MISSION STATEMENT

We Have One Sole Mission:


TO DO THE GREATEST COMMISSION IN ALL
THE HISTORY
OF THE WORLD

This covers well defined, clear,


and simple things to do:

• To Proclaim THE GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD again


to all the peoples speaking different languages. To them who
inhabit and dwell in different countries, nations, and nation-
states. To proclaim it to their kings and monarchs, their top
leaders in the Eastern Hemisphere, (Rev. 10:11).

• To bring the EVERLASTING GOSPEL into these vast lands and


continents, over many mountains, across oceans, and seas,
from the space above, and the space below, (Mat 28:18-20; Mk
16:15-18; Lk 24:46-49).
• To Preach, by the spoken word, the Good News of Christ’s
return to establish the KINGDOM OF GOD (Mat 24:14), that
will reign and rule the whole world from the eternal capital city
of Jerusalem, (Jer 3:17; Zech 14:3-9; Obad 21; Isa 2:2-4).

• To PUBLISH, by the written word, the Good Tidings of the end


of this present evil world. And the beginning of the NEW
WORLD coming (Mk 13:10; Isa 52:7), First for a thousand
years. To restore the original GARDEN OF EDEN planetwide.

6
To be followed by the RESURRECTION OF THE DEAD, all
rising into a worldwide PARADISE. And ALL to live for a
hundred years. And then forever in the New Heaven and the
New Earth. To spread to all the Universe, (Mark 13:10; Acts
3:21; Rev 5:10; 20:4; Isa 65:20; Rev 20:11-15; Rev 21:1-7).

• To announce the arrival of the New Order of The Ages under


the DIVINE GOVERNMENT OF GOD RULED BY THE KING
of kings and LORD of lords, (Isa 9:6-7; Zech 14:3-9; Isa 2:2-4);
assisted by 144,000 immortal kings and priests, (Rev 14:1).
The Kingdom of God will rule over the remnants of the Great
Tribulation and the 7 Last Plagues, one-tenth of the world’s
population (Isa 6:11-13; 24:1-21; 26:19; Mat 24:21-22; Rev
6:4, 8; 8:11; 9:11, 15), who will be left alive, and considered
worthy to be taught God’s Word, God’s Will, God’s Way, and
do God’s Work, (Isa 2:1-4), and understand the deep things of
God. All working together cheerfully and joyfully to build the
civilization of the Millennium under God, to shine in truth and
in righteousness (Isa 26:9), and in peace (Isa 32: 17-18).

• To TEACH the pure WORD of GOD. To announce that the


Good News of True Salvation is now being fully PREACHED
and PUBLISHED among all the Gentiles. To bear the
wonderful Good News that the door to the Gentiles has now
been opened wide by the Captain of Salvation, the Author and
Finisher of the Faith, the CHRIST of GOD, (Acts 14:27; 18:6;
28:28; Col. 1:27).

• To make it known to them that their true hope is in CHRIST


JESUS. To be PROCLAIMED to all of them without fail that
the hope, and TIMES of the Gentiles is soon to be fulfilled,
(Mat 28:19; Rom 11:11, 12, 13, 18; 15:16; Eph 3:6; 2 Tim.
1:11; Lk 21:24).

• To finally make known, reveal, make crystal clear, that the


ULTIMATE FINAL DESTINY OF MAN IS TO BE BORN AGAIN
INTO THE GOD FAMILY AND KINGDOM, OF GOD, BORN OF
THE SPIRIT, BORN OF GOD, IMMORTAL, ONE IN GOD, (Gen
1:26-27; Jn 3:3-21; Jn 17:21).

7
• To carry the WARNING, and for it to be a WITNESS to these
eastern nations.

• To DECLARE the arrival of the PROPHESIED DISTRESS and


TUMULT among the nations, (Col 1:28; Acts 1:8). That this
shall be made intense by the arrival of the PROPHESIED
worldwide DECEPTION, (Mat 24:4-5; 11:23-26).

• To sound the trumpet and push the button of the alarms of


WAR, even as the world is swamped with RUMORS OF WARS,
(Mat 24:6-7).

• To WARN and TELL to the peoples of the East that the FOUR
HORSEMEN of the Apocalypse now rides with ferocious vigor.
Their long journeys across the millennia beginning from inside
of the GARDEN OF EDEN launched by the lying evil and
wicked serpent,, and will soon climax in the destruction of the
wicked one and his legions as evil and wicked, that old serpent
Satan the devil and his deceived fallen angels, (Rev 6:2
{white}; 6:4 {red}; 6:5 {black}; 6:8 {pale}.

• To announce the arrival of the prophesied EARTHQUAKES, of


FAMINES, of PESTILENCES, and ALL THESE shall be the
BEGINNING OF SORROWS, (Mat 24:7-8).

• To warn of the presence of the prophesied FALSE


PROPHETS, who, from among them, the many will look to as
unto gods, (Mat 24:1, 23-28).

• That the Work of God - 21st Century, is now here. Having


been raised by the Living Christ to commence the great
beginnings of this phase of the Work of God. ”Because a
short work will the Lord make upon the earth,” and for us His
loyal servants, a short time to do it in, (Rom 9:28).

• That we are NOT out to try to convince, NEITHER to forcibly


try to convert anybody, or anyone, anywhere, anytime. Yet we
must, as commanded by the Apostle and High Priest of our
Profession, teach all men everywhere to repent for the
remission of sins, and to do all things that Christ the Son of
God has commanded us. (Mat 28:19-20; Lk 24:47).
8
• That we earnestly teach and actively practice THE WAY OF
PEACE, (Mat 5:9; I Tim 2:2; Jas 3:17). For the world lost
knowledge of the way of peace (Rom 3:17; Isa 59:8).

• That we enthusiastically TEACH and faithfully PRACTICE the


Way to LOVE GOD with all our heart, our soul, and our mind,
with all our strength, and with all our understanding, (Mat
22:37; Mk 12:30, 33; Lk 10:27).

• That we sincerely teach, and continually practice THE WAY TO


LOVE OUR NEIGHBOR AS WE LOVE OURSELVES, (Mat
5:43; 19:19; 22:39; Mk 12:31; Lk 10:27; Rom 13:9; Gal 5:14;
Jas 2:8).

• That we diligently teach and zealously practice HOW TO HAVE


TRUE SUCCESS now in this time, and in the world to come,
SPIRITUAL SUCCESS with EVERLASTING LIFE, (Mat 6:33;
Mk 10:28-30; Jn 13:17; Isa 58:13-14).

• That we seriously teach and lovingly practice turning back the


hearts of the fathers to the children, and the hearts of the
children to their fathers, (Mal 4:6).

• That we gently, tenderly, patiently FEED and NOURISH


SPIRITUALLY THE FLOCK for whom Christ The Redeemer,
the Lamb of GOD died, and purchased with His own blood,
(John 21:15, 16, 17; Acts 20:28; I Pet 5:2).

• That we compassionately, mercifully, and so kindly HEAL


THE SICK, (Lk 9:1,2; 10:9), when we encounter them as we
go our way to proclaim the Gospel of the Kingdom of God.

• That we do practice pure religion undefiled before God and


make visits and care for the helpless orphans, the fatherless,
and the widows in their affliction, (Jas 1:27).

• That we point to the nations and its peoples, and families, that
the Eternal Creator God has left a window open for the
blessing of health and prosperity to be known if they would be
glad and sing for joy, and PRAISE THE GOD OF CREATION
9
for all His wonderful works! That they would learn to PRAY
and PRAISE the Everlasting LORD, (Ps 67:1-7; Ps 147:1-20;
148:1-14; 149:1-9; 150;1-6; Mat 26.30; Mk 14.26; Eph 5.19;
Col 3:16; Jas 5:13).

• Ultimately, we have to open the minds of the multitude to the


difference between the holy, and the profane, (Ezek 22:26;
44:23), to the end that we can turn many to righteousness,
(Dan 12:3). Not by might, nor by power but by God’s Spirit,
(Zech 4:6). For this is God’s Will. By His Word. On His Way. To
fulfill His Work.

All these, to FEARLESSLY and COURAGEOUSLY PREPARE THE


WAY for the return of the GREAT GOD, our LORD and SAVIOR JESUS
CHRIST, King of kings, and Lord of lords, (Mat 24:14; Mk 13:10;
Titus 2:13; Rev 17:14; 19:16).

THIS IS THE VISION THAT THE LORD JESUS CHRIST INSPIRES


FOR THE WORK OF GOD – 21ST CENTURY TO DO IN THE ENTIRE
EASTERN HEMISPHERE.

THE WORK OF GOD-21ST CENTURY
PROCLAIMING THE GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD
MINISTERING TO ITS MEMBERS SCATTERED ABROAD

email address: theworkofgod.21stcentury@gmail.com

Dear Friend,

RECEIVE YOUR GIFT OF DIVINE LIGHT FOR TOTAL


ENLIGHTENMENT FROM THE ETERNAL CREATOR GOD OF THE
ENTIRE UNIVERSE.

HE DESIGNED THE WHOLE CREATION TO BE INHERITED BY THE


HUMAN RACE. ALL THE HUMAN FAMILIES HAVE THEIR
HERITAGE IN EVERYTHING THAT THE DIVINE MAKER OF ALL
THINGS GOOD, BEAUTIFUL AND WONDERFUL EVER MADE. THE
ALL MERCIFUL, BLESSED SOVEREIGN OF ALL THE WORLDS
LOOKS AT OUR PLANET EARTH, HIS SHINING JEWEL ORBITING IN
OUTER SPACE AROUND THE CREATED SUN. HE SEES NO
BOUNDARIES ON ALL THE LANDS AND SEAS. HE SEES NO BLACK
SKIN. NEITHER YELLOW. NOR WHITE. NOT ANY BROWN. HE
CONSIDERS NO RACIAL DIVIDES. HE SEES NOT RICH MAN’S
GOLD, NEITHER POOR MAN’S PENNIES IN THEIR HANDS. HE SEES
NOT THE SCEPTRES AND CROWNS ON THE HEADS, NEITHER THE
PLOWS AND SPEARS HELD BY THE ARMS. NONE IN ALL THESE
THAT HE CREATED IN HIS IMAGE, IN HIS LIKENESS. HE LOOKS
INTO THEIR HEARTS!

ULTIMATELY, THE SONS OF MAN, BORN OF WOMAN, WERE MADE


TO BECOME THE CHILDREN OF GOD, THEY WERE MADE TO
INHERIT, AND TO TAKE POSSESSION, OF ALL THE CREATED
WORLDS, AND THEREAFTER, BY THE GRACE AND WILL OF GOD,
ESTABLISH PEACE, AND SPREAD THE INFINITE BLESSINGS OF
HAPPINESS AND JOY FOREVERMORE IN ALL OF THEM!
BEGINNING WITH THE NEW WORLD SOON TO COME. SEE! IT IS
JUST ACROSS THE NOT DISTANT HORIZON. THERE, LOOK, IT IS
JUST AROUND THE BEND!

11
SO AMAZING, INDEED! FAR BEYOND AND SO WAY ABOVE ALL
THAT THE CREATIVE IMAGINATIONS OF SCIENCE FICTION
WRITERS COULD POSSIBLY VISUALIZE. BACKWARDS AND
FORWARDS, IN INFINITY NO FUTURIST COULD EVEN BEGIN TO
CONCEIVE: THE GLORY AND WONDER OF THE WORLD TO COME!

NO REVERED MYSTICS OF THE ORIENT, OF PROFOUNDEST


DISCERNING, WOULD CONDESCEND TO EVER GLIMPSE INTO
THESE EVERLASTING PROMISES AND VERITIES AS THE TRUE
REALITY. NO PHILOSOPHERS OF THE WEST, OF MOST
RESPECTED REPUTE AND KEENEST INTELLECT, COULD
RATIONALIZE THESE UNDENIABLE ABSOLUTES. NO WORLD
RENOWNED SCIENTIST OF SHARPEST ACUITY IN EVERY AGE
COULD MEASURE NEITHER QUANTIFY, LET ALONE QUALIFY: THE
AWESOME MARVELS OF THE MIND AND WISDOM OF GOD, HIS
EVERLASTING MERCY, AND HOW, BY HIS WORD AND COMMAND,
THE WHOLE UNIVERSE CAME TO BE.

THESE PIERCING INVISIBLE PRINCIPLES AND INVIOLABLE


EDICTS, THESE DECREES AND EXPRESSIONS OF DIVINE WILL
DRAWN FROM THE HOLY WRIT SET INTO THESE WORDS AND
SPOKEN TO YOU ARE SPIRIT, AND THEY ARE LIFE.

THESE ARE SENT FOR YOU AND TO YOU. THEY SHALL NOT
RETURN TO THE DIVINE AND HOLY ONE THAT SENT THEM
EMPTY, NEITHER VOID. THE ORDAINED PURPOSE FOR WHICH
THEY WERE SENT WILL BE FULFILLED. THIS IS THE INVIOLATE
WILL OF GOD.

FINALLY, THE MEANING OF MEANING, WHICH ANSWER HAS


BEEN SOUGHT FOR AGES, CAN NOW BE UNDERSTOOD. THIS, NO
WALKING AVATAR BEFORE, TODAY, AND HEREAFTER EVER DID,
AS CRYSTAL CLEAR, EVER LOGICALLY EXPLAIN, OR COULD,
CONFIDENTLY, TRUTHFULLY PROCLAIM. NO SCHOLAR OF
DEEPEST RESEARCH COULD THE GLORIOUS TRUTH EVER FOUND.
NO HISTORIAN OF THE PROFOUNDEST BREADTH AND DEPTH
COULD EVER FULLY UNDERSTAND AND TO ORDINARY LAYMAN
EXPOUND, LEAST OF ALL: WHY HISTORY KEEPS REPEATING
ITSELF: THE SHOCKING TRUE STORY OF HOW THE FAMILY OF
MAN TURNED BACK AND DEPARTED FROM THE PRESENCE OF
12
GOD FROM THE BEGINNING AND WENT THEIR WAY. MAN’S
PROUD WAY. MAN’S DEFIANT DUALIZED THOUGHTS FROM
DUALIZED MINDS. MAN’S FLAWED, STUBBORN WILL. MAN’S
VAIN WORKS. ALL UNDER THE SWAY OF SATAN THE DEVIL, FOR
SIX THOUSAND YEARS. IN ALL ITS ENTIRETY. THAT IT MUST
NOW COME TO AN END. TOTALLY UPROOTED. FULLY BURNED UP.
AND THE 1,000 YEARS OF GLORIOUS CIVILIZATION UNDER THE
ETERNAL CREATOR GOD AND HIS KINGDOM MUST SOON BEGIN!

THE HIGHEST HEIGHTS IN THE ENTIRE COSMOS TAUGHT BY THE


MOST ACCOMPLISHED YOGI, THE ENLIGHTENED GURU, THE
REVERED MASTER, THE HONORED EARTHLY PATRIARCHS OF ALL
RELIGIOUS FAITHS, THE FOREMOST NEW AGE UTOPIAN
DREAMERS. THE WORSHIPPED SHAMANS, HAVE THEIR LIMITED
CORRESPONDENCE OF THE MIND AND SPIRIT ROVING AND
REVOLVING IN THE MYSTICAL AND SECULAR REALM AND FAINT
LIGHT OF THE SURROUNDING CREATED EXISTING COSMOS. ALL
OF THESE WHO HAVE LED MANKIND FOR SIX THOUSAND YEARS
SEE THE COLLECTIVE RESULT. THE FINAL BOTTOMLINE. THE
REPEATING CYCLES OF THE RISE AND FALL OF CIVILIZATIONS
WITHOUT FAIL. YOU SEE IT YOURSELF. BLESSED ARE YOU, FOR
ALL OF THESE HAVE LONGED TO KNOW AND SEE WHAT YOU NOW
READ AND HOLD IN YOUR HANDS, AND COULD NOT, AND HAVE
NOT!

FOR THESE ARE DELIVERED FROM ABOVE BEYOND THE DEFINED


BORDERS OF THE CREATED UNIVERSE. NOW REVEALED, AND
MADE KNOWN FROM THE DIVINE DIMENSION OF
UNAPPROACHABLE LIGHT WHERE THE EVERLASTING GOD
DWELLS.

NOW ALL THESE TERRESTRIAL HIGH THINGS MUST CEDE AND


YIELD TO THE EVERLASTING GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD
WHICH UNVEILS THE FULL PANOPLY OF THE DEEP THINGS OF
GOD AND THE
GLORIOUS HEAVENLY TRUTH THAT SETS MAN FREE. FREE FROM
SPIRITUAL CAPTIVITY. LIBERATED FROM SPIRITUAL BONDAGE
BY THE WICKED ONE, “THE GREAT DRAGON…THAT OLD
SERPENT, CALLED THE DEVIL, AND SATAN, WHICH DECEIVETH
THE WHOLE WORLD,” (REV. 12:9, 10; 20:3, 10).

13
READ THIS THEN. SKIM IT NOT.

REREAD IT. SLOWLY, IF YOU WILL. AT YOUR OWN PACE.

FOCUS FOR A TIME. ONE PART AT A TIME.

MEDITATE ON THESE IN YOUR MORNINGS.

CONTEMPLATE ON IT AT NOON.

DWELL UPON THESE IN THE EVENTIDES.

THEN LINK THEM UP FOR THEY FIT PERFECTLY WELL.

THEN YOU WILL SEE THE WONDERFUL WHOLE.

THERE IS NO TIME LIMITATION.

THERE IS NO ONE TO PUSH YOU ON.

AND DO PRAY. THE ANCIENT PROPHET DANIEL, ERSTWHILE


PRESIDENT OF ALL THE GOVERNORS OF THE KINGDOM OF
BABYLON, UNDER KING NEBUCHADNEZZAR, OF THE GREATEST
EMPIRE IN HISTORY, PRAYED THREE TIMES A DAY. IT WAS THE
KEY TO HIS AWESOME SUCCESS. YOU, ALSO, COULD.

NOW IT IS IN YOUR HANDS. IT IS YOURS. CHERISH IT AS UNTO A


TREASURE PRICELESS BEYOND COUNTING. FOR NOW, THE TRUE
RICHES AND THE SECRET OF IMMORTALITY IS IN YOUR HANDS,
IT HAS ARRIVED IN YOUR LIFE. AT LAST! NOW SEIZE IT. NEVER,
NEVER, NEVER LET IT GO!

THE GIVER OF LIFE AND LIGHT SENDS THIS DIVINE BEAM. THIS
SACRED FIRE. THIS HOLY TORCH. TO ENTER YOUR MIND'S EYE.
INTO YOUR INNERMOST BEING. INTO THE WHOLE FABRIC OF
YOU, A LIVING SOUL. FOR YOUR INEVITABLE UNDERSTANDING.
AT YOUR OWN PACE. ONLY BETWEEN YOU AND HiM. IS THIS NOT
WONDERFUL?

WHEN THE TIME AND MOMENT OF YOUR ILLUMINATION COMES,


YOU WOULD KNOW. FOR THE TOTAL BRIGHTNESS IN YOUR
14
SPLENDID VISION OF LIFE AND THE SPIRIT MAGNIFIES AND
EXPANDS BEYOND MEASURE. FOR NOW IN THIS TIME IT WILL
FILL YOU. YOUR SPIRITUAL VESTMENTS ARE NOW IN YOUR
HANDS. YIELD. WEAR IT INSIDE OF YOU. PUT IT ON OUTSIDE OF
YOU! YOUR SPIRITUALLY DEAD STATE QUICKENS AT THAT
MOMENT WITH CELESTIAL POWER THE LIKE OF WHICH YOU
HAVE NEVER KNOWN.

MAY YOU BE TRULY BLESSED MORE AND MORE, AS YOU


ALREADY ARE.

PREFACE

T he amazing story of mankind is stored in a big part in


the storied chronicles of the churches of mankind.
Whether they be in quaint little villages. Charming towns.
Cities of whatever size and configuration.
There the
churches have been formed. From the proverbial mustard
seed, in most cases. And they grew in size and form along
with the growth and size of their place of residence and
locale. In many, there are but a few churches, and small
number of members. In a few, there is the one dominant
big church of numerous members, surrounded by low-
profile other churches with different names, and small
numbers of members.

The traditions of men have been cultivated and formed in


the churches originally formed. Homegrown, these
traditions are loved. The people in them stick to them,
and protect it with their lives and fortunes. Thereby, they
hate, and are repelled by, tradition-breakers.

29
The traditions they derived from their sacred scriptures are
kept by them with much awe. Much reverence. With
fidelity. And loyalty. The tradition they
received from their forefathers. That went down from
generation to generation. The latter are held in cultic
affection. They live and die for these traditions.

And so the saying: “What’s good enough for my father,


and his father before him. is good enough for me.”

They have traditionally wedded their homegrown


traditions with the faith they believed was derived from
their holy scriptures that they have agreed to use. Whether
personally, or as a church. As an assembly, or a
congregation, of like-minded believers in the worship of
their chosen deity, god, or gods..

They have embellished their assemblies, presided by their


chosen religious leaders. They are seen garbed in
extraordinary vestments, that seems holy to them. They
carry out their religious services with solemn rites and
emblems.
They intone memorized prayers in numbers of times.
They use organs played with solemn sounds. With lofty
notes of music. With stirring hymns.

30
So, beware, if you would be one who would dare! Your
MESSAGE AND THE TRUTH YOU BEAR AND
BRING OUGHT TO BE, AND MUST BE, THE REAL
TRUTH. Lest you come in bearing nebulous doctrines.
And cause to fall many to the ditch of spiritual confusion
and destruction.

This duality is intrinsically, even tacitly, believed and


retained, in all the churches.

They devised this dichotonomous arrangement. For they


live as mortals, flesh and blood, born of women. The
demands and necessities of their continued survival, their
being, and their living, forced them to do so. They
learned, over time, how to master this dual skill, almost
schizophrenic approach in their mind and being.

For is not man a reasoning, thinking one (animal, to vocal


evolutionists and majority of published scientists. Human,
to majority of the others)?

Religion and church are intertwined from way back in


ancient times.

The community of believers throughout the ages generally


fellowship with each other, particularly those that share
the same body of beliefs, and traditions.

31
Hence, the arising and existence today of myriad
denominations called churches.

{Today’s freedom of religion, attained with the sacrifice,


blood, sweat, and tears of those who bravely fought for it
in the religious wars, has its blessings and upside. The
downside comes when the believers are misled and
deceived by charismatic men who profess to be chosen by
God. The long term harm this kind of false teachings by
false teachers, however sincere, is incalculable}

They diverged over time. They were influenced by


dominant personalities who imposed their claimed
revelations. Their claimed visions. And men looking for
leaders and a hope that comes with it, went and followed
these. They gave this, or that, one their allegiance. Their
devotion. Along with their fortune. They were deceived by
these alleged deliverers. False messiahs. False prophets.
They were swept by these militant charlatans, pied pipers,
and verbose speakers. Swept by their charisma. Spellbound
by their thespian talents.

Over time, as they became multitude, they became


adversaries. Each side willed to impose their persuasions to
others.

32
They went and formed different manners of worship, and
believed in myriad gods. These insisted their god is God.
And they adapted nomenclatures to establish their
different identity from the others, now competitors and
rivals.

They built architectural structures to fellowship and


worship in.

They called them chapels. Cathedrals. Basilica. Temples.


Tabernacles. Mosques. Minstrels. Houses of worship.
Synagogues. And more.

IS THERE A ONE TRUE CHURCH?

There could only be one Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.


And He built His Church. This be the household of
GOD.

It has been two millennia. His Church has been


persecuted thru all that twenty centuries. Continual
hateful, vicious, violent attempts to extinguish it has come,
and gone. And will return. Till the very return of the Lord
Jesus Christ. The adversary, Satan, the devil, that old
dragon, never stops. Along with his wicked minions.

Espionage and infiltration has been used.

33
Pre-meditated takeover, and watering down of all the true
doctrines of God, even denying them altogether, has been
made.

The Church that Jesus, the Christ of God, built, thru the
truly faithful and true believers and practitioners of good
courage, carries on. Though the spiritual path remains
narrow, and few be they that were willing to walk therein.

He said: “The gates of hell (DEATH, GRAVE) shall not


prevail against it,”, (Gospel Book of Matthew 16:18-19).
IT DID NOT. AND IS ALIVE TODAY!

THE WONDERFUL STORY MUST BE TOLD

THIS SACRED GOLDEN SCROLL SERIES IS THE


AMAZING, REALLY SPELLBINDING, TRULY
ENLIGHTENING STORY OF THE TRUE CHURCH OF THE
LIVING GOD, AND OF CHRIST.

THE STORY WAS NOT DONE IN A CORNER. AS A


MATTER OF FACT, ALL HISTORY IS WITNESS THAT THE
ONE WHO FOUNDED AND BUILT THE CHURCH OF
GOD OF THE NEW TESTAMENT WAS PUBLICLY
HOUNDED, FALSELY ACCUSED, OPENLY TORTURED,
MADE TO CARRY A WOODEN CROSS. AND FINALLY
HANGED, SHED HIS PRECIOUS LIFEBLOOD, AND DIED
IN THE SIGHT OF MEN AND WOMEN WITNESSES, ON
CALVARY, A HIGH PLACE OF ROCK IN JERUSALEM.

34
THE DETERMINED ADVERSARY OF GOD’S HEIRS OF
SALVATION, CALLED SATAN. THE INVISIBLE DEVIL,
AND HIS MALIGNANT, SIMILARLY INVISIBLE, DEMONS
AND WICKED SPIRITS,, HAVE CEASELESSLY TRIED TO
EXTINGUISH THE SPIRITUAL BODY OF THE LORD JESUS
CHRIST, AS HE HAS CAUSED HIS PHYSICAL BODY TO BE
MURDERED AND HANGED ON A TREE, A ROMAN
CROSS, ON CALVARY.

THE GOD OF HEAVEN NOW SPEAKS TO BRIGHTLY


SHINE, TO MOST POWERFULLY RADIATE THE
ILLUMINATING LIGHT OF THE TRUTH OF THE
CHURCH OF THE LIVING GOD, THE PILLAR AND
BULWARK OF THE TRUTH, TO ALL THE PEOPLES OF
THE EASTERN HEMISPHERE.

PROLOGUE

THE MYSTERY OF THE


CHURCH of the Living GOD

M ILLIONS, IN THEIR HUNDREDS


THOUSANDS, OF BELIEVERS HAVE COME TO ACCEPT
OF TEN

THAT THEY MUST JOIN A CHURCH.

There is fellowship there. Other fellow human beings are there. A


congregation of like-minded believers are there. There, friendships
are made. Families get together. Weddings celebrated. Fond
memories are remembered. Essentially, most everyone believes that
salvation is obtained or received thru the church.

IS THIS TRUE? THAT THEY MUST JOIN A CHURCH?

CAN YOU JOIN THE TRUE CHURCH OF GOD?

Today, there are hundreds of millions of human beings, two billion


plus, all told, who profess the Christian faith, and are called
Christians. Christianity, as a religion, is embraced by more than one
third of mankind, All these profess the Name of Jesus Christ.

37
All these claim to the worship of, and allegiance to, GOD.

And about two-thirds of the religious of mankind are connected


thru the bloodlines of the patriarch Abraham, father of many
nations, called the father of the faithful, (Epistle to the Romans
4:16-18).

THE BOOK IN TWO VOLUMES

This Sacred Golden Scroll Series XCI Is a big book of twenty four
truth-laden chapters. So it will come in two volumes.

There are two levels of the Church of the Living God:

1. The VISIBLE congregation, composed of mortals, born of


woman, flesh and blood. They bear the NAME OF THE FATHER:
GOD. SO Church of God. Christ asked His Father so, (Gospel
Book of John 17:11). Yet they are the churches of Christ, (First
Epistle to the Corinthians 11:16).

First Part, or Level 1 – The physical listed members who bear the
SIGN: SABBATH KEEPING, or they are called Sabbath
KEEPERS. And TEN COMMANDMENTS KEEPERS.
THAT IS THE LETTER OF THE LAW.

Second Part, or Level 2 – The Spirit of the Church of the Living


God, pillar and ground (bulwark) of the truth. They live in, by, and
with, the Spirit of the Law of Love, because they are baptized, laid-
hands on Spirit-begotten, converted, children of God, (Book of Acts
6:6; 8:17).

38
> They are meek. They are humble. They are peacemakers.

> Their very conduct reflects the Spirit of God in them.

> The fruit of the Spirit is manifested in their love, faith, hope,
gentleness and tenderness, in their peace and calm demeanor,
goodness, patience, and in their righteousness, humility and
meekness, temperance and moderation, in word, in thought, and in
deed, (Epistle to the Galatians 5:22-23) Not for their own glory. But
giving credit, tribute, and all for the glory, praise, and honor of God.
John 15:2; Eph. 5:9; Col. 3:12

> The essence. The substance, of the Church of God. The spirits
are subject to them, and their names are listed – written in heaven,
(Gospel Book of Luke 10:20), as they written in the Book of Life,
(Epistle to the Philippians 4:3).

> They are not self-righteous, neither vain, about their calling and
profession, but dwell among the earth’s inhabitants, their neighbors
and fellowmen, in true humility, in a spirit of harmony.

> They never give the impression that the rest of mankind is left
out, condemned to everlasting hell. Such an idea is absolutely
untrue. Most certainly ungodly. A deceiving lie by deceived persons,
unscrupulously passing out deceitful, diabolical, cruel lies and
doctrines of devils.

For God our Saviour wants all men to be saved and to come to the
knowledge of the truth, (First Epistle to Timothy 2:3-4). God wants
everyone everywhere to repent.

The truth is revealed in this Sacred Golden Scroll.


39
> They seek to
be of helpful service to them continually. They live in the
righteousness of God. They abide both by the visible, codified letter,
and in the spirit, of the Ten Commandments of God (LOVE),
(Books of Exodus 20:1-17; Deuteronomy 10:13; 10:4) which are
holy, just and good, (Epistle to the Romans 7:12). They are, indeed,
a peculiar people, in the true meaning of the word, as the Holy
Scriptures so defined, (Book of Deuteronomy 14:2; 26:18; First
Epistle Peter 2:9).

THIS DEFINES AND BARES THE IDENTITY, AND THE


MEANING, OF THE FELLOWSHIP OF THE MYSTERY,
(Epistle to the Ephesians 3:9).

40
Mystery of the LIVING GOD – Part 1

Chapter One

THE TRUTH ABOUT THE


CHURCH OF GOD

BEFORE YOU PROCEED:

Of utmost, even foremost, importance, you must understand the


real truth about the Church. In many ways, it is opposite to what
many believe what the Church is, and what it is all about.

BE FOREWARNED.

Yes, there is the Church that Jesus built.


And as Christ designed it to be, it is the Family of God on earth,
(Epistle to the Ephesians 3:13-14).

SO IT IS WRITTEN. THE CHURCH OF THE LIVING


GOD SO BELIEVE.

There are a number of many other things about the Church of God
that now you must understand.

> As it is called “ekklesia” in the original Greek, it means “called out


ones”.
41
> It is also called the Body of Christ, (Epistle to the Ephesians 1:22-
23), of which He is the Head. The Body has many members,
everyone members of one another, (Epistle to the Romans 12:5;
First Corinthians 12:14). ! Cor 12;12; Eph 4:16

SO IT IS WRITTEN. THE CHURCH OF GOD SO


BELIEVE.

> The Church has a name. It is called ‘CHURCH OF GOD”.


(Twelve scriptures of the New Testament Scriptures give the name:
Church of God). {WHAT’S IN A NAME?} In two places, it is
called the Churches of Christ, (Epistles to the Romans 16:16; First
to the Corinthians 11:15), because He built it. {see page ).

SO IT IS WRITTEN. THE CHURCH OF GOD SO


BELIEVE.

> The Church is described, metaphorically, as a woman. (Woman


in the wilderness to be kept safe from the great tribulation, (Book of
Revelation 12: 1-2, 5-6, 16-17).

SO IT IS WRITTEN. THE CHURCH OF GOD SO


BELIEVE.

> The Church is claimed and pronounced by the Lord Jesus Christ
as His Bride. To be kept pure. And spotless, prepared for her
Wedding with the Bridegroom, Jesus Christ, (Book of Revelation
21:2, 9).

SO IT IS WRITTEN. SO THE CHURCH OF GOD


BELIEVES.
42
> The Church is described as a spiritual organism. It is composed of
visible physical human members. They become the spiritual
congregation of the saints, spirit-begotten, children of God, and
led by the Spirit of God, hence, sons of God, recipient of the Spirit
of adoption, (Epistle to the Romans 8:14-15).

THEY WERE CARNAL AND SECULAR, BEFORE THEY


BECAME SPIRITUAL, AND SPIRIT-LED MEMBERS OF THE
BODY OF CHRIST, THEY WERE THE LIVING, WALKING
DEAD. NOTE: ALL OF IT IN THE PAST TENSE. THEY
WERE ALIENS IN THE COMMONWEALTH OF
ISRAEL.WITHOUT HOPE. WITHOUT GOD IN THE
WORLD. THEY WERE NOT PART OF THE COVENANTS
OF PROMISE. THEY WERE WILD GRAPES, SO SPEAK,
(Epistle to the Ephesians 2:1, 5, 11-14).

NOW, AS ADOPTED CHILDREN OF GOD, ALL SINS


FORGIVEN, THEY ARE MADE PURE. IN THE PRESENT
TENSE, CONTUOUSLY.
THERE IS NO MORE CONDEMNATION. BY CONTINUAL
REPENTANCE, THEY ARE EVER MADE CONTINUALLY
NEW. EVERGREEN, SO TO SPEAK, (Epistle to the Romans
8:1).

SO IT WRITTEN. THE CHURCH OF THE LIVING GOD


SO BELIEVES.

> The doctrines of GOD, and the Lord Jesus Christ are proclaimed
and practiced in, and by, the Church of God.

43
SO IT IS WRITTEN. THE CHURCH OF GOD SO
BELIEVE.

THE MASTERPLAN OF CREATION OF THE


IMMORTAL SONS OF GOD

> They carry the sign that they are GOD’s


people, and that GOD is their God, and that is the SEVENTH
DAY SABBATH, (Books of Exodus 31:13, 17; 20:8; Leviticus 19:3,
30; of the prophet Ezekiel 20:12, 20).

> And the Annual SABBATHS, The Feast Days of The LORD.
(Book of Leviticus 23:1-4). Which they faithfully observe and
joyfully keep, either as individually, or in joint fellowship of the
Church of the Living GOD. Week after week. Year after year. For
all their lives, as they draw breath.

THE SUBJECTS – ALL THE INHABITANTS OF THE


EARTH ARE JUST AS WEAK AND UNFULFILLED.
MADE TO PURSUE GOALS AND RUN AFTER EMPTY
DREAMS. ALL VANITY, AND RUNNING AFTER WIND.

So as they remember to observe and keep the Sabbaths, WEEKLY,


AND TRI-ANNUALLY, of God, these became emblazoned in the
believer and practitioner’s heart and mind, and whole being. A
fulfillment of God’s promise of a new covenant with the spiritual
commonwealth of spirit-begotten Israel (composed of both spirit-
begotten Jews and Gentiles) that He will write His Law of Love
written in their hearts in the end of days, (Book of the prophet
Jeremiah 31:33; Epistle to the Hebrews 8:10).

44
> THESE ANNUAL SABBATHS AND WEEKLY SABBATHS
ARE FEAST DAYS OF THE LORD ORDAINED FROM
CREATION WHEN THE ETERNAL GOD PLACED THE
SUN AND MOON IN THEIR FIXED ORBITS AS DIVINE
MARKERS OF TIME AND CYCLICAL SEASONS OF THE
DIVINE FESTIVALS OF THE LORD GOD FOR MANKIND,
(Book of Genesis 1:14).

14 “And God said, “Let there be lights in the firmament of the


heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for
signs, and for seasons*, and for days, and years.”

*seasons – Strong’s # 4150 Heb. >> mowadah >> an appointed


time, feast (appointed), (place of)) solemn assembly, festival,
congregation, meeting convened for a definite purpose.

The LORD God revealed to the people of Israel, whom He took out
of Egypt from their slavery for 450 years, thru His human
instrument Moses, what those FEAST DAYS OF GOD ARE in the
Book of Leviticus chapter 23.

The Lord Jesus Christ came from heaven and made manifest in to a
human being, flesh and blood, born of a woman, the virgin Mary.
He kept those Feast Days, together with his twelve disciples, whom
He later turned into his twelve apostles. He came to set the example
to them. To the end that His believers, followers and practitioners of
the Faith He once delivered to them, may FOLLOW IN HIS
STEPS, (Gospel Book of John 13:15; First Epistle of Peter 2:21).

Outwardly and inwardly, the SIGN BETWEEN GOD AND HIS


PEOPLE becomes permanently established, and ratified, so to
45
speak. IT SINKS INTO THE INNERMOST BEING.
INDELIBLE. ENGRAVED. It becomes part of their nature, not
second nature. Keeping and observing His perfect spiritual laws of
love and commandments which are holy and good becomes
automatic, and all done in perfect, joyful attitude, obedience, and
enthusiasm.

SO IT IS WRITTEN. THE CHURCH OF GOD SO


BELIEVE.

> This sign that they are God’s called out, and Christ’s chosen
people, is one of most solemn and sacred calling and responsibility.
It does not make of them spiritually high and mighty. Neither more
holy than their neighbor, or any one. Rather, they are sanctified.
Meaning >> set apart to fulfill God’s holy purpose for them. It does
confers upon them the responsibility to live exemplary lives as they
follow the example of the Lord Jesus Christ, and from that mirror,
they shine.

>.To become the light of the world. And be the salt of the earth.

> They are servants and spirit-begotten children of God, and


servants to mankind, for their fellowmen’s welfare and good being.
Not to get. Only in a spirit of giving.

> Thus, whenever they observe and keep the Holy Seventh-day
Sabbath, and the
Holy Annual Sabbaths, three times a year, they hold forth the
Divine Sign of their sanctification.

The rest of mankind may refuse to do so, and observe and keep their
own sabbaths, and their own feast days, apart from what the Holy
46
Scriptures reveal, (Book of the prophet Isaiah 1:13-`14). The world
calls them holidays, and festival, or feast, of this and that saint, or
saints.

> THESE WEEKLY AND ANNUAL SABBATHS REVEAL THE


FRAMEWORK OF GOD’S MASTERPLAN OF CREATION
OF THE IMMORTAL SONS OF GOD.

> THIS IS OUTLINED IN THE TWELVE PHASES OF THE


SPIRITUAL PROCESS OF SALVATION. (Refer to the Divine
Charter of Immortality).

> GOD HAS DESIGNED THESE TWELVE PHASES, WHICH


CULMINATES IN BEING BORN AGAIN, BORN OF THE
SPIRIT, INTO THE FAMILY, AND KINGDOM, OF GOD.

> THE FINAL POINT IS THE MOMENT OF SALVATION –


OF BEING TRANSFORMED FROM MORTAL TO
IMMORTAL SON, AND CHILD OF GOD. THAT IS THE
VERY ACTUAL MOMENT OF SALVATION, BORN OF
FAITH AND THE GRACE OF GOD >>>>o<<<< AND THE
RECEIVING OF THE GIFT OF EVERLASTING LIFE, (Epistle
to the Ephesians 2:8).

> THIS IS FOLLOWED BY THE RECEIVING OF THE


REWARD AND A CROWN OF LIFE BORNE OF ALL THE
GOOD WORKS AND DEEDS DONE IN THE SERVICE AND
LOVE OF GOD BY GOOD WORKS, (Epistle to the Ephesians
2:10).

47
> THE REST OF THE WORLD OF RELIGION, OR IN ALL
CHRISTIANITY OF TWO BILLION BELIEVERS DENY
THESE HOLY DAYS AND THE TRI-ANNUAL SABBATHS.

HENCE, SALVATION TO THEM IS GOING TO HEAVEN


BY THEIR “IMMORTAL” SOUL.

QUESTION NOT BEING ASKED:

IF THE SOUL IS IMMORTAL ALREADY, INSIDE OF THE


MAN OR WOMAN WHO DIED, WHAT IS THERE THE
NEED TO BE SAVED INTO IMMORTALITY IN HEAVEN?
QUITE IMPOSSIBLE TO EXPLAIN. IT IS THE PERFECT
CONTRADICTION THEY CALL A “MYSTERY”.

TO THE HIGHEST RELIGIOUS HIERARCHY, IF IT IS A


MYSTERY, IT CAN NOT BE EXPLAINED.. “IT MUST NOT
BE EXPLAINED. BECAUSE IT CAN NOT BE EXPLAINED.”
IS THE SIMPLISTIC ANSWER GIVEN TO THE SEEKERS OF
TRUE ANSWERS.

> They constitute the spiritual team of laborers in GOD’S


VINEYARD, of which the FATHER IS THE HUSBANDMAN
and CHRIST IS THE VINE, (Gospel Book of John 15:1). They
work for the same end-time reward, (Gospel Book of Matthew 20:1,
2, 8), when the Lord Jesus Christ returns and carries His reward
with Him, (Book of the prophet Isaiah 40:10-11; 62:11-12). THEY
ALSO ARE THE BRANCHES OF THE VERY VINE, JESUS
THE CHRIST OF GOD, (Gospel Book of John 15:1, 5).

SO IT IS WRITTEN. THE CHURCH OF GOD SO


BELIEVES.
48
> They KEEP THE COMMANDMENTS (The Ten
Commandments of God, {Books of Exodus 20:1-26;
Deuteronomy 4:13; 10:4}, AND BEAR THE TESTIMONY OF
JESUS CHRIST, (Book of Revelation 12:17>>>>Book of the
prophet Isaiah 8:16, 20). Gen 3:15; ch 11:7

{NOTE; MANKIND, FROM ADAM AND EVE, THE FIRST


CREATED HUMAN FAMILY, AND THEIR OFFSPRINGS
AND ALL THROUGHOUT THEIR GENERATIONS, TILL
TODAY, WERE IN REBELLION AGAINST THEIR ETERNAL
CREATOR GOD, AND HIS HOLY COMMANDMENTS.
REBELLION IS PRONOUNCED AS THE SIN OF
WITCHCRAFT, ALONG WITH THE INIQUITY OF
STUBBORNESS AND IDOLATRY, (First Book of the prophet
Samuel 15:23). Consequently, all have sinned, (Epistle to the
Romans 3:23; 5:12). The penalty of death hangs over every
unrepented sinner, (Romans 18:23).

GOD IS LOVE, (First Epistle of John 4:8, 16). THEREBY, THE


COMMANDMENTS OF GOD ARE THE TEN
COMMANDMENTS OF LOVE. THE COMMANDMENTS
ARE HOLY, JUST, AND GOOD, (Epistle to the Roams 7:12).

SO IT IS WRITTEN. THE CHIURCH OF GOD SO


BELIEVE.
BELIEVE.

> They manifest the FOREMOST IRREFUTABLE PROOF, THE


TOPMOST EVIDENCE, THE VERY FRUIT, that they are the
called-out, chosen, and elected disciples of the Lord Jesus Christ,
because they truly, and deeply, and sincerely, without dissimulation
and hypocrisy, LOVE ONE ANOTHER, and so manifesting, the
49
world of man shall, indeed, know, (Gospel Book of John 13:35).
THIS IS THE VERY ESSENCE OF THEIR RELIGION AND
LIVING FAITH.

THEREFORE ALL WHO SAY THAT THE LAW OF THE TEN


COMMANDMENTS IS LEGALISM, A BURDEN, A BALL OF
CHAIN, ARE LIARS. THE HOLY SCRIPTURES
PRONOUNCE: THE TRUTH IS NOT IN THEM, (Book of the
prophet Isaiah 8:16. 20).

SO IT IS WRITTEN. THE CHURCH OF THE LIVING


GOD SO BELIEVE.

> The Church has a specific purpose in being built by Jesus Christ.

What is it?

Is it a distinct spiritual purpose, using physical tools, in and by the


hands of flesh and blood mortals, born of women, as well as spiritual
tools, to proceed to do, perform, and complete the job, to ultimately
accomplish the spiritual purpose?

THE SPIRITUAL PERFECTION OF MAN

The total completion and spiritual perfection of man, to the


measure of the fullness of Christ, is made possible ONLY in the
Church of the Living God, for it is the PILLAR of the ONLY
TRUTH, (Epistle to the Ephesians 4:13). IN ANY OTHER
PLACE, IT IS THE MIXTURE OF TRUTH AND ERROR, OF
THE BLENDING OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOOD AND
EVIL THAT WAS RECEIVED AND INGESTED IN THE

50
REBELLION OF ADAM AND EVE IN THE GARDEN OF
EDEN. THIS, THEY PASSED ON TO THE HUMAN RACE,
TILL TODAY.

THE HUMAN FAMILY THROUGHOUT THE AGES OF


MAN’S GENERATIONS WERE INCUBATED, AS IT WERE,
IN THE WOMB OF DUAL VALUES: KNOWLEDGE OF
GOOD AND EVIL. TRUTH AND ERROR. GOODNESS AND
WICKEDNESS. TRUTH AND LIE. LIGHT AND DARKNESS.
THEY WERE, AS IT WERE, HATCHED AND CAME OUT
INTO THE WORLD OF THE LIVING WITH THIS BUILT-
IN IN THEIR PSYCHE.

THE HUMAN DILEMMA

CHRIST’S APOSTLE TO THE GENTILES, PAUL, SPOKE OF


IT WITH GRAVE ANGST, AND A SENSE OF
HELPLESSNESS:
“O wretched man that I am. Who will deliver me from the body of
this death?”, (read all of >>>> Epistle to the Romans 47:14-24).

SO IT IS WRITTEN. SO THE CHURCH OF GOD SO


BELIEVE.

> It is the ONLY FOUNTAIN OF PERFECT KNOWLEDGE,


UNDERSTANDING, and WISDOM that is not stained, neither
defiled, nor polluted by the knowledge and practice of both good,
and evil. THIS IS THE ONLY ISSUE THAT REALLY
MATTERS.

SO IT IS WRITTEN, THE CHURCH OF GOD SO


BELIEVE.
BELIEVE.
51
> The perfect parallel of the Body called the Church of God is the
human body. Of the body, the Psalmist David exclaimed: “FOR I
AM FEARFULLY AND WONDERFULLY MADE!”

The human body is alive and animated. So is the Church. BOTH


PERFECTLY AND WONDERFULLY MADE BY THE SAME
CREATOR AND BUILDER, (Book of Psalms 100:3; 139:14;
Gospel Book of Matthew 16:18).

> The members thereof were pre-destinated to be called. So were


the members of the human body foreordained to be so, before they
were ever made, and came to be, (Book of Psalms 139:16-17; Epistle
to the Ephesians 1:4).

SO IT IS WRITTEN. THE CHURCH OF GOD SO


BELIEVE.
BELI EVE.

> The members of the Family of God on earth, the household of


God, must dwell together in harmony, and unity, (Book of Psalms
133:1; Epistle to the Ephesiansn4:3, 13). If they must walk together,
they must have mutual agreement, (Book of the prophet Amos 3:3).

> The Church of God is ONE BODY with many members, (First
Epistle to the Corinthians 12:13).

> The Church of God, of Christ, has ONE God, and FATHER of
all, (Epistle to the Ephesians 4:4. 5, 6).

> One Faith. One Hope. One Baptism, (Eph 4:5).

52
> One Lord and Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ (First Epistle to the
Corinthians 8:6).

> One Spirit, the Holy Spirit of Power, (Epistles to the Ephesians
2:18; to the Philippians 1:7).

> ONE BODY OF BELIEFS AND DOCTRINES. Speaking one


word, THE WORD OF GOD.

> ONE CHURCH NAME:: CHURCH OF GOD, OF CHRIST.

> ONE COMMISSION: TO PROCLAIM >>>> TO PREACH


BY THE SPOKEN WORD, AND TO PUBLISH, BY THE
PRINTED WORD, THE GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM OF
GOD.

> ONE GOVERNMENT OF GOD

The governments of men govern as overlords over the citizens. The


system is a hierarchy of ranks. A pyramid. From the top >>>> down.
Both in their armies. Of unbending, stern authority, strict discipline,
and strong command. Of harsh punishment. In their business
organizations. And in their churches. IT IS ALL ABOUT POWER.
To control others. And the power to control, and allocate and
disburse the financial resources, or money, and assets, of the
organization. Whether it be of civil government, or business, or
religious.

In the Church of God, the greatest among them is the servant of all,

53
25 “But Jesus called them unto him, and said, ‘Ye know that the
princes of the Gentiles exercise dominion over them, and they that
are great exercise authority over them.
26 But it shall not be so among you but whosoever will be great
among you, let him be your minister; 1 Pet. 5:3
27 And whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant,
(Gospel Books of Matthew 20:25-27; 23:11; Mark 10:43-44 ).

It is a government of caring and giving for the welfare of the


members of the household of God. The ultimate standard and the
bar is SPIRITUAL LOVE. Love one to another. Members to one
another.

Of loving-kindness. Humility, Of forgiving one another,


symbolically “seventy times seven.”

AUTHORITY FROM CHRIST GIVEN FOR


LEADERS SHIP AND ADMINISTRATION OF THE
CHURCH OF GOD TO FEED THE FLOCK AND
PROCLAMATION OF ITS SOLE MISSION

“And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and
whatever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and
whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven,”
(Gospel Book of Matthew 16:18).

> ONE GOSPEL >>>> THE GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM


OF GOD, Gospel means
‘good news,” (Gospel Books of Matthew 24:14; Mark 13:10).

54
> ONE SALVATION, THAT COMES BY BEING BORN
AGAIN INTO THE FAMILY, AND KINGDOM, OF GOD,
(Gospel Book of John chapter 3, by being born again into the
Family, and Kingdom, of God, an immortal, spirit-born child of
God).

> THE NEW TESTAMENT CHURCH OF GOD IS THE


SPIRITUAL MIRROR OF THE “CHURCH OF GOD IN THE
WILDERNESS”, (Book of Acts 7:37, 38). The Old Testament
“ekklesia” consisting of the people and nation of Israel, was called
out of, and from, Egypt, where they were slaves for more than four
hundred eighty years. (Book of First Kings 16:1), “Egypt” is the
symbol of the prison house of sin, or sin itself. The New Testament
Church of God are called out of the bondage to sin, their spiritual
“Egypt”.

> IT IS THE CHURCH OF THE FIRST BORN.


(Epistle to the Hebrews 12:23).

> Together with the Name, CHURCH OF GOD, OF CHRIST,


the Church of God live a WAY OF LIFE. In the very early days,
they are known as the followers of the Crucified and Resurrected
Christ who lived, and walked with God, in THE WAY, (Book of
Acts 19:9, 23).

SO IT IS WRITTEN. THE CHURCH OF THE LIVING


GOD SO BELIEVE.

> THEY WERE CALLED CHRISTIANS…


26 “And when he had found him, he brought him unto Antioch.
And it came to pass, that a whole year they assembled themselves

55
with the church, and taught much people. And the disciples were
called Christians first in Antioch,” (Book of Acts 11:26).

THE FIRST CENTURY DISCIPLES WERE KNOWN AS


CHRISTIANS, EVEN BY KINGS
27 “King Agrippa, believes thou the prophets? I know that thou
believest.
28 Then Agrippa said unto Paul, ‘Almost thou persuadest me to be a
Christian,” (Book of Acts 26:27-28).

THE APOSTLE PETER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT NAME


FOR THE TRUE DISCIPLES OF CHRIST
16 “Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; let
him glorify God on his behalf,” (First Epistle of Peter 4:16).

> LIVING FAITH AND SPIRIT-LED GOOD WORKS become


the twin enabling spiritual power with, and by, which the steadfast
believer and active doer may attain and receive the spiritual power to
grow, comprehend, and to come to attain to the spiritual
dimensions of length, of depth, of height, and of width, (ref. ch.
1:18), together with the saints; and finally, to know and experience
the love of Christ, which passes knowledge, that you, the believer
and practitioner, may be filled with all the fullness of God, (Epistle
to the Ephesians 3:18-19), unto a perfect man, to attain to the
measure of the stature, of the fullness of Christ, (Eph. 4:13).

SO IT IS WRITTEN. THE CHURCH OF THE LIVING


GOD SO BELIEVE.

MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT THE CHURCH

56
You hear believers say: “They go to church.” Or, “They went to
church”.

And so it is generally, and traditionally, believed that they enter


their building of worship as the church. As proclaimed on the
outside of the building, the name of their church is drawn, either
with sculpted letters in metal, bronze or wood, or etched, engraved,
or painted. Hence, their place of worship is taken for granted as “the
church.”

The right and correct way is to say: “They went to worship services.”
(Of the Church).

It really matters to be right about this issue.

When did those errant practices and traditions begin? It is quite


foggy when men try to look back to find out thru the dim mists of
yore and ancient time. What is practiced today are modern
innovations and added accepted ways that seemed pleasant, in the
process of time.

To many others, over time, their particular church became as to an


exclusive club. An exclusive social gathering. And so, it came to be.
And in these practices, they became smug. And slowly adopted
worldly practices.

A religious leader in the large bloc of protestant believers observed


sadly: “WE HAVE NOT OVERCOME THE WORLD. WE
WERE OVERCOME BY THE WORLD.”

THE WAY TO WORSHIP ACCEPTABLE TO GOD

57
The New Testament Church of God worshipped in the FORMAT
of Fellowship and Worship Services in the Congregation attended
by:

> Saluting, or greeting, one another with a holy kiss, (Epistles to the
Romans 16:16; First Corinthians 16:20; Second Corinthians 13:12;
First Thessalonians 5:26; Kiss of charity: First Peter 5:14).
> Fervent Prayers. with all supplications, (First Epistle to Timothy
2:1; 5:5; Epistle to the Hebrews 5:7). They PRAY, AND LIFT UP
THEIR HOLY HANDS WITHOUT DOUBTING, (First Epistle
to Timothy 2:8). Luke 23:34; Ps 134:2

> Singing of soulful Psalms, vibrant Spiritual Songs of Praise, and


stirring, uplifting, ennobling Hymns, (Epistles to the Ephesians
5:19; Colossians 3:16).

> With the skillful Playing and Use of Musical Instruments, (see
their names: Book of Psalms 149:3; 150:3, 4, 5).

> Interactive Communications of revelations, in an orderly and


decent manner, (First Epistle to the Corinthians 14:26).

> Consistent, continual PRAYERFUL Reading, and diligent Spirit-


guided Study, of the Holy Scriptures. Like the Bereans did, who
studied, and searched the Scriptures daily, if these things were so,
(Book of Acts 17:11).

> And sincere Preaching by serving trained teachers (not novices,


neither neophytes), and service-oriented, able ministers who are
grounded in the Faith and in the Holy Scriptures. They who labor
in deep love for the everlasting Gospel, and the holy brethren.

58
ALL THESE are conducted for the edification of the Body, the
Church of God, (First Epistle to the Corinthians 14:40).

(Note: Clap your hands, Shout unto God with the voice of triumph,
(Book of Psalms 47:1); Dance is mentioned in the Book of Psalms
149:3).
THE CONGREGATION OF THE CHURCH, OR
CHURCHES, OF GOD ARE ENJOINED TO ASSEMBLE IN
WORSHIP SERVICES AND FELLOWSHIP.

23 “Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering;


(for he is faithful that promised;) ch. 4:14; 1 Cor 1:9
24 And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and good
works;
25 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the
manner of some is, but exhorting one another: and so much the
more, as ye see the day approaching,” (Epistle to the Hebrews
10:23-25).

IT STARTED FROM THE EARLIEST DAYS IMMEDIATELY


AFTER THE RESURRECTION OF THE LORD JESUS
CHRIST:

50 And he led them out as far as to Bethany, and he lifted up his


hands, and blessed them. Acts 1:12
51 And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he was parted from
them, and carried up into heaven. Mark 16:19
52 And they worshipped him, and returned to Jerusalem with great
joy. Mat 28:9
53 And were continually in the temple, praising and blessing God.
Amen.,” (Gospel Book of Luke 24:50-53) Acts 2:48

59
THERE IS NEVER ANY VESTIGE OF FAMILIARITY.
ALWAYS OBERVED WITH JOY AND FERVENT ZEAL.

SO IT IS WRITTEN. THE CHURCH OF THE LIVING


GOD, THE CHURCHES OF CHRIST, SO BELIEVE.

WARNING AND REMINDER:

If NOT faithfully practiced and carefully observed as revealed in the


Holy Scriptures, the Head of the Church declares:

‘IN VAIN THEY WORSHIP ME, TEACHING FOR


DOCTRINES THE COMMANDMENTS OF MEN,” Thus, says
the Lord Jesus Christ, (Gospel Books of Matthew 15:7-9; Mark 7:7-
9). For this forthright declaration and pronouncements by the
Master Builder of the Church of God, of Christ, He was hated and
vilified by the religious leaders in His days in the flesh among men
He created, (Gospel Book of John 1:1).

WITH THE HOLY SCRIPTURES AS THE SOLE AND ONLY


GUIDE that we may truly know the real truth, this Sacred Golden
Scroll Series draws the whole, unvarnished, Truth from the Holy
Scriptures, both the Old, and New, Testament. This is in full
reverent obedience, and honor, to GOD.

If ye have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which is given to you
ward: 3 How that by revelation He made known unto me the mystery;…4
Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of
Christ. 5 Which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men, as it is
now revealed unto His holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit; 6 That the
Gentiles should be fellow heirs, and of the same body, and partakers of the
61
promise in Christ by the gospel. 9 And to make known what is the
FELLOWSHIP OF THE MYSTERY, which is from the beginning of the world
hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ: 10 To the intent
that now unto the principalities, and powers in heavenly places might be known
by the church the manifold wisdom of God,” (Epistle to the Ephesians 3:3-10).

WHY ARE THERE MANY DIFFERENT CHURCHES


ON EARTH TODAY?

As many as the churches are, so is the story why and how they
started, many, and long.

It is in the nature of things that human beings are divided into types
and kinds.

 The following kind. THE FOLLOWER. THE


FOLLOWERS.

 And the leading kind. THE LEADER, “THE ONE”, as he


is often tagged in media and religious literature.

So long as there are followers who would rather follow someone, just
to sit back, and relax, there will always be a leader, or leaders.
Leaders who are supposed to lead by work, and example. Not merely
to have and to use the power of authority and command. And end
up using selected scriptures to collect money from the followers and
supporters.

The principle is true in the story of the Church. And over time in
the churches.

62
IT HAS COME DOWN TO THESE

The words and texts of the Holy Scriptures, or the Holy Bible, are
claimed to be the unexpurgated source of the articles of faith and
practice of their particular church.

A catch phrase here. A compound of words there. A single word in


that. Then a church is born. Just like that! It becomes silly, indeed.
For from then on, these latch on to their particular word phrase as
their banner slogan. IT IS MAKING THE HOLY CHURCH OF
THE LIVING GOD CHEAP, AND DRAGGED DOWN TO
INSIGNIFICANT, COLLOQUIAL LEVELS. EVEN
IRRELEVANT.

DO NOT BE DECEIVED BY ANY OF THESE. THESE


NEVER-DO-WELLS BLASPHEME GOD’S VERY NAME AND
DIVINE MAJESTY. HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THESE.

63
Mystery of the LIVING GOD – Part 1

Chapter Two

NEVER AN IDLE WORD


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.” (Gospel Book of Matthew 12:36-37).

“Sanctify them thru thy truth: thy word is truth,” (Gospel Book of
John 17:17).

> It is important now to realize that all religious doctrinal


falsehoods, masquerading as Truth, but are lies, are idle words.
Every religious leader who proclaims false gospels, which are idle
words, will be held accountable before God in the Day of Judgment.
They are indicted by these very declaration of the Creator of the
human race, The Captain of salvation, the Author and Finisher of
the Faith, (Epistle to the Hebrews 2:10; 12:2; Gospel Book of John
1:1-2).

> “Whatever is not of faith is sin,” (Epistle to the Romans 14:23).


Whatever it is that is not according to the Faith once delivered to
the saints, are practices of sin! This condemns false religious faiths
and man-invented lawless and faithless religious practices and
traditions.

64
THEY DID NOT KNOW WHAT
THEY WERE DOING

Then said Jesus, “Father forgive them, for they know not what
they do,” (Gospel Book of Luke 23:34).

He came to die for the redemption of mankind. To heal the human


race. Afflicted by all manner of physical diseases and its
complications, and every type and kind of psycho-somatic disorders.
In their inner man, in
their mind, heart, and spirits: Every, and all, manner, of spiritual
afflictions. including demon possessions, and serious demon
influences. The latter not being recognized by human physicians and
learned doctors.

> Why did mankind need to be redeemed?

The answer lies before that time of the need for humanity to be
redeemed.

> When GOD created the perfect and beautiful earth, it was not
meant to be ruined. It was created to be inhabited. That original
Earth was to be the dwelling place of mortal inhabitants who will
live, and later die, and later live by a resurrection from the grave, to
live forever in immortality.

1 “IN THE BEGINNING, GOD CREATED THE HEAVEN


AND THE EARTH, (Book of Genesis 1:1).

65
Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth?...
Ps 104:5; Prov 8:29
5 Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? Or who
hath stretched the line upon it?
6 Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? Or who laid
the corner stone thereof?
7 When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God
shouted for joy,” (Book of Job 38:4-7).

BEAUTIFUL PERFECT EARTH MADE TO BE


INHABITED

18 “For thus saith the LORD God that created the heavens:
God himself
himself that formed the earth and made it: he hath
established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be
inhabited: I am the LORD, and there is none else,” (Book of
the prophet Isaiah 45:18). verse 5
5 “Thus saith God the LORD, he that created the heavens
he avens and
stretched them out: he that spread forth the earth, and that
which cometh out of it; he that giveth breath unto the people
upon it, and spirit to them that walk therein,” (ch. 42:5).

CONSEQUENCES OF SIN, BORNE OF IDLE


WORDS, IN THE HERE AND NOW

All of the family of man burdened by the duality of their nature,


passed on to them from their first progenitor: the knowledge of
good and evil. Truth and error. Every time evil prevails in their
actions, they sin.

66
Every time their thoughts in error cause them to commit deeds
of disobedience, they sin. Every time they sin, death comes
hanging heavier over them.
“Thy first father hath sinned, and thy teachers hath transgressed
against me,” (Book of the prophet Isaiah 43:27).

ADAM, THE FIRST CREATED MORTAL, FLESH AND


BLOOD, AND PHYSICAL FATHER AND PROGENITOR,
OF ALL LIVING, SINNED AGAINST THE ETERNAL
CREATOR GOD. IN THE BEGINNING, IN ONE
MOMENT IN TIME AFTER HE WAS CREATED.

THE HOLY SCRIPTURES REMAIN SILENT AS TO


WHETHER HE REPENTED, OR NOT.

ALL THE TEACHERS OF MEN THAT AROSE


THROUGHOUT ALL THE GENERATIONS OF
MANKIND TILL TODAY HAVE TRANSGRESSED
AGAINST GOD. WITHOUT EXCEPTION. THEY HAVE
ALL TAUGHT BOTH IDLE WORDS OF ERROR,
UNWITTINGLY, OR WITTINGLY, MIXED WITH
FACTS AND TRUTH, TO THEIR EAGER STUDENTS,
(Epistle to the Romans 5:14).

WERE THEY SINCERE?

YES, BUT SINCERELY DECEIVED.

YET, IN THE LAW IT IS WRITTEN, “IGNORANCE OF


THE LAW EXEMPTS NO ONE FROM COMPLIANCE
THEREWITH.” AND THIS TRUE.

67
(Books of Leviticus 4;2; 5:15; 4:13; Book of Acts 3:17, 19;
17:30).

He came to redeem the created mortals, born of women, flesh and


blood from that condemnation. Every one of them condemned
under the penalty of death, (Epistle to the Galatians 3:22).

> ONLY THE ACCEPTABLE REDEEMER AND HIS


PRECIOUS BLOOD SACRIFICE CAN DO THAT FOR ALL
OF THEM THAT WERE EVER BORN, AND ALL THAT
EVER DIED, ON THE FACE OF THE EARTH. IT IS THE
ONLY ONE TIME SACRIFICE ACCEPTABLE TO GOD,
(Epistle to the Hebrews 10:12, 14; 11:4).

ONLY THE PRECIOUS BLOOD OF THE LAMB, WHO WAS


GOD, AND BECAME A MAN, CAN BE ACCEPTABLE TO
GOD, (Gospel Book of John 1:1). “And without controversy great
is the mystery of Godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified
in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on
in the world, received up into glory,” (First Epistle to Timothy
3:16).

THE PRECIOUS BLOOD OF THE PASSOVER LAMB IS


SACRIFICED FOR THE DISCIPLES OF CHRIST, (First Epistle
to the Corinthians 5:7).

“All have sinned, and come short of the glory of God, (Epistle to
the Romans 3:23; 5:12).
The wages of sin is death,” (Epistle to the Romans 6:23).

THE ROOT OF SIN


68
WHAT IS THE ROOT OF SIN?

HOW DID IT ALL BEGIN?

WHEN THE FIRST COUPLE PARTOOK OF THE TREE


OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOOD AND EVIL.

THEN THE KNOWLEDGE OF EVIL TOOK ON A


HEAVIER WEIGHT IN THE PROCESS OF TIME.

KNOWLEDGE OF EVIL MADE AND INDUCED MEN


TO COMMIT SIN.

SIN UPON LAYER AND LAYERS OF SIN WAS THE NET


RESULT.

“SIN IS THE TRANSGRESSION OF THE LAW,”(First


Epistle John 3:4).

SIN IS THE BREAKING OF THE TEN


COMMANDMENTS OF GOD, THE CODIFIED
ARTICLES OF THE LAW. THE LAW OF LOVE.

GOD IS LOVE.

THE TEN COMMANDMENTS ARE THE TEN


COMMANDMENT OF LOVE.

WHEN EVER ANY MAN OR WOMAN BREAKS THAT


COMMANDMENT OF LOVE, THE RESULT IS SIN.

69
SIN IS DESERVING OF THE PENALTY OF DEATH.

DEATH IN THIS PHYSICAL LIFE IS EITHER DIRECT


DEATH THAT COMES UPON THE SINNER, BY HIS
BREAKING THE LAW OF LOVE. THE TEN
COMMANDMENTS OF GOD. THE AUTOMATIC
PENALTIES FOR TRANSGRESSIONS OF THE LAW OF
LOVE BRING PHYSICAL DEATH. LIFE BECOMES
SHORTER. STRESSES AND PSYCHOSOMATIC
PROBLEMS THAT ACCRUE BRINGS ILL HEALTH. THE
PERSON DIES, NOT IN PEACE, BUT UNDER DURESS,
ANGST, PAIN, DISTRESS. DISEASES COME OUT TO
AFFLICT THE BODY. DEATH FOLLOWS.
UNREPENTED SIN ULTIMATELY BRINGS SPIRITUAL
DEATH.

WHEN REPENTED OF, SINCERELY, WITH SINCERE


GRIEF, GOD FORGIVES. FORGIVENESS OF SIN HEALS
THE BODY, AS WELL.

Mystery of the LIVING GOD – Part 1

Chapter Three

THE MYSTERY OF THE


CHURCH BUILT UPON
THE ROCK
In the fifth chapter of the Gospel Book of Mathew, the Lord
Jesus Christ went up into a mountain, whereon His disciples
came unto Him. There He taught them, and opened the
profoundest truth of the Christian calling for their deep
understanding:

“Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine,


and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man,
which built his house upon a rock:
25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and
the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell
not: for it was founded upon a rock.” (Gospel Books of
Matthew 7:24-
7:24-25; Luke 6:47-
6:47-48).

THE FOUNDATION OF THE CHURCH OF


GOD

71
JESUS, THE CHRIST OF GOD, BUILT THE CHURCH
OF GOD UPON HIMSELF, THE ROCK.

In His prayer to God His Father, before His moment of


supreme sacrifice and death, in the hands of men He created, by
Roman crucifixion, He enjoined the Father to KEEP IN
GOD’S NAME those the Father has given to Him. Hence, the
Churches of Christ are kept in the Name of God: CHURCH
OF GOD, (Gospel Book of John 17:11; Epistle to the
Ephesians 3:15). The Church of God is the Household and
Family of God on earth, (Epistle to the Ephesians 2:19; 3:15).
Gal 6:10

In twelve places in the Holy Scriptures, (ten in God’s, and two


in Christ’s), the Name is revealed:

> “Feed the church of God, (Book of Acts 20:28).

> “To the church of God which is at Corinth, (First Epistle to the
Corinthians 1:2).

> “Give none offence,,,, to the church of God,” (ch 10:32).

> “Or despise ye the church of God,” (ch 11:22)

> “I persecuted the church of God,” (ch 15:9).

> “We have no custom, neither the churches of God,” (ch 11:16).

>“Care of the church of God,” (First Epistle to Timothy 3:5;

> “church of the living God,” (Ch. 3:15).


72
> “Called churches of Christ, “ (Epistle to the Romans 16:16).

> “I persecuted the church of God; (Epistle to the Galatians 1:13).

>“As I ordain in all churches of Christ,” (First Epistle to the


Corinthians 11:16).

> “Followers of the churches of God,” (First Epistle to the


Thessalonians 2:14).

He is THE SPIRITUAL ROCK upon which His Church was


founded, (First Epistle to the Corinthians 10:4). Ex
17:6, Num 20:11, Ps 78:15
SO IT IS WRITTEN. THE CHURCH OF THE LIVING
GOD, THE CHURCHES OF CHRIST, SO BELIEVE.

A FUNDAMENTAL BUILDING PRINCIPLE TO


FOLLOW

MOREOVER, CHRIST DISCLOSED THE KEY


PRINCIPLE THAT EVERY BELIEVER AND
PRACTITIONER MUST FOLLOW IN BUILDING: IN
ESTABLISHING HIS OWN BLUEPRINT FOR HIS
PERSONAL LIFE-BUILDING.
THE OTHER IN BUILDING HIS OWN HOUSE.

IF HE BE A SERVING SERVANT OF CHRIST IN A


CHURCH, HOW TO BUILD THAT BRANCH OF THE
SPIRITUAL BODY UNDER HIS CARE..

73
IF THE BUILDER DOES, ALL ELSE WILL FOLLOW IN
SMOOTH FLOW. LIKE CLOCKWORK REGULARITY.

GOD AND THE LORD JESUS CHRIST, THRU THE


POWER AND GUIDANCE BY THE HOLY SPIRIT, WILL
SEE TO THAT.

CHAOS AND FAILURE FOLLOWS DEVIATION


AND DISOBEDIENCE

It is really quite simple.

The law of cause and effect in operation in the created universe, and
reduced from the biggest, largest size, thru, and to, descent to the
lowest quantity. Even to the multi-cellular, sub-atomic level. And
from the utmost volume and mass to the smallest equation. The
Law of Cause and Effect follows, and is applicable, in all these.

Primary example: Gravity pulls all men down, so men are all
earthbound, Gravity is the cause. The going down is the effect. It is
inevitable. Inviolate. A fixed principle in the created universe. Set in
motion by the Eternal Creator GOD. We see this on terra firma, the
earth that all men, born of women, flesh and blood mortals, dwell
in.

It is quite important to understand.

THE HIGHEST VALUE TO REACH AFTER

Life is not all technical equations, numbers. And now, in the 21st
century, digits. Not in-depth analysis. Uninvolved evaluation and

74
factual research with charts and figures galore. Not endless
information gathering and ultimately, information overload!

Modern 21st century man has fallen into the trap. Competition.
Survival. “Must win at all costs” motto and mantra. The rat race.
Stress. Anxiety. Withdrawal into self-protection, and loss of trust of
others is the result. Crafting of firewalls from intrusion in to his
private world and personal universe, his well-guarded space.
VERBOTEN TO OTHERS. Forbidden. Intrude NOT. Such
tragedy. The SYSTEM has done in the human person, flesh and
blood, born of woman.

Coldness. Hardness. ‘Who cares?’ Unfeeling. Dispassionate.


Uninvolvement. Men turned to all these to mask himself. For self-
protection. Self-preservation in an evil and cruel, merciless
environment: the world, as it has now become.

THIS IS IN THE EXTREME.

IT IS GOING TO GET WORSE AND WORST IN THE END


OF DAYS.

ALL THESE >>> MEN OUGHT TO BE

Feeling and emotions attend the entire range of the business, and
conduct, or vice-versa, of life.

Passion and intensity must attend activities that men do. Capacity to
care. Willingness to show and share affection. Compassion is
primary in communion with suffering mankind. With one’s
neighbor. Willingness to reach out and touch the lives of others, and

75
to be mutually touched, as well. It is never really a one way street,
but two, and mutual. And so it never dries and never dies.

LOVE, above all. In the Greek, not just Eros, Neither philia.
The former and the latter, both being physical and material, will
pass away into the night, so to speak. As the saying goes, fade
into the sunset, And perish from the thoughts and memory of
men. The fire and the passion will die down. Much, ought and
must be, in overflowing agape, spiritual love, which never dies.
It is everlasting, above all else.

Agape that will endure for all eternity.

Love that is shared and given. The more you give it away, the
more you have it. Such a beautiful paradox. Meant to be known.
Meant to be experienced by every one.

Erstwhile they are insensate. Devoid of true feeling. Bereft of


true humanity. Robbed off of mercy, kindness, goodness,
beauty, and truth.

All facts and knowledge, particularly head knowledge, are


granted to be true. Yet IF devoid of the beating, stirring,
pulsating heart, No passion and feeling, Turned inert. It is “not
a life worth living,” to paraphrase an ancient philosopher.

Robots, albeit functioning machines, equipped with mechanical


memory, software and electronics, and can move as if it were
human, emit computerized sounds and light, are nothing but
inorganic, metallic, feelingless fabrications. Yet made with accurate
dimensions and proportions, and high-sensitivity sensors, are just
that: robots. They are man-made machines.
76
Man must never turn to be like his fabricated robots. That would be
an awful tragedy. The ultimate tragedy, in fact.
“HOW BEAUTIFUL ARE THE FEET OF THEM…”

Members of the Church of God, the spiritual Body of Jesus Christ


ought to live by THE REDEEMING WONDERFUL POWER
OF LOVE, quickened by the Holy Spirit, the power of the Highest.
This is totally warm and spontaneous. Given, shown, and shared
with utmost, profound feeling and complete sincerity with one’s
fellowman. THEY BECOME THE FOREMOST EXAMPLE OF
SPIRITUAL HUMANITY. Warm. Compassionate. Courageous.
Bold. Kind. Gentle. Tender. Generous. THAT IS THE TRUE
SPIRITUAL BEAUTY, TO THE ATTAINMENT OF WHICH,
AND TO WHICH, A TRUE BELIEVER AND PRACTITIONER
OF THE FAITH ONCE DELIVERED, MAY ASPIRE.

TO THE CHAPTER OF LOVE

THE FIRST EPISTLE TO THE CORINTHIANS, ALL OF


CHAPTER THIRTEEN SAYS IT PEREFECTLY WELL: READ
IT. AND TAKE IT TO HEART WITH MUCH PRAYER AND
SUPPLICATIONS. FOR DEEP UNDERSTANDING. AND
ULTIMATELY, ZEALOUS APPLICATION.

First Corinthians 13

Chapter of Charity (LOVE)


1
Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have
not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
77
2
And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all
mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I
could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.

3
And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I
give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me
nothing.

4
Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity
vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,

5
Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily
provoked, thinketh no evil;
6
Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;
7
Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth
all things.
8
Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall
fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be
knowledge, it shall vanish away.
9
For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.

10
But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part
shall be done away.

11
When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I
thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish
things.

78
12
For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now
I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.

13
And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest
of these is charity.

COMPASSION WITH, AND IN, HEALING WAS


THEHALLMARK OF CHRIST’S MINISTRY

The Eternal Creator GOD dealt with His created mortals with
loving kindness:
35 “And they remembered that God was their rock, and the
high God their redeemer.
36 Nevertheless they did flatter him with their mouth, and they
lied unto him with their tongues.
37 For their heart was not right with him, neither were they
steadfast in his covenant.
38 But he being full of compassion, forgave their iniquity, and
destroyed them not: yea, many a time turned he his anger away,
and did not stir up all his wrath.
Num 14:18, 20
39 For he remembered they are but flesh, a wind that passeth
away, and cometh not again,” (Book of Psalms 78:36-39).

15 But thou, O LORD, art a God full of compassion, and


gracious, longsuffering, and plenteous in mercy and truth,”
(Book of Psalms 86:15).

4 “He hath made his wonderful works to be remembered; and


the LORD is gracious and full of compassion,” (Book of Psalms
111:4; 112:4; 145:8).

79
The Lord Jesus Christ showed the way in his recorded dealings
with mankind.

36 “But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with


compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered
abroad, as sheep having no shepherd,” (Gospel Book of
Matthew 9:36).

34 “So Jesus had compassion on them, and touched their eyes,


and immediately their eyes received sight, and they followed
him,” (Gospel Book of Matthew 20:34).

39 And he preached in their synagogues throughout all Galilee,


and cast out devils.
40 And there came out a leper to him, beseeching him, and
kneeling down to him, And saying unto him, ‘If thou wilt, thou
canst make me clean.’ 41 And Jesus, moved with
compassion, put forth his hand, and touched him, and saith
unto him. ‘I will; be thou clean.’
42 And soon as he had spoken, immediately the leprosy
departed from him, and he was cleansed. (Gospel Book of Mark
1:39-41).

12 Now when he came nigh to the gate of the city, behold there
was a dead man carried out, the only son of his mother, and she
was a widow: and much people of the city was with her.
13 And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and
said unto her, ‘Weep not’.
14 And when he came and touched the bier: and they that bare
him stood still. And he said, ‘Young man, I say unto thee, Arise.’
ch 8:54; John 11:43
80
15 And he that was dead sat up, and began to speak. And he
delivered him to his mother.
16 And there rose a fear on all: and they glorified God, saying, ‘That
a great prophet is risen up among us; and that God hath visited his
people,’ (Gospel Book of Luke 7:12-15).

THE DISCIPLES OF CHRIST ARE


COMMISSIONED TO PROCLAIM THE GOSPEL
OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD, AND HEAL THE
SICK

1 ‘THEN HE called his twelve disciples together, and gave them


power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases.
Mat 10:1; Mark 3:13; 6:7
2 And he sent them to proclaim the kingdom of God, and to heal
the sick, (Gospel Book of Luke 9:1-2). Mat 10:7, 8

5 These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them saying, ‘Go
not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans
enter ye not.
ch 4:1, 5; 2 Ki 17:24; John 4:9
6 But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
7 And as you go, preach, saying, ‘The kingdom of heaven is at
hand. Luke 9:2; ch 3:2; Luke 10:9
8 Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils:
freely ye have received, freely give,”
(Gospel Book of Matthew 10:1, 5-8).

81
IF YOU ARE SICK, CALL FOR THE ELDERS OF
THE CHURCH

PRAYER OF A RIGHTEOUS MAN ANOINTING


WITH OIL THE SICK

14 “Is any sick among you?


let him call for the elders of the church; and let them
pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of
the Lord, 15 and the prayer of faith shall save
the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have
committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.
Is. 33:24
16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for
another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent
prayer of a righteous man availeth much, (Epistle of
James 5:14-16).

HEALING OF SPIRITUAL AFFLICTIONS

Emotional Depression. Terrible stress.

13 “Is any among you afflicted? let him pray. Is any merry?
let him sing psalms, (Epistle of James 5:13)

> GOD CREATED THE POWER OF HYMNS, PSALMS,


AND SPIRITUAL SONGS TO HEAL WOUNDED
HUMAN MINDS AND HEARTS.

82
> HE INSPIRED THRU THE HOLY SPIRIT THE
WRITING OF THE PSALMS. THE WRITING BY MEN OF
PURE HEARTS THE WRITING AND COMPOSITION OF
SPIRITUAL SONGS AND HYMNS THROUGHOUT THE
ROLLING CENTURIES, IN EVERY GENERATION OF
BELIEVER AND PRACTITIONERS OF THE FAITH
ONCE DELIVERED.

> THE GOD OF HEAVEN CREATES MOMENT BY


MOMENT MIRACLES OF INSPIRATION AND
UPLIFTMENT IN THE HEARTS AND BEING OF MEN AND
WOMEN IN THE DEPTHS OF SORROW/ DESPAIR.
HOPELESSNESS. PAIN. EMOTIONAL PAIN. MENTAL
DEPRESSION. WHEN EVER THESE BEAUTIFUL HYMNS,
PSALMS, SPIRITUAL SONGS ARE SUNG. WHENEVER THE
WORDS ARE SUNG. WHENEVER THE MELODIES OF THE
LYRICS TAKES WINGS. WHEN EVER THE SOUND OF
MUSIC TAKES THESE THAT HEAR AND LISTEN TO
THEM IN RAPT ATTENTION TO HEAVENLY HEIGHTS
UNSEEN AND CELESTIAL DELIGHTS UNKNOWN.
HEALING OF THE STRICKEN HUMAN HEART, MIND,
AND BEING TAKES PLACE MIRACULOUSLY. JOY
RETURNS TO THE HUMAN HEART, MIND, AND BEING.

> FERVENT BELIEVING PRAYER MUST COME


TOGETHER WITH THE SINGING OF THE HYMNS.
PSALMS. AND SPIRITUAL SONGS.

BY HIS STRIPES YOU ARE HEALED.


(Book of the prophet Isaiah 3:5; First Epistle of Peter 2:24).

83
INVOKE IN PRAYER FOR HEALING BY HIS SHED
BLOOD OF THE PRECIOUS BLOOD OF THE LAMB.
HEALING IS FORGIVENESS OF SINS, (Epistle of James
5:15)

WHENEVER CHRIST HEALED, HE SAID: “YOUR SINS


ARE FORGIVEN.” (Gospel Books of Mark 2:5-11; Luke 5:20-
26).

FAITH IN CHRIST BRINGS HEALING, (Gospel Book of


Luke 7:1-10).

COMPASSION OF CHRIST FOR A WIDOWED


MOTHER WHOSE SON LAY DEAD BROUGHT THAT
DEAD SON BACK TO LIFE, (Gospel Book of Luke 7:12-15).

HEALING IS A DOCTRINE OF GOD. HIS OFFICE IS AS


THE HEALER. THE DIVINE PHYSICIAN. THE
CHURCH OF GOD ADOPTED THIS DOCTRINE.

“I AM the LORD that HEALETH thee,” (Book of Exodus


15:26).

“Bless the LORD O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his
holy name.
2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:
Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy
diseases,” (Book of Psalms 103:1-3). Ex. 15:26; Deut. 7:12-15;
Ps. 130:8; Is. 33:24; Jer. 50:20

84
ACCORDING TO YOUR FAITH, IT SHALL BE
DONE UNTO THEE

13 And Jesus said unto the centurion, ‘Go thy way; and as thou
hast believed, so be it done unto thee.’ And his servant was healed in
the self same hour,”(Matthew 8:13).

SO IT IS WRITTEN. THE CHURCH OF GOD SO BELIEVE.


GOD HEALS ABSOLUTELY.

RAISE THE DEAD.


THE PHYSICALLY DEAD
THE SPIRITUALLY DEAD

3 Art thou he that should come, or do we look for another?


4 Jesus answered and said unto them, ‘Go and show John again
those things which you do hear and see:’
5 The blind receive their sight, and the lame walk, the lepers are
cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the poor have
the gospel preached to them,’ (Gospel Books of Matthew 11:3-11:3-5;
Luke 7:22. Mat. 10:8; Is. 29:18)
29:18)

THE MISSING ELEMENT IN THE RELIGION


OF THE JEWS

23 “Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for


you pay tithe and mint and cummin, and have omitted
the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and

85
faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the
other undone,” (Gospel Book of Matthew 23:23).

RELIGIOUS LEADERS, SUCH AS THOSE SCRIBES AND


PHARISEES, AND THEIR MODERN COUNTERPARTS, ARE
DEEP IN THE ENFORCING OF INFLEXIBLE RULES AND
STERN REGULATIONS THAT STIFLE SPIRITUAL
GROWTH. CHRIST REBUKES THEM FOR SUCH.

ANY MAN, GROUP OF MEN, OR CHURCHES OF MEN


WHO PROFESS GODLINESS, OR FAITH IN GOD, AND
CHRIST, OR TO INVOKE THE NAME OF GOD, OUGHT
TO REMEMBER THIS. ONLY THEN CAN THEY EVEN
BEGIN TO SAY THAT THEY KNOW GOD AND GOD
KNOWS THEM.

“BE YE HOLY FOR I AM HOLY”


HOW?

Listen, mortals, and read what the Divine Creator proclaimed unto
you:

44 “Ye shall therefore sanctify yourselves, and ye shall be


holy; for I am holy: neither shall ye defile yourselves with
any manner of creeping thing that creepeth upon the
earth.
45 For I am the LORD that bringeth you out of the land
of Egypt, to be your God: ye shall therefore be holy, for I
am holy,”(Book of Leviticus 11:44-45).

86
THIS IS THE LAW OF THE CLEAN AND THE UNCLEAN
MEATS. THE FOOD LAW. THE SEPARATION AND
DISTINCTION BETWEEN THE CLEAN AND THE
UNCLEAN MEATS TO EAT, AND NOT TO EAT.
IN MODERN
LANGUAGE, IT IS CALLED “THE DIETARY LAW”. THEY
ARE DESCRIBED IN FULL AND DETERMINATION IN THE
BOOK OF LEVITICUS CHAPTER ELEVEN.

THESE ARE NOT MERE LAWS FOR PHYSICAL GOOD


HEALTH. AS GOD PROCLAIMED. ALTHOUGH THEY
ALSO ARE. FOR ALL HUMANITY. FOR ALL MANKIND,
BORN OF WOMEN, FLESH AND BLOOD, FOR ALL TIMES.
VALID FOR EVERY HUMAN BEING FROM DAY ONE OF
THE CREATION OF MAN, TO EVERY MAN AND WOMAN,
TILL THE RETURN OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST. AND
ON IN THE MILLENNIUM. IN THE 100-YEAR OF
JUDGMENT.

HIS HOLINESS IS UPON YOU IF YOU DO NOT ALLOW


YOUR NATURAL PHYSICAL BODY TO INGEST AND
DIGEST, THEREBY INCORPORATE INTO YOUR BODY
SYSTEM, WHICH IS THE TEMPLE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT,
TO BE DEFILED WITH AND BY, WHAT THE ETERNAL
CREATOR PRONOUNCES AS UNCLEAN. AND DECLARED
BY THE DIVINE CREATOR AS ABOMINATION UNTO
YOU. GOD MADE IT A POINT TO MAKE IT SO CLEAR,
AND UNMISTAKEABLE. IT TAKES FAITH TO BELIEVE
AND PRACTICE THIS FOOD LAW. WITHOUT FAITH, IT
IS NOT POSSIBLE TO PLEASE GOD.

THE VISION OF PETER AND WHAT IT REALLY MEANT


87
10 “And he became very hungry, and would have eaten: but while
they made ready, he fell into a trance.
11 And saw heaven opened, and a certain vessel descended
descended unto him, as it had been a great sheet knit at the four
corners, and let down to the earth. ch/7:56; Rev. 19:11

12 Wherein all manner of fourfooted beasts of the earth,and wild


beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air.
13 And there came a voice to him, “Rise, Peter: kill, and eat.”
14 But Peter said, ‘Not so, Lord, for I have never eaten any thing
that is common, or unclean,”
15 And the voice spoke to him again the second time, ‘What God
hath cleansed, that call not thou common.” ver. 28
16 This was done thrice; and the vessel was received up again into
heaven.
17 Now while Peter doubted in himself what the vision, which he
had seen, should mean.

The apostle Peter recounted the vision to the apostles that were in
Jerusalem.

IN CONCLUSION, they then realized that God had granted


repentance unto life to the Gentiles also. That, henceforth, they
were not to be called unclean, and common, (Book of Acts 10:10-
17; 18—47; 11:1-18).

The apostle Peter, at that point in time, was long past the time when
Christ was with them in His days in human flesh. This proves that
they were taught that the Food Laws were always in effect. That the

88
first Christians knew and lived by the Food Law of Leviticus chapter
eleven.

WHAT COLOSSIANS 3:16 REALLY MEANT

16 “Let no man therefore judge you in meat or in drink,


or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the
Sabbath days.
17 Which are a shadow of things to come, but the body is
of Christ. Heb. 8:5

The Colossian Christians were new converts in the true faith once
delivered to the saints. They were Gentiles in times past, (Epistle to
the Ephesians 2:11). When they commenced in their practice of the
Faith, and lived in the Way, as they were taught by the original
apostles, their neighbors, who were practitioners of the heathen and
pagan ways, and who ate anything they could lay their hands on
without any distinction whatsoever, jeered at them. They laughed at
them. They judged them.

When they observed and kept the weekly holy Sabbath day, the
seventh day, and the tri-annual Sabbath days, and the Holy Feast
Days of God, their unconverted neighbors and the unbelievers
around them, persecuted them, and judged them.

The apostle Paul, Christ’s chosen apostle to the Gentiles, and then
to the former Gentiles, now converted brethren in the Church of the
Living God, wrote the above epistle to them, The brotherhood is
their witness, and to each other, before God. Thereby, the world
outside of the brotherhood can not therefore judge them, (Epistle to
the Colossians 2:16, 17-23).
89
The doctrines of devils believed by the unbelievers forbids to marry,
and commanded to abstain from meats, especially on their
determined particular days, which God has created, and
commanded to be received and eaten with thanks giving, of them
WHICH BELIEVE AND KNOW THE TRUTH, SANCTIFIED
BY THE WORD OF GOD, AND WITH PRAYER, (First Epistle
to Timothy 4:1-5).

The Book of Leviticus chapter eleven pronounced the type of clean


meats to be eaten, and considered for FOOD. They were sanctified.
Set apart. By these very word of God. ONLY THE BRETHREN
BELIEVED AND KNEW THE TRUTH.

Chapter Four

WHAT TRUE RELIGION IS


ALL ABOUT
26 If any man among you seem to be religious, and
bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this
man’s religion is vain. 27 Pure religion and undefiled
before God and the Father is this, ‘To visit the fatherless
and the widows in their affliction, and to keep himself
unspotted from the world,” (Epistle of James 1:26-
1:26-27). Ps.
34:13

The endless, useless wars and conflicts men engaged themselves in


prematurely, and forcibly, removed fathers, brothers, sons, and other
kindred men folks from the communities of man. Many other fatal
causes inflicted on similar men folks left a terrible void.

The world is so much poorer in the forced demise of male leaders,


husbands, fathers, and providers for families.

This left behind grieving widows. Helpless orphans. Multitude of


fragile fatherless children in the world of the living. Deprived of the
steady and strong guiding hand of fathers and breadwinners.

91
The yawning void in the lives of widows and fatherless children
produces so much pain and sense of loss, as well as a sense of
direction and purpose. A vast chasm of emptiness in the lives of
them who were left behind. Of these that the ever Merciful and
Loving God cares for, so that He set His Will for them in sacred
Scriptures. The rudder by which these families are moving on in the
world is missing. God their Father would will that void be filled by
those who would profess to practice the religion God approves of,
and consider to be true.

THE GOD OF HEAVEN looks down from His Everlasting


Throne of mercy and loving kindness, and sees all of these.

He decrees that every one who confesses the true Faith once
delivered must remember all these mortals bereft of husbands and
fathers.
To remember them with mercy and loving kindness as God does.

To take time, and space, in their work-a-day lives and in their


prayers and thoughts on behalf of them.

Surely, if they do, they would be on God’s side. And God blesses
them who choose to come on His side for these.

THE FOUNDATION OF
THE DOCTRINES
FOLLOWED AND KEPT BY
THE CHURCH OF GOD
God is Love. God is Light. God is Full of Compassion. Mercy.
Justice. Faith. Truth. Vision. Hope. Christ is The Life. Christ is
The Truth. Christ is The Way. Christ is the Resurrection.

ON NO OTHER FOUNDATION THAN FROM THESE


MUST THE BELIEVER AND PRACTITIONER OF THE
FAITH ONCE DELIVERED TO THE SAINTS BUILD HIS
SPIRITUAL LIFE AND BEING

11 “For other foundations can no man lay than that is


laid, which is Jesus Christ,”
12 Now if any man build upon this foundation gold,
silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble;
13 Every man’s work shall be made manifest: for the
day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire;
93
and the fire shall try every man’s work of what sort it
is.” First Epistle to the Corinthians 3:11-13).

ALL DOCTRINES PROCEED FROM THESE. FROM


THEM PROCEED THE DRINK OF LIVING WATERS
FOR THOSE WHO THIRST. THE LIVING BREAD FOR
THE HUNGRY IN THEIR HEART.

(First Epistle to Timothy 3:15).

EMANATE FROM WITHIN OF GOD’S CIRCUIT AND

 LOVE.

Mystery of the LIVING GOD – Part 1

Chapter Six

BODY OF BELIEFS IN THE


FAITH ONCE DELIVERED
TO THE SAINTS
IN THE SCRIPTURES IT IS WRITTEN
AND SO THE CHURCH MUST AND OUGHT TO
BELIEVE AND FOLLOW.
THUS, SAITH THE LORD

ABOVE ALL, KNOW GOD…


FIRST AND FOREMOST

“God is a Spirit: And they that worship him must


worship him in spirit and in truth, (Gospel Book of John
4:23-
4:23-24). Phil 3:3; ch 1:17

MAN MADE A SERIOUS MISTAKE IN CRITICALLY


ANALYZING GOD. RELIGIOUS SCHOLARS,
INCLUDING ZEALOUS RELIGIOUS LEADERS AND
TEACHERS DO NOT UNDERSTAND. GOD IS A DIVINE
SPIRIT. NOT TO BE ASSIDUOUSLY ANALYZED,
INCLUDING CRITICALLY. NOT TO BE DIGITALLY

98
ANALYZED, OBSERVED, AND MEASURED, EVEN
DISECTED, UPTO TO THE CELLULAR AND ATOMIC
LEVEL.

THE REALM AND THE NON-VISIBLE, NON-PHYSICAL,


NON-MATERIAL, DIMENSION OF THE SPIRIT IS ONE
OF LIVING ABSOLUTE BELIEVING FAITH. ON ONE’’S
KNEES IN ALL YIELDEDNESS AND HUMBLENESS
MUST ONE READ THE SCRPTURES ON GOD. THEN
THE GOD OF HEAVEN WILL BE PLEASED TO OPEN
HIS MIND TO UNDERSTAND.

2 “For all these things hath mine hand made, and all those
things have been,” saith the LORD: ‘but to this man will I look,
even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at
my word,” (Book of Isaiah 66:2).

MEN END UP BEING UNBELIEVERS. SKEPTICS.


PROUDLY CYNICAL. THEY ARE GIVEN OVER TO A
REPROBATE MIND, INSTEAD.

PROUD, INTELLIGENT, BRAINY MORTALS BEGIN TO


BE PUFFED UP. IN THE VANITY OF THEIR MINDS,
EVEN IN THEIR HEART OF HEARTS, THEY THINK
THEY CAN DISCOVER GOD. THEIR ENDLESS
RESEARCH BRINGS THEIR MINDS UPTO A CEILING
SOMEWHERE IN THE VOID. AND LIKE A CRYSTAL
THAT BREAKS. NOT INTO UNDERSTANDING, BUT
TO THE FORBIDDEN REALM OF THE MIND WHERE
PRIDE AND VANITY DWELLS. THIS LEADS TO
CONCLUSIONS SET IN STONE. INTO DOCTRINES
IMPOSED UPON “LESSER” OTHERS. SUCH WAS
99
LUCIFER’S, “PERFECT IN BEAUTY AND WISDOM”
SYNDROME, ( Books of the prophets Isaiah 14:12-14; Ezekiel
27:3; 28:2-3, 12-15; 29:3, 17).

IT BECOMES EXTREMELY DANGEROUS TO


HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS WHEN THESE
“DOCTRINES” BECOME THE “DOCTRINES AND
CREEDS ADOPTED BY POWERFUL RELIGIOUS
CONCLAVES AND COUNCILS.” AND ARE THEN
IMPOSED UPON THEIR FOLLOWERS TO BE
BELIEVED AND PRACTICED.

GOD REVEALS HIMSELF.

BY THE HOLY SPIRIT, GOD REACHES AND


CONNECTS TO THE CARNAL HUMAN MIND.

IT IS NOT FOR MEN TO RESEARCH HIM, IN-DEPTH,


AS THEY CALL IT TODAY.

IT IS FOR MEN TO SEEK HIM THAT HE MAY HE MAY


WORSHIP AND SERVE HIM. NOT TO INVESTIGATE
HIM. THOSE WHO DO ARE CURSED WITH A CURSE.
LIKE AN AUTOMATIC LAW THAT GOD HAS SET IN
MOTION.

A VAST GULF LIES BETWEEN ‘REASEARCHING’ GOD,


IN-DEPTH, WITH ALL THE TOOLS OF MODERN
SCHOLARSHIP AND ANALYSIS, AND THEN TO
ADORN THEIR NAMES WITH A PUBLISHED THESIS
ON GOD >>>>AND SEEKING GOD TO WORSHIP,

100
ADORE, LOVE, AND PRAISE, AND FOLLOW, AND
OBEY, HIM.

MEN INTRUDE DISRESPECTFULLY, EVEN WITH


PROUD COUNTENANCE, AND DARING, INTO THE
DIMENSION. IN THE REALM OF THE LIGHT, WHERE
HE DWELLS, THAT GOD OWNS FOR HIMSELF AND
BELONGS TO HIM, BECAUSE HE IS GOD.

The heaven, even the heavens, are the LORD’s, but the earth,
hath he given to the children of men, (Book of Psalms 115:16).

THEY ARE LONG DEAD AND TURNED TO DUST


THOSE THAT BLASPHEMED AND DENIED GOD.
FORGOTTEN IN THE BANISHED GARBAGE HEAP OF
HISTORY.

CHRIST GAVE UNDERSTANDING OF THE


SCRIPTURES

44 “And he said unto them, ‘These are the words which I spake
unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be
fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the
prophets, and in the psalms concerning me. Ver. 6
45 Then opened he their understanding, that they might
understand the scriptures,” (Gospel Book of Luke 24:44-45).

“For thou, LORD, art high above all the earth: thou art exalted
above all gods,” (Book of Psalms 97::9)

FOR HE IS GOD THE ALMIGHTY


101
“HAVE YOU NOT KNOWN?
>>>>>>>>>>>> HAVE YOU NOT HEARD?
21 HATH IT NOT BEEN TOLD YOU FROM THE
BEGINNING? HAVE YE NOT UNDERSTOOD FROM THE
FOUNDATIONS OF THE EARTH? Ps 19:1; Acts 14:17;
Rom.1:19

22 IT IS HE THAT SITTETH UPON THE CIRCLE OF THE


EARTH, AND THE INHABITANTS THEREOF ARE AS
GRASSHOPPERS;THAT STRETCHES OUT THE HEAVENS
AS A CURTAIN, AND SPREADETH THEM OUT AS A TENT
TO DWELL IN: Job 9:8; Ps 104:2

23 THAT MAKETH THE PRINCES TO NOTHING, HE


MAKETH THE JUDGES OF THE EARTH AS VANITY,”

25 TO WHOM WILL YE LIKEN ME, OR SHALL I BE


EQUAL? SAITH THE HOLY ONE. ver 8

26 Lift up your eyes on high, and behold who hath created these
things, that bringeth not their hosts by number: he calleth them all
by names by the greatness of his might, for that he is strong in
power; not one faileth. Ps 147:3

27 Why sayest thou, O Jacob, and speakest, O Israel, My way is hid


from the LORD, and my judgment is passed over from God?

28 Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting
God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth fainteth not,
neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding, (Book
of the prophet Isaiah 40:21-28). Ps 147:5
102
9 And thou, Solomon, my son, KNOW THOU THE GOD OF
THY FATHER, and serve Him with a perfect heart and with a
willing mind; for the LORD searcheth all hearts, and understandeth
all the imaginations of the thoughts: if thou seek Him, He will be
found of thee; but if thou forsake him, he will cast thee off forever,”
(First Book of Chronicles 28:9). Jer 9:24

SO IT IS WRITTEN. THE CHURCH OF GOD SO


BELIEVE

KNOW THAT GOD IS THE DIVINE FAMILY, AND


THE KINGDOM, OF GOD

14 “For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus
Christ. 15 Of whom the whole family on heaven and earth is
named.”
(Epistle to the Ephesians 3:15)

6” For unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his
shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The
mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
7 Of the increase of his government, there shall be no end, upon the
throne of his father David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and
to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even
forever. The zeal of the LORD will perform this,”
(Book of the prophet Isaiah 9:6-
9:6-7)

SO IT IS WRITTEN. THE CHURCH OF THE LIVING


GOD SO BELIEVE.
103
DOCTRINE OF THE GODHEAD

TWO DIVINE BEINGS ARE MEMBERS OF THE


GODHEAD OF THE ONE TRUE GOD:

26 “ Let us make man in our image, after our likeness…” (Book


of Genesis 1:26)

1 “In the beginning was the word, and the word was with God,
and the word was God,” (Gospel Book of John 1:1).

> ANCIENT OF DAYS


GOD THE FATHER, (Gospel Book of John 6:27; Epistle to the
Romans 15:6); HOLY FATHER, (Gospel Book of John 17:11);
RIGHTEOUS FATHER, (Gospel Book of John 17:25); THE
ANCIENT OF DAYS, (Book of the prophet Daniel 7:9. 13, 22);
THE LORD GOD, (Gospel Book of Luke 1:32).
From eternity to all eternity, HE IS GOD.
He created by His Word, thru THE WORD, Who was God with
God, (Gospel Book of John 1:1; Epistle to the Hebrews 1:8-10),
they were created, and came into being, (“Let there be>>>>> Books
of Genesis 1; Revelation 4:11).
By the power of the Holy Spirit (Power of the HIGHEST, (Gospel
Book of Luke 1:35), all things came to be.

MAN CAN NOT BY HIS LIMITED COMPREHENSION


UNDERSTAND HOW THE SPIRIT CREATES. MEN IS
LIMITED TO CONCEIVING IN COMPARTMENTS AND
MODULES- WHETHER MICRO, OR MACRO
DIMENSIONS, OF CREATED SUBSTANCES. OR SOLID
104
MATTER. MEASURABLE, OBSERVABLE BY HIS LIMITED 5
SENSES, WITH THE UTILIZATION OF MECHANICAL
TOOLS HE FABRICATED.

THE SPIRIT DIMENSION IS BEYOND THE REACHABLE


REALM OF MEN’S LIMITED TIME AND CONCEPTION,
WHICH ARE SEAMLESS, AND ARE ONE INTEGRATED
WHOLE.

THE LORD (YHVH—YAHWEH/JEHOVAH OF THE OLD


TESTAMENT IS THE ROCK HE IS THE SAME ROCK (First
Epistle to the Corinthians 10:4). WHO WAS CHRIST.

JESUS THE CHRIST OF GOD IS, THEREFORE, EL


SHADDAI), THE JEHOVAH / YHVH / YAHWEH OF THE
OLD TESTAMENT SCRIPTURES. THE SAME OLD
TESTAMENT TESTIFY OF JESUS CHRST, (Gospel Book of
John 5:39). THE SAME GOD IN THE BEGINNING IS THE
GOD WITH GOD (Hebrew: elohiym) IN THE BOOK OF
GENESIS 1:1. HE IS THE MELCHISEDEC, KING OF SALEM,
WHICH IS KING OF PEACE, WITHOUT FATHER,
WITHOUT MOTHER, WITHOUT DESCENT, HAVING
NEITHER BEGINNING OF DAYS, NOR END OF LIFE; TO
WHOM ABRAHAM PAID TITHES; MADE LIKE UNTO THE
SON OF GOD; ABIDETH A PRIEST CONTINUALLY, (Books
of Genesis 14:18; Psalms 110:4; Epistle to the Hebrews 5:6, 10:6;
6:20; 7:1-3, 10, 11; 10).

39 “Search the Scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life,


and they are they which testify of me,” (Gospel Book of John 5:39).
(Moses wrote of Christ: see verse 46).

105
WHEN ONE MEMBER OF THE GODHEAD WAS
MANIFEST IN THE FLESH, (Mystery of Godliness, I Tim 3:16)

HE SAID: NO MAN KNOWS THE FATHER, (Gospel Books of


Matthew 11:27; Luke 10:22;

NO ONE HEARD HIS VOICE, NOR SEEN HIS SHAPE;


(Gospel Book of John 5:37).

NO ONE HAS SEEN GOD AT ANYTIME, (John 1:18; 1 John


4:12). Ex. 33:20; Mat 11:27; 1 Tim. 6:16.

MOSES SAW GOD. THE ELDERS OF ISRAEL SAW GOD,


9 Then went up Moses and Aaron, Nadah and Abihu, and seventy
of the elders of Israel:
10 And they saw the God of Israel, and there was under his feet as it
were a paved work of sapphire stone, and as it were the body of
heaven in his clearness,
11 And upon the nobles of the children of Israel he laid his hand:
also they saw God, and did eat and drink,” (Book of Exodus 24:11).

THE SON CAME TO MAKE KNOWN THE FATHER TO


THE HUMAN RACE.

> FIRST, TO THE APOSTLES. TO THE EARLY BELIEVERS.


AND BY THEM TO THE REST OF THE WORLD. THRU
THE HOLY SCRIPTURES.

> THEN TO MANKIND,

READERS OF THE OLD AND NEW TESTAMENT TODAY


SEE THE OLD TESTAMENT SCRIPTURES ABOUT THE
106
LORD. YHVH. JEHOVAH. YAHWEH. I AM, EL SHADDAI.
ADONAI, MELCHISEDEC. AND A HOST OF OTHER
DIVINE NAMES.
THEY ARE ONE
AND THE SAME DIVINE BEING WHO BECAME
MANIFEST IN THE FLESH, A HUMAN IN FLESH AND
BLOOD, BORN OF A VIRGIN,, JESUS THE CHRIST. THE
WORD WHO WAS IN THE BEGINNING WITH GOD. THE
WORD, HE WAS GOD, GOD WITH GOD, (Gospel Book of
John 1:1; Epistle to the Hebrews 1:5, 8).

WHEN HIS EARTHLY MISSION OF 33 ½ YEARS WAS


OVER, HE ASKED GOD THE FATHER TO RESTORE HIM
TO THE GLORY HE HAD WITH THE FATHER IN THE
GODHEAD (New Testament)-Elohiym (Old Testament)
BEFORE THE WORLD WAS.

BACK TO BEING GOD IN THE GODHEAD WITH GOD


THE FATHER, (Gospel Book of John17:5).

‘SEARCH THE SCRIPTURES.” HE COMMANDED, (Gospel


Book of John 5:39).

46 “For had you believed Moses, you would have believed me, for
he wrote of me. But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye
believe my words?” (Gospel Book of John 5:46).

MOSES WROTE MOSTLY ABOUT THE LORD. YHVH.


YAHWEH, JEHOVAH. EL SHADDAI. THE “I AM”, YET
JESUS CHRIST STATED THAT MOSES WROTE ABOUT
CHRIST, (Gospel Book of John 5:46). SO MOSES WAS
WRITING ABOUT THE CHRIST, SO WRITTEN ABOUT IN
107
THE NEW TESTAMENT IN GREEK, NAMED LORD,
JEHOVAH, YHVH IN THE OLD TESTAMENT
SCRIPTURES, WRITTEN IN THE ORIGINAL HEBREW.

CHRIST in Greek: Christos. Yashua. JESUS.. Messiah. Emmanuel.


Son of David, Son of man. Son of God. I AM, Savior. The WORD.
Alpha and Omega.Bright and Morning Star. Daystar. The Lord.
Only Begotten Son. The last Adam. Son of man. Son of God. Lamb
of God. Savior., Great God. Captain of our Salvation. Author and
Finisher of the Faith. Teacher. Master. My Lord. My God.
Mediator between God and man. Apostle of our Faith. High Priest.
Cornerstone. Redeemer. Emmanuel. The Way. The Truth. The
Life. The Resurrection.

THE ONLY SCRIPTURES AT THAT TIME WERE THE OLD


TESTAMENT SCRIPTURES.

THE NEW TESTA,MENT, WRITTEN IN GREEK, BY THE


APOSTLES, AND PAUL, CHRIST’S APOSTLE TO THE
GENTILES, WERE IN SCROLLS AND LETTERS READ TO
THE CONGREGATIONS OF THE EARLIEST CHURCH OF
GOD. THEY WERE PUT TOGETHER UNDER THE
INSPIRATION OF GOD TO BECOME THE APPROVED
CANON OF NEW TESTAMENT SCRIPTURES:

16 “Bind up the testimony, seal the law among my disciples,” (Book


of the prophet Isaiah 8:16).

WHEN JESUS, THE SON OF MAN, THE SON OF GOD WAS


ON EARTH WITH THE HUMAN RACE 2000 YEARS AGO,
HE REVEALED AND SHED LIGHT ON THE GODHEAD.

108
HIS REVELATION AT THAT TIME TO THE RELIGIOUS
LEADERS OF THE JEWS UPSET THEM. TO THEM, THE
ONE TRUE GOD MEANS ONE DIVINE BEING AND
PERSON. JEHOVAH, YHVH IS HASHEM AS THEY CALL
HIM TODAY. THE TRUTH OF ELOHIYM BEING THE
GODHEAD WITH MORE THAN ONE MEMBER IS
BLASPHEMY TO THEM.

TO US, IT IS ENLIGHTENMENT, FOR IT SET ARIGHT A


WHOLE UNIVERSE OF MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT GOD:

> 1. IN THE GODHEAD, IN Elohiym, WHEREIN THEY ARE


ONE, (Gospel Book of John 10:30), GOD THE FATHER IS
GREATER THAN THE SON WHO IS THE LORD JESUS
CHRIST. WHO WAS JEHOVAH/YAHWEH/YHVH/LORD OF
THE OLD TESTAMENT.
JESUS THE CHRIST, WHO IN THE OLD TESTAMENT, IS
THE LORD, THE ROCK, YIELDS TO THE ANCIENT OF
DAYS, GOD THE FATHER (‘Not my will, but thy will be
done,’(Gospel Book of Luke 22:42)

“My Father is greater than I.” (Gospel Book of John 14:28b).

> 2. GOD THE FATHER, THE ANCIENT OF DAYS, HAVE


NOT SHOWN HIS SHAPE, NEITHER MANKIND HEARD
HIS VOICE.

> 3.THE ELDERS OF ISRAEL SAW GOD. MOSES SAW GOD.


THEY HEARD THE VOICE OF THE ANGEL SPEAKING
FOR GOD. SO THEY SAW THE GOD OF ISRAEL,
JEHOVAH/YAHWEH/LORD/THE ROCK.
WHO IS THE GOD THEY SAW?
109
WHY, OF COURSE, THE GOD WHO MANIFESTED IN THE
FLESH. JESUS, THE CHRIST OF GOD.

“IN THE BEGINNING WAS THE WORD, AND THE WORD


WAS WITH GOD. THE WORD WAS GOD,” (Gospel Book of
John 1:1).

26 “AND GOD* SAID, ‘LET US MAKE MAN IN OUR


IMAGE, AFTER OUR LIKENESS: (Book of Genesis 1:26).
(*GOD – (Strong’s # 430 >> heb. elohiym >> plural of eloah (a god,
the Deity, God), singular in use, plural in sense, more than one;
gods in ordinary sense; (God, gods); a compound unity. There is
more than one member, or person, in the Godhead, in Elohiym.

GOD THE FATHER IS THE SUPREME


ARCHITECT OF ALL CREATION
YHVH/JEHOVAH/YAHWEH/THE LORD JESUS
CHRIST/
THE SON OF GOD IS
THE BUILDER OF ALL CREATION THRU THE
HOLY SPIRIT
(THE POWER OF THE HIGHEST)

2 The same was in the beginning with God.


3 All things were made by him, and without him was not any thing
made that was made,” (Gospel Book of John1:1-3).

8 “But unto the Son he saith, ‘Thy throne O God is for ever and
ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom.

110
9 Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God,
even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy
fellows.
10 And, thou Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the
earth; and the heavens are the work of thy hands,” (Epistle to the
Hebrews 1:8-10)

GOD THE FATHER CHOSE NOT TO SHOW HIMSELF TO


THE PHYSICAL WORLD OF HUMAN BEINGS. HE GAVE
THAT RESPONSIBILITY TO THE OTHER PERSON IN THE
GODHEAD>>>> YHVH. HE SENT HIM TO DO IT ON THIS
VERY PLANET EARTH.

GOD THE FATHER IS SO HOLY THAT HE HAD NOT


CHOSEN TO BE IN TOUCH WITH MAN, MADE FROM
THE DUST.

THE GOD WHO BECAME FLESH AND BLOOD JESUS,


HAD COME FACE TO FACE WITH THOSE HE CREATED.
HE HAD TO CONFRONT AND ENDURE THE
CONTRADICTION OF SO MANY SINNERS AGAINST
HIMSELF, (Epistle to the Hebrews 12:3).

BECAUSE IT WAS SO, THE WORLD OF RELIGION MADE


DEEP, PROFOUND, EXTENSIVE, STUDIES AND LONG
YEARS OF RESEARCH, WROTE, AND PUBLISHED THEIR
AUTHORITATIVE OBSERVATIONS AND CONCLUSIONS
ABOUT GOD. AND FINALLY, THEY CONCLUDED: “GOD
IS A TRINITY”. THREE PERSONS CO-EQUAL. EQUAL IN
RANK. AND CELESTIAL DEGREE. BECAUSE “GOD IS ONE
IN THREE.”

111
“Ever searching and never able to come to the knowledge of the
truth,” (Second Epistle to Timothy 3:7).

GOD IS NONE OF THE SORT.

THE LORD JESUS CHRIST WHO CAME FROM HEAVEN


STATED THAT HE ALONE KNOWS GOD THE FATHER,
AND THE FATHER, HIM. AND JESUS, ALONE, CAN TALK
ON THE TRUTH ON GOD THE FATHER, WHICH HE
DID, (Gospel Book of Matthew 11:27).

THE HOLY SPIRIT IS NOT GOD. THE HOLY SPIRIT IS


THE POWER OF THE HIGHEST. THE POWER OF THE
GODHEAD. (Gospel Book of Luke 1:35).

LIMITATIONS IN THE HUMAN LANGUAGE AND


EXPRESSION COULD ONLY DESCRIBE THE HOLY SPIRIT
AS GOD’S ESSENCE. GOD’S AGENT. HIS POWER. THE
POWER OF THE MOST HIGH GOD.

GOD, THE SUPREME GOD IN THE GODHEAD, AND


OVER ALL, REVEALS HIMSELF, IN THIS SACRED GOLDEN
SCROLL SERIES XCI.

HE WOULD NOT ALLOW HIS TRUE IMAGE AND TRUE


BEING, TO BE MANIPULATED BY PICKY, PICAYUNISH
FLESH AND BLOOD MORTALS, AND CARICATURED IN
THEIR MINDS AND UNDERSTANDING OF HIM WHO
MADE THEM. THEIR PUBLICATIONS CLAIMING FULL
AUTHORITY TO REVEAL HIM DOES NOT HAVE
APPROVAL OF GOD THE FATHER. NOT BY JESUS CHRIST
WHO ALONE KNOWS HIM.
112
THAT APPROVAL CAN ONLY COME FROM JESUS
CHRIST, WHO ALONE SPEAKS FOR GOD THE FATHER.
HE HAD IT WRITTEN IN THE HOLY SCRIPTURES:

NO MAN KNOWS THE FATHER –


(Gospel Book of Matthew 11:27)

THE AUTHOR OF THE HOLY SCRIPTURES EXPRESSLY


FORBID ADDING, OR SUBTRACTING ANYTHING TO
THE SCRIPTURES.

WHO, AND WHAT, WAS JESUS BEFORE HIS HUMAN


BIRTH?

SINCERE BELIEVERS GET CONFUSED BY THE


SCRIPTURES THAT, WHEN CORRECTLY LINKED
TOGETHER, STATES:

JESUS CHRIST IS THE GOD OF THE OLD


TESTAMENT

10 “YE ARE MY WITNESSES,” saith the LORD, and my


servant
servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me,
and understand that I am he: before me there was no God
formed, neither shall there be after me,” (Book of the prophet
Isaiah 43:10).

WAS THE GOD OF THE OLD TESTAMENT FORMED?

113
WAS THE ANCIENT OF DAYS ALONE AS THE
GOD IN THE GODHEAD – IN ELOHIYM –
BEFORE JEHOVAH/YAHWEH/ YHVH?

FIRST OF GOD’S CREATION - WHAT DOES IT REALLY


MEAN?
14 “And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write:
‘These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the
beginning of the creation of God,” (Book of Revelation 3:14).

‘AMEN >>>is Jesus Christ > Jesus Christ is the spiritual Rock (1
Cor 3:10), the Rock is YHVH /LORD/Yahweh/Jehovah/the
Eternal/ >>>> is the God with GOD (The Father) >>>> is the God
of the Old Testament>>>>who was the Creator in the Beginning
(Gen 1:1, John 1:1).

QUESTION:

Was YHVH who became Jesus Christ CREATED?

The confusion, debates, and arguments running to and fro, back


and forth, even among the leaders of major religious organizations,
and front-ranked religious scholars, circa 2000-2010 goes on.

THE LORD JESUS CHRIST WHO WAS THE ROCK (First


Epistle to the Corinthians 3:10), WHO WAS THE YHVH,
REVEALED, IN THE ONLY INTIMATE CONVERSATION /
COMMUNICATION BY JESUS CHRIST, THE SON OF GOD,
TO GOD THE FATHER, IN THE GOSPEL BOOK OF JOHN
17:1-26, particularly verse 15:

114
“AND NOW, O FATHER, GLORIFY THOU ME WITH
THINE OWN SELF WITH THE GLORY THAT I HAD WITH
THEE BEFORE THE WORLD WAS.”
Phil. 2:6; Col. 1:15; Heb. 1:3

“ Glory that I had with thee …


Glory of God with GOD >>>> before the world was – BEFORE
CREATION >>>BEFORE THE BEGINNING>>>>BEFORE
GENESIS 1:1, AND JOHN 1:1>>>>BEFORE TIME BEGAN---
THE God WITH GOD was there. No beginning. No father. No
mother. Liveth forever from eternity to eternity. HE WAS IN
ELOHIYM. HE WAS God WITH GOD IN THE GODHEAD.

YHVH WOULD ANSWER THE QUESTION RAISED FOR


MORE THAN A THOUSAND YEARS ABOUT WHETHER
CHRIST WAS CREATED BEFORE HIS HUMAN BIRTH,
WHEN HE WAS THE ROCK, (First Epistle to the Corinthians
10:4), THE SAME YHVH OF THE OLD TESTAMENT, IN
THE BOOK OF JOHN 17:5, AND TRIGGERED BY THE
BOOK OF REVELATION 3:14 IN ITS TRANSLATION INTO
THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE BY TRANSLATORS OF THE
AUTHORIZED KING JAMES VERSION, AND SEIZED
UPON BY SCHOLARS AND RELIGIOUS LEADERS TO
MEAN CHRIST, BEFORE HIS HUMAN BIRTH, WAS
FORMED AND CREATED.

HE NOW SITS AT THE RIGHT HAND OF GOD, ANEW,


RESTORED TO, AND IN, THAT POSITION AND GLORY
OF DIVINE AUTHORITY, WHICH HE HAD WITH THE
FATHER IN THE GODHEAD, EVEN BEFORE THE
BEGINNING OF CREATION AND TIME. AND HAVING
THE FULL TRUST AND CONFIDENCE OF GOD THE
115
FATHER, AND ONENESS WITH HIM. NOBODY. NO
OTHER GOD, SITS BESIDE HIM, EVEN AS HE SITS BY
THE RIGHT HAND SIDE OF GOD THE FATHER – THE
ANCIENT OF DAYS, ON HIS THRONE IN HEAVEN. NO
GOD OF HIS AUTHORITY AND POSITION IN THE
GODHEAD WILL EVER BE FORMED, CREATED, OR
MADE, (Books of Psalms 1:1, 5; Acts 2:33; 7:55; Epistle to the
Hebrews 1:13).

NO ONE, NO OTHER GOD, SITS BY HIS SIDE IN THE


GODHEAD, WHERE GOD THE FATHER SITS SUPREME
RULER ON HIS EVERLASTING THRONE.

THOSE WHO INTRUDE BY INTRUSIVE HUMAN


INQUIRY, VANITY, AND PROUD CURIOSITY, INTO THE
DEEPEST SECRETS OF GOD, THE GODHEAD, WHICH
BELONGS TO GOD, ARE IN GRAVE PERIL OF LOSING
THEIR PRICELESS SPIRITUAL LIBERTY GRANTED BY THE
LORD GOD ALMIGHTY, SUPREME GOVERNOR OF THE
HEAVENS AND THE EARTH. LEST THEY BE TURNED
OVER INTO A REPROBATE MIND, PARALLEL TO
LUFICER’s, INTO SATAN, THE DEVIL.

29“THE SECRET THINGS BELONG UNTO THE LORD


OUR GOD: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and
our children forever, that we may do all the words of this law,”
(Book of Deuteronomy 29:29).

THOSE WHO WILL BE BORN AGAIN INTO THE GOD


FAMILY, WILL BE MADE MEMBERS OF THE DIVINE
FAMILY. THEY WILL ALL BE CHILDREN OF GOD. NONE
AMONG THEM WILL BE IN THE GODHEAD, WHERE
116
GOD THE FATHER AND CHRIST THE SON OF GOD ARE
SO POSITIONED IN THE FAMILY, AND KINGDOM, OF
GOD.
AT THAT POINT IN TIME, ALAS, IN THE REALM OF
EVERLASTING, THE GODHEAD WILL REVEAL THE
DEEPEST MYSTERIES OF GOD TO HIS IMMORTAL
CHILDREN.

AND SO, THE


THE LORD God OF THE OLD TESTAMENT
DECLARED: “THERE IS NO OTHER GOD BESIDE ME.”

THE GODHEAD – NEW TESTAMENT


ELOHIYM – OLD TESTAMENT

THIS REVELATION FROM GOD EXPLAINS THE TRUTH


OF THE DUALITY IN ELOHIYM. A Hebrew word that is
singular in use, and plural in sense. A compound unity. More than
one member, or person in Elohiym (Godhead).

There is ONE Elohiym. Written in translations from the Hebrew


word as LORD (KJV).
There is ONE GODHEAD.
Written in English translations from the Greek, as Godhead, (KJV).

There is ONE TRUE GOD. The Highest.

The HOLY SPIRIT is the power of the Highest, (Gospel Book of


Luke 1:35).

THEREBY GOD IS NOT A “TRINITY”.

117
The word “trinity” does not appear in the original New Testament
scriptures. Holy Scriptures. Scriptures used to imply it is an error by
addition by the original translators, who believed in the doctrine of
the “Trinity:”

7 “For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father,
the Word,
Word, and the Holy Spirit, and these three are one.” (First
Epistle of John 5:7).
8 *And there are three that bear witness on earth, the spirit,
and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one.”
(First Epistle of John 5:8).

{Comma Johanneum, the Trinitarian formula, made its way


into the third edition of Erasmus’ Greek NT (1522), after his
first edition (1516) which did not contain it, because he found
no Greek manuscripts that included it. It was heavily criticized.
He obliged, and put the reading
readin g into his later addition after
pressure from the Catholic Church. The Council of Trent,
1546, decided to include the Comma inreadings in the Catholic
Church, and incorporated it in their Old Latin Vulgate.

This was accepted into many fundamentalist Protestant


Protestant and
Baptist churches, till today.

Wikipedia encyclopedia} The above two verses were retained in


translations by religious organizations that used it to support
their belief in the Trinity doctrine}

OCEANS OF WORDS TO PROMOTE AND PROVE THE


TRINITY DOCTRINE
DOCTRINE ARE JUST THAT: OCEANS OF

118
WORDS SIGNIFYING NOTHING. FOR IT DOES NOT
EXIST IN REALITY.

THIS DOCTRINE, BELIEVED BY ANCIENT HEATHEN


AND PAGAN
RELIGIONS, PRECLUDE THE ADDITION OF THE
IMMORTAL CHILDREN OF GOD INTO THE GOD
FAMILY, WHICH FORMS THE CENTRAL
CENTRAL MESSAGE OF
THE TRUE GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD.

THE DOCTRINE OF THE “TRINITY” IS ASSOCIATED


AND ENTWINED WITH THE DOCTRINE OF THE
“IMMORTALITY OF THE SOUL.”

THIS LATTER DOCTRINE NEGATES TRUE


SALVATION. FOR IF SALVATION BRINGS
IMMORTALITY TO THE SAVED
S AVED CHILDREN OF GOD,
WHY THE NEED TO SAVE THEM IF THEIR SOUL IS
ALREADY IMMORTAL? IT IS A SELF-
SELF-CONTRADICTING
DOCTRINE, INDEED!

THE DOCTRINE OF THE TRINITY, BELIEVED BY


HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS, AND THE DOCTRINE OF
THE IMMORTALITY OF THE SOUL, EQUALLY
BELIEVED
BELIEVED BY THE SAME NUMBERS, BLINDED THE
EYES OF MULTITUDES TO THE WONDROUS,
GLORIOUS TRUTH OF THE EVERLASTING GOSPEL
OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD.

THE PURPOSE OF GOD FOR CREATING MANKIND IS TO


CREATE IMMORTAL SONS OF GOD TO BE ADDED TO
THE GOD FAMILY.
119
THE HOLY SPIRIT WILL BE SHARED BY GOD in the fullness
of power WITH THE CHILDREN OF GOD. THIS IS THE
WORK OF GOD.

IT WILL BE THE SPIRITUAL POWER THAT WILL ENABLE


THE CHILDREN OF GOD TO RULE THE UNIVERSE WITH
CHRIST, as heirs, and joint-heirs with HIM, WHEN THEY
INHERIT IT! (Epistle to the Romans 8:16-17.

THE HOLY SPIRIT

> THE POWER OF THE HIGHEST, (Gospel Book of Luke


1:35):
35 “And the angel answered and said unto her. The Holy Spirit
shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall
overshadow thee: therefore also that the holy thing which shall be
born of thee shall be called the Son of God.

> WHEN MAN IS BORN AGAIN, BORN OF THE SPIRIT


INTO THE FAMILY, AND KINGDOM, OF GOD, GOD THE
FATHER WILL SHARE THE HOLY SPIRIT WITH THEM
WHO WILL BECOME IMMORTAL BEINGS. THAT IS THE
ONLY WITH WHICH, AND BY WHICH, THEY TOO, CAN
RULE THE UNIVERSE WITH CHRIST.

GOD RULES THE UNIVERSE BY THE LAW OF LOVE

THEY LIVE BY HIS HOLY WORD

120
I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy
name for thy loving kindness and for thy truth: for thou
hast magnified thy word above all thy name, (Book of Psalms
137:2) Ps 28:2; 1 Ki. 8:29; Ps
5:7

“Man does not live by bread alone, but by every word that
comes out of the mouth of God,” (Gospel Books of Matthew
4:4; Luke 4:4).

SO IT IS WRITTEN THE CHURCH OF GOD SO BELIEVE

WHY IS THERE IS DUALITY IN MAN’S


NATURE?

> 1. “Of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not
eat of it. For in the day thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely
die,”(Book of Genesis 2:16-17).

> Be very careful that, even as it is proferred to you, and attempts


are made to teach truth and error together TO YOU, ACCEPT IT
NOT. INGEST NOT, NEITHER EAT. Assimilate it not into your
mind that it becomes your guiding store of knowledge and
understanding. For if you do, your wisdom will be as flawed as the
rest of the world.

THE PERPLEXITY APOSTLE PAUL WRESTLED WITH

15 For that which I do I allow not; for what I would, that do I not,
but what I hate, that do I.
16 Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.
121
17 For know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good
thing: for to will is present with me; but now to perform that which
is good I find not. Gen. 6:5; 8:21

19 For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would
not, that I do.
20 Now If I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin
that dwelleth in me.
21 I find then a law, that when I would do good, evil is present
with me.
22 For I delight in the law of God after the inward man.
23 But I see another law in my members, warring against the law
of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which
is in my members.
Gal. 5:17; ch. 6:13, 19
24 O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body
of this death?
25 I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the
mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of
sin,” (Epistle to the Romans 7: 25).

THE SEED OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOOD AND EVIL


INCORPORATED INTO MAN’S VERY DNA. THIS
PRODUCES THIS DUALITY IN EVERY MAN. THIS
PRODUCES THE NEVER ENDING INNER CONFLICT
WITHIN EVERY MAN AND WOMAN ON EARTH. THE
APOSTLE PAUL ARTICULATED THIS DILEMMA, BY
ADMITTING ITS VERY PRESENCE IN HIMSELF.

SO IT IS WRITTEN. THE CHURCH OF GOD SO BELIEVE.

122
Thereby Live by the Pure Word of God

DO YOU HAVE AN IMMORTAL SOUL?

> Man CREATED. Read how it all began:

7 “And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground,
and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a
living soul,*” (Book of Genesis 2:7). ch 3:19, 23

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*heb. nephesh >>>> that which breathes; a breathing creature;
mortally (Strong’s: 5315).
*Gk. psuche >>>> used interchangeably: spirit, soul; , vitality,
linked with emotion, emotional life; life, linked with mind and
heart, seat of thinking , feeling, and purpose, (Strong’s: 5590).

> Man became a living soul. Yes, man is a living soul.

SO MAN DOES NOT HAVE A SOUL INSIDE HIS MORTAL


BODY. HE IS A LIVING SOUL.

“The soul that sinneth, it shall die,” (Book of Ezekiel 18:4, 20).
Rom 6:23

SO MAN DOES NOT HAVE AN IMMORTAL SOUL.

SO IT IS WRITTEN. THE CHURCH OF GOD SO


BELIEVE.

123
THERE IS A SPIRIT IN MAN

8 “But there is a spirit* in man: and the inspiration of the Almighty


giveth them understanding,” (Book of Job 32:8). Prov 2:6

*SPIRIT- Gk. pneuma >>>>non-physical element that God formed


in man, Blended with his physical brain, his mind is formed, that
will enable him to receive and understand spiritual truths. To enable
him to distinguish between right and wrong, and make decisions,
thereby. He then is able to think, and reason. By free will, he can
make choices, make decisions to do, or not to do.

His mind, with the spirit-in-man, can then be reached with


inspiration by the Holy Spirit, to form both human, and spiritual,
character. It records the chronicles of his entire life and his spiritual
character as finally formed. When man dies, his spirit returns to the
man’s Creator, GOD, for safekeeping, so to speak, (Book of
Ecclesiastes 12:7):

7 “Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was; and the spirit
shall return unto God who gave it.” Gen. 3:10; ch. 3:21

God reaches out to man, and the Spirit of God links to man’s spirit
to give man, by inspiration, wisdom and understanding.

1 “The burden of the word of the LORD for Israel, saith the
LORD, which stretcheth forth the heavens, and layeth the
foundation of the earth, and formeth the spirit of man within him,”
(Books of the prophets Zechariah 12:1; Isaiah 42:5).

124
THIS IS THE SAME SPIRIT THAT LATER IN DEATH
RETURNS TO THE DIVINE CREATOR. THE CHARACTER
FORMED, BUILT, AND PERFECTED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT
IN MAN, OVER A SPIRITUALLY CONVERTED LIFETIME
WILL BE THE VERY CONSTITUENT SPIRIT AND MIND
THAT GOD WILL INVEST WITH A SPIRITUAL BODY TO
BECOME HIS IMMORTAL SON, HIS CHILD WHO WILL
LIVE FOREVER. THIS IS THE TRUE SALVATION WHICH
IS A GIFT OF GOD, AND GRANT THE REWARD OF A
CROWN OF LIFE, WITH HONOR AND GLORY.

27 “For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with
his angels: and the he shall reward every man according to his
works,” (Gospel Book of Matthew 16:28).

CREATION. NOT EVOLUTION


THE TRUE STORY OF CREATION.

In the Book of *Genesis 1:1-2, it is written:


1 IN THE BEGINNING, GOD* CREATED THE HEAVEN
AND THE EARTH. John 1:1; Heb 1:10; Ps 8:3

2 AND THE EARTH WAS** WITHOUT FORM**** AND


VOID****a; AND DARKNESS WAS UPON THE FACE OF
THE DEEP. AND THE SPIRIT OF GOD*** MOVED UPON
THE FACE OF THE WATERS, (Book of Genesis 1:1-1).
*Genesis – heb. “genesis”, beginning.

God* – heb. “elohiym”, a uniplural word, a compound unity. More


than one person, divine being in the Godhead.
Was** - Strong’s # 1961--- heb. :“hayah”, to be, become, became
Spirit renewest the face of the earth***
125
(Book of Psalms 104:30)

Without form****>> Strong’s # 8414 heb.: “tohuw”—confusion,


desolate, empty, wilderness, state of vanityl
and VOID****a >> heb. ““bohuw” >> emptiness, void, destroyed
wasteland
hebrew >> Tohuw va bohuw is a phrase that go together as used in
the Bible, (Book of the prophets Isaiah 35:18; and Jeremiah 4:23).

NOTE: The planet Earth was created most beautiful and ultra
magnificent in perfect order. At that time, in its beginning, the
sons* of GOD – the angels of heaven beheld it and sang for joy,
(Book of Job 38:7). Ch 1:6*

ALL THE SHARPEST SPACE TELESCOPES, SUCH AS THE


“HUBBLE”, SHOW DESOLATION IN ALL THE SOLAR
SYSTEM, AND HEAVENLY BODIES BEYOND. ONLY THE
PLANET EARTH MANIFEST EXCEEDING BEAUTY AND
DYNAMIC LIFE EXISTING.

LIVING CREATURES OF ALL TYPES AND SPECIES. FLORA


AND FAUNA OF INCREDIBLE VARIETY. OCEAN AND
SEAS. AND FRESH WATER LAKES AND RIVERS TEEMING
WITH LIFE.

ALL FOR THE USE AND BENEFIT OF MAN. AND THE


FOOD CHAIN IN A PERFECT SYMBIOTIC RELATIONSHIP.

ONLY THE PLANET EARTH SHOW BALANCE IN NATURE


AND THE EXISTENCE OF ACTIVE, OPERATING
SYMBIOSIS AMONG LIVING THINGS.

126
THE AWESOME
DESIGN AND ORDER IN CREATION IS VISIBLE,
EVIDENT, MEASURABLE, AND OBSERVABLE.
THEY ALL SHOW THE PRESENCE OF THE ALL-WISE, ALL-
KNOWING CREATOR GOD WHO MADE THEM ALL.

ALL CREATION BEARS THE SIGNATURE OF THE


OMNIPOTENT, OMNIPRESENT, CREATOR GOD.

THEY ARE FOOLS WHO SAY THERE IS NO GOD, (Book of


Psalms 14:1; 53:1).

SO IT IS WRITTEN. THE CHURCH OF GOD SO


BELIEVE.

THE ORIGINAL CREATED EARTH BECAME…

WHY DID IT BECOME TOHU AND BOHUw, WITHOUT


FORM (IN CONFUSION) AND VOID?

GOD CREATED THE EARTH. PERFECT IN BEAUTY. HE IS


NOT THE AUTHOR OF CONFUSION, BUT DECENCY
AND ORDER, (First Epistle to the Corinthians 14:33).

THE EARTH IS CALCULATED TO BE 4.5 BILLION YEARS


OLD.

ALL AUTHENTIC SCIENTIFIC CALCULATIONS BEAR


THAT OUT. SO THERE WAS A TIME WHEN THE EARTH
WAS NOT.

127
SOME BILLIONS OF YEARS LATER, THE FORMER
ARCHANGEL LUCIFER, FORMER AMGEL OF LIGHT AND
CARETAKER OF PLANET EARTH, CONNIVED WITH ONE
THIRD OF THE CREATED ANGELS OF HEAVEN. THEY
CONFEDERATED IN REBELLION TO OVERTHROW GOD.
Unthinkable, yet true!

THERE WAS A WAR IN HEAVEN

THERE WAS AN INTERSTELLAR WAR IN OUTER SPACE,


BETWEEN THE FAITHFUL ANGELS OF HEAVEN. AND
THE DECEIVED ANGELS. THE REBELLIOUS ANGELS,
WITH LUCIFER, WERE DEFEATED. THEIR EVIL ACT
BROUGHT RUIN AMONG THE HEAVENLY BODIES.

EARTH WAS IN CHAOS AND BECAME VOID.

ALL CREATED LIVING THINGS AND CREATURES


BECAME EXTINCT. INCLUDING THE PERFECTLY
CREATED DINOSAURS. A PRIMEVAL WORLD OF
INCREDIBLE BEAUTY SURROUNDED THEM.

THEY WERE THE PETS OF THE ANGELS, AND THE


EARTH WAS THEIR PLAYGROUND.

THE EARTH CARETAKER ANGELS GOT BORED. AND


INORDINATELY LOOKED UP TO HEAVEN. LUCIFER,
THEIR LEADER, COMMENCED HIS DECEPTION. TO RISE
UP TO THE NORTH IN THE HEAVENS, WHERE GOD’S
THRONE IS.

128
AND TO TAKE OVER GOD’S THRONE.

THIS WAS TO BE THE FIRST ATTEMPT OF COUP D’ETAT


BY WICKED IMMORTAL BEINGS AGAINST THEIR
DIVINE CREATOR!

IN THAT ANGELIC REBELLION, ALL THE DINOSAURS


PERISHED, AND THE PRIMEVAL WORLD WITH THEM.

ONLY THEIR DISCOVERED FOSSILS PROVIDE EVIDENCE


OF THEIR PREVIOUS EXISTENCE. AND THE GIGANTIC
FLORA AND FAUNA THAT SURROUNDED THEM IN
THEIR DAY.

THE CHAOS IS EVIDENCED BY THE DEFORMED VISIBLE


LAYERS OF ROCK STRATA ALL OVER THE EARTH.

LUCIFER, THE LIGHT BRINGER, BECAME SATAN THE


DEVIL. THE ADVERSARY. AND THE REBELLIOUS ANGELS
BECAME MALIGNANT DEMONS AND WICKED SPIRITS.

THEY WERE CAST DOWN TO THE EARTH, AND THEY


ARE HERE ON EARTH TODAY.
AS
THEY WERE CREATED IMMORTAL SPIRITS, THEY
REMAINED INVISIBLE, AND STAY SO TO THIS DAY. YET
THEY EXIST. WITH IMMENSE POWER. ALLOWED TO
VEX. PROVOKE. INFLUENCE,. AND TEST THE HUMAN
BEINGS, THEY CAN INDIRECTLY BRING DESTRUCTION.
BUT NOT ALLOWED TO KILL THEM DIRECTLY.

129
SATAN THE DEVIL IS CALLED IN THE SCRIPTURES,
PRINCE OF THE POWER OF THE AIR. THE RULER OF
THIS WORLD. THEREBY, THE DEVIL CAN BROADCAST
WICKED IMPULSES INTO HUMAN MINDS.

THESE WICKED SPIRITS HAVE ONE SOLE PURPOSE: TO


DESTROY THE HUMAN RACE.

WHY?

BECAUSE THESE CREATED MORTALS, BORN OF


WOMEN, FLESH AND BLOOD, ARE THE TRUE GOD-
FOREORDAINED HEIRS OF THE EARTH. AND
ULTIMATELY, THE WHOLE CREATED UNIVERSE.

THE CREATED HUMAN BEINGS ARE THE HEIRS OF


SPIRITUAL SALVATION.

THIS GLORIOUS FUTURE IS THE DESTINY OF THE


HUMAN FAMILY. THIS WONDERFUL DESTINY WAS THE
ONE THEY (SATAN THE DEVIL AND THE FALLEN
ANGELS), COVETED, AND WANTED TO BE.

THE ANGELIC SPIRIT BEINGS WERE NOT CREATED FOR


THIS GLORIOUS DESTINY. THEY WERE TO MINISTER
TO THE HEIRS OF SALVATION, (Epistle to the Hebrews 1:14).
Ps. 103:20; Mat. 18:10

THE FALLEN ANGELS REFUSED AND REJECTED THIS


PURPOSE FOR WHICH THE ETERNAL CREATOR GOD
MADE THEM. THEY LEFT THEIR FIRST ESTATE, AND

130
COVETED WHAT WAS NOT FOR THEM, (Epistle of Jude
verse 6).

ALL THESE DIVINE REVELATIONS BELIE AND DISPROVE


THE ‘THEORY OF EVOLUTION” AS A MAN MADE LIE,
YET TODAY, TAKEN AS INCREASINGLY TRUE, AND A
FACT.

BY PRODUCTS OF DEMON PRACTICES

THE ETERNAL GOD FORBIDS CREATED HUMAN BEINGS


TO BELIEVE IN MYTHS AND FABLES.

THE ORIGINAL MAN A PERFECT CREATION

31 “And God saw everything that he had made, and behold, it was
very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day,
(Book of Genesis 1:31). THERE WAS NO HUMAN NATURE
IN THE ORIGNAL CREATED FIRST MAN, ADAM.
131
(“Very good” is an expression of the superlative. Absolute perfection
in every way).

WHERE DID HUMAN NATURE COME FROM?

> HUMAN NATURE commenced, or was born, in the Garden of


Eden:

6 “And when the woman saw that the tree was good
goo d for food, and
that it was pleasant to the eyes,
eyes and a tree to be desired, to make
wise she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat. and gave also
one wise,
unto her husband with her, and he did eat. 1 Tim 2:14

WHEN the first two created human beings partook of the fruit
from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, human nature was
born in mortals. Self-will took over.

Adam, when confronted by the LORD, did not accept the blame.
Vanity and pride already manifested in the tainted character of the
first man. He pointed his finger to Eve. Finger-pointing started
thenceforth. Humility was not in him anymore. Innocence was
gone.

The LORD held the man, Adam, responsible. He was the head, the
leader, of the first family. The stronger vessel, so to speak. And so, it
shall be so, throughout all the generations of the human race. Thru
all the offsprings of mortals, flesh and blood, born of woman.

“Cursed is the ground for thy sake.; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all
the days of thy life. 1 Sam 15:23

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Constant insufficiency shall dog men’s struggles and efforts. It will
be only toil and strength-draining labors.

18 “ Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou
shalt eat the herb of the field; Ps 104:14

19 In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return
unto the ground; for out of it was thou taken: for dust thou art, and
unto dust shalt thou return. (Book of Genesis 3:17-19). 2 Thes 2:10

Constant toil, and hard-scrabble has become the lot of the human
beings since that time till today.

All the talk by politicians and do-gooders about fighting poverty,


man’s stubborn, proud, selfish way, and self-willed multiple
approaches and trial-and-error experiments, is vanity and striving
after wind.

TEACHING MANKIND TO LIVE AND WALK GOD’S WAY


IS THE TRUE SOLUTION!

Follow these that God has commanded, and you and your children
shall live, (Book of Deuteronomy 6:1-25; 7:11-26; 8:1; 9:1).

13 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God and
keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.

14 For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret
thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil,” (Book of

> WHY WERE YOU BORN?

Why did the Lord GOD Almighty bring human life into existence?

26 “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness; and let them
have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air,
and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping
thing that creepeth upon the earth.
27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God
created he him; male and female created he them,” (Book of Genesis
1:26-27).

4 “What is man. that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man,
that thou visitest him?
5 For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast
crowned him with glory and honor.
6 Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands;
thou hast put all things under his feet:
Gen 1:26
7 All sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field;
8 The fowl of the air, and the fish of the seas; and whatsoever
passeth through the paths of the seas.
9 O LORD< our Lord, how excellent is all thy name in all the
earth,” (Book of Psalms 8:4-9).

6 “ But one in a certain place testified, saying, “What is man that


thou art mindful of him, or the son of man, that thou visitest him?
7 Thou madest him a little lower than the angels, thou crownedst
him with glory and honor, and didst set him over the works of thy
hands: 8 Thou hast put all things in subjection under
him, he left nothing that is not put under him. But now we see not
yet all things put under him. (Epistle to the Hebrews 2:6-8).

YOU MUST BE BORN AGAIN

3 “Jesus answered and said unto him, ‘Verily, verily, I say unto thee.
except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
ch. 1:13
4 Nicodemus said unto him, ‘How can a man be born when he is
old? can he enter the second time into his mother’s womb, and be
born?
5 Jesus answered, ‘Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be
born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of
God. Mark 16:16
6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of
the Spirit is spirit.
7 Marvel not that I say unto thee, you must be born again.
8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, and they hearest the sound
thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth; so
is everyone that is born of the Spirit,” (Gospel Book of John 3:3-8).

50 “Now this I say, brethren, flesh and blood can not inherit the
kingdom of God, neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.
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.
Zech. 9:14

50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the

51 Behold I show you a mystery: We shall not all sleep, but we
shall all be changed.
52 In the 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 corruption must put on incorruption, and this mortal
must put on immortality.
54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and
this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to
pass the saying that is written, ‘Death is swallowed up in victory,
57 Thanks be to God which giveth us the vicotory, through our
Lord Jesus Christ,” (First Epistle to the Corinthians 17: 49-57).

> WHEN WILL THIS BE?

23 “But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward
they that are Christ’s at his coming,” (First Epistle to the
Corinthians15:23).
137
16 “For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout,
with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God, and the
dead in Christ shall rise first:
17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together
with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air; and so shall we
ever be with the Lord, (Second Epistle to the Thessalonians 4:16-
17).

WE SHALL BE LIKE HIM

2 “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,” (First Epistle of John 3:2).

21 Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like

He Came To Magnify the Law (Of LOVE) and Make It


Honorable (Book of the prophet Isaiah 42:21)

> He came to make men understand the letter of the codified Law,
that kills, if taken and applied abruptly, strictly, and very literally,
without room for mercy, studied judgment and weighing of the
circumstances and facts. iF not tempered with kindness in its
application. It is black and white, If you sin, zaaaap! zzzath! comes
the retribution and punishment.

Cut off the fingers! Cut off the hands!

139
READ THE HEART. READ THE ATTITUDE.
READ THE MOTIVE.

> Christ taught balance. Emotional maturity. Poise. Calm.


Serenity of spirit. Peace.

Carnal, rebellious, despiteful, proud men hate the Law of Love.


They profess to love God, yet at the same time, with their
tongue, their lips, from their thoughts and in the core of their
hearts and minds, deny His holy, and perfect Law of Love.
They denounce it as legalistic. Heavy burden. A ball and chain.
A prison. The restrictions ‘DO NOT’s, are impositions of an
unjust God. ALL THESE , THEY JEER!

That the Law is done away by the sacrifice and death of Christ at
Calvary. That Christ has nailed the holy Ten Commandments
of true righteousness to the cross.

LISTEN TO WHAT THE CREATOR OF MANKIND AND


ALL THE WORLDS DECLARED WHEN HE WAS IN THE
FLESH, AMONG FLESH AND BLOOD HUMN BEINGS:

The LAW Remains Forever:

17 “Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the


prophets: I am not come to destroy , but to fulfill.
Rom. 10:4

18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot
or one title shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.
Luke 16:17

140
19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least
commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the
least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and
teach them, shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
20 For I say unto you, that except your righteousness shall
exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in
no case enter into the kingdom of heaven,” (Gospel Books of
Matthew 17-20; Luke 16:17).

THE LAW AND THE TEN COMMANDMENTS


ARE HOLY

119:172 “MY TONGUE SHALL SPEAK OF THY WORD;


FOR ALL THY COMMANDMENTS ARE
RIGTEOUSNESS, (Book of Psalms119: 172).

11 For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me,


and by it slew me.

just, and good,” (Epistle to the Romans 7: 11-12).

Hebrews 11 CHAPTER OF LIVING FAITH


1
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of
things not seen.
2
For by it the elders obtained a good report.

3
Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the
word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things
which do appear.

4
By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than
Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God
testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh.

148
5
By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and
was not found, because God had translated him: for before his
translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.

6
But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh
to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them
that diligently seek him.

7
By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet,
moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the
which he condemned the world, and became heir of the
righteousness which is by faith.

8
By faith Abraham,
Abraham when he was called to go out into a place which
he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out,
not knowing whither he went.

9
By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange
country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with
him of the same promise:

10
For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder
and maker is God.

11
Through faith also Sara herself received strength to conceive seed,
and was delivered of a child when she was past age, because she
judged him faithful who had promised.

12
Therefore sprang there even of one, and him as good as dead, so
many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as the sand which is
by the sea shore innumerable.

149
13
These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but
having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and
embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims
on the earth.

14
For they that say such things declare plainly that they seek a
country.

15
And truly, if they had been mindful of that country from whence
they came out, they might have had opportunity to have returned.

16
But now they desire a better country, that is, an heavenly:
wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God: for he hath
prepared for them a city.

17
By faith Abraham,
Abraham when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he
that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son,
18
Of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called:
19
Accounting that God was able to raise him up, even from the
dead; from whence also he received him in a figure.
20
By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning things to come.

21
By faith Jacob, when he was a dying, blessed both the sons of
Joseph;
Joseph and worshipped, leaning upon the top of his staff.

22
By faith Joseph, when he died, made mention of the departing of
the children of Israel; and gave commandment concerning his
bones.

150
23
By faith Moses, when he was born, was hid three months of his
parents, because they saw he was a proper child; and they were not
afraid of the king's commandment.

24
By faith Moses,
Moses when he was come to years, refused to be called
the son of Pharaoh's daughter;

25
Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than
to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season;

26
Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures
in Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompence of the reward.

27
By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for
he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.
28
Through faith he kept the passover, and the sprinkling of blood,
lest he that destroyed the firstborn should touch them.
29
By faith they passed through the Red sea as by dry land: which the
Egyptians assaying to do were drowned.

30
By faith the walls of Jericho fell down, after they were compassed
about seven days.

31
By faith the harlot Rahab perished not with them that believed
not, when she had received the spies with peace.

32
And what shall I more say? for the time would fail me to tell of
Gedeon,
Gedeon and of Barak, and of Samson, and of Jephthae; of David
also, and Samuel,
Samuel and of the prophets:

151
33
Who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness,
obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions.

34
Quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out
of weakness were made strong, waxed valiant in fight, turned to
flight the armies of the aliens.

35
Women received their dead raised to life again: and others were
tortured, not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better
resurrection:

36
And others had trial of cruel mockings and scourgings, yea,
moreover of bonds and imprisonment:

37
They were stoned, they were sawn asunder, were tempted, were
slain with the sword: they wandered about in sheepskins and
goatskins; being destitute, afflicted, tormented;

38
(Of whom the world was not worthy:) they wandered in deserts,
and in mountains, and in dens and caves of the earth.
39
And these all, having obtained a good report through faith,
received not the promise:
40
God
Go having provided some better thing for us, that they without
us should not be made perfect.

THE TWELVE APOSTLES WERE SUCH MEN

40 And to him (Gamaliel) they agreed: and when they had called
the apostles, and beaten them, they commanded that they should
not speak in the name of Jesus, and they let them go.
41 And they departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing
that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for his name,
4 And daily in the temple, and in every house, they ceased not to
teach and preach Jesus Christ,” (Book of Acts 5:40-42)

Stephen of the earliest New Testament Church of God, in the very


time of the twelve apostles, was one of them:
8 “And Stephen, full of faith and power, did great wonders and
miracles among the people,” (Book of Acts 6:8).
Chapter 7, from verses 2 through 60, Stephen boldly proclaimed
the true story of the people of Israel, and how he told the ruling
leaders of the religion of the Jews that their fathers received the law
by disposition of angels, AND HAVE NOT KEPT IT. That their
fathers rejected the prophets who proclaimed the coming of the Just
One (THE TRUE MESSIAH, THE LORD JESUS CHRIST), and
they betrayed and murdered those prophets. For that unvarnished
truth and fact in the history of the God-chosen nation of Israel
recapitulated in all boldness and fearlessness, without equivocation,

DEATH,

55 “But he, being full of the Holy Spirit, looked up stedfastly into

the son of man standing on the right hand of God.
59 And they stoned Stephen, calling upon God, and saying, ‘Lord
Jesus, receive my spirit. ch.9:14; Ps. 31:5; Luke 23:46

60 And he kneeled down, and crIed with a loud voice. ‘Lord, lay
not this sin to their charge. And when he had said this, he fell
asleep,’ (Book of Acts 6:8; 7:1-60).

THEY CONFESSED THE LORD BEFORE MEN

“Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I also


confess before my Father which is in heaven,” (Gospel Book of
Matthew 10:32).

SO IT IS WRITTEN. THE CHURCH OF GOD SO


BELIEVE.

Mystery of the LIVING GOD – Part 1

Chapter Seven

THE HOLY BIBLE


4 “But he answered and said, It is written, “Man shall not
live by bread alone, but by every word that comes out of
the mouth of God.” (Gospel Books of Luke 4:4 ; Matthew
4:4).

THE ETERNAL CREATOR GOD made man, He placed him on


the earth.
He breathed into his nostrils, the breath of life, and he became a
living soul. He gave life to the created man. He granted him a space
of time in which to live his days. From birth, all the way to the
grave.

3 “KNOW ye that the LORD he is God: it is he that made us, and


not we ourselves: we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture,”
(Book of Psalms 100:2-3; 119:73).

That man is to live his life. He is to live out his life. His existence.
His very and every organic constitution of his being bespeaks bare
ignorance at his beginnings. Quite unlike other created creatures,
particularly the animal kind who live by instinct built-in to them,
155
mankind was made to learn how to live, using his mind, and free
will.

This was so at every man’s beginnings. It remains so for every


mortal, flesh and blood, born of woman, today.

There has to be A WAY OF LIFE he must go by.

Every man is born carnal. He commences his every day life by living
by a set of rules. And disciplined personal order. Man is not an
animal that lives by instincts and automatic way of doing things.

Man was made a human being of free will. He was made to make
decisions. Whether for ill, or for good.
Whether right, or wrong. CHARACTER is the fruit of that way of
living.
Mortal man, born of woman, flesh and blood, would need a guide
how to live. A manual how to operate the body and mind.

HE DID NOT CREATE MAN TO DWELL AND INHABIT


THE EARTH IN ANARCHY.

LOOK AT MAN TODAY TODAY.

MAN HAS IGNORED., WHOLESALE ALMOST, THE


DIVINE ROAD MAP, HE PROUDLY DESIGNED HIS OWN.
AND NOTHING WORKS,

THEIR BOTTOMLINE AT THE END OF THE DAY: ALL IS


BUT ONE BIG LIE. AS MAN DESIGNS MORE AND
OTHERS. THEN JUNKS IT, AND DEVISES ANOTHER. BY

156
CONTINUED TRIAL AND ERROR. THE MESS IS GETTING
WORSE.

TO THOSE WHO LIVE BY MAN’S SELF-


THOUGHT, AND SELF-TAUGHT, WISDOM

The vast majority of mankind live by the recorded wisdom of their


ancients and their sages. They go by the traditions that have taken
root and grew in their native around. This has been the way
practiced by all the families and tribes, that became countries, and
nations through all the centuries. Through, as way far back in the
earliest antiquities.

All of these became their philosophy of life, individual, or national.

A philosophy of life drawn by each and every tribe, family, or a


people, a nation, or the country’s wise men sages, teachers of man,
leading lights. Most of it set down after a process of time of
thinking. Observation. Or a moment of enlightenment.

The world is full of it. It is mankind’s treasured legacies from their


elders and forefathers.

Each one, however bright and enlightened, good and noble, it


seems, is a product of a mind, or minds, laden with both truth and
error. Of the knowledge of good and evil. Passed on all the way
from the Garden of Eden, when the first parents of humanity, Adam
and Eve, partook of the Tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

All of these were products of the knowledge of truth and error. The
millennial admixture in human knowledge and learning.

157
THE NET RESULT IS WHAT IS WITNESSED AROUND
TODAY, IN THE VERY 21ST CENTURY!

“There is a way that seemeth right to a man, but the end thereof are
the ways of death,” (Book of Proverbs 14:12; 16:25)
Rom. 6:21

THE REVEALED DIVINE ROAD MAP


FOR EVERY MAN AND WOMAN
ON A SPIRITUAL JOURNEY TO GOD

THE MOST HIGH GOD REVEALED HOW THESE


MORTALS OUGHT TO CONDUCT THEIR LIVES. HOW
TO MANAGE THEIR AFFAIRS. AND HOW, TO LIVE
EXACTLY, AND WELL, IN PERFECT BALANCE.

GOD CAUSED THE DESIGN OF THE PERFECT AND FULL


GUIDE, AS TO A ROAD MAP, HOW TO GO ABOUT, TO
REACH THEIR SMALLER SUB-GOALS, AND THE FINAL
ONE GOAL, IN THIS SACRED GOLDEN SCROLL IT IS
REVEALED.

THEY ARE WRITTEN AND SECURELY CONTAINED IN


PERFECT ORDER IN THE BOOK CALLED THE HOLY
BIBLE. THE HOLY SCRIPTURES.

ALL SIXTY SIX BOOKS. THIRTY NINE IN THE OLD


TESTAMENT AND COVENANT. TWENTY SEVEN IN THE
NEW TESTAMENT.
THE FIRST THIRTY NINE BOOKS WERE ORIGINALLY
WRITTEN IN HEBREW.

158
THE NEXT TWENTY SEVEN WERE WRITTEN IN GREEK.

NOW THEY WERE, AND ARE, TRANSLATED IN THE


ENGLISH LANGUAGE. AND IN SEVERAL OTHER MAJOR
LANGUAGES, AND DIALECTS, WORLDWIDE.

HE CAUSED IT TO BE WRITTEN BY INSPIRATION THRU


THE HOLY SPIRIT.

NOTE: THE EARLIEST FIRST CENTURY DISCIPLES AND


FOLLOWERS OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST DID NOT
HAVE THE NEW TESTMAMENT SCRIPTURES, AS THEY
ARE SEALED TODAY.
THEY ONLY HAD THE OLD TESTAMENT ESCRIPTURES.

THEREBY, THE MODERN 21ST CENTURY DISCIPLES AND


FOLLOWERS, BELIEVERS AND PRACTITIONERS OF THE
FAITH ONCE DELIVERED TO THE SAINTS, ARE BLESSED
WITH THE SIXTY SIX BOOKS OF THE BIBLE TODAY.
THIS FULFILLS WHAT THE PROPHET ISAIAH WAS MADE
TO WRITE FOR TODAY:

“BIND UP THE TESTIMONY. SEAL THE LAW AMONG MY


DISCPLES.” (Book of the prophet Isaiah 8:16).

GOD-BREATHED HOLY SCRIPTURES

2 “I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for
thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy
word above all thy name,” (Book of Psalms 138:2). Ps. 28:2; Ps.
5:7

159
>> “Bind up the testimony. Seal the law among my disciples,”
(Book of the prophet Isaiah 8:18).

>> “To the law and to the testimony. If they speak not according
to this word, it is because there is no light in them,” (Book of the
prophet Isaiah 8:20)

>> “Now all these things happened unto them for examples: they
are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world
are come,” (First Epistle to the Corinthians 10:11). Rom. 15:4; Phil
4;5; Heb. 10:25

>> “For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for
our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures
might have hope,” (Epistle to the Romans 15:4).

>> “And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures,
which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which
is in Christ Jesus.
16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God,
and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for
instruction in righteousness.
17 That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto
all good works,” (Second Epistle to Timothy 3:15-17).

20 “Knowing this first that no prophecy of the scripture is of any


private interpretation:
21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but
holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Spirit,”
(Second Epistle of Peter 1:20-21).

>> They were written for our guide to salvation and everlasting life.
160
MAN IS COMMANDED TO SEARCH THEM

Gospel Book of John 5:39

“Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life; and
they are they which testify of me.”

Book of the prophet Isaiah 8:20


“To the law and to the testimony”: if they speak not according to
this word, it is because there is no light in them.”

> They are commended to search and study them, (Book of Acts
17:11; 8:28, 29).
“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 these things were so.
Is. 34:16; Luke 16:29; John 5:39

> They are reproved that were unskillful in them, or slow to believe
them, (They can make you wise unto salvation, (Second Epistle to
Timothy 3:15).

> If they be ignorant, simple, and unlearned, they can instruct


them, (Books of Psalms 19:7; Proverbs 21:11)

> If out of the narrow and strait way, lost to the broad way to the
left, and lost to broad way to the right, they will bring you home to
the center, towards GOD THE FATHER, thru the Lord Jesus
Christ, THE WAY, THE TRUTH, AND THE LIFE. With the
spiritual power of the Holy Spirit,

161
6 Jesus saith unto him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life: no
man cometh >>>> unto the Father, >>>> but by me,” (Gospel Book
of John 14:6).

> If one’s life is out of order, made helter skelter and confused,
and dysfunctional, they will reform and reorder you, and bring order
to your disordered, dysfunctional life.
“Whoso offereth praise glorifieth me: and to him that ordereth his
conversation (CONDUCT, BEHAVIOR, ATTITUDE) his way
aright, to him will I show the salvation of God.” Ps. 27:6; Gal.
6:16

> If in heaviness and depression, they will comfort you, and lift you
up anew, (Book of the Lamentations 3:41).

> If dull and deadened, they will quicken and renew you.

> If chilled and cold, they will inflame you. Set you on fire again.

> If jaded and stale, they will refresh your hearts and minds.

> If shaken, disappointed, they will edify you and bring renewed
inspiration and driving motivation upon you,

FOR THEY ARE SPIRIT. AND THEY ARE LIFE: 63 “It is the
spirit that quickeneth: the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I
speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life,” (Gospel Book of
John 6:63).

THE MYSTERY AND MIRACLE OF EVERY WORD


OF GOD SET IN THE HOLY BIBLE
162
Each word and phrase in the Sacred Scriptures are truly divine
seeds of the Holy Spirit, and of Life.

When read carefully and studiously, studied, meditated upon,


prayed about, each word seed seemingly. albeit literally, blossoms,
sprouts, and expands. And when linked with all the other word seeds
in the Holy Bible, by the Holy Spirit, wondrous things come out
and are seen, and understood, by the mind’s eye.

This is true enlightenment approved, and revealed, by the Great


God.

For these word seeds of spirit and of life are God-breathed.

These moments of enlightenment radiate the fruit of the Spirit, and


races throughout the entire being of the enlightened one. His whole
life and being is enveloped in the Light from God, and filled with
the outpouring of the supply of the Holy Spirit, the power of the
Highest, that he may be a worthy and holy instrument in the hands
of God.

To serve the God of Heaven. To proclaim His Name. And make


known God’s Great Works to the nations. March 24,2010 in HK

THE FOUR W’S:


GOD’S HOLY WORD. GOD’S SACRED WAY.
GOD’S DIVINE WILL. GOD’S PERFECT
WORK

163
A man who has set his mind and heart to go, to embark, march
onward, to carry on his IRREVERSIBLE, IRREVOCABLE,
spiritual journey into GOD, THRU, BY, WITH WHICH, and
WHEREIN, HE WILL BE ENTWINED in all these
dimensions of being. HE WILL TRULY KNOW THE
WIDTH. THE HEIGHT. THE BREADTH. THE DEPTH,
IN THE FULNESS, AND KNOWLEDGE, OF GOD, AND
OF THE LOVE OF CHRIST.

HE WILL BE MADE TO KNOW HIS INNER SELF, AS


WELL AS HIS INNER MIND. AND ULTIMATELY, HIS
MIND’S EYE WILL BE FULLY OPENED TO THE GLORY
AND POWERS OF THE WORLDS OF BEING, NOW IN
THIS TIME, AND OF THE WORLDS TO COME.

THE SPIRIT OF GOD WILL QUICKEN HIM. AND HE


WILL HAVE PEACE THAT PASSES ALL
UNDERSTANDING, (Epistle to the Ephesians 3:18-21).

ALL THESE COME FROM THE HOLY BIBLE. BETWEEN


ITS TWO COVERS ARE THE REVEALED TRUTHS OF
GOD THAT COVER THE ENTIRE GAMUT AND SCOPE
OF LIFE AND LIVING ON THIS PLANET RTH, IN THE
WORLD OF MAN.

THAT THEY MAY HAVE


LIFE ABUNDANTLY
“…I AM come that they might have life and that they
may have it more abundantly, 11 I AM the good
shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for his
sheep.” (Gospel Book of John 10:10b, 11).

THE RIGHT BLESSINGS:


REFINEMENTS OF CULTURE
THE BLESSINGS OF CIVILIZATION

It is called the best of both worlds.

You have heard it. And heard it often. “God loves the poor.” In
other words, He delights that there are so many poor, and He, the
God of Providence, who owns all the gold and silver, all the cattle of
a thousand hills, dearly loves the poor.

In other words, God the Maker and Provider of all things good and
wonderful, “so dearly loves the poor in their mire and muck and
165
poverty. In their confused existence” THIS IS THEIR IDEA. THE
MANTRA OF, AND FOR, THE POOR IN MEN’S MINDS.

This absurd self-defeating concept of the Eternal God makes of the


God of all Providence and Abundance a scrooge. A miserable miser.

CAN YOU SEE THAT THIS IS MOST ABSURD AND SILLY


TO THINK ABOUT THE DIVINE PROVIDENCE AND
BLESSINGS OF THE GREAT GOD?

One of the principal reasons why Christ came, was to bring life to
mankind, and that they may have it more abundantly.

He would lay down the very way and principles by which, if they
abide in them, they would have the true abundant life, NOW IN
THIS TIME.

To the blessed ones that did heed, listened, and did live accordingly,
the Lord Jesus Christ pronounced:

28 “Then Peter began to say unto him, ‘Lo we have left all, and
have followed thee.
29 And Jesus answered and said, ‘Verily I say unto you, There is
no man that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or
mother, or children, or lands, for my sake, and the gospel’s.
30 But he shall receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses,
and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands,
with persecutions; and in the world to come eternal life,”
(Gospel Books of Mark 10:28-30; Matthew19:27-29; Luke
18:28-30). 2 Chr 25:9

> MAN LIVE IN EXTREMES


166
> LIVE IN, and via, THE MIDDLE OF BALANCE and
MODERATION

> BELIEF AND PRACTICE. BELIEF BASED ON THE


KNOWLEDGE OF THE TRUTH. WORDS WITH
ZEALOUS DEEDS. THOUGHT AND ACTION.

2 “For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not
according to knowledge.
Acts 21:20; 22:3; ch. 9:31; Gal. 1:14
3 For they being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and going
about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted
themselves to the righteousness of God,” (Epistle to the Romans
10:2-3).

FOR “GOD IS A SPIRIT AND THEY THAT WORSHIP


HIM MUST WORSHIP HIM IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH,’
(Gospel Book of John 3:24).

FAITH ONCE DELIVERED


TO THE SAINTS
3 “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 to the
saints,” (Epistle of Jude verse 3).

Christ Himself Delivered the Tenets of the Faith and


the Gospel of the Kingdom Before He Ascended to
Heaven

2 “Until the day in which he was taken up, after that the Holy
Spirit had given commandments unto the apostles whom he had
chosen: Mark 16:19; 1 Tim 3:16
3 To whom also he showed himself alive after his passion by
many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and
speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God:
Mark 16:14

8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Spirit is come
upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto both in Jerusalem, and
169
in Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the
earth,” (Book of Acts 1:2. 3, 8).

3 “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 once
delivered to the saints,” (Epistle of Jude verse 3).

THIS FAITH REVOLVES AROUND THE


KINGDOM OF GOD.

> Of being born again into the Kingdom.

> Of this literal spiritual rebirth from mortality to immortality as


the goal into which every true believer and practitioner of the faith
must ceaselessly aspire.

> From terrestrial to celestial is God’s Divine design for every


human being ever born, and ever died. And will live again.

> From earthy, to heavenly, is God’s dream for the family of man.

> From the dust to which man will return in death, to the
resurrection of eternal life, is God’s Divine Vision when man was
first made “in the image, and likeness of God,” of ELOHIYM.

> That these called out, chosen, and elected Spirit-begotten


members of the Church of the Living God will serve Him, and
endure to the end. Doing their appointed tasks, in their job, in their
true profession, in the Proclamation of the Gospel, the Good News,

170
of the Kingdom of God, to all nations, in all the world, to every
creature.

That all these, God created for His Praise. For His Honor. And for
His Glory. FOR HE IS GOD!

WHAT SORT OF MEN AND WOMEN ARE


CALLED OUT OF THIS WORLD TO BECOME
PART OF THE FAITH ONCE DELIVERED?

25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men: and the


weakness of God is stronger than men. 26 “For you see your
calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not
many mighty, not many noble are called:
John7:48
27 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound
the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to
confound the things which are mighty;
28 And base things of the world, and things which are despised,
hath God chosen, yea, and things which are, to bring to nought all
things that are: Rom. 4:17; ch. 2:6
29 That no flesh should glory in his presence. Rom. 3:27
30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto
wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:
ver. 24
31 That according as it is written, ‘He that glorieth, let him glory in
the Lord,’ (First Epistle to the Corinthians 1: 25-31).

JESUS WENT ABOUT AND LOOKED FOR HIS


FIRST TWELVE DISCIPLES, APPOINTED THEM

171
TO BECOME FISHERS OF MEN, AND LATER
MADE THEM HIS TWELVE APOSTLES

> Fisherman - Simon Peter


> his brother, Andrew
> James, son of Zebedee
> his brother, John
both working with their father in his ship.
mending their nets.
(Gospel Book of Mathhew 4:4:18-21).
> John, the brother of James
> Andrew, and Philip,
> Bartholomew
> Matthew, was a tax collector.
> Thomas
> James, of Alphaeus
> Libbaeus Thaddaeus, called Jude.
> Simon, the Canaanite
> Judas Iscariot (who betrayed Christ), with skills in money
transactions, (Gospel Book of Mark 4:14-19).

Many of the twelve disciples were fishermen.

Jesus himself, was a carpenter. Carpentry being the occupation of


Joseph, a respected master carpenter, the husband of Mary, his
mother.

> Paul, formerly called Saul, was a Pharisee, He indicated he learned


and practiced as a tentmaker to earn a living, while in his labors for
the Gospel, (Book of Acts 18:1-3).

172
SO IN THE FIRST CENTURY CHURCH OF GOD AMONG
THE MANY THAT WERE CONVERTED TO THE FAITH,
WERE MEN AND WOMEN THAT WERE VERY COMMON,
AND VERY ORDINARY, AS THE WORLD MEASURES
THEM.

THERE WERE BUT A FEW OF NOBLE BIRTH, HIGH


RANK, OR STATUS. JOSEPH OF ARIMATHEA IS ONE
SUCH A VERY FEW. IT IS KNOWN HE WAS A TIN
MERCHANT.

READ THEIR STORY:

Of the multitude of the people which heard the word proclaimed by


the apostles that became believers. There were five thousand of
them, (Book of Acts 4:1-21).

More believers were added, multitudes both of men and women,”


and a multitude came out also out of the cities roundabout unto
Jerusalem. They brought their sick and afflicted, The apostles laid
their hands on them, and they were healed, every one, (Book of
Acts5:12-16; 6:1).

7 “And the word of God increased; and the number of disciples


multiplied in Jerusalem greatly; and a great company of the priests
were obedient to the faith. ch. 12:24; Isa. 55:11
8 And Stephen, full of faith and power, did great wonders and
miracles among the people, (Book of Acts 6:7-10).

44 And the next Sabbath day came almost the whole city together
to hear the word of God, (Book of Acts 13:44-45, 48-49).

173
> They came from all walks of life. They were working in all types
and kinds of trades. Avocations, And occupations.
A number practiced in the disciplines, and in the recognized
professions, in those days.

They were in the employ of business, and in the civil, and military,
governments, of that time.

A number were slaves, or servants, in private households of wealthy


families, or powerful men of high rank, or in office, or in private
business.

Onesimus was once a slave of his master Philemon, before he


became a Christian, (Epistle to Philemon vs. 1-25).

THE SAME IS TRUE THROUGHOUT THE LAST TWENTY


CENTURIES OF THE CHURCH OF THE LIVING GOD,
EVEN AS THEIR STORY WAS HIDDEN, AND IGNORED,
BY HISTORIANS. FOR THEY WERE NEVER PART OF THIS
WORLD, EVEN AS THEY WERE, AND ARE, IN THE
WORLD, (Gospel Book of John 17:14-16).

IN THE WORLD OF TODAY, AS IT IS STRUCTURED, THE


HUMAN ACTIVITIES REVOLVE AROUND:

1. IDEAS – The conceptualization of ideas. The writing of them.


Printing of them In books, Scrolls, Magazines, Newsletters.
Booklets. Other publications. The discussion of them In broadcast
media. In forums. Conferences. In classrooms. In schools. The
spreading and dissemination of them. Everyone who engages in
them is entitled to compensation, remuneration, commission, salary,

174
or fee. They are paid in forms of money, or goods with equivalent
money value.

2. SERVICES –The rendering of them, in all types and kinds. Using


knowledge and information. By both unskilled, semi-skilled, and
skilled practitioners. Involving all the activities for earning a living to
insure self-sufficiency, and security from want and lack.

3. PRODUCTS. – The design. Fabrication. Manufacture. And


promotions and marketing, of these products for the use, and
consumption, of men. The profit or income earned from them
could be very satisfactory. Sufficient. Substantial. Or large.

The members of the Church of God, all over the world, in both the
western and eastern hemisphere were called out by God the Father
from all these spheres of human activity. Hence, they are engaged in
gainful occupations. Trades. Vocations. Avocations, Crafts.
Professions. Employment. Businesses, as small, or medium scale,
entrepreneurs and proprietors. Any other legitimate and profitable
activities to earn their living.

The job description and titles to these activities are multitude.


Modern 21st century civilization and technologies, scientific,
computers, and digital, information has generated and created jobs.
Trade and commerce offer many positions of gainful employment.
Food production in all its variegated disciplines opened many job
opportunities, whether they be skilled, or semi-skilled.

In the field of Education, they can be found as teachers. All of these,


as well as yet many unspecified others, the brethren of the church of
the Living God are at work, today.

175
Organized promotions and marketing of the products for
consumption, and housing, find them engaged as sales people,
agents, or consultants, either in the field, or in the office doing
executive and managerial tasks, and as independent contractors.

Housing has opened gainful work as architects, builders, carpenters,


garden designing, and interior designing. All these has made
income-earning work, jobs, or profitable interaction with serious,
busy people in the business of life and living, available and possible.

They are enjoined to be quiet and be busy, diligent, and honest, law-
abiding, in their dealings and interaction with the peoples of the
world, with their fellowmen. They are enjoined to love their jobs
and enjoy their work.

The brotherhood, of the household of God, in dedicated labors of


serving and doing in the midst of the world. In so doing, they fulfill
the teaching and will of the Lord Jesus Christ, the Saviour, to
become the salt of the earth, and the light of the world.

“I EXHORT therefore, that first of all, supplications, prayers,


intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;
2 For kings, and for all that are in authority: that we may lead a
quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.
3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;
Rom. 12:2; 2 Tim 1:9
4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to know and to come to
the knowledge of the truth,” (First Epistle to Timothy 2:1-4).

Yes, everywhere in the world, they could be found: >>>>

176
They are Accountants. Janitors. Care givers. Teachers, in all levels.
Farmers, Gardeners, Orchardists. Secretaries. Nurses. Clerks.
Salesmen. Traders. Merchants. Consultants. Insurance and real
estate agents. Truck and taxi drivers. Managers. Executives, Bankers.
Lawyers. Laboratory technicians. Postal workers. Physicians.
Scientists. Computer analysts. Computer programmers. Telephone
operators. Foresters. Waiters. Chambermaids. Factory workers. Care
givers. Barbers. Beauticians. Masseurs. Construction workers.
Architects. Interior designers. Delivery man.

And, yes, tax revenue collectors like Matthew, the disciple of Jesus.
And fishermen, like Simon and Peter, like his brother Andrew, and
the other fishermen with him that were first called by Jesus, the
Christ of God.

more excellent way,” (First Epistle to the Corinthians 12:1-31).

LOVE IS THE MORE EXCELLENT WAY, (First Epistle to the


Corinthians 13:1-13)..

11 And he gave some, apostles; and some prophets;


and some evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;

12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for
the edifying of the body of Christ: 1 Cor 12:7
13 Till we all come to the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge
of the son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the
stature of the fullness of Christ.
14 That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and
carried with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and
cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive. Is. 28:9; ch.
1:22
15 But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all
things, which is the head, even Christ: 2 Cor. 4:2; Heb. 3:9
16 From whom the whole body fitly joined together and
compacted by that which every joint supplieth according to the
effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of
the body unto the edifying of itself in love,” (Epistle to the
Ephesians 4:11-16).

SO IT IS WRITTEN. THE CHURCH OF THE LIVING


GOD SO BELIEVE.

180
LIKE THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOOD AND EVIL, THE
GOOD NEWS CAME FIRST, AHEAD OF THE BAD

THERE WILL BE TRIALS,


PERSECUTIONS, AND TRIBULATIONS

It is not a bed of roses.


Fiery trials ahead.
Persecution afoot.
Tribulation at the corner of the road. >>>>

“Remember the word that I said unto you. The servant is not greater
than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute
you; ...” (Gospel Book of 15:20a).

33 “These things have I spoken unto you, that in me ye might have


peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer: I
have overcome the world,” (Gospel Book of John 16:33).

“Confirming the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them to
continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation

13 “There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to


man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted

way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it,” (First Epistle to the
Corinthians 10:13).

praise and honor and glory at the appearing of the Lord Jesus
Christ,” (First Epistle of Peter 1:7).

THE ROLE OF ANGELS ON


THE CHURCH OF GOD
14 “Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to
minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?,” (Epistle
to the Hebrews1:14). Ps. 103:2; Mat. 18:1;
Mat. 18:10

THE ANGELS OF HEAVEN


THE HEAVENLY HOSTS

MINISTERING ANGELS TO THE HEIRS OF


SALVATION

ANGELS OF LIGHT

Mankind throughout the ages had it written in their chronicles


of their direct experiences with invisible beings that ministered
help to those in times of most crucial need.

183
Little babies were kept alive in the rubble of landslides. Crushed
buildings laid low by massive earthquakes, or ruined by
devastating floods. Little children survived airplane crashes.

These are amazing proofs of invisible angels responsible to rescue


these helpless babies and children. God be praised! For He sent
those angels of heaven to do these astonishing acts of mercy and
deliverance for God’s jewels in His creation.

THE ANGELS ARE GUARDIAN ANGELS OF MORTALS,


FLESH AND BLOOD, BORN OF WOMEN

They are under instructions to watch over the entire human


family, lest they prematurely extinguish, self-destruct, and
eliminate themselves. Unbeknownst to these proud flesh and
blood mortals, the angels of heaven are there on God’s
instructions, to prevent irreversible human destruction by self-
willed, crazed leaders of peoples and nations.

They are invisible and strong spirits. They only show themselves
briefly, if necessary, under very necessary circumstances. With
their mission done, they again disappear.

Accounts in the Scriptures show that they appear when events


are in the extreme and fatal for mortals. The background helper
who dare appear as human beings. They do the necessary. And
then go…..

THE ANGELS APPEARED IN THE NEW TESTAMENT


ACCOUNTS.

184
> An angel, the archangel Gabriel, appeared to Zecharias to
announce to him the conception in Elizabeth, his wife, and
coming birth of his son, the prophet John the Baptist, who will
be the voice in the wilderness to pave the way, and proclaim the
birth and coming of Jesus, the Son of man, and son of God, in
the flesh, who will be called Emmanuel (God with us), (Gospel
Book of Luke 1:11-19; 76-80).

> The archangel Gabriel was sent from God anew, six months later,
unto the city of Galilee, named Nazareth, to a virgin named Mary,
To announce to her that she will conceive in her womb, and bring
forth a son, and the child’s name will be called ‘JESUS’. The child
will grow up to be great, and shall be called the Son of the highest.
She was told that the Holy Spirit, the power of the Highest, shall
come upon her. That the Holy Spirit will overshadow her. And Jesus
shall be born of her, who shall be called the Son of God,

> The angel of the Lord came upon the shepherds abiding in the
field, keeping watch over their flock by night. The angel announced
to them”
10 “Fear not: for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy,
which shall be, to all people, 11 For unto you is born this day in the
city of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord.” (Gospel Book of
Luke 2:8-11), Gen. 12;3; Mat. 28:19; Mark 1:15

> In that same historic time,:


13 “And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the
heavenly host praising God, and saying, Gen. 26:12
14 “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, goodwill
toward men. ch. 28:12
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
185
unto Bethlehem, and see this 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,” (Gospel Book of Luke 2:8-16).
> Angels came to minister to Jesus after his victorious spiritual
battle, right after he had fasted forty days and forty nights, against
Satan the devil, (Gospel Book of Matthew 4:1-10, 11).

> An angel from heaven appeared to strengthen Jesus in his


moment of agonizing prayer, knowing He was going to face
suffering and death for the sins, and the redemption of all mankind,
(Gospel Book of Luke 22:43).

> The angel of the Lord opened the unlocked prison doors to let
the imprisoned apostle Peter out, (Book of Acts 12: 1-6, 7, 9-11).

> The angel of God was there to save the apostle Paul in the
tempest-tossed ship in the stormy ocean near the island of Crete,
(Book of Acts 27:23)._

> The angel showed in vision the final, last end time events, and
city of God to the beloved apostle John, in exile, in the island of
Patmos, (Book of Revelation 22: 1-8).

ALL THESE ACCOUNTS DEMONSTRATE AND CLEARLY


SHOW TO THE CHURCH OF THE LIVING GOD, EVEN
TO THE REST OF THE WORLD, THAT ANGELS ARE
MINISTERING SPIRITS, SERVANTS OF THE GOD OF
HEAVEN. THEY ARE HIS MESSENGERS SENT FROM TIME
TO TIME TO PERFORM AND FULFILL A SPECIFIC
IMPORTANT MISSION, OR TASK. TO DELIVER A
MESSAGE FR0M THE LORD GOD MOST HIGH. AND IN
186
OTHER TIMES TO ASSIST AND HELP. THEN, AFTER
EACH MISSION DONE, THEY DISAPPEAR. AND RETURN
TO HEAVEN, AND REPORT BACK TO GOD.

> IN SODOM AND GOMORRAH, TWO ANGELS


APPEARED TO LOT, IN HUMAN FORM, TO SAVE LOT
AND HIS FAMILY, BEFORE THEY WERE TO DESTROY
THE SINFILLED TWIN CITIES WITH FIRE AND
BRIMSTONE, AND THIS THEY DID. (Book of Genesis).

THEY ARE NOT TO BE COMMUNICATED TO, AS THE


ATTEMPTS ARE BEING MADE BY SOME. NOT TO BE
PRAYED TO. NOT TO BE WORSHIPPED. WORSHIP OF
ANGELS IS ABSOLUTELY FORBIDDEN BY THE LORD
GOD ALMIGHTY.

SO IT IS WRITTEN. THE CHURCH OF THE LIVING


GOD SO BELIEVE.

HOW DID THIS HAPPEN?

LUCIFER, THE FORMER LIGHTBRINGER AND THE


FALLEN ANGELS TURNED INTO SATAN THE DEVIL
AND MALIGNANT DEMONS AND WICKED SPIRITS

ALIENS IN YOUR MIDST

Are there aliens among human beings?

What about the UFOs?


187
Are they the “watchers” from a far away planet with big round eyes
and strange looking bodies as the Hollywood 3D movies on big
screen, celluloid, DVDs, and illustrators, and painters, depict
them?

What about the claimed sightings? Of UFOs flying at incredible


speeds with strange lights, as testified to by increasing numbers?
Including photographs taken by their cellphone cameras?

NEVER DABBLE OR TRAFFIC WITH MALIGNANT


DEMONS AND EVIL, WICKED SPIRITS.

NEVER, NEVER, EVER TRAFFIC OR DABBLE WITH


MALIGNANT DEMONS, EVIL WICKED SPIRITS
KNOWLEDGE, NEITHER DOCTRINES OF DEVILS.
NEVER TOUCH OCCULT
MATTERS AND TEACHINGS.

THEY ARE OPENINGS AND LINKS TO THESE EVIL


SPIRITS WHICH ARE SEEKING FOR YOU TO DO, SO
THEY ENTER YOU. POSSESS YOU. TAKEOVER YOUR
MIND, LITERALLY.

THE DEVIL IS LIKE A ROARING LION EVER SEEKING, 24


HOURS A DAY, BEING IMMORTAL, NON-STOP, SEEKING
WHOM IT MAY DEVOUR,

8 “Be sober, be vigilant, because your adversary the devil, as a


roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour.
9 Whom resist, stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same
afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.
188
10 But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal
glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you
perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you,” (First Epistle 5:8-10).

SUPERNATURAL BEINGS?

People wonder if Satan the devil, and his fallen angel legions now
malignant demons and wicked spirits, are supernatural beings?

Yes, they are.

That is extremely bad news.

Very bad for mortals, flesh and blood, born of women.

Pitted against wicked perverted, twisted, cruel, merciless devils, and


similarly, malignant demons wicked, evil spirit, they are helpless, it
appears.

WHERE COULD WEAK HUMAN BEINGS TURN TO FOR


HELP THEN?

They were, in their former estate and nature as created by the


Eternal Creator God, angels of heaven, supernatural spirit beings.

Turned into demons thru rebellion against the GOD OF


HEAVEN, and cast down to the earth, they are roaming around,
twisted, perverted supernatural spirit beings. Invisible to the naked
eye. Their glorious spirit power gone, they are manifesting to human
beings as dim pockets and balls of dim light. BEWARE OF THEM.

189
THEY SHOW THEMSELVES AS UNIDENTIFIED
FLYING OBJECTS. UFOS.

They manifest in black magic. hypnotism. Lucifer worship. satan


worship. sacrifice of babies. cannibalism. they are manifested in
palmistry. fortune telling. geomancy. voodoo. sex orgies. illegal
drugs orgies. black Sabbath worship. IN PARANORMAL
ENGAGEMENTS. WITCH DOCTORS. soothsayers and
wizards that peep. Witches. Fortune tellers. Palmistry
practitioners.

THEY MANIFEST IN HIGHER LEVELS OF HUMAN


ACTIVITY. INFLUENCING HUMAN LEADERS. CRAZED
DICTATORS (HITLER OPENLY CITED AND
ACKNOWLEDGED AS SUCH ONE). MAD MONARCHS.
mad generals. SCIENTISTS WHO BECOME POSSESSED
CLAIMING DIVINITY AND GOD-LIKE POWERS.
INVENTING BIOLOGICAL, CHEMICAL, NUCLEAR,
WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION. POSSESSED
RELIGIOUS LEADERS. Appropriating spiritual titles and offices,
and authority that belong only to god. FALSE PROPHETS.
FALSE APOSTLES. false messiahs and false christs. Religious
ministers APPEARING AS ANGELS OF LIGHT. using ungodly
signs and wonders deceiving millions and millions to follow.

Chapter Eleven

THE TREE OF THE


KNOWLEDGE OF GOOD
AND EVIL
16 “And the LORD God commanded the man, saying,
‘Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat:
17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evll,
thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest
thereof thou shalt surely die,” (Book of Genesis 2:16-
2:16-17).

WHAT IS THE GOOD IN THE KNOWLEDGE?

Thus, the good news came first.

In God’s order of the acts, this is the way He has scripted the
story of human affairs. On the world’s stage, as Shakespeare
would have it, so to speak.

Over time, the good intermingled with the evil.

It was like on a weighing scale at the beginning.

192
They were at balance, on day 1. Equal in weight it seems, at the
commencement.

In the process of time, the aggregation of evil acts made the side
of evil heavier. And every evil act produced a heavier weight of
consequences for doing evil.

In the final accounting, massive evil weighed down mankind on


the weighing scale. Massive evil, made violence and wickedness
soaked mankind through, and thru. It led to the destruction of
the human race. God made the judgment in that day, (Book of
Genesis 6:5-6,11-13, 17-24).

In the Great Flood in Noah’s day, the punishment for total evil
in the human family was complete extinction in the floodwaters
that enveloped the whole earth.

Except for Noah and his family. All eight of them lived through
the Flood, kept alive in Noah’s Ark. Because Noah walked with
God. He was not a partaker of the evil in the knowledge of good
and evil. He lived in the righteousness of the good, in the same
knowledge of good and evil. The good news was the shining part
of his life, (Book of Genesis 6:8-9).

WHAT IS THE EVIL IN THE KNOWLEDGE?


At the end of the day, the evil in the knowledge, came after the
good, in that order.

Look in the word dictionary. Look in any thesaurus.

193
Words that pertain to the good, are few, yet weighty.

Light, for example. It shines on all. It brightens all the darkness,


and dissipates, evil works, so to speak.

Good health in a healthy person makes that person clean and


clear, so to speak. There are no infectious diseases or weakness in
his body system. There are no complications he suffers from.

He is not cluttered in his thoughts and in his ways, and his life is
simplified in goodness and righteousness, and in the good on the
scale.

> Confusion and proliferation of garbage in darkness. Dirt and


filth spreads around uncontrolled, in the evil side on the scale:

In the evil side of the scale, you see all the multiplying
complications., and endless attempts to find solutions You
witness the myriad problems as a result of the evil things in the
evil side of the scale of knowledge of good and evil.

And, thus, it gets murkier and heavier.

Words that pertain to the evil, bad, and wrong, are many. It
simply is too much to cope with by flesh and blood mortals. It
renders them unable to cope.

The consequences are so many.

The results in diseases are so many.

194
The consequences in crimes are so mind boggling. For they are
so many. They are self-cloning, and multiplying like bacteria
and germs. Infectious diseases multiply and spread rapidly in the
human body system.

A two volume encyclopedia is required to catalogue diseases, and


crimes, separately:

Volume 1- Diseases and Complications

Volume 2- Crimes and Consequences

Such is the nature and composition of evil.

THE POWER OF DECEPTION

The old serpent in the Garden of Eden employed the power of


deception to draw Eve, the mother of all living, to partake of the
tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

That proved to be the devil’s main weapon to bring evil, and its
myriad fruits, into the human family, and evil in the world
Satan the devil has crafted for man to be entangled in.

Mystery of the LIVING GOD – Part 1

Chapter Twelve

THE TREE OF LIFE

“And the LORD God said, ‘Behold, the man is become as


one of us, to know good and evil, and now lest he put
forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat,
and live for ever,
24 So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of
the garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword
which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of
life.” (Book of Genesis 3:22, 24).

THE MYSTERY OF THE TREE OF LIFE

Why did God use the Tree as a symbol?

The LORD God of the Old Testament chose to use the TREE as a
symbol. Having created the tree, and designed it to be a repository
and demonstration of the most astonishing biological systems and
principles, all of life, all analogous and perfect parallel to the human
body and being, which was wonderfully and fearfully made. From
196
all the way down to the lowest root, each and every rootlet, fiber,
and strand.
This makes the tree able to absorb all the biological sustenance of
nutrients from the very earth, the very ground in which it is
standing.

And the tree grows. From a seed, that buds and grows. To a sapling.
A seedling. As the human being, from a sperm, to an embryo.

They both grow. With perfectly parallel principles.

The trunk and the branches, are like the human body and the legs
and arms!

The tree and the human being receive nourishment from the earth,
water, and the air, and energy from the sun, and the light energy of
the same sun, and from the transforming blessing of the dew that
falls from heaven at night.

All micro and macro principles operate in perfect parallel. Living


cells dwell both in the tree and in the human body.

The tree grows, and stands on the same ground. Unless


transplanted, or replanted to some other places.

The human being, grows and lives on the same earth. Not in some
other planet. Even as he moves around, he is gravity-bound, living,
standing, so to speak, on the same terrestrial ground, same terra
firma.

So God has used the TREE.

197
WHAT IS THE LIFE IN THE TREE OF LIFE?
Christ, some four thousand years later, revealed in person, to His
disciples, all mortals, flesh and blood, born of women, that He is the
Way, the Truth, and the Life.

6 “Jesus saith unto him, ‘I am the way, the truth, and the life: no
man cometh unto the Father but by me,” (Gospel Book of
John14:6).

YES, >>>> JESUS, THE CHRIST OF GOD, IS THE LIFE IN


THE TREE OF LIFE!

And so it is that your life in its entirety, must begin, be lived, and
end, and ultimately be fulfilled in Christ.

EPILOGUE

Volume One

Mystery of the Church of the


Living God
Older than time when it began, before the foundation of the world,
are the spiritual values revealed from GOD in this Sacred Golden
Scroll Series.

LOVE – LIGHT –LIFE – MERCY – FAITH –


TRUTH – JUSTICE – VISION

> LOVE
LOVE

Love defining the GOD of Creation is also the very


foundation of His making the whole vast expanding universe, IN
THE BEGINNING, (Book of Genesis 1:1). God is Love, (First
Epistle of John 4:8). The demonstrated manifestation of awesome
order and design, and the immense beauty in all the heavenly
bodies, and especially, planet Earth, beheld thru the sharpest space
199
telescopes of the 21st century reflects the divine love behind their
creation. They are there made for the future immortal children of
God the Father whom God loves.

14 “For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of
God.
15 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but
ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, ‘Abba,
Father.’
16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the
chidren of God. Job 32:8 Eccl 3:21; 12:7. Zech 12:1
17 And if children, then heirs, heirs of God, and joint heirs with
Christ, if so be that we suffer with him, that we may also be glorified
together.
18 For I reckon thst the sufferings of this present are not worthy to
be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
2 Cor 4:17; 1 Pet 1:6

19 For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the


manifestation of the sons of God.,”
(Epistle to the Romans 8:14-19). 2 Pet 3:13

LOVE among mortals comes by nature in two: From the Greek


word: eros, physical love… and the other, philia, derived from
philadelphia.…brotherly love. Both of these are temporal.

> Eros is mostly physical romantic love, as understood in the world.


Partways, this often form the basis for the strong bonding between
two persons with a long maturation. This is essential in the raising
of children, and the continuation of the human family, and its units,
and extensions, or human species to evolutionists and scientists.
The example of parents who have partnered in balance and
200
constancy is essential to the growing of children and make them to
thrive emotionally and psychologically. The deprivation of human
families of this eros produces dysfunctional families. This is
endemic in today’s modern societies. Two thirds of every marriage
that ends in bitter divorce could be traced to the death of eros in
marriages.

> Philia is brotherly love. The filial love between parents and their
children. The love between friends. Love of neighbor. Love of one’s
kin’s and folks. The empirical self. The love of the bloodline and
family tree. Love of country. The love and caring about something
or someone else other than you is ennobling. This form and kind of
intense love bears transcendent fruit in you. This philia grows into
altruism. A selfless emotion of mature love that ennobles human
character.

When love attains the height of sweeping selflessness, of devotion,


stedfast commitment and unfailing care for others’ welfare and
happiness than you do your own. This, ultimately. becomes the
shining cornerstone in the building of the truly civilized community
and society of loving and caring men, and of civilization itself.
Without this, all civilization goes thru the historic cycle of
enthusiastic commencement, with enlightenment, growth,
sustained building, then familiarity and boredom, then
degeneration, immorality, apathy, cynicism, despair, and decay,
finally >>> collapse, quite rapidly.

> The love of, for, and from, God is agape. It is divine, spiritual
love, manifested in mortals, flesh and blood, born of women, that is
deathless. Boundless. Infinite. Forever. Everlasting. It is most
wonderful. Who can describe its glorious splendour? Only those that

201
are filled and living with agape, in their hearts, minds, whole being,
understanding, can.
> LIGHT

> God is light, (First Epistle of John 1:5).


This is the mother of all doctrines. The very doctrine from which all
spiritual doctrines emanate. Even as God dwells in unapproachable
light.

5 “This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare
unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. ch
3:33; John 1:9

6 If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness,


we lie, and do not the truth.
7 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,” (First Epistle of John 1:5-7). 1 Cor 6:11; Eph 1:7;
Heb 9:14

“You are the light of the world,” (Gospel Book of Matthew 5:14).

35 “Then Jesus said unto them, “Yet a little while is the light with
you. Walk while ye have the light, lest darkness come upon you: for
he that walketh in darkness knoweth not where he goeth.
ch 1:9

36 While ye have the light, believe in the light, that ye may be


children of light.’ These things spake Jesus, and departed, and did
hide himself from them,” (Gospel Book of John 12:35-36).

202
> CHRIST IS LIFE

“ I AM the resurrection and the LIFE: he that believeth in me,


though he were dead, yet shall he live” (Gospel Book of John
11:25).

“I AM THE WAY, THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE: NO MAN


COMETH TO THE FATHER BUT BY ME, John 14:5) Heb
9:8; ch. 8:32

THE LORD JESUS CHRIST REVEALED HE IS LIFE


PERSONIFIED. HE DEMONSTRATED HOW IT IS TO BE
LIFE IN WORD, IN THOUGHT, IN SPIRIT, IN DEED, AND
IN ACTION. TO BE SO, ONE MUST LOVE. THINK LOVE.
SPEAK LOVE. EAT LOVE. DRINK LOVE. YOUR WHOLE
LIFE, MIND, HEART, ENTIRE BEING, MUST REVOLVE,
VIBRATE, SPIN IN HARMONIOUS FREQUENCY, ABOUT
LOVE. THE LOVE OF GOD WHO IS LOVE.

THIS SACRED GOLDEN SCROLL Series XCI NOW REVEALS


FROM GOD.

28 “And we know that all things work together for good to them
that love God, to them who are called according to his purpose.
35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation,
or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or
sword?
36 As it is written, ‘For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we
are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.
37 Nay in all these things we are more than conquerors through him
that loved us.
203
38 For I am persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor
principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come.
Eph. 1:21
39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to
separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord,”
(Epistle to the Romans 8:28-39).

The secret of that quickening life is disclosed by Jesus, the Christ of


God.

Listen, disciples of the Lord Jesus Christ:

12 “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the


works that I do shall he do also: and greater works than these
Father. Mat 21:21
shall he do, because I go unto my Father.
13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that I will do, that
the Father may be glorified in the Son. Mat 7:7, 21. 22
14 If ye shall ask anything in my name, I will do it.
15 If ye love me, keep my commandments.
commandments. verses 21. 23.
16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another
Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever.
17 Even the Spirit of truth: whom the world can not receive,
because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him; but ye know
him;
him; for he dwelleth with you, and he shall be in you.
18 I will not leave you comfortless. I will come to you.
19 Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye
see me, because I live; ye shall live also.
ch 16:16
20 At that day, ye shall know that I am in my Father, and I in
you. ch 10:38
21 He that hath my commandments: and keepeth them, he it is
that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my
204
Father, and I will love him, and I will manifest myself to him.
1 John 2:5; 5:3
22 And Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that
thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world?
Luke 6:16
23 And Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he
will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will
come unto him, and make our abode with him,” (Gospel Book
of John 14:12-
14:12-23). 1 John 2:24

THINK: IF THE GODHEAD DWELLS IN YOU, WHAT


CAN YOU NOT DO?

THE MOST POWERFUL SET OF SACRED SCRIPTURES IN


THE HOLY BIBLE ARE NOW SET IN PRINT FOR YOU.
READ AND MASTER THEM IN YOUR WHOLE MIND AND
BEING.

> MERCY

Mercy is the hallmark of the divine nature and character of the


Most High God. His mercy endures forever. From everlasting to all
everlasting, to all of them that fear Him. (Book of Psalms 103:17).
As the heaven is high above the earth is God’s mercy, (Book of
Psalms 103:11; 145:8).

The Scriptures is full of the revelation of God’s enduring mercy,


(Books of First Chronicles 16:34; Ezra 3:11; Psalms 100:1; 107:1;
118:1; 136:1; to the end – prophet Jeremiah 33:1).

> JUSTICE

205
JUSTICE was missing and ignored in the religion of the Jews in the
days of Jesus, the Son of man, while he was on earth among the
Jews. For while the religious leaders, the scribes and the Pharisees,
were most meticulous and strict on the tenets of the codified Law,
and in their oppressive, UNFORGIVING additions to their
interpretations of it, and the keeping of them, justice was missing.
In this particular specific instance: about STRICT TITHING. The
absolute demand and collection, or payment to the utmost farthing,
of it. Justice went missing, it was banished out, and along with
mercy, and faith. These three were blanked out. By their very acts,
the letter of the Law killed. Justice, mercy, and faith would have
made it give life. The Lord Jesus Christ rebuked them, (Gospel
Books of Matthew 23:23; Luke 11:42). They ended up full of
hypocrisy, and were likened to whitened sepulchers, (Gospel Books
of Matthew 23:27; hypocrites – ch 15:7; 16:23; Mark 7:6; Luke
12:56).

JUSTICE defined is uprightness. Righteousness exercised in the


treatment of others, particularly by people of high rank and men in
authority, with the power of command. And of those given the
opportunity to teach, even to rule others. It begins with the father of
his own household: his wife, and children. He must be just
whenever the occasion arises and justice is the need of the moment.

“Keep the way of the LORD, to do justice.” (Book of Genesis


18:19). IT CAN ONLY TRULY BE MADE POSSIBLE IF THE
WAY OF GOD IS MADE APPLICABLE.
“Justice and judgment are the habitation of thy throne: mercy and
truth shall go before thy face.
15 Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound: they shall walk,
O LORD, in the light of thy countenance. Ps
98:6
206
16 In thy name shall they rejoice all the day: and in thy
righteousness shall they be exalted.
17 For thou art the glory of their strength: and in thy favour our
horn shall be exalted.
18 For the LORD is our defense; and the Holy One of Israel is our
king, (Book Psalms 89:14-18).

> FAITH

Faith as defined, is “The substance of things hoped for, the evidence


of things not seen”, (Epistle to the Hebrews11:1). Material, physical
substance is the heart and essence of every organic matter.

Spiritual substance is the inmost essence, profoundest meaning, and


deepest purpose, of every spiritual value. This directly refers to what
man, flesh and blood, born of woman, truly believes in his heart of
hearts, so to speak. “Without faith,” the Scriptures assert, “it is
impossible to please God,” (Epistle to the Hebrews 11:6).

The presence of faith is the proof of the presence and existence of


the world of the invisible. Things not seen by the naked eye.

Unremitting, unwavering faith makes possible the impossible.

> “ASK, AND IT SHALL BE GIVEN YOU,” (Gospel Books of


Matthew 7:7-8; 21:22; Luke 11:9).
>
> ASK IN PRAYER, WITH SUPPLICATIONS, (Book of Acts
11:4; Ephesians 6:18; Philippians 4:6). AND BOLDNESS, (Epistle
to the Hebrews 4:16).

> “YOU MUST ASK IN UNWAVERING BELIEF.


207
DOUBT NEGATES, EVEN BLOCKS, THE ANSWER YOU
ASK FOR. (Gospel Book of Matthew 21:21).

> ASK GOD FOR THE VERY FAITH BY WHICH YOU CAN
BELIEVE THESE THINGS.

ASK TO BE GRANTED THE FAITH IN, AND OF CHRIST


TO COME INTO YOUR HEART AND MIND TO BELIEVE
THAT WHAT YOU ASK FROM GOD WILL BE GRANTED,
OR GIVEN.

> THE ORIGINAL APOSTLES ASKED THE LORD JESUS


CHRIST FOR HIM TO INCREASE THEIR FAITH. SO MUST
YOU. HERE IS THE PRINCIPLE ON FAITH TO FOLLOW:
ASK FOR THE FAITH OF, AND IN. CHRIST TO BE IN YOU.

HERE, THE LOVING, KIND, ALL MERCIFUL GOD OF


CREATION AND DIVINE PROVIDENCE REVEALS THE
AMAZING WAY TO RECEIVE SUPPLY FOR, AND OF, ALL
THE GOOD THINGS THAT YOU NEED. THIS IS THE WAY
TO SUCCEED!

RECEIVE THIS WITH ALL THANKFULNESS AND


GLADNESS. YOUR SECRET KEY TO ABUNDANCE AND
SUCCESS IS NOW IN YOUR HANDS.

BEING BLESSED WITH THE REALIZATION AND


MANIFESTATION IN YOUR LIFE ---- DEPENDS ON YOU!

> TRUTH

208
“Sanctify them through thy word. Thy word is truth,”(Gospel Book
of John 17:17).

The WORD OF GOD sets apart the members of the Body of


Christ. It enables them by revelation, and understanding given by
Christ, thru the Holy Spirit, of THE WORD to live BY THE
SACRED WORD. They LIVE, thereby, BY EVERY WORD
THAT COMES OUT OF THE MOUTH OF GOD. Doing so,
separates them apart from the rest of the carnal, secular world of
man in the land of the living who continue to be the living walking
dead., (Epistles to the Ephesians 2:1, 5; Colossians 2:13).

All these in the world live by, and do their own thing. Guided by
their man-made persuasions and convictions. Abetted by the
invisible prince of the power of the air: Satan the devil, and his
legions of demons and wicked spirits, IN SOME PARTS
ACKNOWLEDGING GOD, YET REFUSE TO LIVE BY
EVERY WORD. IN SOME PARTS, GOD IS DENIED. AND SO
REFUSE TO LIVE BY THE WORD.

> VISION

Without vision, the people perish, (Book of Proverbs 29:18). It is


vision, particularly spiritual vision, that impels individuals, and
people, to persevering action with unremitting faith. To carry on
keeping on against all difficult and impossible odds. To ever
continue to overcome till success is attained.

SPIRITUAL VISION COMES FROM GOD.

The patriarch Abraham had living, unremitting faith, with the


profoundest vision. They were the twin underpinnings of his life.
209
He believed the LORD God, and believed absolutely. Whatever the
LORD God told him to do, he went on to obey the LORD God’s
instructions, even to sacrifice his only son, by his wife Sarah, Isaac,
(Book of Genesis 22:1-18).

He was called God’s Friend, a most unique honor not granted by


the LORD God to any other mortal, (Book of the Second
Chronicles 20:7; Epistle of James 2:23).

He received not the promise while he lived, YET HE looked


beyond, with unwavering, clearest vision, and living faith, to the city
afar off, to the city not made with hands, whose Builder and Maker
is God!, (Epistle to the Hebrews 11:8-10). Ch 12:22; Rev 21:10

ABRAHAM looked beyond his day and time, into the new world to
come. Even farther than the moment of the long awaited return of
the Lord Jesus Christ in the end of days.

Beyond the death, and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ, the
firstborn from the dead, (He died, gave up the spirit – Gospel Books
of Matthew 27:50; HE IS RISEN – Matthew 8:6; 27:53; Mark
16:6).

Beyond into the demise of wicked human civilization. The end of


the world, (Gospel Book of Matthew 24:2).

Watched in awe at the First Resurrection of the firstfruits, in which


he would be one, amongst, (Book of Revelation 20:6).
That they will rise first. And saw in vision those very elect of the
saints left alive transformed from mortal to immortal in the

210
twinkling of of an eye, (First Epistle to the Corinthians 15:51-54;
Firs Epistle to the Thessalonians 4:14-16).

He saw as they rose into the air to meet the returning Great God
and Saviour. (First Epistle to the Thessalonians 4:17).

He envisioned them descend and set their foot on the Mount of


Olives following the Divine Messiah, to commence the government
and rule of the Kingdom of God on Earth, (Book of the prophets
Zechariah 14:1-5; 9; Isaiah 2:2-4; Micah 4:1-3; Revelation 5:10)
Jer. 20:5; Zech. 8:21; Luke 24:47; Ps. 46:9; Ps. 72:3, 7

Lingered awhile to the commencement of the Millennium. The


rebuilding of the whole earth into a worldwide Garden of Eden.
And paused through the wonderful Millennial Utopia, (Book of the
prophet Isaiah 11:6; 65:21-25).

Saw it all through the Second Resurrection of all those that ever
lived, and ever died, (Book of Revelation 20:12-13).

Through the 100-Year Judgment Period, (Book of the prophet


Isaiah 65:20).

And the greatest celebration in all history: The Wedding of Christ


with His Bride, the Church of God! (Book of Revelation 19:7-9).

On beyond…. >>>> into the glorious City of God, in the New


Heaven and the New Earth. In to that time when he will be among
the foremost among the resurrected, immortal sons, the children of
God, under the Lord Jesus Christ, the King of kings, and Lord of
lords, in the Divine Family, and the Government, of the Kingdom
of God, (Book of Revelation chapter 21-22).

BODY OF BELIEFS AND


DOCTRINES OF THE
CHURCH OF THE LIVING
GOD, PILLAR AND
BULWARK OF THE TRUTH

“But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how to


behave thyself in the house of God, which is the church
of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth,”
(First Epistle to Timothy 3:15)

THE HEAD OF THE CHURCH OF GOD WILLS


FOR THEM TO LIVE BY THESE REVEALED
SPIRITUAL VALUES

Walk ye in them,,, that you, and your children, may live,

213
TO THE CHURCH OF GOD IN THE
WILDERNESS:
“NOW therefore hearken, O Israel, unto the statutes and
judgments, which I teach you, for to do them, that ye may live, and
go in and possess the land which the LORD God of your fathers
giveth you. Lev 19:37
2 Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither
shall ye diminish aught from it, that ye may keep the
commandments of the LORD your God which I command you.
5 Behold I have taught you statutes and judgments, as the LORD
my God commanded me, that you should do so in the land whither
ye go to possess it.
6 Keep therefore and do them; for this is your wisdom and your
understanding in the sight of the nations, which shall hear of these
statutes, and say, “Surely this great nation is a wise and
understanding people.” Job 28:26; Ps. 19:7
7 For what nation is there so great who hath God so nigh unto
them, as the LORD our God is in all things that we call upon him
for? 2 Sam 7:23
8 And what nation is there so great, that hath statutes and
judgments so righteous as all this law, which I set before you this
day?
9 Only take heed to thyself, and keep thy soul diligently, lest thou
forget the things which thine eyes have seen, and lest they depart
from thy heart all the days of thy life: but teach them thy sons, and
thy son’s sons; Prov 4:23
10 Specially the day that thou stoodest before the LORD thy God
in Horeb, when the LORD said unto me, ‘Gather me the people
together, and I will make them hear my words, that they may learn
to fear me all the days that they shall live upon the earth, and that
they may teach their children.
214
12 And the LORD spake unto you...
13 And he declared unto you his covenant, which he commanded
you to perform, even ten commandments; and he wrote them upon
two tables of stone. Ch 9:9; Ex 34:28
14 And the LORD commanded me at that time to teach you
statutes and judgments, that ye should do them in the land whither
ye go over to possess it,” (Book of Deuteronomy 4:1-14).

PARAPHRASE:

TO THE NEW TESTAMENT CHURCH OF GOD


“NOW therefore hearken, O Church of the Living God, unto the
statutes and judgments, which I teach you, for to do them, that you
may live, and go in and possess your spiritual inheritance which the
LORD God of your fathers gives you. Lev 19:37
2 Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither
shall you diminish aught from it, that you may keep the
commandments of perfect love of the LORD God which I
command you.
5 Behold I have taught you spiritual statutes and spiritual
judgments, as the LORD my God commanded me, that you should
do so in the Way of life, of faith, whither you go to walk on all the
days of your life in the flesh…
6 Keep therefore and do them; for this is your wisdom and your
understanding in the sight of the nations, and peoples of the earth,
which shall hear of these spiritual statutes, and say, Surely, this
church of the Living God is made great, an assembly, a congregation
of the saints, who are made wise and understanding people by the
Lord God.
Job 28:26; Ps. 19:7
215
7 For what church is there so great who has God so near unto
them, as the LORD our God is in all things that we call upon him
for? 2 Sam 7:23
8 And what church is there so great, that has spiritual statutes and
spiritual judgments so righteous as all this law of perfect love, which
I set before you this day?
9 Only take heed to yourself, and keep your soul diligently, lest you
forget the things which your eyes have seen, and lest they depart
from your heart all the days of your life: but teach them your sons,
and your son’s sons; Prov 4:23
10 Specially the day that you stood before the Lord God when you
were baptized, and made your spiritual covenant with the Lord God,
and His Christ, His beloved Son the Lord Jesus Christ, when the
LORD said unto me, ‘Gather me the members of the church, the
saints in assemblies and in congregations of worship services
together, and I will make them hear My Words, that they may learn
to fear Me all the days that they shall live upon the earth, and that
they may teach their children.
12 And the LORD spake unto you...
13 And he declared unto you His Spiritual Covenant, which He
commanded you to perform, even Ten Commandments of Love;
and He wrote them upon two spiritual tables in your heart and
mind. ch 9:9; Ex 34:28
14 And the LORD commanded me at that time to teach you
spiritual Statutes and spiritual Judgments, that you should do them,
in this your life of the faith once delivered to the saints,, whither
you go over to possess your spiritual inheritance,” (IN
PARAPHRASE OF THE Book of Deuteronomy 4:1-14).

THESE ARE THE TEN SPIRITUAL VALUES.

216
THE TEN COMMANDMENTS ARE SPIRITUAL
VALUES OF RIGHTEOUSNESS REVOLVING
AROUND PERFECT SPIRITUAL LOVE BOUND IN
RADIANT AGAPE
AS WELL AS EMANATING FROM IT

“These are the statutes and judgments, which ye shall observe to do


in the land, which the LORD God of thy fathers giveth to possess it,
all the days that ye live upon the earth,” (Book of Deuteronomy
12:1; 4:1-10; 6:1-3; 11:18-22).

TO THE NEW TESTAMENT CHURCH OF GOD

“Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, just, and
good,” (Epistle to the Romans 7:12).

THE WISEST MAN WHO EVER LIVED, SPOKE


FOR ALL MANKIND FOR ALL TIMES:

13 “Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and
keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man, (Book
of Ecclesiastes 12:13). Deut.10:12

THE GREAT APOSTLE OF THE FAITH


AND HIGH PRIEST OF THE CHRISTIAN
PROFESSSION, OF THE
ORDER OF MELCHISEDEC,
(Epistle to the Hebrews 3:1),
SPOKE:
217
“If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them,” (Gospel Book
of John13:17).

TWO FOREMOST SERVANTS OF GOD IN


ALL HISTORY TO EMULATE

ENOCH walked with God, (Book of Genesis 5:22-24).

He did not see death. ‘He was not, and God took him.’ He died in
his sleep, and was not conscious when he died. after 365 years. “He
was translated, that he should not see death,” {See Elijah: 2 Ki 2:11-
12; Heb. 11:5}. In the prophet Elijah’s case, at the latter point,
while alive, He was taken up into the atmosphere, the first heaven,
on a chariot, and carried back to earth. To terra firma, so to speak.
Like Moses, who went to die in an undisclosed place, else the people
will go and deify his bones. Make a religious icon out of it. Or
worship his bones, (Book of Deuteronomy 32:49-50; 34:5-7; Num
27:27;12-14). God did not allow such things. And so in the same
manner and principle was Enoch.

NOAH walked with God, (Book of Genesis 6:9).

Noah and his family, eight of them altogether, lived thru the Great
Flood that drowned all living human beings, in their tens of billions
in their day, when it came upon the whole earth. Because the
righteous Noah “WALKED WITH GOD!”

YOU CAN!

218
THE CHURCH OF GOD, RECIPIENT AND HOLDERS,
ALBEIT HEIRS, OF ALL THESE PRICELESS KNOWLEDGE
OF THE GLORIOUS TRUTH, AND THE REVELATION OF
THE MYSTERY OF SALVATION, ARE BIDDEN, AND
HELD, RESPONSIBLE TO, AND MUST, WALK WITH GOD.

Take heed, brethren, what the Spirit says to the


churches.

The Secret of Everlasting Success

Allow us to pass it on to you.

Christ Jesus, The Son of GOD, have one unremitting


MAGNIFICENT OBSESSION. Read it.

JESUS SAID UNTO THEM: “MY MEAT IS TO DO THE


WILL OF HIM THAT SENT ME, AND TO FINISH HIS
WORK,” (John 4:34).

To DO the WILL, and to FINISH THE WORK of His Father,


GOD THE FATHER, absolutely, totally, without any micro-
iota of doubt, was His everlasting

obsession. It was the raison d’etre, the rationale, the locus


and focus of His Mind, It was the fixed reference point. It
was the very lever, the innermost motivation and deep-
seated drive, of His presence on earth. The driving force of
His manifestation on earth. The back of His mind, mental
force on terrestrial ground, the heavenly correspondence
and connection of His mortal being, in the flesh for 33 1/2
years. He was totally committed, completely absorbed, to
finish His Father's Work, To His last seconds of His dying
breath, His consciousness was on God’s Work. He
had a job to do… And that,

HE DID!

221
When that Phase of God's Work for which purpose He was
sent to earth and manifest in mortal, human, flesh and
blood, form was over, He cried on the upright crude stake,
at the very exact moment before He literally died, He said
on that wooden stake, “IT IS FINISHED” (John 19:30).
Has anybody ever really understood the immensity, the
unfathomable depth of that moment of total sacrifice of the
Son of God for the forgiveness of all the sins of all
mankind? Of the total, collective SIN of everyone who was
ever born, lived, died, and those presently alive, which He
bore and took upon Himself on that crucifixion?. Has
anyone ever shared the agony and pain when He was
pierced by a Roman soldier’s spear, and given bitter
vinegar to wet His thirsting lips? When He looked up into
Heaven, and exclaimed, as it were, as He had prayed with
great agony earlier with His disciples: “Father, if thou be
willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless, not MY
WILL, BUT THINE BE DONE,”(Luke 22:42). When He
willingly shed His precious Blood, THE BLOOD OF THE
LAMB OF GOD, for the redemption from the penalty of
death for sin hanging over ALL mankind? Has anybody
thought of God the Father’s unscalable sorrow as He
witnessed from Heaven the unspeakable brutal tortures
inflicted by good-for-nothing picky, petty, power-crazed,
puny mortals, clumps of clay, those “whitened sepulchres”,
and ultimately, the actual, literal death of the incarnated into
human flesh other member of the GODHEAD? In grief,
God the Father could just have pulled out the Holy Spirit of
power holding the entire created universe together. It would
have been , like a blink on the screen, that the visible,
physical, material universe could have disappeared! Faster
than the twinkling of an eye, all the physical, material
creation, visible and invisible, could just have evaporated.

222
The LORD was absolutely certain He had done that
appointed job.

THIS IS THE GREATEST SUCCESS STORY FOR


ALL TIME!

He succeeded by His total willingness to obey


God the Father. His total yieldedness to suffer
for the sake of the human race that the Most
High God created by Him, thru the Holy Spirit.
His total submission to go through the
unbearable pain that tore into His deepest
Being. He willingly yielded in the agony of that
one moment in time when ALL THE SINS OF ALL
CREATED MANKIND CAME UPON HIM! HE
BECAME AS SIN TOTALLY PERSONIFIED! THAT
WAS THE EXACT MOMENT IN ALL THE HISTORY
OF THE UNIVERSE, YEA, OF ALL ETERNITY,
WHEN GOD THE FATHER TURNED AWAY FROM
HIM. WHEN HIS FATHER TURNED HIS BACK
FROM HIM. THE DYING SINLESS, PERFECT
JESUS KNEW. FOR HE CRIED OUT: “MY GOD,
MY GOD, WHY HAST THOU FORSAKEN ME?”,
(Ps 22:1; Mat 27:46; Mk 15:34). His total
surrender to the requirements of BRINGING
SALVATION FOR YOU AND ME, YEA, ALL OF US
FROM THE FIRST MAN, TO THE LAST ONE
STANDING, EVEN TO THE LAST ONE WHO DIED,
BEFORE HIS RETURN. That He must shed His

223
precious Blood as the Lamb of God to
PURCHASE REDEMPTION FROM THE PENALTY
OF DEATH HANGING OVER EACH OF THEM. To
ultimately literally die that they may all be
JUSTIFIED.

AND SO HE DIED. He ‘yielded up the ghost’, (Mat


27:30). For three days and three nights, He was
in the grave, buried with transgressors! For 3
sunsets and 3 sunrises, the other member of the
GODHEAD was literally dead!

AND THEN HE WAS RISEN! (Mat 27:28; Mk 16:6;


Lk 24:34; Jn 2:22; I Cor 15:4, 20). YES, HE WAS
RESURRECTED FROM THE DEAD. To become
the firstfruits of them that slept,” (I Cor 15.20).
‘First Born among many brethren’, (Rom 8:29)>
“First Born from the dead’, (Col.1:15). YES, HE
LIVES, THAT WE, TOO, CAN HAVE, MAY HAVE,
AND WILL HAVE THE ULTIMATE BLESSING TO
BE RESURRECTED FROM THE DEAD. For we all
must die, once. And after that, the JUDGMENT,’
(Heb 9:27).

“And without controversy, great is the mystery


of Godliness: GOD WAS MANIFEST IN THE
FLESH, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels,
PREACHED UNTO THE GENTILES, believed in
the world, received up unto glory,” (I Tim 3:16).
224
“I have glorified thee on the earth; I HAVE
FINISHED THE WORK Which thou gavest me to
do. And Now O Father, glorify thou me with
thine own self with the glory that I had with
thee before the world was,” (Jn 17:4-5).

THIS IS THE GREATEST SUCCESS STORY THAT


ALL MANKIND AND THOSE THAT WILL COME
AFTER US WILL CELEBRATE IN JOY FOR ALL
ETERNITY!

Before He returned to heaven, He prayed in the true Lord's


Prayer in the 17th chapter of the Gospel Book of John in the
New Testament Scriptures:

THIS IS THE TESTIMONY OF JESUS CHRIST: "I


have glorified Thee on the earth; I have finished the Work
which thou gavest me to do, and now, O Father, glorify
me with the glory which I had with thee before
the world was,” (John 17:4)

WHAT DID GOD THE FATHER DO FOR THIS


ACCOMPLISHMENT OF HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN
SON?

“Where God has also exalted Him, and given Him a NAME
which is above every name; that at the NAME of Jesus
Christ every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and
things in earth, and things under the earth; and that every
225
tongue should confess Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of
God the Father," (PHILIPPIANS 2:9).

SO WHAT, DEAR FRIEND, IS YOUR


MAGNIFICENT OBSESSION?

IF YOU DO the Work of God, be it so little your part and


participation, if you do it with cheer, humility, appreciation,
enthusiasm, and zeal being full of faith, you can then hold
God to redeem, to remembrance, and lay claim to, His
wonderful promises on your behalf! Christ did. And God the
Father gave it to His Son in whom He was well pleased.
ASK AFTER, and He will give it to you.

WHEN YOU PASS THIS ON, YOU BECOME A


PART OF CHRIST'S TEAM!

Listen to God's RECOGNITION of you, your effort:


‘’How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of them that
bringeth glad tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth
good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation;
that saith unto Zion, thy God reigneth!" (Isaiah 52:7).

You become part and parcel, not a fence-sitter on


the fringes of skepticism, an integral constituent, a
chosen fabric interwoven with, and of the foremost,
unparalleled company: "The LORD gave the word;
great was the company that published it."
(Psalms 68:11).

226
THE GREATEST COMMISSION MUST NOW BE
FULFILLED

The Lord Jesus Christ, the Divine Captain of Salvation


(Hebrews 2:10), the Author and Finisher of the Faith
(Hebrews 12:2), The LORD of hosts (John 17:5), The
returning Messiah (John 1:41; 4:25; Daniel 9:25;9:26);the
awaited Great God and our Saviour (Titus 2:13) gave the
2,000 year-edict: "GO, Preach and publish the
GOSPEL of the KINGDOM OF GOD into ALL
NATIONS, GO INTO ALL THE WORLD, Teach
EVERY CREATURE to OBSERVE ALL THINGS I
have commanded you, (Matthew 28:19; Mark 16:15;
Luke 24:47). Be witnesses unto Him to the utmost part of
the earth (Acts 1:8).

Is there a Mission from a Divine Potentate greater


than this?

MYSTERY OF THE CHURCH
OF THE LIVING GOD

O UR HOLY FATHER, LORD GOD


ALMIGHTY IN HEAVEN…

Before Your divine majesty and glorious presence we


come. We bow our heads in all humbleness. We come on
our knees to worship You. We utter our voices of
supplications.

We bring once more our joyful songs of praise. Our joy-


filled hymns of worship. Our reverent spiritual songs of
thanksgiving.

The Church of the Living GOD was raised and kept in


YOUR HOLY NAME.

231
Everytime we utter the phrase, it reminds us that we
belong to YOU. For this, we thank You ever so much. For
considering us at all.
For You called the base. the weak. the not many noble.
and yet YOU chose to accept us for spiritual adoption into
YOUR very FAMILY. To be children, sons of GOD.

We humbly acknowledge all of these wonderful blessings.


We feel unworthy. For we are but lowly dust, and yet You
have considered us. We are grateful beyond words to
thank You, O Most High and Gracious GOD.

There are many a marvelous truths YOU have revealed in


this Sacred Golden Scroll Series XCI. Things we used to
gloss over so carelessly and taken for granted. Yet as we
reread and review the Scriptures, YOU cause our limited
minds to see wondrous things we did not see before. The
Scriptures are now to us a flowing fountain of living
waters. that refreshes us everytime we come to drink and
be nourished.
we CONTINUALLY HUNGER. WE CONTINUALLY
THIRST FOR THE NOURISHING SUBSTANCE OF
YOUR WORD. AND THE EYE-OPENING POWER
OF YOUR REVELATIONS. THE FULFILLMENT OF
THE ANCIENT PROPHECIES YOU HAVE
PRONOUNCED AS THEY UNFOLD IN OUR TIME
OF THE END OF DAYS.

232
CONTINUE, OUR LOVING AND GRACIOUS
HOLY FATHER, TO FEED US WITH ALL THESE.
YOU KNOW HOW WELL THE WORLD
IMPOVERISHES US WITH ALL ITS
BOMBARDMENTS OF NEVER-ENDING
DECEPTIONS AND LIES.

Help us to overcome the world. Make us thereby very able


to carry out our many tasks in doing the greatest ONE
SOLE MISSION in all the world.

All these we pray in the very Name of our Lord and


saviour Jesus Christ, High Priest, Great Shepherd, and
Head, of the Church of the Living GOD.

Amen.
