The Lord shall take the “stick of Joseph”……which is the “New Testament”…..that is in the hand of “Ephraim”….which is the Gentile Christian churches…..and will put them with the “stick of Judah”….the “Old Testament…. and shall make them ONE or UNITED in His hand…His power.

(Ezek 37:19 KJV) Say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his fellows, and will put them with him, even with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they shall be one in mine hand.

The last day revelation of the UNITED Scripture of Truth shall before our “eyes”…the “eyes of our understanding” shall be enlightened to His hidden Truth by Christ Jesus who is that Truth. All of the Scriptures are relevant and are to be united in His revealed knowledge.


20 And the sticks whereon thou writest shall be in thine hand before their eyes.

By doing so, He shall gather ALL of the children of Israel….those who will believe among the Gentiles and the Jews….and gather them together in the revealing of the Truth. He shall gather us from the “four winds”….from every “wind of doctrine” that man falsely preaches and has scattered the sheep from one end of “heaven” to the other. He shall gather us on “every side” and bring us into the Truth….our own “land.”

21 And say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among the heathen, whither they be gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land:

Christ Jesus shall be King to all of us. We shall be one UNITED “nation”….rather than “two nations”….Jew and Gentile. There will no longer be this distinction in the revelation of the Truth when we are gathered together. Neither shall we be divided into “two kingdoms” any more….meaning the Gentile Christian church under the “New testament” and the Jews under the “Old testament.” “Upon the mountains of Israel”= the words of Moses, all the prophets and the apostles. One King = Christ Jesus.

22 And I will make them one nation in the land upon the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king to them all: and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all:

There will no longer be any difference between Jew and the “Greek”…code for the Christian churches who seek after their own wisdom. The Lord shall be the King over us all.

(Rom 10:12 KJV) For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.

The Christian church (the “Greeks”) seeks after its own religious wisdom.

(1 Cor 1:22 KJV) For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom:

There will be neither Jew nor “Greek”….Gentile…..for we shall all be ONE in Christ Jesus…who is the revealing of the Truth. It is plainly obvious that this has not arrived yet….but is a prophecy.

(Gal 3:28 KJV) There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.

We are of Abraham’s seed because of the believing of the revelation of the Truth….Christ Jesus. Jesus opens up the Scriptures to our understanding in this last day and those who will believe in His interpretation are the children of Abraham….whether Jew or Gentile. We are to be a united people in the believing of the Truth.

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

Both Jew and Gentile shall no longer defile themselves with their falsehoods….doctrines and commandments of men…idols. He shall save us all from all of the deceitful preaching of the Word of God done by covetous men.

Ezek 37: 23 Neither shall they defile themselves any more with their idols, nor with their detestable things, nor with any of their transgressions: but I will save them out of all their dwellingplaces, wherein they have sinned, and will cleanse them: so shall they be my people, and I will be their God.

All have sinned….both Jew and Gentile church….

(Rom 3:23 KJV) For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;

Both Jew and Gentile have all sinned and need to be SAVED from our “dwellingplaces” wherein we have ALL sinned….from one end of heaven to the other. He will cleanse us ALL….both Jew and Gentile….and then we shall come together as one UNITED people in Christ Jesus who is the Truth that shall assemble us. We, the Gentile Christian churches, have NOT been any better than they…..for ALL have been under sin.

(Rom 3:9 KJV) What then? are we better than they? No, in no wise: for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin;

We are to confess our sins and He will forgive us for the missing of the mark of the Truth. Religious man’s interpretations of the Bible have missed the mark when compared to His interpretation. The “blood of Jesus Christ” is the Life…to love one another.

(1 John 1:7 KJV) But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.

He comes to properly interpret the Scriptures to us so that we may have knowledge of our sins that are done in IGNORANCE. Once we hear the Truth and say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves and the Truth is not in us.

8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

We shall all…both Jew and Gentile…have ONE King over us… “David” which means “beloved”….which is code for Christ Jesus the Truth. He shall be our Shepherd over a united people in the Truth….both Jew and Gentile.

Ezek 37: 24 And David my servant shall be king over them; and they all shall have one shepherd: they shall also walk in my judgments, and observe my statutes, and do them.

“David” = “beloved”= His “beloved Son” Christ Jesus. We are to hear HIS interpretation of the UNITED Scriptures rather than man’s…. “hear ye him.”

(Mat 17:5 KJV) While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him.

“My servant David shall be their prince for ever…” Christ Jesus the Truth shall be our Prince in the Age of ages….in the age of the revelation of the Truth. We shall dwell in the “land”….the Scripture of Truth in peace, love, joy, unity.

Ezek 37:25 And they shall dwell in the land that I have given unto Jacob my servant, wherein your fathers have dwelt; and they shall dwell therein, even they, and their children, and their children's children for ever: and my servant David shall be their prince for ever.
26 Moreover I will make a covenant of peace with them; it shall be an everlasting covenant with them: and I will place them, and multiply them, and will set my sanctuary in the midst of them for evermore.

His tabernacle shall be with men….in the revelation of the Truth that shall gather together all of His people that have been scattered out in many different directions…both Jew and Gentile.

27 My tabernacle also shall be with them: yea, I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
28 And the heathen shall know that I the LORD do sanctify Israel, when my sanctuary shall be in the midst of them for evermore.

His tabernacle shall be with men….

(Rev 21:3 KJV) And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.

God shall wipe away all tears from our eyes…..there shall be no more “death”…hating one another because of theological differences. Jew and Gentile shall be together as ONE people…for the former things…the divisions, envy and strife…shall pass away in this coming Age of the revelation of the Truth.

4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.

NOW in Christ Jesus…in the revealing of the Truth….we are to be made into ONE people….both Jew and Gentile.

(Eph 2:13 KJV) But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.

The revealing of the Truth shall make both Jew and Gentile into ONE. The Truth breaks down the “middle wall of partition between” Jew and Gentile.

14 For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us;

He will reconcile both Jew and Gentile into ONE BODY……ONE NEW MAN. We are to come together in peace. Man’s erroneous religious doctrines and commandments has kept the wall up between us. The Truth breaks down that wall that has kept us separated.

15 Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace;
16 And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby:

He comes to preach peace the Truth to us both….from one end of the heaven to the other…those who are afar off and to those that are close…to gather us together.

17 And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh.

For through the Truth Christ Jesus we BOTH…Jew and Gentile…will have access by ONE Spirit unto the Father.

18 For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father.

We shall be no more STRANGERS and foreigners….but shall be fellow citizens with the biblical saints in ALL Truth. Not understanding the Scriptures and preaching erroneous errors because of that lack of knowledge has kept us “strangers” to them. Knowing the Scriptures in the mind of Christ = no longer strangers.

19 Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;

....continued from previous post.





We are to no longer be strangers to the saints…the household of God….to the understanding of the written words of the apostles and prophets. We shall know their spiritual hidden meanings….being built upon the revelation of the Truth….on the foundation of properly understanding the written words of the apostles and prophets…the “household of God.” Jesus Christ is the Truth of their words….the chief “corner stone.”

20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;

The revelation of the Scripture of Truth shall build us TOGETHER into a spiritual house…where in peace, love, joy, unity rules.

21 In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:

We are to be built TOGETHER…both Jew and Gentile… for a habitation of God through the Spirit.

22 In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.

We have “reigned as kings” without the understanding of the apostles and prophets’ words. We are “full” and are “rich” without knowing the Truth. By knowing the Truth, we can truly “reign” as true “kings.”

(1 Cor 4:8 KJV) Now ye are full, now ye are rich, ye have reigned as kings without us: and I would to God ye did reign, that we also might reign with you.

We have lived as “kings” in our religious kingdoms….saying we are “rich and increased with goods and have need of nothing.” We know not our sins. Our sins have to be declared to us by the revealing of the Light…the knowledge of God.

(Rev 3:17 KJV) Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:

We are to come to the revealing of the Light of His knowledge so that we may know our sinful deeds…so that we may overcome them. Our deeds are to be manifest by His Light.

(John 3:20 KJV) For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.
21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.

To those who can overcome, He will grant us to sit with Him in His throne. We can reign as kings with Him.

(Rev 3:21 KJV) To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.

We can then be His chosen generation….a royal priesthood…a holy “nation”…both Jew and Gentile together….wherein this distinction between the two groups disappears. We shall no longer be “two nations”…but ONE united holy “nation.” We are to show forth the praises of Him who calls us out of man’s religious darkness into His marvelous Light of knowledge.

(1 Pet 2:9 KJV) But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should show forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:

There is neither Jew nor Greek in Christ Jesus. “Jew” = bond, male. “Greek” = gentile = free, female.

(Gal 3:28 KJV) There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.

“Jew” = “male” because they are of the “circumcision” which means they pursue after righteousness as if it could be attained by the works of the law instead of faith. A MALE is "circumcised."


(Rom 9:31 KJV) But Israel, which followed after the law of righteousness, hath not attained to the law of righteousness.
32 Wherefore? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumblingstone;

The “Greeks” or gentiles are “female” because they purse their own righteousness after their own religious wisdom. Jews require a “sign”…of which circumcision was a sign (Abraham). They require the works of the law instead of the faith to attain their “righteousness.” They have kept the “sign” instead of having the true faith. Greeks seek after their own wisdom…like the woman in the garden desiring to be wise.

(1 Cor 1:22 KJV) For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom:

Many in the churches have their faith standing in the wisdom of religious man….the “woman” Babylon…. desiring to be wise.

(1 Cor 2:5 KJV) That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.

He has made us “two nations”…both Jew and Gentile… “male and female.” But we shall be made into a UNITED holy “nation.” There shall no longer be “male”…a nation who is “circumcised” by their works of the law done without faith….and there shall no longer be “female”….a nation that has its faith in the religious wisdom of man.

(Mat 19:4 KJV) And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female,
5 And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh?

We shall no longer be two…but ONE flesh. What God will join together….the Jews and the Gentiles into one body….let no man put asunder. There shall no longer be “male nor female”….Jew or Gentile….in Christ Jesus who is the revealing of the Truth. We shall be ONE…united in Him. We shall be in the new man…Christ Jesus.

6 Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.

Our Lord Jesus Christ comes to open up the Scriptures for our understanding in this last day. In this revelation of the Scripture of Truth we are saved. We are to be built TOGETHER as ONE…into His holy temple. Peter was an eyewitness to the foreshadowing of this great heavenly event by witnessing the “transfiguration” in the “holy mount.” The Lord Jesus will speak to us in this last day through the spiritual, heavenly interpretation of the Scriptures. He is THE Truth. We are to HEAR Him in this last day and be saved from religious man’s bondage and the coming of the wrath of God which will come upon those who will stubbornly not hear and believe.

(2 Pet 1:17 KJV) For he received from God the Father honour and glory, when there came such a voice to him from the excellent glory, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
18 And this voice which came from heaven we heard, when we were with him in the holy mount.

His testimony is the SPIRIT of prophecy…..His interpretation of the Scriptures is spiritual and is to be heeded in this last day.

19 We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:

We are to KNOW THIS FIRST: No prophecy of the Scriptures is of any PRIVATE interpretation by religious man. This is the whole point of the transfiguration on the holy mount….Jesus interprets the Scriptures for us in this last day and we are to HEAR him….and believe in His interpretation. He “transforms” the Scriptures into their heavenly witness in Him.

20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.


(Luke 9:28 KJV) And it came to pass about an eight days after these sayings, he took Peter and John and James, and went up into a mountain to pray.

By Jesus praying, the fashion of his countenance was altered and his raiment was white and glistering. His interpretation of the Scriptures changes its witness from earthly to heavenly. The Scriptures shall become “white”….Greek word also meaning “light.” His interpretation of the Scriptures makes them SHINE in its NEW meaning….they are “transfigured” by His interpretation into the Light of the knowledge of God.

29 And as he prayed, the fashion of his countenance was altered, and his raiment was white and glistering.

Then we can truly understand the writings “Moses” and all of the Prophets….signified by Elijah here.

30 And, behold, there talked with him two men, which were Moses and Elias:

For Moses wrote of Jesus….of the coming revelation of the Truth.

(John 5:46 KJV) For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me: for he wrote of me.

Moses and the Prophets wrote of Jesus….THE Truth of their words. Moses and Elijah talking with Jesus upon the mountain signifies His interpretation of the Law and the prophets for our understanding.

(John 1:45 KJV) Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith unto him, We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.

The words of Moses and the prophets shall be revealed in His glorious interpretation of them. They shall glorify God in His heavenly interpretation. They spoke of his “decease”…..the word here is “exodus”….an exit. The Scriptures shall make an “exodus” from the darkness of earthly man’s understanding into the Light of the Father’s heavenly understanding. “Jerusalem” is the heavenly wisdom of God….the “New Jerusalem” who is from above and the mother to us all.

Luke 9: 31 Who appeared in glory, and spake of his decease which he should accomplish at Jerusalem.

Like Peter and those that were with him…..the churches have been “heavy with sleep.” They have been bogged down in religious man’s “sleep”…his envying, strife, his erroneous private interpretations of the Bible and his religious divisions. Yet, we are to “awaken” from our “sleep” and see His heavenly glory being revealed in the heavenly interpretation of the Scriptures.

32 But Peter and they that were with him were heavy with sleep: and when they were awake, they saw his glory, and the two men that stood with him.

The Scriptures are not three: The law, the prophets, and the “New Testament”….they are ONE in His heavenly interpretation.

33 And it came to pass, as they departed from him, Peter said unto Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias: not knowing what he said.

The words of Moses and all of the prophets and the apostles in His heavenly interpretation is the “cloud” of witnesses that He comes on.

34 While he thus spake, there came a cloud, and overshadowed them: and they feared as they entered into the cloud.

And out of the “cloud” of the biblical witnesses comes the voice that we are to hear. We are to HEAR the revelation of the Scripture of Truth…..His beloved Son whose testimony trumps all of man’s interpretations.

35 And there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him.

We have been waiting for Jesus to come and properly interpret the Scriptures for us so that we may be built into His TRUE spiritual tabernacle. We are to be built up in love and unity and peace. We have been waiting for Him to come and “knock” on the door of our hearts with His interpretation of the Scriptures.

(Luke 12:36 KJV) And ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their lord, when he will return from the wedding; that when he cometh and knocketh, they may open unto him immediately.

Blessed are those servants who are “watching” for His interpretation. For those who will hear and believe, He shall make them sit down to the “meat” of the Truth….to know all of the hidden mysteries of the Scriptures.

37 Blessed are those servants, whom the lord when he cometh shall find watching: verily I say unto you, that he shall gird himself, and make them to sit down to meat, and will come forth and serve them.

For He will reveal Himself to us through the opening up of the Scriptures….as noted by the disciples who sat at “meat” with him. He will “break” the Bread of the Scriptures so that we can eat of its understanding.

(Luke 24:30 KJV) And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took bread, and blessed it, and brake, and gave to them.

Then our “eyes” will be opened….the “eyes of our understanding” shall be opened and we shall fully know Him. We shall no longer see him after the flesh…but in the Spirit.

31 And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight.

Our hearts shall “burn” within us as He will open up the Scriptures to us. If we hear Him “knock” we are to open up our hearts to His knowledge that He will expound in the Scriptures concerning himself.

32 And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn within us, while he talked with us by the way, and while he opened to us the scriptures?
33 And they rose up the same hour, and returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, and them that were with them,

The Lord shall appear to “Simon”…which means “hearing.” We are to hear what the Spirit of Truth is saying in this last day so that we may know Him. We are to worship Him in Spirit and in Truth.

34 Saying, The Lord is risen indeed, and hath appeared to Simon.

We shall know Him by the breaking of the Bread of the Scriptures.

35 And they told what things were done in the way, and how he was known of them in breaking of bread.

The little details of the Scriptures speak VOLUMES. Note: “and as they spoke, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them……”

36 And as they thus spake, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.

As we speak His Word of Truth, Jesus is manifest also through our speaking. Jesus is the Truth of the Scriptures. When Christ….who is our Life….shall “appear”….that is revealed or declared, then we shall also be revealed with Him in glory. We share in His glory by declaring Christ Jesus….the Word of Truth. We reveal Him by preaching the Truth to others.

(Col 3:4 KJV) When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.

But we must prepare ourselves for this….we must deaden all of religious man’s things that have occupied our minds and hearts. Religious man’s wisdom is of the “earth”…from below. We can not reveal Christ until we have prepared ourselves for Him.

5 Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:

By knowing the Truth, we can crucify the “old man” of religion who is corrupt with all of his deceitful desires. We must destroy the "body of sin."


(Rom 6:6 KJV) Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.

We are to purify ourselves so that when He shall be revealed through us, we are like Him. We shall see the Truth as He is…we shall reveal Him in us who is our Life through the preaching of the Word of Truth.


(1 John 3:2 KJV) Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.
3 And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.

His glory shall be revealed in us….by our preaching of the Truth…Christ Jesus.

(Rom 8:18 KJV) For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.

The “manifestation of the sons of God” = the preaching of the Word of Truth by us which reveals Christ...the Truth.... to those who are listening.

19 For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.

Where two or three are gathered together in His name, there “am I” in the midst of us. When all of the Scriptures are gathered together in His name, there He is. Elijah and Moses were gathered together with Jesus upon the mount. There He is. When the Jews and the Gentiles gather together in His revelation of the Truth…there “ I am.”

(Mat 18:20 KJV) For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.

The Lord comes to show us the hidden mysteries of the Scriptures. He comes to “change” them into their heavenly testimonies. The Scriptures have been the “suffering servant” as religious man has twisted and distorted the words (the corruption) of the biblical saints. But they shall be “changed”…..the corruptible must put on the incorruptible.


(1 Cor 15:51 KJV) Behold, I show you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.

The Scriptures themselves has been the suffering servant……

(Isa 52:13 KJV) Behold, my servant shall deal prudently, he shall be exalted and extolled, and be very high.

The suffering servant’s “visage was so marred”…..meaning the Truth has become completely unrecognizable by what religious man preaches with his own wisdom of the Bible. The Truth can not be seen because of the misinterpretations of religious man.

14 As many were astonied at thee; his visage was so marred more than any man, and his form more than the sons of men:

But our Lord Jesus Christ…who is the Truth…comes to open up the Scriptures for our understanding. Then the “kings”….the pastors, priests, reverends, church leaders…shall shut their mouths at Him. For what they had not heard….the Scripture of Truth…shall be preached to them.

15 So shall he sprinkle many nations; the kings shall shut their mouths at him: for that which had not been told them shall they see; and that which they had not heard shall they consider.

But who will believe the report? Who will believe in the preaching of the Word of Truth? Will he find faith on the earth?

53:1 Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the LORD revealed?

The Word of God is LIVING. Even the disciples did not at first believe in the “report” of those who had first seen Jesus.

(Mark 16:11 KJV) And they, when they had heard that he was alive, and had been seen of her, believed not.

Christ Jesus transforms the Scriptures from one form to another…to its spiritual understanding from the earthly understanding of man.

12 After that he appeared in another form unto two of them, as they walked, and went into the country.

The disciples did not belief in the “report”….because of the unbelief and hardness of heart. Many in the churches will also not believe in the “report” in this last day because of unbelief.

13 And they went and told it unto the residue: neither believed they them.

Yet, Jesus will “unbraid” those of the church who will also in like manner not believe in the preaching of the Word of Truth ….the LIVING Word of God. Those that will sit at the “meat” of the Truth in this last day…hearing and yet not believing in what they hear…shall be chastised.

14 Afterward he appeared unto the eleven as they sat at meat, and upbraided them with their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they believed not them which had seen him after he was risen.

For the Word of God is “quick”….LIVING…and powerful and will know the thoughts of the hearts…..especially of those who will not believe.

(Heb 4:12 KJV) For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

For those whom He loves He chastens as a son…..

(Heb 12:6 KJV) For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.
7 If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?

The chastisement is FEAR….fear in the heart.

(Heb 12:11 KJV) Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby.
12 Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees;
13 And make straight paths for your feet, lest that which is lame be turned out of the way; but let it rather be healed.

Those who will have little faith in the hearing of the Truth shall become FEARFUL. We must receive the LOVE of the Truth. Perfect love is to receive the Truth and DO it…love one another. Fear “hath torment”….in other words fear IS the punishment. “Torment” = punishment.

(1 John 4:18 KJV) There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.

Those who are of little faith in the hearing of the Truth shall be “fearful.”

(Mat 8:26 KJV) And he saith unto them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith? Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm.

Religious man who will not believe in the Truth when he hears it will be given to fear and sorrow of heart…..as chastisement for not hearing the Truth and DOING it because of unbelief and hardness of heart.

(Lev 26:14 KJV) But if ye will not hearken unto me, and will not do all these commandments;
15 And if ye shall despise my statutes, or if your soul abhor my judgments, so that ye will not do all my commandments, but that ye break my covenant:
16 I also will do this unto you; I will even appoint over you terror, consumption, and the burning ague, that shall consume the eyes, and cause sorrow of heart: and ye shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it.
17 And I will set my face against you, and ye shall be slain before your enemies: they that hate you shall reign over you; and ye shall flee when none pursueth you.

And if that doesn’t cause one to hear and do the Truth…then the chastisement gets more severe.

18 And if ye will not yet for all this hearken unto me, then I will punish you seven times more for your sins.
19 And I will break the pride of your power; and I will make your heaven as iron, and your earth as brass:

As many as He loves, He will rebuke and chasten…..we are to be zealous….lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees because of FEAR and REPENT…. “change the mind” about hearing the Truth.

(Rev 3:19 KJV) As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.

We are to open up our hearts….the “door” to our hearts…and let Him in. Let us receive the Truth in our hearts with belief…with perfect love. Perfect love will cast out the FEAR. The fear is the result of punishment for unbelief.

20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
21 To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.
22 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.

The Master…the Teacher….shall “arise” and rebuke the “wind and the raging of the water” just as he did 2000 years ago.

(Luke 8:22 KJV) Now it came to pass on a certain day, that he went into a ship with his disciples: and he said unto them, Let us go over unto the other side of the lake. And they launched forth.
23 But as they sailed he fell asleep: and there came down a storm of wind on the lake; and they were filled with water, and were in jeopardy.

He shall rebuke the “wind” of man’s doctrines that toss us around….and the raging of the people (the water)….the envy , strife, and hatred. He shall rebuke the unbelief in people’s hearts.

24 And they came to him, and awoke him, saying, Master, master, we perish. Then he arose, and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water: and they ceased, and there was a calm.

“Where is your FAITH?” Having no faith results in FEAR.

25 And he said unto them, Where is your faith? And they being afraid wondered, saying one to another, What manner of man is this! for he commandeth even the winds and water, and they obey him.


(Mark 4:40 KJV) And he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no faith?

Men who will have no faith in the hearing of the revealed Truth shall be given to FEAR.

(Luke 21:26 KJV) Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.

Many in the churches are to be saved from the ways and thoughts of religious man. Religious man currently lives in “malice and envy, hatefulness, and hating one another” in their divisions. They fight and war over who is approved of God….who is “greatest.”

(Titus 3:3 KJV) For we ourselves also were sometimes foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.

But AFTER THAT the kindness and love of God our Savior shall appear toward religious man. He shall reveal the Scripture of Truth to us so that we may be delivered from the evil bondage of religious man.

4 But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared,

Our religious “works of righteousness” will not profit us in the end. None of them can save us….but it is His mercy that saves us. We are to be washed in the REGENERATION. We are to be RENEWED in the Spirit of Truth.

5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;
6 Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour;
7 That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.

This lack of love for each other is the “daily” sacrifice that has been taken away for many in the churches….they do not love one another…the “daily.”

(Dan 8:11 KJV) Yea, he magnified himself even to the prince of the host, and by him the daily sacrifice was taken away, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down.

Because of the increase of iniquity in the churches, many do not keep the “daily”….the continuing commandment to love one another.

12 And an host was given him against the daily sacrifice by reason of transgression, and it cast down the truth to the ground; and it practiced, and prospered.

The “daily” sacrifice is taken away….which is the love of many….by reason of transgression…. “because iniquity shall abound.”

(Mat 24:12 KJV) And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.

Jesus has shown his love for us by his sacrifice……and so we must keep the “daily” sacrifice….to love one another. This is the “new testament”…the “new covenant”….the “new commandment”….the “daily sacrifice”…..that is to love one another in the Truth.

(John 13:34 KJV) A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.
35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.

The “daily”…the “continuing”…is to love one another. We owe this every day.

(Rom 13:8 KJV) Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.

Many in the churches have been living in the flesh to the lusts of religious men in high places. But He comes to reveal the Truth to us so that we may finally LIVE to the will of God. Doing what religious man teaches brings hatred of one another, envy and strife into our lives. Religious man’s doctrinal differences pits one group against another.

(1 Pet 4:2 KJV) That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.

Like the disciples once did, many in the churches dispute among themselves about who is the greatest….who is the correct, true church…who is approved over others.

(Mark 9:33 KJV) 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.

There is strife among the churches about who is accounted the greatest among us.

(Luke 22:24 KJV) And there was also a strife among them, which of them should be accounted the greatest.

Many in the church are in the “flesh”….they are “carnal” babes in Christ.

(1 Cor 3:1 KJV) And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ.
2 I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able.

They are carnal because of the hatred for each other….the envying and strife and divisions. The “daily” sacrifice has been removed from their hearts by the leaders among them.

3 For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?

The “Lord’s supper” is the “daily” supper we are to keep….that is, to love one another. He gave his life for us in his love for us…and we are to remember to love one another…the spiritual Truth of the Lord’s supper. We are to do that in remembrance of him…to love one another. We are his body.

(Luke 22:19 KJV) And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you:this do in remembrance of me.
20 Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you.

To love one another is the “daily bread.”

(Luke 11:3 KJV) Give us day by day our daily bread.

Many pastors and church leaders have taken away this “daily sacrifice”….to love one another…..from many in the churches. They have instead placed the “abomination” that makes desolate……the lusts of religious men.

(Dan 11:31 KJV) And arms shall stand on his part, and they shall pollute the sanctuary of strength, and shall take away the daily sacrifice, and they shall place the abomination that maketh desolate.

This abomination is covetousness. It has made His temple…His church…into a house of merchandise. It has been made desolate…into a den of thieves. It stands where it ought not be….in His temple…in His people.

(John 2:13 KJV) And the Jews' passover was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem,

The “abomination of desolation”…covetousness…. has been placed in the holy place…the temple of God. We are His temple . The “sheep”…His people are being made merchandise of by those who buy and sell their brand of religion.

14 And found in the temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changers of money sitting:
15 And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers' money, and overthrew the tables;

The abomination of covetousness has brought His house to desolation…into a house of merchandise.

16 And said unto them that sold doves, Take these things hence; make not my Father's house an house of merchandise.
17 And his disciples remembered that it was written, The zeal of thine house hath eaten me up.
18 Then answered the Jews and said unto him, What sign showest thou unto us, seeing that thou doest these things?

His temple has been desolated by many pastors and church leaders…they have destroyed His temple by their covetousness. But He shall raise us up again...by the revealing of the Truth in the regeneration...in the renewing of the Spirit by which we can then truly love one another.


19 Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.

Covetousness is the “abomination of desolation”….we are to FLEE from it. It is the idolatry that is currently in place in the temple.

(Col 3:5 KJV) Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:

Covetousness involves handling/preaching the Word of God deceitfully in order to deceive the congregation out of its money, time, love, peace, joy. Men who preach the Word of God dishonestly (without the Truth) are robbers and thieves.

(2 Cor 4:2 KJV) But have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.

MANY “corrupt” …or retail…the Word of God in order to GAIN things from the people of God for their own.

(2 Cor 2:17 KJV) For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ.

Many preach for other men’s “silver, gold or apparel.” They preach their own misinterpretations of the Bible in order to gain the money, time, thoughts of the people of God.

(Acts 20:33 KJV) I have coveted no man's silver, or gold, or apparel.

Covetousness is THE abomination that we are to flee from when we understand where it is….currently in the churches. Let it not be once named among us as saints in the Truth.

(Eph 5:3 KJV) But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints;

We are to hear the revelation of the Truth in this last day and TURN back to God. We are to let our “conversation”…or turning… be without covetousness…the abomination of desolation. We are to beware of covetousness….for a man’s life does not consist of the abundance of his things. It does not consist of magnificent church buildings, grand ministries, huge congregations, bigger church bank accounts, religious goods and services…. His house is NOT suppose to be a house of merchandise. It is not to be a den of thieves…for preaching the Word of God deceitfully. We are to be content with the things we have. Gain does NOT equate to godliness.

(Heb 13:5 KJV) Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.

We are to hear the Truth and withdraw ourselves from the “abomination of desolation”….from covetous preachers and their followers. They suppose that “gain is godliness”…bigger is better…church growth at no matter what cost. God adds to the church not man. God gives the increase…His revelation of the Scripture of Truth shall build us up into a holy temple by which our spiritual sacrifices are acceptable. Religious man has built a gold calf of religion…in the “fire”… in the envying and strife.

(1 Tim 6:5 KJV) Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself.

Gain is NOT godliness….but godliness with contentment is GREAT GAIN.

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.

Some religious men in high places will not hear and believe in the Truth when they hear it. Their love of money shall capture them in a snare which will drown them in ruin and perdition. They shall believe in the LIE: that gain is godliness….instead of believing in the revelation of the Truth.

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.
10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

We are to flee covetousness when the “eyes of our understanding” open up and see the “abomination of desolation” in the place where it should not be. We are to flee from it and withdraw from those who continue to bow down to their religious idols. We are to flee from the abomination of desolation and go to the “mountains” of His righteousness.

11 But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.

Let the “man of God”…those who are in “Judaea”…Christ Jesus….flee from covetousness which is the abomination of desolation and go to the “mountains” of His righteousness. Let us put on the “new man” and flee from the covetousness that is now so prevalent in the churches.

(Mark 13:14 KJV) But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not, (let him that readeth understand,) then let them that be in Judaea flee to the mountains:

For His righteousness is the “great mountains” that we are to flee to.

(Psa 36:6 KJV) Thy righteousness is like the great mountains; thy judgments are a great deep: O LORD, thou preservest man and beast.

Some pastors and church leaders will not believe in the Truth when they will hear it…

(Ezek 33:30 KJV) Also, thou son of man, the children of thy people still are talking against thee by the walls and in the doors of the houses, and speak one to another, every one to his brother, saying, Come, I pray you, and hear what is the word that cometh forth from the LORD.

They will hear the revealed Word of God but they will not do what it says. Their heart shall go after their covetousness instead….the abomination of desolation….the idolatry.

31 And they come unto thee as the people cometh, and they sit before thee as my people, and they hear thy words, but they will not do them: for with their mouth they show much love, but their heart goeth after their covetousness.

They will not be able to deny themselves…..their great possessions of church wealth…in order to follow the Truth. They will not be able to give up their denominations that they have labored for…their religious, covetous thoughts and ways…in order to follow Jesus.

(Mat 16:24 KJV) Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
25 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it.
26 For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

Instead, they will think that they are the “wise”…and the “law” or INSTRUCTION of Jehovah is in their teachings. Little do they know that their “scribes” have written and taught in vain…in empty errors of man that have been passed down. Their church fathers have handed down vain traditions of men.

(Jer 8:8 KJV) 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.

Their “wisdom” will not save them…..and they will have rejected the Word of Jehovah…His revealed Word of Truth in this last day. The wisdom of religious men is of “Belail”…worthless and vain.

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?

For every church leader who will have rejected the revealed Word of Jehovah will instead be given to his own covetousness….the abomination of desolation…the idolatry.

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.

They will be preaching “peace and safety.” They will think that none of this evil shall come upon them even though they refuse to depart from covetousness….the abomination.

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.

They will have done evil in the “sight” of Jehovah….which is doing evil in the revelation of His knowledge in the last day. They will reject His revealed Word for their own covetousness.

(Judg 2:11 KJV) And the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the LORD, and served Baalim:

They will forsake Him who had bought them and will bow down to idols….their own covetous ways and thoughts.

12 And they forsook the LORD God of their fathers, which brought them out of the land of Egypt, and followed other gods, of the gods of the people that were round about them, and bowed themselves unto them, and provoked the LORD to anger.

They will forsake Him…His revelation of the Truth…in order to serve “Baal” and “Ashtaroth.”

13 And they forsook the LORD, and served Baal and Ashtaroth.

“Baal” means “master.” They will choose their “Baal” …their covetousness…over His revealing of the Truth. They will reject it for their own religious ways and thoughts. They will serve in the bondage of corruption to “Baal.” No servant can serve two "masters."


(Luke 16:13 KJV) No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

They will seek after their religious GAIN…thinking that gain is their godliness. They will serve “Ashtaroth” which means “increase, to grow, GAIN.” And what would serving Ashtaroth do in the end…what profit is there?

(Mark 8:36 KJV) For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?

....continued from previous post...





We are to depart from the company of those who will not hear and believe in the revelation of the Truth…the men of “Belial”…those who serve “Baal” and “Ashtaroth.” The temple of God does NOT have an agreement with “idols”….idolatry…covetousness…..the abomination of desolation. "Belial" = "without profit, worthless." Men of "Belial" will continue to follow after their own religious, worthless ways and thoughts.


(2 Cor 6:15 KJV) 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.

Those who will hear and believe in the Truth are to come out from among those of the church who will not hear and do the Truth. We are to be separate from them….and to not touch the “unclean thing”…covetousness…the abomination of desolation.

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.

(Isa 52:11 KJV) Depart ye, depart ye, go ye out from thence, touch no unclean thing; go ye out of the midst of her; be ye clean, that bear the vessels of the LORD.

The Truth…Christ Jesus….is revealed so that we may be separated from those who live in error in our church gatherings. He comes to bring division….the Light from the darkness, the wheat from the tares, the sheep from the goats…

(Luke 12:51 KJV) Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division:

Those that will hear and fear Jehovah…which is the beginning of wisdom….shall be written in the book of remembrance.

(Mal 3:16 KJV) Then they that feared the LORD spake often one to another: and the LORD hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the LORD, and that thought upon his name.

We shall be His in that Day when He shall make up His jewels…His treasure.

17 And they shall be mine, saith the LORD of hosts, in that day when I make up my jewels; and I will spare them, as a man spareth his own son that serveth him.

THEN we shall be able to discern between the righteous and the wicked….between those of the church who really do serve God and those who do not.

18 Then shall ye return, and discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him that serveth God and him that serveth him not.

All those in the church who will do wickedly against the revealing of the Truth shall be “stubble.” None of their works, thoughts and ways shall survive…for they will be burned up in the great humbling process.

4:1 For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the LORD of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.

As Mary says…His mercy is on them that will fear Him….be in awe of His Truth. Those that will fear Him shall do what He says and come out from among those who will not believe.

(Luke 1:50 KJV) And his mercy is on them that fear him from generation to generation.

He shall scatter the proud of the church…those who will not depart from their own religious thoughts and ways. He shall scatter them in the imagination of their heart.

51 He hath showed strength with his arm; he hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.

He shall put down the “mighty” of the churches from their seats of authority over His flock.

52 He hath put down the mighty from their seats, and exalted them of low degree.

He shall send the “rich” pastors and church leaders and their followers away empty.

53 He hath filled the hungry with good things; and the rich he hath sent empty away.
54 He hath holpen his servant Israel, in remembrance of his mercy;

Because when He will call us out of Babylon in this last day by the revealing of the Truth, they will not “answer.” When He will “speak” to us in the revelation in this last day, they will not hear. Instead, they will do evil before His “eyes”…the “eyes” of His understanding that we shall hear. They, instead, will choose their abomination….covetousness…the Baal…the “Ashtareth.”

(Isa 65:12 KJV) Therefore will I number you to the sword, and ye shall all bow down to the slaughter: because when I called, ye did not answer; when I spake, ye did not hear; but did evil before mine eyes, and did choose that wherein I delighted not.

We shall eat in His kingdom…but they shall be “hungry”….we shall “drink” the Water of Life…but they shall be “thirsty.” And all of this because of their rejection of the Truth.

13 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, my servants shall eat, but ye shall be hungry: behold, my servants shall drink, but ye shall be thirsty: behold, my servants shall rejoice, but ye shall be ashamed:
We shall sing for joy of heart, and they shall cry for sorrow of heart. What a shame to reject your own mercy….to lose one’s heavenly inheritance. What profit is there to gain the whole religious world but lose one’s soul?

14 Behold, my servants shall sing for joy of heart, but ye shall cry for sorrow of heart, and shall howl for vexation of spirit.
15 And ye shall leave your name for a curse unto my chosen: for the Lord GOD shall slay thee, and call his servants by another name:


The Truth shall set us free....the God of Truth. He shall reveal His Truth in the Scriptures by which we may cleanse ourselves in His living water.



16 That he who blesseth himself in the earth shall bless himself in the God of truth; and he that sweareth in the earth shall swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hid from mine eyes.

The former things…the envying, the strife, the divisions, the hatred in the churches…shall not be remembered….for He shall make all things new. He shall RENEW us in the REGENERATION. He shall wipe away the “tears” of the churches.

17 For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.
18 But be ye glad and rejoice for ever in that which I create: for, behold, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy.
19 And I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in my people: and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the voice of crying.

When the “eyes of our understanding” finally awake to see the “abomination of desolation”…which is covetousness….standing where it ought not be…in the temple of God, then those who are in “Judaea”…in Christ Jesus…are to FLEE to the “mountains”…His righteousness. "Run to the hills, run for your lives...." Let those who read UNDERSTAND the spiritual things of God behind the words.

(Mark 13:14 KJV) But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not, (let him that readeth understand,) then let them that be in Judaea flee to the mountains:

We are to go to the “mount of Olives” ….His mountain of righteousness in the fruits of the Spirit. Jesus had gone unto the mount of Olives…..

(Mat 21:1 KJV) And when they drew nigh unto Jerusalem, and were come to Bethphage, unto the mount of Olives, then sent Jesus two disciples,

And the donkey and the “colt” were brought to him in the mount of Olives.

2 Saying unto them, Go into the village over against you, and straightway ye shall find an ass tied, and a colt with her: loose them, and bring them unto me.
3 And if any man say ought unto you, ye shall say, The Lord hath need of them; and straightway he will send them.
4 All this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying,

Christ Jesus is the King….the Truth…that comes to those who will receive the love of the Truth in meekness. When we receive Him in the Truth with all humbleness, He shall give us rest. He shall be King over our hearts in peace, love and joy.

5 Tell ye the daughter of Sion, Behold, thy King cometh unto thee, meek, and sitting upon an ass, and a colt the foal of an ass.

We are to come unto Him in our FAITH of the Truth. All those that labor and are heavy laden are those burdened by religious man’s burdens…religious man’s grievous commandments, doctrines, traditions, denominations.

(Mat 11:28 KJV) Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

We are to come to Him and LEARN His Truth. He is meek and lowly in heart….riding upon a “donkey.” His “yoke” is easy and His “burden” is light. All those who can humble themselves at the Truth, the Truth comes to us in all meekness and lowly in heart…..giving us true rest in the Spirit.

29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.

As shown in John, many people WENT FORTH to meet Him. They had left the city to go unto the “mount of Olives” to meet Him upon the donkey.

(John 12:12 KJV) On the next day much people that were come to the feast, when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,
13 Took branches of palm trees, and went forth to meet him, and cried, Hosanna: Blessed is the King of Israel that cometh in the name of the Lord.

Likewise, we are also to leave “Jerusalem” where pastors will be preaching “peace and safety” ….the meaning of “Jerusalem.” We are to leave those who are in the “temple” buying and selling their religious merchandise to the “sheep.” They will sell “doves”… preaching peace and safety so that they may continue with their covetous ways and thoughts….even though Jesus Christ is coming to the “city”…to the temple. He comes to cast out those who will not hear and believe in His Truth because of their covetousness. He comes in the Day of vengeance.

(Mat 21:12 KJV) And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves,

Instead of coming to the Truth in this last day with all humbleness, there will be pastors in the churches continuing to willfully stay in the “temple” buying and selling in the covetousness of their hearts. They shall preach “peace and safety” to their congregations…. “Jerusalem.” They will continue to make merchandise of the people of God. But as we see in Luke, this retelling of the abomination of desolation in the temple is a bit different from the other gospels. We see in Luke that “Jerusalem” is compassed with “armies.” This is showing the DAYS of VENGEANCE that will come upon those who will not hear, believe and DO the Truth. Yes, Jerusalem was surrounded by the Romans 2000 years ago…but there is a spiritual fulfillment of this for today’s churches.

(Luke 21:20 KJV) And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh.
21 Then let them which are in Judaea flee to the mountains; and let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in the countries enter thereinto.

Luke is showing us the Day of vengeance that will come upon those in the churches who will not receive the love of the Truth and be saved…those who did not leave the city and come to Him who is meek and lowly of heart…riding upon a “donkey.”

22 For these be the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.

There is somewhat of a different scene here in Luke. He rides upon only a “colt”….a young HORSE.

(Luke 19:35 KJV) And they brought him to Jesus: and they cast their garments upon the colt, and they set Jesus thereon.
36 And as he went, they spread their clothes in the way.

Jesus descends from the mount of Olives…..with a “whole multitude” of disciples. This is literal scene of the Word of God riding the white horse with the armies of heaven following. He is coming to take vengeance upon those who will continue to defile the temple of God. We are His temple. When the Lord comes near.....He will be riding a "horse" followed by the armies of heaven....a whole multitude of His disciples.


37 And when he was come nigh, even now at the descent of the mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen;

There is peace in heaven….but for the wicked who will continue to defile His temple there will be no peace. There will be no peace for the wicked who will reject His Truth that comes in meekness and lowly of heart.

38 Saying, Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest.
39 And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said unto him, Master, rebuke thy disciples.
40 And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.

He will weep over those who will not have listened….those who will harden their hearts at hearing the Truth in this last day.

41 And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it,

They would have had rest for their souls…peace…if only they would have come to Him…the Truth. His yoke is easy and His burden is light. We are to approach Him on the "donkey"….and not encounter Him on the white horse that judges and makes war.

42 Saying, If thou hadst known, even thou, at least in this thy day, the things which belong unto thy peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes.
43 For the days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall cast a trench about thee, and compass thee round, and keep thee in on every side,

It will be a time of visitation for those in the church who will not watch….it will come upon them as a thief in the night.

44 And shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children within thee; and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another; because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation.

And immediately Jesus went into the temple and BEGAN to cast out those who sold therein and those that bought. He comes AGAIN to finish this cleansing of the temple of God….the “days of vengeance” that are coming. He comes with the multitude of disciples who will be preaching the Word of Truth.

45 And he went into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold therein, and them that bought;
46 Saying unto them, It is written, My house is the house of prayer: but ye have made it a den of thieves.

The Lord comes with “myriads” of His saints…Jesus came down from the “mount of Olives” with a multitude of his disciples.

(Jude 1:14 KJV) And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints,
15 To execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speeches which ungodly sinners have spoken against him.

Men in the temple shall continue to walk after their own covetousness….and their mouths shall speak great swelling words (selling “doves”…peace and safety”)….having men’s persons in admiration because of “advantage”…or profit. They shall seek to make merchandise of the “sheep”….keeping them from coming to Jesus…the Truth.

16 These are murmurers, complainers, walking after their own lusts; and their mouth speaketh great swelling words, having men's persons in admiration because of advantage.

Jesus descended from the mount of Olives with a multitude of disciples….the revealed Word of God is pictured upon a white horse coming with the armies of heaven in Revelation.

(Rev 19:11 KJV) And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.
12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.

His name is the Word of God….and the armies of heaven follow Him in righteousness.

13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.
14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.

He comes to cleanse the temple of God…..He comes to tread the wine press of the fierceness and wrath of the Almighty God. He comes to cast out all of those covetous pastors and church leaders who will continue to make merchandise of the people of God.

15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.

For He is the King of kings……and Lord of lords.


16 And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.

The desolators of the temple shall be desolated themselves….because they will have rejected the Truth when it came to them meek and lowly in heart. He comes with the armies of heaven to fight against them with the sword of His mouth.

(Luke 21:20 KJV) And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh.

We are to repent of our ways and thoughts…..

(Rev 2:16 KJV) Repent; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth.

We are the temple of God….and those who will continue to defile His temple in their covetous preaching shall be destroyed….in their own corruption.

(1 Cor 3:16 KJV) 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.

For Jehovah our God is a jealous God. He is jealous for His people…His temple.

(Deu 4:24 KJV) For the LORD thy God is a consuming fire, even a jealous God.

He will not spare in the Day of vengeance. Jealousy is the rage of a “man”…Hebrew word means “warrior, strong.” Our God is a jealous God for His people…His temple.

(Prov 6:34 KJV) For jealousy is the rage of a man: therefore he will not spare in the day of vengeance.

He will not regard any price….the “wonderful works” of religious man….

35 He will not regard any ransom; neither will he rest content, though thou givest many gifts.
7:1 My son, keep my words, and lay up my commandments with thee.

Satan’s ministers of “righteousness” have come into the “sanctuary” with their covetous ways and thoughts. They have come in “unawares” while men have “slept.” They have polluted the sanctuary with their works of “righteousness”….their religious “wonderful works.”

(2 Cor 11:14 KJV) And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.

As it says in Daniel….they have polluted the “sanctuary of strength.” They corrupt the Word of God with their erroneous preaching which is motivated by covetousness. By doing so, they have led many astray….scattering the lost sheep. They have taken away the “daily sacrifice”…..which is to love one another…and they have placed the “abomination of desolation” ….which is covetousness…within the churches. They have “sheared” the sheep of TRUE righteousness….peace, love, joy, unity in the Spirit. Those that have forsaken the “holy covenant”…which is to love one another…do so for church riches, power, “growth” and glory among men and they have led many astray.

(Dan 11:31 KJV) And arms shall stand on his part, and they shall pollute the sanctuary of strength, and shall take away the daily sacrifice, and they shall place the abomination that maketh desolate.

But the time is coming for the Lord to come cast out the buyers and sellers in the temple….the “sanctuary” shall be cleansed.

(Dan 8:13 KJV) Then I heard one saint speaking, and another saint said unto that certain saint which spake, How long shall be the vision concerning the daily sacrifice, and the transgression of desolation, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot?
14 And he said unto me, Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed.

The Lord comes to deliver His people from the covetous preaching and ways of earthly-minded men. He comes to redeem us so that we may have the true Life in Him…so that we may love one another in the revealing of the Truth. If the pastor/church leader (the “goodman) will be watching for His interpretation of the Scriptures, then he would not have his house broken up. For the Lord comes to take back His people…and it will be like a “thief in the night” for some pastors that aren’t watching. He is coming for His many “lost sheep"...those that have been listening and following the voice of strangers. Only the "little flock" has followed His voice...by loving one another.


(Mat 24:43 KJV) But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.
44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.

That pastor/church leader that is watching will be feeding His sheep the Truth….the “meat” in due season…in the time of the revelation of the Truth. “Feed my sheep.”

45 Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?
46 Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.
47 Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods.

The Lord comes to destroy Babylon….because it is the vengeance of Jehovah….the vengeance of His temple. Covetous pastors and leaders defile the temple with their teachings. We are His temple. The “sanctuary”…the holy place… is the foundation of that temple….the writings of Moses, prophets, and apostles. Religious man will no longer be able to corrupt the Word of God with their misinterpretations. This temple shall be raised incorruptible in the revealing of the Word of Truth….the sanctuary will be cleansed in this last day.

(Jer 51:10 KJV) The LORD hath brought forth our righteousness: come, and let us declare in Zion the work of the LORD our God.

He comes to destroy Babylon. The "vengeance of His temple".....


11 Make bright the arrows; gather the shields: the LORD hath raised up the spirit of the kings of the Medes: for his device is against Babylon, to destroy it; because it is the vengeance of the LORD, the vengeance of his temple.
12 Set up the standard upon the walls of Babylon, make the watch strong, set up the watchmen, prepare the ambushes: for the LORD hath both devised and done that which he spake against the inhabitants of Babylon.

It is about covetousness….the abomination of desolation…being in the holy place…in the temple….where it ought not be.

13 O thou that dwellest upon many waters, abundant in treasures, thine end is come, and the measure of thy covetousness.

“Jerusalem” …those people who will preach peace and safety for religious Babylon’s peace and safety in the last day …shall be compassed about with the armies of heaven following the Word of God. She can’t be saved. She can’t be healed. Her desolation draws near. We are to forsake her for NEW JERUSALEM…the holy city from above…His heavenly wisdom. Holy Jerusalem descends from above…His heavenly wisdom…and we are to flee to that “great and high mountain” of righteousness. It is spiritually discerned….. “he carried me away in the Spirit…”

(Rev 21:10 KJV) And he carried me away in the spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me that great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God,

And no man can defile His heavenly wisdom. Nobody that defiles or works abomination…works of iniquity in covetousness…or makes a lie can enter into NEW Jerusalem. For outside will be those who will continue to do those things. They will not understand. Their love for riches and belief in religious man’s falsehoods will prevent them from entering into knowing His Scripture of Truth in all wisdom and power.

(Rev 21:27 KJV) And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb's book of life.

And there will not be anything left of Babylon.

(Jer 50:26 KJV) Come against her from the utmost border, open her storehouses: cast her up as heaps, and destroy her utterly: let nothing of her be left.

It will be the time of the covetous preachers visitation….in the Day of vengeance. He comes to drive them out of the temple.

27 Slay all her bullocks; let them go down to the slaughter: woe unto them! for their day is come, the time of their visitation.

When you see the armies compass “Jerusalem”….or Babylon….know that the desolation of it is near. Let them in the midst of it depart out of the religious organizations of men. It will be in the Day of vengeance of His temple.

28 The voice of them that flee and escape out of the land of Babylon, to declare in Zion the vengeance of the LORD our God, the vengeance of his temple.

His armies shall camp against it round about…..and will be preaching the Word of Truth. They shall shoot the arrows of the Truth with precision…hitting the mark every time.

29 Call together the archers against Babylon: all ye that bend the bow, camp against it round about; let none thereof escape: recompense her according to her work; according to all that she hath done, do unto her: for she hath been proud against the LORD, against the Holy One of Israel.
30 Therefore shall her young men fall in the streets, and all her men of war shall be cut off in that day, saith the LORD.
31 Behold, I am against thee, O thou most proud, saith the Lord GOD of hosts: for thy day is come, the time that I will visit thee.

WE are His “army”…..His preachers of the revealed Truth.

(Eph 6:10 KJV) Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.

We are to put on the whole armor of God for this “war” so to speak.

11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

We will “wrestle” against the “rulers of the darkness of this world”….the covetous preachers and church leaders who wield their power over His lost sheep….over His body (His flesh and blood.)

12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;

They shall fire back with their malicious, evil, false accusations….the “fiery darts”…..not wanting us to preach the Truth to the people under their rule. The preaching of the Truth shall set them free from them. The church leaders and pastors will call those who will preach the Truth “evildoers.” But our faith in His Truth shall sustain us against such attacks.

16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:

The “dragon” will fight with his “angels”…his ministers of so-called “righteousness.” They will oppose and contradict the preaching of the revealed Truth.

(Rev 12:7 KJV) And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,
8 And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.

But they will be cast out…for the Truth shall prevail. They shall be cast out of His temple. Satan’s ministers shall lose their positions of authority over His lost sheep that will hear His voice and come out from among them in this last day.

9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.

We are to be His soldiers….soldiers of Jesus Christ that follow the revealed Word of God….being armed in righteousness, peace and faith…. “white linen.”

(2 Tim 2:1 KJV) Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.

This “war” involves teaching His lost sheep…feeding them with the Truth. Those ministers of “righteousness” ...Satan's messengers...will not kindly sit by while this happens. Instead of believing in the Truth, they will rise up to fight those preachers of His revelation of the Truth.

2 And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.

We are to be a “good soldier” of Christ Jesus….one that strives lawfully…in peace and meekness of the Spirit. We are not to bring any “railing accusations” against any man.

3 Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.

He chooses us to be His soldiers….His “armies of heaven” that follow after the Word of Truth.

4 No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.
5 And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully.

We are to “strive” lawfully….in gentleness….in patience…in meekness.

(2 Tim 2:24 KJV) And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient,

This “war” is one of teaching…instructing…others into the Way of righteousness by the preaching of the revealing of the Truth.

25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;
26 And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.

But there will be church men who will not listen and will rise up to “fight” against those who do teach that Truth. They will be “lovers of their own selves”…instead of the Truth….ever learning but will never come to the acknowledgment of the revelation of the Truth.

3:1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,

There will be “false accusers” in the church….the despisers of those that are good…of those who will preach the Truth in this last day.

3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,

They will be “ever learning” and will never be able to come to the full knowledge of the Truth….their own unbelief and hardness of hearts will keep them out. Their hearts will go after their covetousness instead.

7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.

They will resist the revealing of the Truth….they will not believe in it…. “reprobate concerning the faith” in His Word of Truth.

8 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith.
9 But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as theirs also was.

At the preaching of the Truth, these men shall arise up in their pride to defy His “armies” in this last day….just like Goliath . We are not to fear their “terror.” They will oppose and contradict the preachers of the Truth.


(1 Sam 17:10 KJV) And the Philistine said, I defy the armies of Israel this day; give me a man, that we may fight together.


(1 Sam 17:23 KJV) And as he talked with them, behold, there came up the champion, the Philistine of Gath, Goliath by name, out of the armies of the Philistines, and spake according to the same words: and David heard them.

We are not to be afraid of them...like the men of Israel were of Goliath.

24 And all the men of Israel, when they saw the man, fled from him, and were sore afraid.

They will be the man of sin who shall rise up to defy His heavenly armies….just as Goliath. “Goliath” means “to denude, REVEAL, exile.” The “man of sin” shall be revealed by his vocal reaction to the preaching of the Truth. “Goliath” represents the many men who will collectively rise up in their pride to oppose and contradict the preaching of the Truth in this last day. Goliath was from “Gath” which means “winepress”…the Lord comes to tread the “winepress” of the wrath of God.


25 And the men of Israel said, Have ye seen this man that is come up? surely to defy Israel is he come up: and it shall be, that the man who killeth him, the king will enrich him with great riches, and will give him his daughter, and make his father's house free in Israel.

But we are not to be afraid of their terror….nor be troubled…like the men of Israel were when they heard Goliath.

(1 Pet 3:14 KJV) But and if ye suffer for righteousness' sake, happy are ye: and be not afraid of their terror, neither be troubled;
15 But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:


In their pride, they will speak like Goliath against His armies of the Word of Truth.


16 Having a good conscience; that, whereas they speak evil of you, as of evildoers, they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good conversation in Christ.
17 For it is better, if the will of God be so, that ye suffer for well doing, than for evil doing.

We are to earnestly “contend” for the faith…for the belief in the revealed Word of Truth.

(Jude 1:3 KJV) Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.

The ungodly men had crept into the churches “unawares”…but they shall be revealed by their “denying”…their opposition…their contradiction of the Truth. They shall "come up" like Goliath to ridicule the armies of God....His preachers of the Truth in this last day.


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.

The problem began long ago...So-called Christianity fell in love with Western ideals. Nowadays, it is difficult to determine whether most preachers burn with a love of the gospel of Yeshua or that of Americanism. They proudly display an idol in their sanctuaries in the guise of an American flag...Largely due to their sins in such regards, the churches will die with America in the next few years. God will eventually replace them and their follies with a religion of truth, wisdom, and righteousness, which pleases Him and leads humanity in the right direction....

Hi Senecharnix,

Thank you for your input Brother.

Indeed, it is difficult to discern the preachers who preach Christ in sincerity or of contention….envy and strife…which comes from covetousness.

(Phil 1:15 KJV) Some indeed preach Christ even of envy and strife; and some also of good will:
16 The one preach Christ of contention, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds:
17 But the other of love, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel.
18 What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in pretence, or in truth, Christ is preached; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice.

Covetousness knows no political boundaries….it is universal in its affliction…and it is ancient in origin. It is prevalent in many churches today around the world. It is the “abomination of desolation”….the “idol” that is placed in the holy place where it should not be. Covetousness is idolatry. Many are in search of “church growth” today….they are mainly interested in growing numbers….they preach “Christ of contention.” They covet each other’s “growth”….riches….thoughts. And it is currently difficult to know what is in their hearts….for they are preachers preaching Christ. Yet, they have led many astray…the “lost sheep.”

But this is where the preaching of the Word of Truth comes in at the last day. They shall expose what is in their hearts by their vocal opposition to it. The “man of sin” shall be revealed by his evil speaking out against the Truth in his religious, covetous, stubborn pride. They shall be many and not just “one” man as many suppose. The “man of sin” will be many….united in their opposition to the Truth. To “sin” is to speak out against the preaching of the Word of Truth in defense of their own evil works. The “man of sin” SPEAKS what comes out of his evil heart. The “sin” is with the “tongue” of evil opposition.

(Psa 39:1 KJV) To the chief Musician, even to Jeduthun, A Psalm of David. I said, I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my mouth with a bridle, while the wicked is before me.

Having a common enemy unites many men who would not be united otherwise. They will be corporately known as the “man of sin” by their unified opposition of the revealing of the Truth….just like the Pharisees and Sadducees were unified against Jesus in their vocal opposition. They feared for their power, their glory among men, their traditions, their money…..because the Truth was setting people free from their influence. History will repeat itself in the Christian churches.

(John 12:19 KJV) The Pharisees therefore said among themselves, Perceive ye how ye prevail nothing? behold, the world is gone after him.

Out of the heart of man comes evil speaking. Evil comes from within. The heart is the “bottomless pit.” The “beast” comes out of the “bottomless pit” to make war with the preaching of the Truth.

(Mark 7:21 KJV) For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,
22 Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness:
23 All these evil things come from within, and defile the man.

Out of the “abundance of the heart”….the “bottomless pit”…shall the mouth speak….the wild “beast.”

(Mat 12:34 KJV) O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.
35 A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things.

Out of the evil that is in the heart of the corporate “man of sin” shall he speak out in this last day. He shall speak evil of the Way of Truth and against those who will do the Truth.

36 But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.
37 For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.

The tongue is the “beast”…a wild beast…that can not be tamed.

James 3:2 KJV) For in many things we offend all. If any man offend not in word, the same is a perfect man, and able also to bridle the whole body.
3 Behold, we put bits in the horses' mouths, that they may obey us; and we turn about their whole body.
4 Behold also the ships, which though they be so great, and are driven of fierce winds, yet are they turned about with a very small helm, whithersoever the governor listeth.
5 Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth!

The tongue of the “man of sin” shall speak what evil is in his heart. The “beast” shall ascend (the tongue shall exalt itself) out of the “bottomless pit” (the evil that is in their hearts) and go into “perdition” (the judgment for doing so.) He will judged by his own evil words against the preaching of the Word of Truth. It shall set his life on “fire of hell” as judgment for his sins…his speaking out against the Truth.

6 And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell.

The “beast” is the tongue that can not be “tamed” by the preaching of the Truth. For every kind of beast in nature is tamed….but the wild “beast” of the man of sin can not be tamed. Their tongue will be unruly, evil and full of deadly poison….the wild, venomous “beast” that shall ascend out of the hearts of men (the bottomless pit) in this last day. It will be a wild "beast" against the Truth.

7 For every kind of beasts, and of birds, and of serpents, and of things in the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed of mankind:
8 But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.

Paul fought with “beasts” at Ephesus. He did not fight literal beasts….but fought a war of words against men who opposed his preaching of the Truth. Some had mocked him for his preaching.

(1 Cor 15:32 KJV) If after the manner of men I have fought with beasts at Ephesus, what advantageth it me, if the dead rise not? let us eat and drink; for to morrow we die.

Death and life are in the power of the tongue….and those that love it shall eat the fruit of it.

(Prov 18:21 KJV) Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.

The Pharisees spoke out against the testimony of Jesus. They demonstrated that they did not truly believe in the testimonies of Moses and the prophets by their opposition to the Truth.


(Rev 11:7 KJV) And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them.

It was their "hour"...the power of darkness. They had only won the "war" temporarily...to their own detriment.

(Luke 22:53 KJV) When I was daily with you in the temple, ye stretched forth no hands against me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness.


They had Moses and the prophets to listen to….their testimonies to truly believe in…but they did not.

(Luke 16:29 KJV) Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.
30 And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent.

Since they did not TRULY “hear” the testimony of Moses and the prophets, how would they believe in the preaching of Jesus?

31 And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.

And so they had been judged for their unbelief…their speaking out against Jesus…the Truth. The tongue shall set those who will oppose the Truth on the “fire of hell.” Their opposition has continued against Jesus to this day.The unbelieving "tongue" has set them on "fire"...the judgment.


(Luke 16:24 KJV) And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.

For a fool’s mouth is his destruction…..

(Prov 18:7 KJV) A fool's mouth is his destruction, and his lips are the snare of his soul.

Their house had been left desolate…..until the time comes when they will SAY….

(Luke 13:35 KJV) Behold, your house is left unto you desolate: and verily I say unto you, Ye shall not see me, until the time come when ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.

Every “tongue” shall confess that Jesus Christ is Lord….

(Phil 2:11 KJV) And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

But first the wild “beast” must be destroyed…..leaving those who have opposed Him over the Truth…humbled and broken. The proud, evil speaking man shall be humbled. This humbling process will be severe for those who will rise up against the preaching of the Word of Truth in this last day.

(Isa 2:11 KJV) The lofty looks of man shall be humbled, and the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down, and the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day.

The “gates of hell” shall not prevail…..the MOUTHS of prideful “religious” men shall not prevail against the preaching of the revealed Truth in this last day. Their religious glory and all of their church wealth shall descend. They shall be brought down and the might men of the churches shall be humbled. All those who will exalt themselves against the Truth shall be humbled….in a severe manner. Their own mouth shall invite tribulation and anguish into their own lives.

(Isa 5:14 KJV) Therefore hell hath enlarged herself, and opened her mouth without measure: and their glory, and their multitude, and their pomp, and he that rejoiceth, shall descend into it.
15 And the mean man shall be brought down, and the mighty man shall be humbled, and the eyes of the lofty shall be humbled:
16 But the LORD of hosts shall be exalted in judgment, and God that is holy shall be sanctified in righteousness.

It is better to keep the tongue from evil when one hears the Truth. It is better to depart from evil and do good. It is better for one to be slow to speak and quick to hear His revealed Truth. Slow to wrath against it…for the wrath of man works unrighteousness.

(Psa 34:13 KJV) Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile.
14 Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.

It is better to seek Him EARLY….and not LATER after one is judged for their unbelief in the Truth.

(Psa 63:1 KJV) A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah. O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;

We should LONG for His Truth….to see His power and glory in the “sanctuary”…in His Scripture of Truth. We are to see His knowledge in the Scriptures being revealed to us….it is better to seek His knowledge with all of our hearts FIRST thing.

2 To see thy power and thy glory, so as I have seen thee in the sanctuary.

It is better to praise Him with the lips than oppose His Truth. It is better to preach His Word of Truth…which is the meaning of praising Him….blessing Him. Preaching His wonderful works is the true praising of Him.

3 Because thy lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee.
4 Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name.
5 My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips:

When we hear the preaching of the revealed Truth in this last day….and will then know our sins…the knowledge of our ignorance of the preaching of erroneous things, we are to offer a “young bullock” for the sin. We are to put away our preaching of falsehoods that have kept the congregation in the yoke of bondage to religious man’s ways and thoughts.

(Lev 4:13 KJV) And if the whole congregation of Israel sin through ignorance, and the thing be hid from the eyes of the assembly, and they have done somewhat against any of the commandments of the LORD concerning things which should not be done, and are guilty;
14 When the sin, which they have sinned against it, is known, then the congregation shall offer a young bullock for the sin, and bring him before the tabernacle of the congregation.
15 And the elders of the congregation shall lay their hands upon the head of the bullock before the LORD: and the bullock shall be killed before the LORD.

How religious man receives the revealing of the Truth in this last day determines his judgment…..life or death. Death and life are in the power of the tongue….

(Prov 18:21 KJV) Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.

By our mouth are we saved…..if we should confess with our mouth the Lord Jesus….who is the revealing of the Truth in this last day. His interpretation of the Scriptures is the Truth. The Truth will be different than what religious man has been preaching the last 2000 years ago…and we are to believe in His Truth in this last day.

(Rom 10:8 KJV) But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;

The Scripture of Truth is brought to “life” through His interpretation….and we are to confess with the mouth that it is Truth….the Lord Jesus.

9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

With the heart, we are to believe His revealing of the Scripture of Truth unto righteousness….and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. It is the religious that need to confess with the mouth that it is the Truth when He reveals it to us. We are to preach this Truth...the confession.


10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.
13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

He sends His messengers out in this last day to preach that revealing of the Truth. They "confess" the Lord Jesus before men. He sends His preachers out to the churches to proclaim the good news of the Truth which saves man from the religious bondage of religious man.

14 How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?

His preachers of the Truth in this last day are His “feet”….the “feet” of Jesus.

15 And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!

Who will believe in their report? Who will believe that the Word of God is LIVING? It is no longer “dead” in the dusty, earthly minds of man who keeps it as a history book....in the sepulcher.

16 But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Esaias saith, Lord, who hath believed our report?

Who will be too busy to sit at the “feet” of Jesus to hear His Word of Truth? We are to hear HIS WORD...and not man's earthly wisdom of the Word.


(Luke 10:39 KJV) And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus' feet, and heard his word.

Many are like Martha…too busy in their church activities to care to hear. Their attention is focused on their building of church buildings, ministries, church things, etc.

40 But Martha was cumbered about much serving, and came to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone? bid her therefore that she help me.
41 And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things:

All those things that the “Martha” church works for are going to pass away but His knowledge will never pass away.

42 But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.

How we will receive the preaching of the Truth is how we shall be “justified” or “condemned.” By our words…our confession of the Truth…shall we be justified. By our words…speaking out against the Truth because it doesn’t conform to religious man’s teachings….shall we be judged. Life and death are in the power of the tongue.

(Mat 12:36 KJV) But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.
37 For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.

The tongue shall set those who will speak out against the Truth on FIRE of “hell”…or Gehenna. Fire will figuratively burn them in iniquity which shall humble them. Every knee shall bow.

(James 3:5 KJV) Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth!

A tongue is a “fire”…a world of iniquity…..wickedness burns as a “fire.”


6 And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell.
7 For every kind of beasts, and of birds, and of serpents, and of things in the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed of mankind:

By our words against His Truth shall we be condemned

8 But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.

His preachers will be those who have put on Christ Jesus in the Truth….who are to be made after the “similitude of God.” They are those preachers who will be sent out to the “world” of man’s religious organizations to preach His revealed Truth in this last day. Let us not “curse” them because of the preaching of the Truth.

9 Therewith bless we God, even the Father; and therewith curse we men, which are made after the similitude of God.

They will be His messengers that we are to “entertain”…to ponder what their preaching with all hospitality…even though it may seem like a “strange” teaching. They will be His messengers… His “angels” of the Truth.

(Heb 13:2 KJV) Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.

Let us not resist their preaching in our “religious” prideful, evil opposition. For by our words shall we be judged…the evil words of opposition.

(Rom 13:1 KJV) Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God.

For God will send His messengers of the revealed Truth for our GOOD…for our salvation. They will bring good tidings of joy. Those that will resist the power in their evil speaking against the Truth shall receive to themselves judgment.

2 Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation.
3 For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same:

He will send His preachers of the revealed Truth in this last day for our good….to bring good tidings of joy. It is for our GOOD!


4 For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil.

His ministers are to be His stars that will lead others of the church to His righteousness. Their preaching of the Truth shall “awaken” those who have fallen “asleep” in the envying, strife and hatred of religious man’s teachings….the “dust.” Some shall awaken to the Truth and will receive it with all belief and love…..the LIFE. Others will awaken to their prideful resistance to the Truth…and the shame and contempt that comes with it….DEATH.

(Dan 12:2 KJV) And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.
3 And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.

When we shall see the “stars” preaching the Truth, we are to rejoice in the understanding of the Truth. The “wise men” also saw the star in the east….they UNDERSTOOD. They rejoiced with exceeding great joy. The “star” leads others to His righteousness…Jesus…in the “morning” of the dawning of the Truth…in the “east.” "Saw"= to understand with the eyes of our understanding.


(Mat 2:10 KJV) When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.

When we will hear the preaching of the Truth…..we are to be like the Magi…and come into the “house.” We are to go into the Scriptures and see the Truth for ourselves. We shall “see” the Truth in God’s heavenly wisdom….. “Mary his mother.” We are to believe in the revealing of the Truth. We are to give up our own religious ways and thoughts when we “see” him….the Truth in the Scriptures.

11 And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense, and myrrh.

And we are to not return the way we came….we are to depart religious man’s bondage…never returning to that corruption.

12 And being warned of God in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed into their own country another way.

We are to be like those who were “noble” in Berea and receive the Word of Truth that is preached by His messengers…His “stars.” We are to receive the revealed Word of Truth with all “readiness of mind”….and also to search out the Scriptures daily to if those things are so. This is directly comparable to the “wise men” who saw His “star” (which represents a preacher of the Truth) in the east….which led them to the “house” that they entered into….(the Scriptures)…to see Jesus (the Truth.)

(Acts 17:10 KJV) And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea: who coming thither went into the synagogue of the Jews.
11 These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.

“Wise men” lay up His knowledge….while the mouth of the foolish is near destruction….because of his unbelief and opposition of the Truth

(Prov 10:14 KJV) Wise men lay up knowledge: but the mouth of the foolish is near destruction.

The wise in heart will receive His commandments….but a prating-against-the Truth fool shall fall.

(Prov 10:8 KJV) The wise in heart will receive commandments: but a prating fool shall fall.

The wise shall inherit His glory….for they shall preach His Truth. Shame shall be the promotion of fools who shall rise up in their prideful, religious ways and thoughts to speak out against the Truth.

(Prov 3:35 KJV) The wise shall inherit glory: but shame shall be the promotion of fools.

The wise shall inherit glory. When Christ is manifest to others through the preaching of the Truth, then we shall also appear with Him in glory. We preach the Truth as “stars” shining in the “night” of religious man’s ways and thoughts. We will shine His Truth to others by the Life that is in us.

(Col 3:4 KJV) When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.

When we will hear His concealed knowledge…the preaching of the Scripture of Truth, we are to be like “kings” and search out the matter in the Scriptures to see if it is so.

(Prov 25:2 KJV) It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honour of kings is to search out a matter.

His ministers…His “angels” of the Truth… are for our GOOD. They will bring good tidings of great joy…..the preaching of the Word of Truth in this “night” season of the church…while everyone is “asleep” in envying, strife and divisions.

(Luke 2:10 KJV) And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.

The revealed Truth is “born”….it first appears in the Scripture of Truth as a “sprout” of the Truth…which when it grows in our hearts shall unify us…as David unified all of Israel. He is the "Branch"...the "Sprout" of the Truth that shall grow in our hearts. Christ Jesus is that revealed Truth that shall save us from religious man’s prison of religious falsehoods.

11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.

We shall find His Truth in the Scriptures….wrapped in parables. The Truth has been wrapped up…concealed…until the appointed time of His revelation...which is announced by His messengers…His “angels”…His preachers of the revealed Truth.

12 And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.

His heavenly host preaches the Truth…..

13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,

His TRUE ministers shall preach for our GOOD. They will preach the “gospel of peace.” And those who will hear and believe shall know His peace and goodness.


14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.

And when we hear the Truth being preached….we are to search the Scriptures to see if this is so….like the Bereans. We are to go into “Bethlehem”…the “house of bread”….IN OTHER WORDS, the Scriptures…to see this thing which is come to pass. The Lord will make known these things unto us by His preachers of the Truth. How will we hear and believe without His preachers of the Truth (His “angels”) sent to preach good tidings of great joy?

15 And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us.
16 And they came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger.

And when we see the Truth being revealed in the Scriptures for ourselves, we are to make known “abroad the saying” of the Truth. What we see with the “eyes of our understanding,” we are to preach for others to hear…..the “bread” that shall feed His sheep.

17 And when they had seen it, they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning this child.

We are to be the “shepherds” who are to “FEED HIS SHEEP” what we see in the “house of bread”….Bethlehem...the Scripture of Truth.

18 And all they that heard it wondered at those things which were told them by the shepherds.

How will we “hear” without a preacher….an “angel”…a “messenger”...who will bring us the “good tidings” of JOY that shall be for ALL people?

(Rom 10:14 KJV) How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?

They are to be “sent”…as His messengers of the Truth…His “angels”….to bring “glad tidings of good things!” They will preach the “gospel of peace”...peace on earth.


15 And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!

The preachers that are “sent” in this last day is the “angel” of good tidings of great joy. They are those who will preach the gospel of peace. Compare:

(Luke 2:10 KJV) And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.

And we are to go into the “house”…. “Bethlehem”…the Scriptures…to see these things for ourselves so that we can also preach abroad for others to hear. His “angels”…His preachers of the Truth …shall bring His people “good tidings” by preaching the “gospel of peace.” They will “publish” salvation.

(Isa 52:7 KJV) How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth!

We shall sing as the angels did in that night sky over the shepherds. The whole multitude of the heavenly host shall sing. Moses and all of the prophets shall “sing” with a new meaning in the Light which is Christ Jesus. We shall sing also for we shall see “eye to eye”…we shall understand His knowledge as shown in the Scripture of Truth. His knowledge shall unify us in true PEACE, love and joy in the Spirit.

8 Thy watchmen shall lift up the voice; with the voice together shall they sing: for they shall see eye to eye, when the LORD shall bring again Zion.
9 Break forth into joy, sing together, ye waste places of Jerusalem: for the LORD hath comforted his people, he hath redeemed Jerusalem.
10 The LORD hath made bare his holy arm in the eyes of all the nations; and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God.

We are to depart from the religious Babylon of man so that we can be cleansed ….so that He may dwell among us in Truth and Spirit…..Emmanuel…. God with us.


11 Depart ye, depart ye, go ye out from thence, touch no unclean thing; go ye out of the midst of her; be ye clean, that bear the vessels of the LORD.
12 For ye shall not go out with haste, nor go by flight: for the LORD will go before you; and the God of Israel will be your rereward.

His Truth shall save us from the sins of religious men…his denominations, falsehoods, strife, envying, hatred, etc. Emmanuel…..God with us.

(Mat 1:23 KJV) Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.

We will not find the Lord Jesus….the revealed Truth at the “open sepulcher” of religious man. We will not find His revelation of the Truth (the LORD JESUS) in the current religious organizations of men….their preaching of falsehoods that keep men “asleep” in envying, strife and divisions.

(Luke 24:2 KJV) And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulchre.
3 And they entered in, and found not the body of the Lord Jesus.
4 And it came to pass, as they were much perplexed thereabout, behold, two men stood by them in shining garments:

We will not find the Living among the “dead”…among religious man’s dead teachings and dead works. Why seek Him in man’s current religious system?

5 And as they were afraid, and bowed down their faces to the earth, they said unto them, Why seek ye the living among the dead?
6 He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake unto you when he was yet in Galilee,

For their throat is an “open sepulcher”….preaching deceit….that bogs down the church in envy, strife and denominations. The Lord Jesus...the revealed Truth... is NOT there in religious man's words.


(Rom 3:13 KJV) Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips:
14 Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:
15 Their feet are swift to shed blood:
16 Destruction and misery are in their ways:
17 And the way of peace have they not known:
18 There is no fear of God before their eyes.

But instead we are to go into “Galilee”…the Scripture of Truth…to understand Him….to “see” Him. “Galilee” = a circle, wheel. The Scriptures are to turn or change from man’s religious earthly understanding…the darkness….into the Light of God…the spiritual testimony of Christ Jesus.

(Mat 28:10 KJV) Then said Jesus unto them, Be not afraid: go tell my brethren that they go into Galilee, and there shall they see me.

His Truth opens the eyes of our understanding…we are to “awaken” from the “dust” of religious man….to TURN from darkness to the Light.

(Acts 26:18 KJV) To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me.

He turns the Scriptures from the power of darkness ( the “wisdom” of man which brings envy, strife and division to the churches) to the kingdom of His dear Son ( the heavenly wisdom of God which brings peace, joy, unity, love to the churches.)

(Col1:13 KJV) Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:

We shall “see” Him in “Galilee”…the Scripture of Truth shall reveal…manifest forth…His glory. And those disciples…his learners, pupils…will believe on Him.

(John 2:11 KJV) This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested forth his glory; and his disciples believed on him.


His Truth shall bring us JOY...rejoicing in our hearts. The "new wine" of the Truth shall give our stone hearts JOY.



(John 2:8 KJV) And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast. And they bare it.
9 When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not whence it was: (but the servants which drew the water knew;) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom,

The "new wine" of the Truth has been kept hidden....until now...in this last day.

10 And saith unto him, Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept the good wine until now.

The "bread" of the Truth shall strengthen our hearts...

(Psa 104:15 KJV) And wine that maketh glad the heart of man, and oil to make his face to shine, and bread which strengtheneth man's heart.

As it says in Isaiah, He has made his grave with the wicked and the rich….the rich pastors and church leaders who do not preach the Truth. No deceit is in his mouth….but yet the ministers of “righteousness” preach falsehoods for the glory of man and his own wealth. They have kept His body in a “grave”…..WE ARE HIS BODY.

(Isa 53:9 KJV) 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 churches that are bogged down in envy, strife, divisions, hatred are in a “grave” so to speak. Those who hate each other are abiding in “death”…they are “asleep.” They are only “sleeping” though…and need to be “awakened” by the preaching of the Word of Truth. The “host”…the ministers of “righteousness”….are the tomb keepers…the guards of the prison that many are in. By their erroneous, earthly teachings has the “daily” sacrifice been taken away from many people’s hearts. The “daily” sacrifice is to love one another…it is the holy covenant we are to keep.

(Dan 8:11 KJV) Yea, he magnified himself even to the prince of the host, and by him the daily sacrifice was taken away, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down.

Many church leaders have cast Truth to the ground…..and they have practiced and prospered…..they have grown rich because of it.

12 And an host was given him against the daily sacrifice by reason of transgression, and it cast down the truth to the ground; and it practiced, and prospered.

But marvel not at this….the hour is coming in which all that are in the graves shall hear His voice. This is NOT LITERAL. This is speaking of the “grave” of envy, strife and hatred that many in the church are “asleep” in. His voice interprets the Scriptures for us….which gives us the knowledge to “awaken” and LEAVE the “grave” of man’s religious bondage. The Truth shall set us free….the preaching of the Word of Truth.

(John 5:28 KJV) Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice,

Those who will come forth in the belief of the revealed Truth shall stand up in true LIFE…..which is loving one another. Those who will stand up in their religious pride to contradict the Truth shall be judged.

29 And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.

As He HEARS….HEARS….HEARS….He judges. What is He to hear? How each man will respond to His revealing of the Truth. How will religious man respond to the preaching of the Word of Truth? In love and believe…..the confession of the Truth….or in outright rejection and opposition to it? As He HEARS, He judges.

30 I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me.

Those who will come forth from the “grave” of religious man shall do so in true LIFE because they will hear and DO the Word of Truth. And this is how we know that we have passed from “death” unto “life”….because we will TRULY love each other….love unfeigned.

(1 John 3:14 KJV) We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death.

Religious man who will not hear and believe in the Truth in this last day will open his mouth against it. His “throat” will be like an “open sepulcher” that we are to flee from.

(Psa 5:9 KJV) For there is no faithfulness in their mouth; their inward part is very wickedness; their throat is an open sepulchre; they flatter with their tongue.


They will rebel against His Truth...our Lord Jesus Christ.


10 Destroy thou them, O God; let them fall by their own counsels; cast them out in the multitude of their transgressions; for they have rebelled against thee.

Those who will flee from the “open sepulcher” of religious man shall rejoice greatly in His Truth…because they will have put their trust in Him rather than religious man’s dead teachings and oppositions to the Truth.

11 But let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice: let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them: let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee.
12 For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield.

We are to be like Mary Magdalene and the other Mary and “depart quickly” from the “sepulcher”….the mouths of religious men who will seek to delude us back into the “grave”. We are to receive the Truth with joy in this last day. Both Marys did so with the fear of God and great joy.

(Mat 28:8 KJV) And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy; and did run to bring his disciples word.
9 And as they went to tell his disciples, behold, Jesus met them, saying, All hail. And they came and held him by the feet, and worshipped him.
10 Then said Jesus unto them, Be not afraid: go tell my brethren that they go into Galilee, and there shall they see me.

We are to put away the “forward” mouth and perverse lips…FAR from us. Many religious men will want to speak out against the revealing of the Truth in this last day….because of their unbelief and hardness of hearts. We are to be slow to speak….and quick to listen to the preaching of the Truth.

(Prov 4:24 KJV) Put away from thee a froward mouth, and perverse lips put far from thee.

The mouth of the wicked….the mouth of the deceitful…will be opened against Him. As He HEARS, He judges. They will speak against the Truth….our Lord Jesus Christ.

(Psa 109:2 KJV) For the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful are opened against me: they have spoken against me with a lying tongue.
3 They compassed me about also with words of hatred; and fought against me without a cause.
4 For my love they are my adversaries: but I give myself unto prayer.
5 And they have rewarded me evil for good, and hatred for my love.

But Jesus is the TRUE “gardener”….as Mary assumed. As He HEARS, He judges.


(John 20:15 KJV) Jesus saith unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? whom seekest thou? She, supposing him to be the gardener, saith unto him, Sir, if thou have borne him hence, tell me where thou hast laid him, and I will take him away.

He will come to hew down every “tree” that will not bring forth good fruit toward His preaching of the revealed Truth in this last day. As He HEARS, He judges.

(Mat 3:10 KJV) And now also the ax is laid unto the root of the trees: therefore every tree which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.

He will come to “burn and devour His thorns and briers….” He is the "gardener."


(Isa 10:17 KJV) And the light of Israel shall be for a fire, and his Holy One for a flame: and it shall burn and devour his thorns and his briers in one day;

Those who will speak out against the preaching of the Truth in defense of their own prideful religious ways and thoughts shall be “burned.” For the “tongue” shall set his life on “fire” for his rebellion against the revealed Word of God. The religious proud shall be humbled. It is better to humbly receive the Truth with all “readiness of mind” than to suffer for speaking evil of the Way of Truth....the "thorns and briers." As He HEARS, He judges.


(Heb 6:8 KJV) But that which beareth thorns and briers is rejected, and is nigh unto cursing; whose end is to be burned.

And we shall know these men by their “fruits” that they shall bring forth against the preaching of the Truth. The preaching of the Word of Truth shall reveal what is in each man’s heart….whether good or bad.

(Mat 7:16 KJV) Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
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.

We are to let His words abide in our hearts in this last day…..and bring forth good fruit. We are to retain His preaching of the revelation of the Word of Truth within our hearts. We are to abide in Him.

(John 15:5 KJV) 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.

The “gardener” shall cast forth the branch that will not abide in His Truth. He is the vine and we are His “branches.” He will prune those branches who will not receive the love of His Truth. As He HEARS, He judges.

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.

As He HEARS, He judges. The wrath of man against the preaching of the Truth works not the righteousness of God. Religious man is to be slow to speak…slow to wrath… as he hears the preaching of the revealed Truth.

(James 1:19 KJV) Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:
20 For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.

He is to lay apart all those things he would think to speak in defense of his own religion. He is to receive the engrafted Word of Truth with meekness…which will eventually produce the fruits of true righteousness.

21 Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls.
22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.

Yet, there will be many that will not receive the love of the Truth. Many shall follow the “pernicious ways” of their preachers and church leaders who will deny the Lord who bought them. They shall speak evil of the Way of Truth….because it does not conform to what religious man has been preaching for many, many years.

(2 Pet 2:1 KJV) But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.
2 And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.
3 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.

We are His temple….the body of Christ.

(1 Cor 3:16 KJV) 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.

Many pastors and church leaders have “destroyed” the temple of his body by their preaching of falsehoods motivated by their covetousness. They have brought divisions, hatred, envy and strife within the church…which have scattered the many sheep in all different directions. Many are “asleep” because of religious man’s ways and thoughts. Yet, he shall raise His temple up….in the “resurrection”….the standing up of the Truth…in this last day.

(John 2:19 KJV) Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.
20 Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?

We are the temple of His body that has been “destroyed” because of covetous pastors and church leaders

21 But he spake of the temple of his body.

In this last day, the Spirit of Truth comes so that we may remember all that Jesus has said. He comes to preach the revealing of the Word of Truth so that we may believe in what the Scriptures are truly saying in the Spirit. The testimony of Jesus is the Spirit of prophecy…..it is the correct, spiritual interpretation of the Scriptures that we are to believe in over religious man’s errors. Believing in the revealed Truth shall “raise” us from the “death” of religious man’s divisions, hatred and strife. We shall be built into His spiritual temple….where no man can enter in and defile. The Truth shall set us free from the religious bondage of men….it shall build us into His temple.

22 When therefore he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this unto them; and they believed the scripture, and the word which Jesus had said.
23 Now when he was in Jerusalem at the passover, in the feast day, many believed in his name, when they saw the miracles which he did.

And if we hear and do His will, we can then help Him raise up the “foundations of many generations.” We can preach the Word of Truth….the foundation of the words of the prophets in their spiritual understanding. We are to be built upon the understanding of their words….in Christ Jesus…who is the Truth of their words.

(Isa 58:12 KJV) And they that shall be of thee shall build the old waste places: thou shalt raise up the foundations of many generations; and thou shalt be called, The repairer of the breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in.

He shall give us the Spirit of wisdom and revelation in the full knowledge of Him so that we can be His preachers of the Word of Truth….we can be “repairers of the breach….the restorers of paths to dwell in.”

(Eph 1:17 KJV) That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him:

He will make known to us the mystery of His will….by the revealing of the Word of Truth to us in this last day. We are to obtain an inheritance….to help gather together in ONE all things in Christ….the Truth. We are to help build His temple in the Truth…by preaching His revealed Word. We are His living temple that is to be built up in this last day.

(Eph 1:9 KJV) Having made known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself:
10 That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him:

That is our inheritance that we are to obtain….those who will first trust in Christ who is the unveiling of the Word of Truth. He is the Truth. We are to help gather all things together in the Spirit of Truth….the raising up of the temple of His body that has been ruined by covetous pastors and their falsehoods.

11 In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will:
12 That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ.
13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,

We are to help Him redeem His purchased possession…His church…by the preaching of the Word of Truth in this last day.

14 Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.

We are to be fellow laborers TOGETHER with God. We are to help Him build the temple…His people…in the revealed Word of Truth. We are to preach it so that others may be redeemed from the religious bondage that they are currently in.

(1 Cor 3:9 KJV) For we are labourers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, ye are God's building.

It is Paul’s gospel….the good tidings as revealed through Christ Jesus…that will help us “build” His temple upon the Word of Truth. Paul’s letters as interpreted by Christ Jesus is the “wise master builder.”

10 According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon.
11 For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

It is no coincidence that Paul’s occupation was a “tentmaker”…for through his letters shall the revelation of Jesus Christ build us into His spiritual tabernacle in this last day.

(Acts 18:3 KJV) And because he was of the same craft, he abode with them, and wrought: for by their occupation they were tentmakers.

It is no coincidence that Jesus was a “carpenter”…for he will build His church on the rock of the revelation of the Scripture of Truth from heaven.

(Mark 6:3 KJV) Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of James, and Joses, and of Juda, and Simon? and are not his sisters here with us? And they were offended at him.

Jesus is the true CARPENTER who will build His church upon the revelation of the Truth from the Father in heaven…the “rock” of the Truth. Flesh and blood man’s preaching is the “sand” where upon their houses will collapse.

(Mat 16:17 KJV) And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.

As the heavenly Carpenter, He will build His church upon the rock of the heavenly revelation of the Scripture of Truth. And the “gates of hell”…the mouths of men who will oppose this building….will not prevail.

18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

We are to be built through the heavenly understanding of Paul’s letters. There is much wisdom in Paul’s letters…

(2 Pet 3:15 KJV) And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you;

But the “unlearned and unstable” have wrested his writings for the last 2000 years which have kept the Truth hidden from men. These men who wrest his writings are the messengers of Satan…the “thorn in the flesh” of his letters.

16 As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.

Paul has desired to glory in the revealed Truth of his letters as revealed through Christ Jesus…..but he has “forbear” for now….until the appointed time.

(2 Cor 12:6 KJV) For though I would desire to glory, I shall not be a fool; for I will say the truth: but now I forbear, lest any man should think of me above that which he seeth me to be, or that he heareth of me.

These revelations of the Truth contained in Paul’s letters have been kept hidden by the ministers of Satan…those preachers who have wrested what he has written.

7 And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure.
8 For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me.

Paul has suffered many things in this last 2000 years….but the power of Christ shall rest upon him in this last day as the Lord Jesus Christ shall properly interpret Paul’s letters for our salvation…for our being built into a spiritual temple. Paul’s letters as interpreted by Christ Jesus is the “wise master builder” that shall bring us together in peace, unity, love as a spiritual building.

9 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

His gospel is not preached by the wisdom of man. The preaching of Paul’s letters in the wisdom of religious man is the “thorn in the flesh”…

(Gal 1:11 KJV) But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man.

But his gospel will be properly taught by the revelation of Jesus Christ in this last day…which is much different than what religious man has been preaching as “truth” for the last 2000 years.

12 For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.

His letters will come to “visions and revelations” of the Lord. Christ Jesus will use Paul’s letters to spiritually interpret the Scriptures so that we may know Him. There are hidden revelations in Paul’s letters.

(2 Cor 12:1 KJV) It is not expedient for me doubtless to glory. I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord.

There is the “mystery” of Christ that will be revealed in Paul’s letters by His interpretation of them. Religious man’s interpretation of Paul is the “thorn in the flesh.” We are to built up together….both Jew and Gentile…into ONE spiritual building where our spiritual sacrifices will be acceptable in Christ Jesus…the Truth. We are to worship Him in SPIRIT and TRUTH.

(Eph 3:1 KJV) For this cause I Paul, the prisoner of Jesus Christ for you Gentiles,
2 If ye have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which is given me to you-ward:
3 How that by revelation he made known unto me the mystery; (as I wrote afore in few words,
4 Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ)

It is according to Paul’s gospel AND the preaching of Jesus Christ….His interpretation of Paul’s gospel…that we shall be established….we shall be built. The interpretation of Jesus Christ of Paul’s letters shall reveal the mystery of the gospel which has been kept secret all these years.

(Rom 16:25 KJV) Now to him that is of power to stablish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began,

There is a mystery to be revealed in this last day. Paul’s letters as preached by Jesus Christ shall reveal the mystery of the gospel. Paul’s letters interpret the rest of the Scriptures….spiritually. And we are to believe in this revelation in this last day….the “obedience of faith.”

26 But now is made manifest, and by the scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, made known to all nations for the obedience of faith:
27 To God only wise, be glory through Jesus Christ for ever. Amen.

Where there is no “vision”…revelation…the people “perish.” But whoever will keep the revelation of His instruction in their hearts in this last day shall be happy.

(Prov 29:18 KJV) Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he.

Jesus Christ of the seed of David is raised from the “dead” according to his gospel. We are to be raised into a temple by the seed of the Word of Truth. We are to awaken from our “sleep” by the preaching of Paul’s letters in Christ Jesus…the spiritual Truth. David signifies the unity of the church. King David unified all of Israel…and so Christ Jesus who is the Truth shall unify all of us together in Him.

(2 Tim 2:8 KJV) Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel:

Jesus Christ is the seed of the Word of Truth that will be planted into our hearts in this last day by the preaching of the revealed Truth. He is to abide in us and we are to grow up in Him as a new man. We are to keep His seed of the Word of Truth within our hearts. This seed shall sprout within us via FAITH in the hearing of the Truth. Jesus is the “Branch” or “sprout” of the Truth in our hearts. It will grow up and bear fruit…the fruits of righteousness….in our lives.

(Jer 33:15 KJV) In those days, and at that time, will I cause the Branch of righteousness to grow up unto David; and he shall execute judgment and righteousness in the land.

The “Branch”…or “sprout” of the Truth… “shall grow up out of his place”…and He shall build the temple of Jehovah. We are that temple that is to be built in this last day. His Word of Truth is to be sown in our hearts and we are to grow up into His temple in true peace and unity.

(Zec 6:12 KJV) And speak unto him, saying, Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, Behold the man whose name is The BRANCH; and he shall grow up out of his place, and he shall build the temple of the LORD:
13 Even he shall build the temple of the LORD; and he shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and he shall be a priest upon his throne: and the counsel of peace shall be between them both.

The “seed” is the revealed Word of God…Christ Jesus. We receive the “seed” from the preaching of the Truth in this last day.

(Luke 8:11 KJV) Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.

And those who will keep His Word of Truth within their hearts…the “good ground... shall bring forth “fruits” of righteousness with patience. They will KEEP….KEEP…KEEP…what they have heard preached to them. They will keep it within their hearts and do it.

(Luke 8:15 KJV) But that on the good ground are they, which in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit with patience.

Blessed are they that hear the revealed Word of God and KEEP it.

(Luke 11:28 KJV) But he said, Yea rather, blessed are they that hear the word of God, and keep it.

(Prov 22:17 KJV) Bow down thine ear, and hear the words of the wise, and apply thine heart unto my knowledge.
18 For it is a pleasant thing if thou keep them within thee; they shall withal be fitted in thy lips.

The Word of God is the seed we are to sow….to preach His Truth to others. His revealed Word shall water the “earth” of our hearts…..the “good earth”…..which shall make it bring forth and “bud”…the “Branch” of Christ Jesus. God gives the “increase”…He will cause His Word to grow within us by FAITH. We are to grow up in Him and produce fruits of TRUE righteousness….as opposed to religious man’s works of “righteousness.”

(Isa 55:10 KJV) For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater:
11 So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.

We are to help God….to be fellow laborers of His. We are to preach the Word of Truth…. “planting” and “watering”….but it is God who finishes the building. He gives the “increase”…the growth…the Branch of the Truth. Faith is the gift of God that will cause the seed to “sprout” in our hearts.

(1 Cor 3:5 KJV) Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man?
6 I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase.
7 So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.
8 Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour.
9 For we are labourers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, ye are God's building.

Religious man has been reading the outward parable version of the Scriptures. But the Lord comes so that we may know the mysteries of the kingdom of God by revealing what the parables mean. …and we are to have FAITH in His interpretation of the mysteries of the Scriptures in this last day. The Son of God arrives so that we may know Him that is true. He comes to give us His knowledge by the preaching of the Word of Truth. The Truth shall set us free from religious man’s commandments and doctrines.

(1 John 5:20 KJV) And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.

He comes to give us the knowledge to understand the mysteries of the kingdom of God.

(Luke 8:10 KJV) And he said, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to others in parables; that seeing they might not see, and hearing they might not understand.
11 Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.

But some in the churches will hear the preaching of the Word of Truth in this last day but will not believe in it. They will have NO FAITH at all in it.

12 Those by the way side are they that hear; then cometh the devil, and taketh away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved.

The preaching of the Word of Truth shall be “trodden down” by those in the churches who will not believe in it. They will hear but not have FAITH in it. Instead they will trample the Son of God under their feet….who will come to give us God’s understanding of the Scriptures so we can be saved from man’s understanding. They will reject the preaching of the Word of Truth with disdain for it.

(Luke 8:5 KJV) A sower went out to sow his seed: and as he sowed, some fell by the way side; and it was trodden down, and the fowls of the air devoured it.

Rather than believing, they will speak out against the Truth….which is to “sin” willfully after they have heard the knowledge of the Truth....the "seed." To speak evil of something or someone is to “sin” with the mouth.

(Heb 10:26 KJV) For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,
27 But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.
28 He that despised Moses' law died without mercy under two or three witnesses:

They will have “trodden under foot the Son of God”……they will have “trodden down” the seed which is the revealed Word of God.

29 Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace?

The Lord shall judge His people who will do such things.

30 For we know him that hath said, Vengeance belongeth unto me, I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people.

God shall send them a “strong delusion” that they will believe a lie because they will not have received the love of the revealed Truth that they might be saved. The “fowls of the air” shall devour what was “trodden down” by them…..the seed of the revealing of the Word of God.

(2 Th 2:9 KJV) 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.
11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:

They will not have believed in the preaching of the Word of Truth in this last day. Instead, they will love their own religious ways and thoughts…with all of its strife, envying and hatred and covetousness.

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

They will continue to walk after their own religious ways and thoughts….while despising His preaching. They will despise His “government” over their hearts. They will not be afraid to speak evil of those who will be preaching His Truth…..speaking evil of “dignities.”

(2 Pet 2:10 KJV) But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous are they, selfwilled, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities.

The “fowls of the air” shall devour the seed that was trampled under foot by them. False teachers are the “fowls of the air” who come preaching their covetous words.

(2 Pet 2:1 KJV) But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.

Many shall follow them….having the “seed” devoured by the “fowls of the air.” They shall speak evil of the preaching of the Word of Truth...the Way of Truth.


2 And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.

They shall deceive through COVETOUSNESS….with feigned words…those who will not have FAITH in the preaching of the Word of Truth in this last day.

3 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.

They will not “endure sound doctrine”….they will not put up with the preaching of the Word of Truth in this last day. Instead, they will “heap to themselves teachers” teaching what they want to hear….the “fowls of the air.”

(2 Tim 4:3 KJV) 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;

They shall turn their ears away from the revealing of the Truth…..

4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.

They will not consent to “wholesome words”…the preaching of the revealed Word of Truth….the words of our Lord Jesus Christ. They will not believe in it when they hear it.

(1 Tim 6:3 KJV) 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,

They will be destitute of the Truth….because they will have trodden down the Word of Truth under their feet and the “fowls of the air” shall devour it from their hearts. They will not receive the love of the Truth and will be sent a strong delusion so that they will believe a lie: supposing that GAIN IS GODLINESS.

5 Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself.

The “fowls of the air” = false Christs and false prophets who come to devour the seed of the Word of Truth from their hearts.

(Mark 13:22 KJV) For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall show signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect.

Their “signs and wonders” are their increasing riche$. Their churche$ grow bigger, their ministrie$ enlarge, their collection plate$ are full of money….etc. Be not overawed in their “signs and wonders”…..when the “glory of their houses” are increased. This is of the “strong delusion” so that they may believe a lie because they will have not received the love of His Truth in this last day. They will suppose that gain is godliness and therefore put their trust in their riches instead of the Truth.

(Psa 49:16 KJV) Be not thou afraid when one is made rich, when the glory of his house is increased;
17 For when he dieth he shall carry nothing away: his glory shall not descend after him.
18 Though while he lived he blessed his soul: and men will praise thee, when thou doest well to thyself.
19 He shall go to the generation of his fathers; they shall never see light.

They will not understand because the seed of the Word of Truth will have been removed from their hearts by their riches…their covetousness….their erroneous teachers. They will not understand because of their lack of faith in the hearing of the Truth. Even what they think they have will be taken from them.


20 Man that is in honour, and understandeth not, is like the beasts that perish.

If riches increase, set not your heart upon them.

(Psa 62:10 KJV) Trust not in oppression, and become not vain in robbery: if riches increase, set not your heart upon them.

He that will trust in his riches shall fall. The lie is to suppose that gain is godliness….that puts your trust in your church riches instead of God.

(Prov 11:28 KJV) He that trusteth in his riches shall fall: but the righteous shall flourish as a branch.

Though he makes himself rich, he has nothing.

(Prov 13:7 KJV) There is that maketh himself rich, yet hath nothing: there is that maketh himself poor, yet hath great riches.

Riches shall fly away as an eagle toward heaven….the “fowls of the air” shall devour the seed of the Word of God leaving one truly destitute of the Truth. Even what they think they have shall be taken from them.


(Prov 23:5 KJV) Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not? for riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven.

We are to incline our hearts unto His testimonies….His preaching of the revealed Truth in this last day….and NOT to covetousness.

(Psa 119:36 KJV) Incline my heart unto thy testimonies, and not to covetousness.

Let’s not keep the seed of the Word of Truth by the “way side.” Let us keep it within our hearts continually so that it will take root and spring up within our lives.

(Mat 13:4 KJV) And when he sowed, some seeds fell by the way side, and the fowls came and devoured them up:

Let’s not keep it in the “streets” of our lives….but let it in to our hearts….in FAITH. Let us rejoice at the receiving of the Truth.

(Luke 13:26 KJV) Then shall ye begin to say, We have eaten and drunk in thy presence, and thou hast taught in our streets.
27 But he shall say, I tell you, I know you not whence ye are; depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity.

The wisdom of God utters her voice in the “streets.” She cries "without"....outside of our hearts.


(Prov 1:20 KJV) Wisdom crieth without; she uttereth her voice in the streets:

Today, if we hear His voice in the “streets,” He stands at the door and knocks. Let us open the door of our hearts and let Him in. Let us receive the Word of Truth with faith…with joy…with love.

(Rev 3:20 KJV) Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
