not DO His will. The wages of sin (evil speaking) is death…death to the mortal body.

(21) Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.

The lie: "for God does know". That is, we are doing these evil things supposedly in His name....in His authority. Let us not love and practice the lie. We can not judge others as "devils"...evil doers...when they do not follow our particular denomination's carnal handwriting of dogmas. There is only ONE LAWGIVER who is able to save and destroy.

(22) Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
(23) And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

We must be a DOER of the work…the law of Christ…the doctrine of Christ….the commandment of God: to have love for one another.

(24) Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:
(25) And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.
(26) And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:
(27) And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.

We must be a DOER of the “law”…the law of Christ ….who commanded us to have love for one another. He that speaks evil of another is not a doer of the law, but a JUDGE (the lie: you shall be as gods…judges…knowing good and evil).

James 4:11-12 KJV
(11) Speak not evil one of another, brethren. He that speaketh evil of his brother, and judgeth his brother, speaketh evil of the law, and judgeth the law: but if thou judge the law, thou art not a doer of the law, but a judge.

There is only ONE LAWGIVER who is able to save and destroy.

We cannot judge others using the external commandments of men (you shall not touch it). This is setting aside the commandment of God (the law: have love for one another) in order to keep the handwriting of church dogmas. This is serving the “creature” and worshipping the doctrines and commandments of men more than the Creator who commanded us from the beginning to have love for each other. We cannot hide behind "Lord, Lord". We are not as "gods"...JUDGES...in His name...in His authority.

(12) There is one lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy: who art thou that judgest another?

This is the message that we have heard from the beginning: that we should love one another. We must serve the Creator and not the “creature”…the handwriting of the ordinances of men which are hostile to us. They are against us as we use them to speak evil of others…judging them…and are not doers of the law we have had from the very beginning.

1 John 3:7-15 KJV
(7) Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
(8) He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
(9) Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.
(10) In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.
(11) For this is the message that ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another.
(12) Not as Cain, who was of that wicked one, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother's righteous.
(13) Marvel not, my brethren, if the world hate you.
(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.
(15) Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him.

MANY set aside the commandment of God in order to keep the transmissions of men. They use them to speak evil of others…changing the truth of God into THE lie. They think that they are actually doing God “service” for “killing” others….being judge, jury and executioner of others who do not follow their particular carnal commandment that they so “wisely” keep….as they see themselves as “wise” for doing so.

John 16:1-3 KJV
(1) These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be offended.
(2) They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service.
(3) And these things will they do unto you, because they have not known the Father, nor me.

They think that they are blessing God by cursing other men. Out of the same mouth proceeds blessing and cursing. This should not be so.

James 3:8-18 KJV
(8) But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.
(9) Therewith bless we God, even the Father; and therewith curse we men, which are made after the similitude of God.
(10) Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be.
(11) Doth a fountain send forth at the same place sweet water and bitter?

Either make the tree good or make it evil. It can not be both.

(12) Can the fig tree, my brethren, bear olive berries? either a vine, figs? so can no fountain both yield salt water and fresh.

Many see themselves as “wise” for doing this thing. The woman in the garden desired to be seen as “wise”. But let those who are truly wise and endued with knowledge among us show it out of a good behavior his wise works with MEEKNESS of wisdom.

(13) Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you? let him shew out of a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom.
(14) But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth.
(15) This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish.
(16) For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.
(17) But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.
(18) And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace.

We are free to eat of the trees of the garden…..the fruit of the Spirit is love, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance. Against such there is NO LAW.

Galatians 5:22-26 KJV
(22) But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
(23) Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
(24) And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.
(25) If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.

But the woman wanted to be seen as “wise” and partook of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. She changed the truth of God into THE lie. MANY today are desirous of vain glory…wanting to be seen as “wise” ….and provoke others with their carnal commandments (speaking evil of others in judgment) out of envy. This is wisdom is earthy and of the devil. Let no man deceive you into thinking that we have freedom from keeping the commandment of God.

(26) Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.

There is no law against the fruit of the Spirit….as we may freely eat of it.

Genesis 2:16-17 KJV
(16) And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat:

But there is a law of sin and death. We must not eat of this tree for we shall surely die. The wages of sin is death….death to the mortal body.

(17) But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.

Yet, MANY in their “wisdom” do these very things in their churches as they judge others. They know that the judgment of God for those who commit such things are worthy of death. But not only do they do them, they have pleasure in others that join along with them in these things. The woman in the garden saw that the tree was “pleasant” to the eyes…..as many take pleasure in these things.

Romans 1:28-32 KJV
(28) And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
(29) Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
(30) Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
(31) Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
(32) Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

Those who do such things listen to the false prophets (who falsely prophesy “peace”…you shall not surely die). The presence of these false prophets among the churches are in accordance to the working of Satan in order to deceive those that are perishing from off this earth because they do not receive the LOVE of the Truth and be saved.

2 Thessalonians 2:9-14 KJV
(9) Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,
(10) And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

They think that they are doing God “service” and love and practice THE lie not "a" lie...but THE LIE from the beginning. They think that they have "peace and safety" for doing such things. They have pleasure in their unrighteousness and take pleasure in others who also join along with them.

(11) And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
(12) That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
(13) But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth:
(14) Whereunto he called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Every branch that does not bear fruit is taken away from this earth as the wrath of God is revealed from heaven upon all men who hold down the truth in unrighteousness.

John 15:1-6 KJV
(1) I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.
(2) Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.
(3) Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.
(4) Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.
(5) I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.

We must have love for each other as He commanded us. We must bear good fruit. If a man does not abide in Him, he is cast forth as a branch and is withered and men gather them and they are cast into the fire and they are burned.

(6) If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.

Many see themselves as “wise” and let these men bring them into bondage and devour them and take of them.

2 Corinthians 11:19-20 KJV
(19) For ye suffer fools gladly, seeing ye yourselves are wise.
(20) For ye suffer, if a man bring you into bondage, if a man devour you, if a man take of you, if a man exalt himself, if a man smite you on the face.

We must have no fellowship with them. We must “awake” and arise from the “dead” and depart from the “dead” who are dead in trespasses and sins. NO FLESH is being saved in their presence as they are perishing from off the earth.

Ephesians 5:11-16 KJV
(11) And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.
(12) For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret.
(13) But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light.
(14) Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.
(15) See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise,
(16) Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.

We must abide in Him by keeping His commandment: that we love one another as He loved us. We cannot bear good fruit without doing so. We may profess we know God but if we do not DO His commandment, then we cannot truly be a good tree bearing good fruit. It does not go both ways.

John 15:4-12 KJV
(4) Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.
(5) I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.

If a man abides not in Him, he is cast forth as a branch and is withered and is gathered up by false prophets who come forth to deceive those who will not receive the love of the Truth and be saved. We are gathered up by false prophets in their divisions...in their churches...where there is no peace and no Word of Truth being taught.

(6) If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.
(7) If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.
(8) Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples.
(9) As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love.
(10) If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.
(11) These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.

We must not be deceived into turning from the holy commandment (that was delivered unto us by our Lord) by false prophets who come forth to speak great swelling words of vanity. They promise us "liberty"...freedom from this...and yet they are servants of corruption.

(12) This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.

Men…whose presence is in accordance to the working of Satan… come forth to deceive MANY with all power and signs and lying wonders and with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that are perishing from off this earth under the wrath of God BECAUSE they receive not the love of the Truth that they might be saved.

2 Thessalonians 2:9-12 KJV
(9) Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,
(10) And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

The false prophet comes forth to deceive and MANY believe THE lie….as they love and practice the lie.

(11) And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:

they believe the lie so that they might be condemned who believe not the Truth but have pleasure in unrighteousness.

(12) That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

They turn from the holy commandment (to love one another) that was delivered to them from our Lord as they listen to great swelling words of emptiness spoken by false prophets who successfully bring many into their church bondage of doctrines and commandments of men that do not save the mortal flesh of anyone.

2 Peter 2:18-22 KJV
(18) For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through much wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error.
(19) While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage.
(20) For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning.
(21) For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them.

It is happened unto them according to the true proverb: the dog is turned to his own vomit AGAIN and the sow that WAS WASHED returns to her wallowing in the mire.

(22) But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire.

If we do not abide in Him, we are cast forth as a branch and are withered. We return to the tilling of the ground (sowing after the flesh)...the wallowing in the mire from whence we were once washed.

Genesis 3:23 KJV
(23) Therefore the LORD God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from whence he was taken.

Just as many are escaping the pollutions of the world (coming forth out of “Egypt”) through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ (who commanded us to have love for one another), the “Amaleks” (meaning: people who lick….that is, flatter us with the tongue) come forth and meet us by the Way of righteousness in order to lead us astray and turn as away from the holy commandment that was delivered unto us .

When we become “faint and weary” …weary of well doing…they have the power to cut us off from the narrow path that leads to life and lead us down the broad way to the destruction of our mortal flesh. They cut us off from the Way of righteousness as many who know the Way listen to those false prophets who lead them astray from the Way...turning from the holy commandment that was delivered unto them to keep.

Deuteronomy 25:17-19 KJV
(17) Remember what Amalek did unto thee by the way, when ye were come forth out of Egypt;
(18) How he met thee by the way, and smote the hindmost of thee, even all that were feeble behind thee, when thou wast faint and weary; and he feared not God.
(19) Therefore it shall be, when the LORD thy God hath given thee rest from all thine enemies round about, in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance to possess it, that thou shalt blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven; thou shalt not forget it.

Do not be deceived by men. He that sows to his flesh shall of the mortal flesh reap decay.

Galatians 6:7-9 KJV
(7) Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.

But he that sows to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting as that Spirit shall give our MORTAL BODIES life NOW.

(8) For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.

If we grow “weary” in well doing, the “AMALEKS” come forth and speak good words and fair speeches (Amalek = the people who lick) in order to deceive the hearts of the simple into sitting together with them in their churches where they are being destroyed.

(9) And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

They...those who become weary in well doing and turn from the keeping of the holy commandment... are given over to a reprobate (rejected) mind to do those things which are not convenient.

The false prophet is the one that has the reprobate mind that they are given over to in order to be filled with all unrighteousness. They fall victim to those who come forth posing as ministers of righteousness and speak good words and fair speeches.

The false prophet’s presence is in accordance with the working of Satan in order to condemn those who do not receive the love of the Truth so that they may be saved. Their judgment does not sleep…their condemnation does not slumber but is ACTIVE as they are perishing from off this earth without the life of Jesus being made manifest. MANY are following the MANY false prophets down the broad way to destruction from off this earth as they perish.

Romans 1:28-32 KJV
(28) And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
(29) Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
(30) Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
(31) Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
(32) Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

These are men that are destitute of the Truth that suppose that gain is godliness. They know nothing and are men of “corrupt minds” of whom MANY fall victim to. MANY are given over to the “reprobate mind” of the false prophet that knows nothing and is reprobate concerning the faith.

1 Timothy 6:3-10 KJV
(3) If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness;
(4) He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings,
(5) Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself.
(6) But godliness with contentment is great gain.
(7) For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out.
(8) And having food and raiment let us be therewith content.
(9) But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.

We MUST do to others as we would have them do to us. This is the fulfilling of the law and the prophets. We are to fulfill the royal law: have love for each other.

Matthew 7:12-22 KJV
(12) Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.
(13) Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
(14) Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

If we do not do unto others as we would have them do unto us, then the false prophets have the power to come forth and lead us astray down the broad way that leads to the destruction of our mortal flesh from this earth. They are the spiritual "Amaleks"....the people who flatter with the tongue in order to get you to join them in their bondage where they can take from us.. MANY, MANY are going down that road to the grave in the destruction of their mortal flesh.

(15) Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
(16) Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?

A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. There is NO WAY for it to be both. we are hewn down and cast into the fire if we do not abide in Him and bring forth good fruit.

(17) Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
(18) A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
(19) Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
(20) Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
(21) Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
(22) Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?

Let no man deceive you. He that does righteousness is righteous. Men cannot judge others with their evil speaking of another because they do not keep their particular carnal commandment of man that they have wrested out of the Scriptures with their fleshly minds.

1 John 3:7-8 KJV
(7) Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
(8) He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.

Let no man beguile you of your reward (eternal life in the here and now) by teaching things he ought not be for filthy lucre’s sake.

The wrath of God comes upon the children of disobedience as NO MORTAL FLESH is being saved in the churches of men where this is prevalent. They are all perishing away to the grave without the life of Jesus being made manifest in the mortal flesh of those who sit together with them.

Titus 1:7-14 KJV
(7) For a bishop must be blameless, as the steward of God; not selfwilled, not soon angry, not given to wine, no striker, not given to filthy lucre;
(8) But a lover of hospitality, a lover of good men, sober, just, holy, temperate;
(9) Holding fast the faithful word as he hath been taught, that he may be able by sound doctrine both to exhort and to convince the gainsayers.
(10) For there are many unruly and vain talkers and deceivers, specially they of the circumcision:
(11) Whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for filthy lucre's sake.
(12) One of themselves, even a prophet of their own, said, The Cretians are alway liars, evil beasts, slow bellies.
(13) This witness is true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith;

Let no man bring you into bondage of keeping the doctrines and commandments of men….the handwriting of church dogmas which are against us….hostile. The commandments of men turn us from the Truth as men set aside the commandment of God (to have love for one another) in order to keep the commandments of men and judge each other over them. If we are a JUDGE, then we are NOT a DOER of the Law of Christ who commanded us to have love for one another.

(14) Not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of men, that turn from the truth.

Professing themselves to be “wise”, they become fools and change the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like unto corruptible man. MONEY is that image where we find the corruptible image of man upon. The moneychangers are exchanging the glory that is due God from this world for money’s sake. (Mark 11:17 And he taught, saying unto them, Is it not written, My house shall be called of ALL NATIONS the house of prayer? but ye have made it a den of thieves). They make merchandise of the sheep (fourfooted beasts) and are selling “peace, peace” (doves…birds) where there is none. They are minding earthly things….creeping things…as they swiftly go after these things: what to eat, what to drink, what to wear.

Romans 1:22-25 KJV
(22) Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
(23) And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.

God has given up the children of disobedience to defile their mortal flesh between themselves. We must NOT SIT together with them in their churches or we sin against our own mortal bodies as we become ONE FLESH with them and perish along with them to the grave.

(24) Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:

They change the Truth of God into THE lie and worship and serve the “creature” (the ordinance of men) more than the Creator. The woman in the garden at the beginning added her own carnal ordinance to God’s commandment….and then judged another over it. We must not serve the ordinance of men who ADD to the Word of God. There is only ONE LAWGIVER who is able to save and to destroy.

(25) Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.

Men ADD to the Word of God who commanded us to have love for one another. There is only ONE LAWGIVER. There is ONE WORD (ONE SAYING): you shall love your neighbor as yourself. We must DO this….with love serve one another ….and not bite each other over the commandments of men that destroy us by the keeping of them ….and people judge others with them.

Galatians 5:13-26 KJV
(13) For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another.
(14) For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
(15) But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another.
(16) This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.
(17) For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.

If we are led of the Spirit, then we are not under the law…..the law of sin and death.

(18) But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.
(19) Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
(20) Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,
(21) Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

We are free to eat of the trees of the garden….the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

(22) But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
(23) Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
(24) And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.
(25) If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.

We are to eat of the fruit of the Spirit…there is no law against it.

Genesis 2:16-17 KJV
(16) And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat:

But there is the law of sin and death. We are NOT to eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

(17) But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.

Those who are desirous of vain glory (desiring to seen as “wise”) eat of that tree when they use their mouths to judge others with over their added carnal commandment of man (i.e. neither shall you touch it). They speak evil of their brothers thinking that they are doing God “service” which is the lie of the serpent. We are not judges for God when doing so. We are not a DOER of the law of Christ who commanded us to have love for each other when we do these things.

They make the Word (the Saying: love your neighbor as yourself) of God of none effect through their tradition….the carnal commandment of men.

Mark 7:13 KJV
(13) Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye.

They add to the Word their own carnal commandment (neither shall you touch it) and judge others with it which is not DOING the Word of God. MANY serve the ordinance of man more than the Creator who commanded us to have love for one another. They add their own carnal commandments…the handwriting of ordinances…and serve that more than the Creator (diminishing His Word).

Deuteronomy 4:1-8 KJV
(1) Now therefore hearken, O Israel, unto the statutes and unto the judgments, which I teach you, for to do them, that ye may live, and go in and possess the land which the LORD God of your fathers giveth you.
(2) Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you.

If we live after the flesh, we shall die….our mortal bodies shall perish away from this earth. The wages of sin is death…death to the mortal body. Our spirits are saved but we suffer loss: the mortal body.

But if through the Spirit we deaden the deeds of the body, we shall live. If the Spirit of Him that raised up Jesus from the dead shall dwell in us, then He that raised up Christ from the dead shall also make alive our MORTAL (subject to death) BODIES…in this earth.

Our mortal bodies are already “dead” because of sin but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. It is His Spirit that will give our mortal bodies life in the here and now if we walk continuously after the Spirit. It is the true “spirit body” as it is His Spirit only that will give our mortal flesh life in the here and now.

The fleshly doctrines and commandments of men cannot give our mortal bodies life.

Keeping them does not save the flesh of anyone as evident by all that are perishing away in the churches of men. They use the commandments of men (engraved by the church “scribes”) to judge each other…speaking evil of others. Judging others is not keeping the law of Christ…and so we sin and our mortal bodies die. Partiality towards keeping His commandment does not count. We must not set aside the commandment of God in order to keep the traditions (transmissions) of men.

Romans 8:1-13 KJV
(1) There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
(2) For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.
(3) For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:
(4) That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
(5) For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.
(6) For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.
(7) Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.
(8) So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.
(9) But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
(10) And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.

It is about our MORTAL bodies here in this earth. Our mortal body is dead already because of sin (for all have sinned) but if we always live after the Spirit, then the life of Jesus shall be made manifest in our mortal flesh giving us His eternal life in the here and now. We must keep the “daily” sacrifice of our Lord in our bodies so that His life shall appear giving our mortal flesh His life.

Yet, the antichrist denies that Jesus IS COMING in the flesh…our mortal flesh. False prophets lead us astray from living after the Spirit so that His life is NEVER MADE MANIFEST in this earth. They come forth to deceive us and remove the keeping of the “daily” sacrifice out of our lives so that His life never appears.

(11) But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.
(12) Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.
(13) For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.

Who shall declare His generation? His life is being cut off out of the land (earth) of the living by wicked men among us in our churches.

He makes His grave with the wicked and with the rich in His DEATHS (plural in Hebrew). MANY are being destroyed by the false prophets who come to remove His life from ever appearing in this earth out of many lives by their doctrines and commandments of men that lead us away from the Truth. They do this for money.

Isaiah 53:8-9 KJV
(8) He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? for he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken.
(9) And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.

The “Amaleks” (meaning “people who lick”….that is, flatter us with their tongues) speak “great swelling words of emptiness” in order to cut us off from the Way of righteousness….from the Way that leads to His life in this earth.

They, themselves, have forsaken the RIGHT WAY (the Way of righteousness) and have gone astray…and they take MANY others with them down the wide path of destruction with their flattery….beguiling unstable souls who have grown “weary and faint” in well doing (having love for one another).

2 Peter 2:14-22 KJV
(14) Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with covetous practices; cursed children:

They have forsaken the right way and have gone astray. They love the wages of unrighteousness….getting paid for preaching so that they can get their earthly needs met (minding earthly things: what to eat, drink and wear). They rush off after these things in their covetousness.

(15) Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray, following the way of Balaam the son of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness;
(16) But was rebuked for his iniquity: the dumb ass speaking with man's voice forbad the madness of the prophet.

These are wells without water….without the Word of Truth being taught…as they have NO UNDERSTANDING of the Scriptures even though they profess themselves as wise and embodied with all of His knowledge and understanding. (Pro 25:14 Whoso boasteth himself of a false gift is like clouds and wind without rain.) Their words are empty (great swelling words of emptiness) of the Word of Truth as they have no understanding of the Scriptures (the mist of darkness is reserved for them).

(17) These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever.

The “Amaleks” use their tongues to speak great swelling words of emptiness (swelling, billowy clouds EMPTY of rain) as they allure those who are JUST escaping the pollutions of the world (“Egypt”) through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ who taught us to have love for one another as He loved us and gave Himself for us. This is the “daily” sacrifice that they come forth to take away out of our lives by empty words and false promises.

(18) For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through much wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error.
(19) While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage.
(20) For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning.
(21) For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them.
(22) But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire.

These ungodly men have crept in unawares as men “sleep”….as many forget to let brotherly love continue.

Jude 1:4-5 KJV
(4) For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.

Not everyone who escapes from the pollution of the world (Egypt) is being saved completely as MANY are having their mortal bodies being destroyed as they are being led astray from the Way of righteousness by those ungodly men among us.

Believing IS DOING HIS WORD: have love for one another as He loved us and gave Himself for us. We must DO THIS in remembrance of Him (the TRUE LORD’S SUPPER).

(5) I will therefore put you in remembrance, though ye once knew this, how that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed them that believed not.

MANY are being lead down the broad way to the destruction of the mortal flesh from off this earth by the false prophets who come forth posing as ministers of righteousness. They lead us astray from doing unto others as we would have them do unto us.

Matthew 7:12-15 KJV
(12) Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.
(13) Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
(14) Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
(15) Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

They speak flattering words and bring us into their church bondage and keep us there with their “principalities and powers”…their handwriting of dogmas (that the church “scribes” have written). The doctrines and commandments of men are contrary and against us getting along with each other. His righteousness is not being kept by keeping the doctrines and commandments of men.

Men keep the handwriting of dogmas and set aside the commandment of God to have love for one another. They serve and worship the ordinance (“creature”) more than the Creator.

By doing so, they are really worshipping the dragon as many use their ordinances to judge others (speak evil of). They profess themselves “WISE” and do this thing voluntarily because they are so “wise” as they think that they are doing God service in His name for such things....their wonderful works.

The handwriting of church ordinances is a device of Satan…a proxy… of which he has given his authority to and those who worship and serve the ordinance of men are really worshipping the dragon and are perishing. They let sin rule over their mortal bodies as they judge others using the device of Satan (the handwriting of ordinances) and they perish as the wages of sin is death.

Romans 1:22-25 KJV
(22) Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
(23) And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
(24) Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
(25) Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.

As they profess themselves “wise” and choose to keep their church “scribes” handwriting of ordinances more than the commandment of God (who created us to have love for one another), they are choosing death rather than life.

Satan has the power of death and many are deceived into keeping the traditions of men (Satan savors the things of men) and are perishing (as they do not receive the love of the Truth and be saved) rather than keep the commandment of God that leads to life.

Jeremiah 8:3-15 KJV
(3) And death shall be chosen rather than life by all the residue of them that remain of this evil family, which remain in all the places whither I have driven them, saith the LORD of hosts.
(4) Moreover thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith the LORD; Shall they fall, and not arise? shall he turn away, and not return?
(5) Why then is this people of Jerusalem slidden back by a perpetual backsliding? they hold fast deceit, they refuse to return.
(6) I hearkened and heard, but they spake not aright: no man repented him of his wickedness, saying, What have I done? every one turned to his course, as the horse rusheth into the battle.

Yet, the birds in the air are wiser than those who profess themselves “wise”. His people do not know that the judgment of the LORD is upon them for these things.

(7) Yea, the stork in the heaven knoweth her appointed times; and the turtle and the crane and the swallow observe the time of their coming; but my people know not the judgment of the LORD.

How can they say “WE ARE WISE and the law of the LORD is with us”?

The church scribe’s handwriting of church ordinances is deceit…a sham. It does nothing to save our mortal flesh and those who are keeping them are perishing under the wrath of God that comes upon the children of disobedience as they set aside His Law (to have love for one another) in order to keep the commandments of men that were written by the “scribes” who have wrested them out of the Scriptures with their fleshly minds. They desire to be teachers of the Law and yet have no understanding of the things that they teach and affirm of.

(8) How do ye say, We are wise, and the law of the LORD is with us? Lo, certainly in vain made he it; the pen of the scribes is in vain.

Those who profess themselves “wise” are taken in by the false prophets. They are caught and captured by them as they reject the Word of the LORD ….who commanded us to have love for one another. They turn from the Holy Commandment to have love for one another and are brought into bondage by those who come forth posing as ministers of righteousness. Are those who reject the commandment of the Lord in order to keep the commandments of men really so "wise"?

(9) The wise men are ashamed, they are dismayed and taken: lo, they have rejected the word of the LORD; and what wisdom is in them?
(10) Therefore will I give their wives unto others, and their fields to them that shall inherit them: for every one from the least even unto the greatest is given to covetousness, from the prophet even unto the priest every one dealeth falsely.

The false prophets say “peace, peace” when there is NO PEACE in their churches as no good comes to those who gather together with them. They “heal” the deadly stroke by saying “peace, peace”.

(11) For they have healed the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace.
(12) Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? nay, they were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush: therefore shall they fall among them that fall: in the time of their visitation they shall be cast down, saith the LORD.
(13) I will surely consume them, saith the LORD: there shall be no grapes on the vine, nor figs on the fig tree, and the leaf shall fade; and the things that I have given them shall pass away from them.
(14) Why do we sit still? assemble yourselves, and let us enter into the defenced cities, and let us be silent there: for the LORD our God hath put us to silence, and given us water of gall to drink, because we have sinned against the LORD.
(15) We looked for peace, but no good came; and for a time of health, and behold trouble!

MANY who are just escaping from “Egypt”….the pollutions of the world…are being overthrown in the wilderness so to speak.

We are living in a time of many pitfalls for those who are just escaping as there are MANY false Christs (false church gatherings supposedly in His name…His authority) and MANY false prophets come forth to deceive us into sitting with them in their churches and willingly submit to their handwriting of church ordinances (the basis for their false gatherings) where they can take from us.

If we become faint and weary in well doing, then we will be led astray away from the Way of righteousness. BELIEVING IS DOING. If we leave off doing His Word, then we do not truly believe and fall victim to the “wild animals” in the “desert”.

Those who will not believe die in the “wilderness” under the judgment of God of which many have no understanding of. Many do not know why they are stumbling to the grave as they have no understanding.

Again, true believing is DOING His Saying: to have love for one another….always. Faith alone is DEAD.

1 Corinthians 10:1-12 KJV
(1) Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea;
(2) And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea;
(3) And did all eat the same spiritual meat;
(4) And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.

Without true faith (good works completes our faith), we cannot please God. (Jas 2:22 You see how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made complete?) Faith MUST BE COMPLETED with good works. Faith alone is dead.

(5) But with many of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness.

We also are being overthrown …as we perish from off this earth…if we follow the example of those who without true faith lusted after evil things.

(6) Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted.

Covetousness = idolatry.

(7) Neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.

Looking back at the “gold calf”…

Aaron and Hur represent faith AND good works. “Aaron” means “mountain”(faith moves mountains). “Hur” means “white linen” which we know stands for the righteous acts of the saints. “Aaron and Hur” are with us….righteous acts completes our faith. We have faith and good words as we are to hope for the appearing of the life of Jesus in our mortal flesh…in this earthly tabernacle. We are to wait on the Lord with patience, hope, faith, good works.

Exodus 24:13-14 KJV
(13) And Moses rose up, and his minister Joshua: and Moses went up into the mount of God.
(14) And he said unto the elders, Tarry ye here for us, until we come again unto you: and, behold, Aaron and Hur are with you: if any man have any matters to do, let him come unto them.

Through faith (which is ACTIVE), we uphold the Law (Moses). We establish the royal law when we DO it.

Romans 3:31 KJV
(31) Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law.

The “Amaleks” cannot then prevail against us if we have active faith….as Aaron (faith) and Hur (white linen….the righteous acts) kept up Moses’s hands.

Exodus 17:10-14 KJV
(10) So Joshua did as Moses had said to him, and fought with Amalek: and Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill.
(11) And it came to pass, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed: and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed.
(12) But Moses' hands were heavy; and they took a stone, and put it under him, and he sat thereon; and Aaron and Hur stayed up his hands, the one on the one side, and the other on the other side; and his hands were steady until the going down of the sun.

The “edge of the sword” is the living Word of God spoken to “discomfit Amalek” and his people...

(13) And Joshua discomfited Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword.
(14) And the LORD said unto Moses, Write this for a memorial in a book, and rehearse it in the ears of Joshua: for I will utterly put out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven.

But what happens when “Hur” (the righteous acts of the saints) goes missing during the gold calf incident in the desert?

Aaron AND Hur were left in charge while Moses and Joshua were away. Yet, only Aaron was spoken of in regards to the gold calf and the events that happened afterwards.

The people were naked…without good works…..and the outside world spoke evil unto their shame. We see this going on right now in the world as the world speaks evil of His people who have no righteous acts as they are “naked”….having faith alone without righteous acts.

Exodus 32:24-25 KJV
(24) And I said unto them, Whosoever hath any gold, let them break it off. So they gave it me: then I cast it into the fire, and there came out this calf.
(25) And when Moses saw that the people were naked; (for Aaron had made them naked unto their shame among their enemies

Many break off the “golden earrings” which are in their ears.

Exodus 32:1-3 KJV
(1) And when the people saw that Moses delayed to come down out of the mount, the people gathered themselves together unto Aaron, and said unto him, Up, make us gods, which shall go before us; for as for this Moses, the man that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him.
(2) And Aaron said unto them, Break off the golden earrings, which are in the ears of your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring them unto me.
(3) And all the people brake off the golden earrings which were in their ears, and brought them unto Aaron.

The “golden earrings” are broken off when people do not listen with an obedient…attentive… ear to the wise reprover.

Proverbs 25:12 KJV
(12) As an earring of gold, and an ornament of fine gold, so is a wise reprover upon an obedient ear.

Professing themselves as "wise"....many break off their gold earrings when they do not endure sound doctrine and after their own lusts heap to themselves teachers who teach what they want to hear. The “itching ears” are because they have broken off the hearing of the Word….the sound doctrine….in order to turn their ears from the Truth and be turned to “fables” as preached by the false prophets. True hearing is DOING His Word……His Holy Commandment.

It would have been better not to have known the Way of righteousness rather than after knowing it, turn from the Holy Commandment that was delivered to them to keep.

2 Timothy 4:2-4 KJV
(2) Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.
(3) For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
(4) And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.

Many do not hear the “Law of the LORD”….to have love for one another…as they break off the gold earrings out of their ears. They have turned away from the hearing.

We must be DOERS of the Word and not hearers only. DOING is actively hearing. (Jas 1:22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves).

Being a hearer only and not a doer is truly not hearing the law of the Lord and is not believing.

Isaiah 30:8-15 KJV
(8) Now go, write it before them in a table, and note it in a book, that it may be for the time to come for ever and ever:
(9) That this is a rebellious people, lying children, children that will not hear the law of the LORD:

We are living in the off season where many do not want to hear the Word of Truth as they do not DO it. They turn their ears from the Truth unto deceit that their false prophets preach to their itching ears.

(10) Which say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets, Prophesy not unto us right things, speak unto us smooth things, prophesy deceits:
(11) Get you out of the way, turn aside out of the path, cause the Holy One of Israel to cease from before us.
(12) Wherefore thus saith the Holy One of Israel, Because ye despise this word, and trust in oppression and perverseness, and stay thereon:
(13) Therefore this iniquity shall be to you as a breach ready to fall, swelling out in a high wall, whose breaking cometh suddenly at an instant.
(14) And he shall break it as the breaking of the potters' vessel that is broken in pieces; he shall not spare: so that there shall not be found in the bursting of it a sherd to take fire from the hearth, or to take water withal out of the pit.
(15) For thus saith the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel; In returning and rest shall ye be saved; in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength: and ye would not.

They trust in the “shadow of Egypt”…their handwriting of church dogmas that are patterned (shadowed) after the rudiments of the world….Egypt. They cover themselves with the works of their church doctrines and commandments and speak evil of others using them as a basis for doing so rather than DOING His Word….which would be sowing after the Spirit. They add sin to sin by disregarding His counsel and receive the counsel of men with their handwriting of church dogmas.

Isaiah 30:1-7 KJV
(1) Woe to the rebellious children, saith the LORD, that take counsel, but not of me; and that cover with a covering, but not of my spirit, that they may add sin to sin:
(2) That walk to go down into Egypt, and have not asked at my mouth; to strengthen themselves in the strength of Pharaoh, and to trust in the shadow of Egypt!

They harden their hearts (the strength of Pharaoh) to the Word of Truth to their own shame and trust in their church handwriting of dogmas….trusting in the shadow of Egypt….being subject to ordinances of men (rudiments of the world) in their churches rather than living after His Spirit. They…in the hardness of their hearts…serve the handwriting of church ordinances more than the Creator who gives them over.

(3) Therefore shall the strength of Pharaoh be your shame, and the trust in the shadow of Egypt your confusion.
(4) For his princes were at Zoan, and his ambassadors came to Hanes.
(5) They were all ashamed of a people that could not profit them, nor be an help nor profit, but a shame, and also a reproach.

Many subject themselves to man’s slavery….to the yoke of bondage…which brings them trouble and anguish as there are many false prophets in the world today. They give their wealth to the false prophets who do not profit them.

(6) The burden of the beasts of the south: into the land of trouble and anguish, from whence come the young and old lion, the viper and fiery flying serpent, they will carry their riches upon the shoulders of young asses, and their treasures upon the bunches of camels, to a people that shall not profit them.
(7) For the Egyptians shall help in vain, and to no purpose: therefore have I cried concerning this, Their strength is to sit still.

Let us stand fast in the liberty wherewith Christ has made us free and not be entangled again with the yoke of bondage by the “will worship” of submitting ourselves to the church ordinances of men.

Galatians 5:1 KJV
(1) Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.

Let NO MAN judge you according to his handwriting of church ordinances that he has engraved with his fleshly mind in order for you to stay in his bondage. Men wrest the Scriptures to their own destruction as they take the words of Moses and the Prophets (the “angels”) in their fleshly minds and engrave their church ordinances. They are beguiling many of their reward...the eternal life of Jesus that is to be made manifest in our mortal flesh in this earth so that others may see and glorify God in heaven.

Colossians 2:16-23 KJV
(16) Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days:
(17) Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.
(18) Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,
(19) And not holding the Head, from which all the body by joints and bands having nourishment ministered, and knit together, increaseth with the increase of God.

If we are dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world (Egypt), then why are we subjecting ourselves to man’s church ordinances which do not save the flesh of anyone as all are perishing with the using of them?

(20) Wherefore if ye be dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, are ye subject to ordinances,
(21) (Touch not; taste not; handle not;
(22) Which all are to perish with the using after the commandments and doctrines of men?
(23) Which things have indeed a shew of wisdom in will worship, and humility, and neglecting of the body; not in any honour to the satisfying of the flesh.

When people stop hearing His Word (true hearing is DOING), they are breaking off the gold earrings in their ears.

Exodus 32:2-8 KJV
(2) And Aaron said unto them, Break off the golden earrings, which are in the ears of your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring them unto me.

Faith alone is not enough. We must be DOERS of the Word. Let us not be a forgetful hearer and be deceived.

(3) And all the people brake off the golden earrings which were in their ears, and brought them unto Aaron.

Professing themselves “wise” (the gold given), they willingly subject themselves to the engraving of church ordinances and serve them. They voluntarily are brought under the yoke of church bondage (the gold calf) because they see themselves as “wise” .

They think that they are serving God by the keeping of the engraved handwriting of ordinances (the molten calf) that are patterned after the rudiments of the world (Egypt).

(4) And he received them at their hand, and fashioned it with a graving tool, after he had made it a molten calf: and they said, These be thy gods, O Israel, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.

They go to “church” on certain days where men keep the handwriting of the ordinances of men as sacred. They proclaim it a feast to the LORD when it is really just pure idolatry.

(5) And when Aaron saw it, he built an altar before it; and Aaron made proclamation, and said, To morrow is a feast to the LORD.

They offer burnt offerings as they speak evil of others while serving the handwriting of church dogmas. They set aside the commandment of God (to have love for one another) in order to keep their ordinances and speak evil of others (burnt offerings) thinking that they are doing God service for doing their wonderful works supposedly in His name.

They bring “peace offerings”….they pay money. They make an image to the beast by giving money to their church in support of the handwriting of ordinances. The false prophets cry “peace” to those who put food in their mouths. The people who “sit” eat and drink and rejoice as they are getting their earthly needs met by their getting paid to preach. Covetousness = idolatry.

(6) And they rose up early on the morrow, and offered burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings; and the people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.
(7) And the LORD said unto Moses, Go, get thee down; for thy people, which thou broughtest out of the land of Egypt, have corrupted themselves:

They turn aside quickly out of the Way of righteousness (we are commanded of the Lord to have love for one another) and worship and serve the ordinance of men (the molten calf patterned after the rudiments of the world ...Egypt) more than the Lord.

(8) They have turned aside quickly out of the way which I commanded them: they have made them a molten calf, and have worshipped it, and have sacrificed thereunto, and said, These be thy gods, O Israel, which have brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.

They change the truth of God into THE lie and worship and serve the “creature” …the ordinance of man patterned after the rudiments of the world…more than the Creator. They add to the Word and serve and worship the added carnal commandment (the molten image) and call it a feast to the Lord.

Romans 1:22-25 KJV
(22) Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
(23) And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
(24) Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
(25) Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.

Amos 5:21-27 KJV
(21) I hate, I despise your feast days, and I will not smell in your solemn assemblies.
(22) Though ye offer me burnt offerings and your meat offerings, I will not accept them: neither will I regard the peace offerings of your fat beasts.
(23) Take thou away from me the noise of thy songs; for I will not hear the melody of thy viols.
(24) But let judgment run down as waters, and righteousness as a mighty stream.
(25) Have ye offered unto me sacrifices and offerings in the wilderness forty years, O house of Israel?
(26) But ye have borne the tabernacle of your Moloch and Chiun your images, the star of your god, which ye made to yourselves.
(27) Therefore will I cause you to go into captivity beyond Damascus, saith the LORD, whose name is The God of hosts.

The spiritual “Amalekites” (meaning: people who lick)….those who flatter with their tongue by speaking good words and fair speeches…love to have the preeminence among us. They love to be first. They are the heads of the people in the churches of men. Yet, their end is the destruction of their mortal flesh as they perish from this earth….

Numbers 24:20 KJV
(20) And when he looked on Amalek, he took up his parable, and said, Amalek was the first of the nations; but his latter end shall be that he perish for ever.

…..because they preach things that they ought not be (the doctrines and commandments of men) for money’s sake. Their “god” is their belly as they preach for money in order to get their earthly needs (what to eat, drink and what to wear) met….the very same things that the nations of the world constantly seek after. They covet after money from their congregations and cut off the life of Jesus from ever appearing in the mortal flesh of those they are deceiving. They do not inherit the kingdom of God as they pass away from this earth without the life of Jesus that was supposed to appear in their mortal flesh giving them His eternal life in this earth. The kingdom of God is eternal...not a dying one.

Instead of preaching for a paycheck, we are to be followers together of Paul who worked with his own hands (tentmaker) in order to meet his own necessities.

Philippians 3:17-19 KJV
(17) Brethren, be followers together of me, and mark them which walk so as ye have us for an ensample.

MANY do not walk according to the example set by the true apostles of Christ who worked with their hands night and day so as not to be chargeable to any. They are the enemies of the cross of Christ who died for us already so that we might have His eternal, heavenly life NOW in this earth. MANY are perishing from off this earth because of the false apostles…the false prophets….the spiritual Amalekites.

(18) (For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ:

The spiritual “Amalekites” love to be first among us but their end is destruction of the mortal flesh as they pass away from this earth under the wrath of God that comes upon the children of disobedience.

(19) Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.)

If a man desires to be first, the same shall be last of all and servant of all. He must work with his own hands to support his own necessities in life so that he may truly give the needed Word of truth to the “poor”.

Mark 9:33-35 KJV
(33) And he came to Capernaum: and being in the house he asked them, What was it that ye disputed among yourselves by the way?
(34) But they held their peace: for by the way they had disputed among themselves, who should be the greatest.
(35) And he sat down, and called the twelve, and saith unto them, If any man desire to be first, the same shall be last of all, and servant of all.

We must flee from idolatry…the coveting after money….the preaching for money’s sake.

1 Corinthians 10:5-12 KJV
(5) But with many of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness.
(6) Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted.
(7) Neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.

We must flee “fornication”. We must not sit together with those who are preaching themselves for money’s sake. We must not commit “fornication” by attaching ourselves to their churches where they preach for money’s sake the doctrines and commandments of men.

(8) Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand.
(9) Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed of serpents.
(10) Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed of the destroyer.
(11) Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come.
(12) Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.

Idolaters shall not inherit the kingdom of God as they pass away from this earth under the wrath of God as their mortal flesh is being destroyed. Their judgment and their condemnation are not slumbering but are active as NO FLESH is being saved among them. They are suffering loss as they Day of their deaths manifest their works. Be NOT DECEIVED for men are perishing off this earth because of their works which are not passing the test. Let us not keep company with them....the committing of "fornication".

1 Corinthians 6:9-20 KJV
(9) Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,
(10) Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
(11) And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.
(12) All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.
(13) Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but God shall destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.
(14) And God hath both raised up the Lord, and will also raise up us by his own power.

We must NOT be attached to them as we become ONE FLESH with them when we sit together with them in their churches where NO FLESH is being saved. We perish along with them as those who are destroying us are being destroyed themselves.

(15) Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid.
(16) What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh.
(17) But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.

If we sit together with them, then we are committing “fornication” and are sinning against our own mortal bodies for we are being destroyed with them by participating with them in their idolatry.

(18) Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.

Our mortal body is the temple of the Holy Spirit which is in us. We must glorify God in our mortal body by not sitting together with them. We are bought with a price. We must come out from among them and be separate. Being joined together with them is the committing of “fornication”.

(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?
(20) For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.

What agreement has the temple of God with idols? Our mortal body is the temple of the living God as His Spirit resides in us. We must not be unequally yoked together with the unbelievers (they call themselves “believers” and yet forsake the Way of righteousness). They profess that they know God but deny Him with their abominable works.

2 Corinthians 6:14-18 KJV
(14) Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?
(15) And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?
(16) And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

We MUST come out from among them and be separate….

(17) Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you,
(18) And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.

We must not keep company (thereby committing "fornication") with him that is called a “brother” but is an idolater….being covetous.

1 Corinthians 5:
(9) I wrote unto you in an epistle not to company with fornicators:
(10) Yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs go out of the world.

We must not eat with them in our “feast” together with other TRUE believers. It takes one covetous brother among us to bring us trouble.

(11) But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat.

What have we to do with judging those on the outside world? God judges them. We must “judge” those we are keeping company with them by not keeping company with those who are covetous…preaching for money. When we separate from their company, that is a “judgement”. We admonish them as brothers and not sit together with them. We must put away that wicked person.

(12) For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? do not ye judge them that are within?
(13) But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.

There is an accursed thing in the midst of us….the covetous brother who preaches for money the doctrines and commandments of men. We cannot stand before our enemies (standing by having eternal life in this earth) until we take away the accursed thing from among us.

Joshua 7:13-26 KJV
(13) Up, sanctify the people, and say, Sanctify yourselves against to morrow: for thus saith the LORD God of Israel, There is an accursed thing in the midst of thee, O Israel: thou canst not stand before thine enemies, until ye take away the accursed thing from among you.
(14) In the morning therefore ye shall be brought according to your tribes: and it shall be, that the tribe which the LORD taketh shall come according to the families thereof; and the family which the LORD shall take shall come by households; and the household which the LORD shall take shall come man by man.
(15) And it shall be, that he that is taken with the accursed thing shall be burnt with fire, he and all that he hath: because he hath transgressed the covenant of the LORD, and because he hath wrought folly in Israel.
(16) So Joshua rose up early in the morning, and brought Israel by their tribes; and the tribe of Judah was taken:
(17) And he brought the family of Judah; and he took the family of the Zarhites: and he brought the family of the Zarhites man by man; and Zabdi was taken:

“Achan” means “to trouble”. He preaches for "gifts" the meaning of "Zabdi". He poses as a minister of light (Zerah = rising of light) by preaching for doctrines the commandments of men.

(18) And he brought his household man by man; and Achan, the son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, was taken.
(19) And Joshua said unto Achan, My son, give, I pray thee, glory to the LORD God of Israel, and make confession unto him; and tell me now what thou hast done; hide it not from me.
(20) And Achan answered Joshua, and said, Indeed I have sinned against the LORD God of Israel, and thus and thus have I done:

He secretly covets after money and speaks goodly words and fair speeches in order to get it. He is minding earthly things. For neither at any time used we flattering words as ye know, nor a cloke of covetousness (a goodly Babylonish garment); God is witness.

(21) When I saw among the spoils a goodly Babylonish garment, and two hundred shekels of silver, and a wedge of gold of fifty shekels weight, then I coveted them, and took them; and, behold, they are hid in the earth in the midst of my tent, and the silver under it.
(22) So Joshua sent messengers, and they ran unto the tent; and, behold, it was hid in his tent, and the silver under it.
(23) And they took them out of the midst of the tent, and brought them unto Joshua, and unto all the children of Israel, and laid them out before the LORD.
(24) And Joshua, and all Israel with him, took Achan the son of Zerah, and the silver, and the garment, and the wedge of gold, and his sons, and his daughters, and his oxen, and his asses, and his sheep, and his tent, and all that he had: and they brought them unto the valley of Achor.

We must separate from their company for when we are together with them, we are suffering troubles.

(25) And Joshua said, Why hast thou troubled us? the LORD shall trouble thee this day. And all Israel stoned him with stones, and burned them with fire, after they had stoned them with stones.

The valley of Achor (trouble) is still with us this day in the open mouths (the valley) of those who are preaching using feigned words in their covetousness.

And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.

Let us remember this example (a great heap of stones as a memorial) of what happened at the valley of Achor to not keep company with them and separate ourselves from them.

(26) And they raised over him a great heap of stones unto this day. So the LORD turned from the fierceness of his anger. Wherefore the name of that place was called, The valley of Achor, unto this day.

God judges those in the outside world. Why are so many in the churches of men judging those on the outside when they should be looking at whom they are sitting together with?

Exodus 12: KJV
(11) And thus shall ye eat it; with your loins girded, your shoes on your feet, and your staff in your hand; and ye shall eat it in haste: it is the LORD'S Passover.

God judges those on the outside world (Egypt). He smites all the firstborn in the land of “Egypt”.

(12) For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night, and will smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: I am the LORD.

The “firstborn” is the natural body…the mortal body.

1 Corinthians 15:46-49 KJV
(46) Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual.
(47) The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven.

Those who are “earthy” and not living after the heavenly things (love, peace, joy, gentleness, patience, etc) are being judged as their mortal flesh is decaying away to the grave. They are actively perishing as the world and its lusts are perishing away under the judgment of God as we speak. The outside world lives life “under the sun” of God’s wrath as they “dwell on the earth”…dwell on things on this earth and are not living consistently according to the heavenly things (love, peace, joy, patience, gentleness, etc) above. We are to put on the “heavenly man”…Christ Jesus…and live the heavenly life in this earth. Heaven meets earth so to speak.

(48) As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.

As we bear the image of the earthy, we must also bear the image of the heavenly by putting on Christ NOW so that we might have His eternal life NOW in this earthen vessel so that the world may see what it truly means to DO His will. This is a PRESENT thing NOW.

(49) And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.

God strikes the “firstborn” of Egypt. He judges those on the outside world who live after the flesh….sowing according to the earthly wisdom.

But we are to put on Christ by having love for one another as He loved us and gave Himself for us. God presented Christ as a sacrifice of atonement, through the shedding of his blood--to be received by faith. He did this to demonstrate His righteousness, because in his forbearance He had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished.

If we keep the “daily” sacrifice of our Lord by ALWAYS bearing about in the mortal body the dying of the Lord Jesus, then His life shall also be made manifest (appear, shine) in our mortal body…our MORTAL FLESH…this earthen vessel. We live the heavenly life of Jesus who is undefiled and eternal right here in this earth. We are to be His living infallible proofs that He is alive now and forevermore as we reflect His life as a mirror to this dark and dying world.

2 Corinthians 4:9-11 KJV
(9) Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed;
(10) Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body.
(11) For we which live are alway delivered unto death for Jesus' sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh.

Our “house” is the mortal body that He passes over for judgment as He strikes the mortal bodies of those of the outside world (Egypt). The blood of the Lord shall be unto us an appearing sign (a token) upon our “house” as His life appears in our mortal flesh.

Exodus 12:
(13) And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt.

Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

Let us keep the “daily” sacrifice of our Lord in our “house”…our mortal body. Let us remember to keep it always…always bearing about in the body (the house) the dying of our Lord (the blood of the covenant of brotherly love). It is an ordinance forever….that is, for eternal life. If we believe and keep it, then His eternal life shall appear.

(14) And this day shall be unto you for a memorial; and ye shall keep it a feast to the LORD throughout your generations; ye shall keep it a feast by an ordinance for ever.

We must not keep company with those who are called “brothers” but are covetous…preaching for money. We must not be “puffed up” …glorying in the man who does this thing among us as that soul shall be cut off from Israel. We must put that wicked person among us away. We must purge out the old leaven.

And ye are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he that hath done this deed might be taken away from among you.

He has the Father’s wife….the church….as that man makes merchandise of His people by preaching flattering words in order to get money for his earthly needs to be met.

(15) Seven days shall ye eat unleavened bread; even the first day ye shall put away leaven out of your houses: for whosoever eateth leavened bread from the first day until the seventh day, that soul shall be cut off from Israel.

No person should be “working” in our gatherings. Every man should be working with his own hands outside the keeping of the feast in order to eat his own bread just as the true apostles of Christ showed us who worked night and day in order to eat their own bread.

I wrote unto you in an epistle not to company with fornicators: Yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs go out of the world. But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat.

We must work with our own hands in order to eat our own bread.

(16) And in the first day there shall be an holy convocation, and in the seventh day there shall be an holy convocation to you; no manner of work shall be done in them, save that which every man must eat, that only may be done of you.
(17) And ye shall observe the feast of unleavened bread; for in this selfsame day have I brought your armies out of the land of Egypt: therefore shall ye observe this day in your generations by an ordinance for ever.
(18) In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month at even, ye shall eat unleavened bread, until the one and twentieth day of the month at even.

We must not keep company with the man who is called a “brother” but is covetous. Our "habitations" are our mortal bodies.

(19) Seven days shall there be no leaven found in your houses: for whosoever eateth that which is leavened, even that soul shall be cut off from the congregation of Israel, whether he be a stranger, or born in the land.
(20) Ye shall eat nothing leavened; in all your habitations shall ye eat unleavened bread.
(21) Then Moses called for all the elders of Israel, and said unto them, Draw out and take you a lamb according to your families, and kill the passover.

We must cleanse our hands in the blood of the Lord (the 2 side posts) and purify our hearts (strike the lintel) and be afflicted and mourn and weep.

Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded.
Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness.

And they shall eat the flesh in that night, roast with fire, and unleavened bread; and with bitter herbs they shall eat it. (be afflicted and mourn and weep ….letting our laughter be turned to mourning and our joy to heaviness).

None of us shall go out at the door of the house until morning. That is, judge the outside world until the appointed time (until the “morning”). What have we to do with judging those on the outside? God judges the world (Egypt).

(22) And ye shall take a bunch of hyssop, and dip it in the blood that is in the bason, and strike the lintel and the two side posts with the blood that is in the bason; and none of you shall go out at the door of his house until the morning.

We must keep the “daily” sacrifice of our Lord so that He will not let the “destroyer” (meaning “to decay”) to come in to our house (mortal body) to smite us. Death shall pass over us as we keep the “daily” sacrifice of our Lord in our mortal body.

(23) For the LORD will pass through to smite the Egyptians; and when he seeth the blood upon the lintel, and on the two side posts, the LORD will pass over the door, and will not suffer the destroyer to come in unto your houses to smite you.
(24) And ye shall observe this thing for an ordinance to thee and to thy sons for ever.

We, according to His promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwells righteousness. Wherefore, beloved, seeing that you look for such things, be diligent that you may be found of Him in peace, without spot, and blameless.

It will be the same terra firma (literal earth) but a new attitude will be prevalent among all men as they live according to the commandment of God to have love for one another. We shall inherit this earth as He will give it to us. We shall live to see this as we shall have the eternal life of our Lord as the wicked shall perish from off this earth.

(25) And it shall come to pass, when ye be come to the land which the LORD will give you, according as he hath promised, that ye shall keep this service.
(26) And it shall come to pass, when your children shall say unto you, What mean ye by this service?

If we keep the ordinance of eternal life, then our mortal bodies shall be delivered as this world actively perishes away. It is already perishing away under the wrath of God as the current heavens and the earth which are NOW are actively stored with fire for the judgment and destruction of ungodly men. This is a “now thing” as men perish away “under the sun” of God’s wrath. He is patient though not wanting any to perish from off this earth but all to come to repentance.

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.

We must keep the dying of our Lord (the sacrifice of the LORD'S Passover...Christ) in the "house" of our mortal body so that we may have His eternal life....as our houses are delivered from the destruction that is happening to all of those in the outside world.

(27) That ye shall say, It is the sacrifice of the LORD'S passover, who passed over the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt, when he smote the Egyptians, and delivered our houses. And the people bowed the head and worshipped.
(28) And the children of Israel went away, and did as the LORD had commanded Moses and Aaron, so did they.

ALL are under sin. ALL have fallen short of the glory of God. The deceitfulness of sin hardens the heart (Pharaoh) and sin rules over all (Pharaoh sits on the throne). Sin has dominion over all so that God can show us His mercy and save us. All are captives of sin in the darkness of the “dungeon” of not understanding. ALL are servants …beasts…of sin….like cattle.

(29) And it came to pass, that at midnight the LORD smote all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh that sat on his throne unto the firstborn of the captive that was in the dungeon; and all the firstborn of cattle.

There is not a “house” where there is not one that is dead. We are all “dead” in sin as our mortal bodies are dead because of sin. The wages of sin is death…death to the mortal body.

(30) And Pharaoh rose up in the night, he, and all his servants, and all the Egyptians; and there was a great cry in Egypt; for there was not a house where there was not one dead.

We must not be joined with them in their churches where men are preaching things that they ought not (the doctrines and commandments of men) for money’s sake. They are suffering loss: the loss of the mortal body and will not inherit the kingdom of God as they perish from off this earth.

1 Corinthians 3:11-18 KJV
(11) For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

They preach for money: gold, silver, precious stones…and preach the doctrines and commandments of men (wood, hay stubble) which do not save the mortal flesh of any one for they burn up. They perish by the using of the doctrines and commandments of men.

(12) Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble;

Their work is being made manifest for the Day declares it as they perish from off this earth under the wrath of God that tries every man’s work of what sort it is. The Day of the Lord comes upon each of those who are disobedient as He takes them away from this earth….the day of their death when the Lord comes to take them home. Woe unto those who desire to see the Day of the Lord.

(13) Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is.

The reward is eternal life in this earth.

(14) If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward.

Those who are burned up suffer the loss of the mortal body. Their spirit is saved but they suffer loss.

(15) If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.

If any defile the temple of God with his works (preaching for money the doctrines and commandments of men), then he is destroyed as the mortal body (the temple of God) is destroyed from off this earth under the fire of the wrath of God. If we sit together with them, we are being destroyed also in the “fornication” as we are attached to them and become ONE FLESH with them.

(16) Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
(17) If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.

Let no man deceive himself. Let him become a “fool” so that he may be wise.

(18) Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise.

For a “fool” who will shut his lips from speaking (sparing his words) at the hearing of the Word of Truth shall be counted as wise….

Proverbs 17:27-28 KJV
(27) He that hath knowledge spareth his words: and a man of understanding is of an excellent spirit.
(28) Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise: and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed a man of understanding.

Let us not hate those who preach the Word of truth and rebuke us at the gate.

Amos 5:10-20 KJV
(10) They hate him that rebuketh in the gate, and they abhor him that speaketh uprightly.

Men preach for money and tread upon the poor. They have built houses of hewn stone….the handwriting of church dogmas...which do not save those who are keeping them as they suffer loss.

(11) Forasmuch therefore as your treading is upon the poor, and ye take from him burdens of wheat: ye have built houses of hewn stone, but ye shall not dwell in them; ye have planted pleasant vineyards, but ye shall not drink wine of them.

Men who preach the doctrines and commandments of men for money’s sake turn aside the poor from their right: the manifestation of the life of Jesus is being prevented from appearing in their mortal flesh by the deceptive words of those who are leading them astray from the keeping of the “daily” sacrifice of our Lord that leads to life.

(12) For I know your manifold transgressions and your mighty sins: they afflict the just, they take a bribe, and they turn aside the poor in the gate from their right.

If any man among you seems to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise. A “fool” who keeps silent shall be counted as wise.

(13) Therefore the prudent shall keep silence in that time; for it is an evil time.
(14) Seek good, and not evil, that ye may live: and so the LORD, the God of hosts, shall be with you, as ye have spoken.
(15) Hate the evil, and love the good, and establish judgment in the gate: it may be that the LORD God of hosts will be gracious unto the remnant of Joseph.
(16) Therefore the LORD, the God of hosts, the Lord, saith thus; Wailing shall be in all streets; and they shall say in all the highways, Alas! alas! and they shall call the husbandman to mourning, and such as are skilful of lamentation to wailing.
(17) And in all vineyards shall be wailing: for I will pass through thee, saith the LORD.

Woe unto those that desire the day of the LORD. To what end is it for those who do. It is the day of their mortal body being removed from this earth…the day of their death when the Lord comes to take them away. This is not a day to be desired as death is NOT a friend but an enemy that is triumphed over in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

(18) Woe unto you that desire the day of the LORD! to what end is it for you? the day of the LORD is darkness, and not light.

The day of our death is not light but darkness. The sting of death is sin….a realization that our death is because of our sins. We have suffered loss of our mortal body because of sin which should have been defeated by the keeping of the commandment of our Lord who told us to have love for one another. What remorse...what a "sting" of realization as we realize we have suffered loss of what could have been.

(19) As if a man did flee from a lion, and a bear met him; or went into the house, and leaned his hand on the wall, and a serpent bit him.
(20) Shall not the day of the LORD be darkness, and not light? even very dark, and no brightness in it?

We MUST not keep company with those who are preaching themselves for money’s sake.

We find the example of fornication in the desert as the people were called unto the sacrifices of the gods of the Moabites and the people did eat and bowed down to their gods.

Numbers 25:1-13 KJV
(1) And Israel abode in [bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse]tim, and the people began to commit whoredom with the daughters of Moab.
(2) And they called the people unto the sacrifices of their gods: and the people did eat, and bowed down to their gods.

We must not be joined to them by keeping company with them. “Baal peor” means “lord of the opening”.

The “opening” is the mouth that is opened to preach things that they ought not be for money’s sake. Their mouths must be stopped as they are deceiving MANY and leading MANY astray down the broad way to the destruction of the mortal body from off this earth.

We MUST NOT Be joined together with those who are called brothers but are covetous. They are serving for “Baal”. They serve for their own belly….their “god”. They serve for the unrighteous mammon. We cannot serve God AND mammon. We cannot have two masters. We cannot preach for money but must work with our own hands to support our own necessities.

(3) And Israel joined himself unto Baalpeor: and the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel.

We must “sever” (hang them up = sever) ourselves from the “heads of the people” who love the preeminence among us as they covetously preach the doctrines and commandments of men for money. They make merchandise of us. We must separate ourselves from them in the broad daylight….against the sun.

(4) And the LORD said unto Moses, Take all the heads of the people, and hang them up before the LORD against the sun, that the fierce anger of the LORD may be turned away from Israel.

This is a judgment call when we do not keep company with those who are called “brothers” but are covetous. We must put away the wicked brother among us.

And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you,
And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.

(5) And Moses said unto the judges of Israel, Slay ye every one his men that were joined unto Baalpeor.
(6) And, behold, one of the children of Israel came and brought unto his brethren a Midianitish woman in the sight of Moses, and in the sight of all the congregation of the children of Israel, who were weeping before the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
(7) And when Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, saw it, he rose up from among the congregation, and took a javelin in his hand;
(8) And he went after the man of Israel into the tent, and thrust both of them through, the man of Israel, and the woman through her belly. So the plague was stayed from the children of Israel.
(9) And those that died in the plague were twenty and four thousand.
(10) And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
(11) Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, hath turned my wrath away from the children of Israel, while he was zealous for my sake among them, that I consumed not the children of Israel in my jealousy.
(12) Wherefore say, Behold, I give unto him my covenant of peace:
(13) And he shall have it, and his seed after him, even the covenant of an everlasting priesthood; because he was zealous for his God, and made an atonement for the children of Israel.
