Introduction
It is God’s will and His command for us
to fast and be joyful as the LORD GOD is working to get the captives return to
Zion and He will establish spiritual Jerusalem. All praise to the LORD GOD!
4th month---4th
July ---1st Aug (Tamuz)
Fourth
month, on the fifth day of the month, --So the day
to fast is from evening of
7th to evening of 8th July 2008.
5th month---2nd
Aug.---31st Aug (Av)
10TH DAY----EVE. of 10TH Aug. TO EVE 11TH Aug.
7th month --30th
Sep ---29th Oct (Tishrei)
10th Month—28th
Dec---25th Jan (Tivet)
1st day of the tenth month--eve. of 27th to eve
of 28th Dec. 2008
Zec 8:19 "Thus says the LORD of hosts: ‘the fast of the fourth month, The fast of the fifth, The fast of the seventh, And the fast of the tenth, Shall be joy and gladness and cheerful feasts For the house of Judah. Therefore love truth and peace.’
Zec 7: 5 "Say to all the people
of the land, and to the priests: ‘When you fasted and mourned in the fifth and seventh months
during those seventy years, did
you really fast for Me––for Me?
7 --‘Should you not
have obeyed the words which the LORD proclaimed through the former prophets
9 -"Thus says the
LORD of hosts: ‘Execute true justice, Show mercy and compassion Everyone to his
brother.
10-- Do not oppress
the widow or the fatherless, The alien or the poor. Let none of you plan evil
in his heart Against his brother.’
11
"But they
refused to heed,-- 12--Thus great wrath came
from the LORD of hosts.
Above verses shows that the church of God had not fasted properly, according to the standards and requirements of God and thus God had not accepted all those fasts as the priests had not kept God’s judgments---Mercy had not been among the priests of God and they have oppressed the brethren. They have not heeded the prophets although God gave His judgments through the prophets!
Zec 8:19 --- Therefore love truth and peace.’
During the last
days---through Jesus Christ’s short work of judgment He had shown the truth and
peace and therefore the people of God are admonished to heed to His words to
LOVE TRUTH AND PEACE.
They are recorded in

THE LORD GOD WORKED
THUS AS HE IS ZEALOUS FOR Zion!
Zech. 8: 1 --Again the
word of the LORD of hosts came, saying,
2 "Thus says the LORD of hosts: ‘I am
zealous for Zion with great zeal; With great fervor I am zealous for her.’
3--"Thus says the
LORD: ‘I will return to Zion, And dwell in the midst of Jerusalem. Jerusalem
shall be called the City of Truth, The Mountain of the LORD of hosts, The Holy
Mountain.’
8--I will bring them back, And they shall
dwell in the midst of Jerusalem. They shall be My people And I will be their
God, In truth and righteousness.’
ZECH.8 THUS IS WRITTEN
ABOUT THE RETURN OF CAPTIVITY AND PEOPLE OF GOD ARE GIVEN Revelations THROUGH
PROPHETS OF RE. 11: 10 THAT THE TEMPLE MIGHT BE BUILT---
9 --- "Thus
says the LORD of hosts: ‘Let your hands be strong, You who have been hearing in
these days—hearing--words by the mouth of the prophets,-- That the temple might
be built.
10--There was no peace
from the enemy for whoever went out or came in; For I set all men, everyone,
against his neighbor.
11--But now I will not
treat the remnant of this people as in the former days,’ says the LORD of
hosts.
Former days the LORD GOD had not even accepted the fasts of God’s people, but the remnant which separated who was not taken by king of Babylon (Jeremiah. 39; 10) are producing fruits as God gave the dew of heaven to them. Thus gentiles of Revelation 11; 2 possess God’s precious things. See below--
Zec. 8: 12 ‘For the seed shall be prosperous, The vine
shall give its fruit, The ground shall give her increase, And the heavens shall give their dew––I
will cause the remnant of this people To possess all these.
13 --And it shall come
to pass That just as you were a curse among the nations, O house of Judah and
house of Israel, So I will save you, and you shall be a blessing. Do not fear,
Let your hands be strong.’
When the gentiles got these Revelations from God they are proclaiming them to the people of God declaring that God will save them and that the temple will be rebuilt in righteousness by Jesus Christ Himself---
15- So again in these
days I am determined to do good To Jerusalem and to the house of Judah. Do not
fear.
16- These are the
things you shall do: Speak each
man the truth to his neighbor; Give judgment in your gates for truth,
justice, and peace;
17-- Let none of you think evil in
your heart against your neighbor; And do not love a false oath. For all these are things that I
hate,’ Says the LORD."
SO AGAIN----DURING THESE
DAYS—(PRESENT TRUTH)—THE LORD GOD HAS DETERMINED TO DO GOOD TO THE CHURCH—BUT
THEY SHOULD SPEAK THE TRUTH!
EACH MAN HAS TO EXAMINE HIS WAYS AND CORRECT HIMSELF! DO
NOT DO THE THINGS GOD HATES!
19 "Thus says
the LORD of hosts: ‘The fast of the fourth month, The fast of the
fifth, The fast of the seventh, And the fast of the
tenth, Shall be joy and gladness and cheerful feasts For the
house of Judah. Therefore love truth and peace.’
4th—5th---7th—10th---FASTS
WILL PRODUCE JOY AND GLADNESS AS THE LORD GOD HAS DETERMINED TO DO GOOD TO THE
CHURCH!
AFTER THE 10TH---
Zech 1: 7--- On the twenty–fourth day of the
eleventh month,
11--and behold, all the earth is
resting quietly."
That was A prophecy
that earth will rest by eleventh month ---and the LORD GOD will dwell among men
of Israel –
Zech 2: 10 -- "Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion! For behold,
I am coming and I will dwell in your midst," says the LORD.
11 "Many nations shall be joined to the LORD in that day,
and they shall become My people. And I will dwell in your midst. Then you will know that the LORD
of hosts has sent Me to you.
12--"And the LORD
will take possession of
Judah as His inheritance in the Holy Land, and will again choose Jerusalem.
The LORD GOD took the
poor as the vinedressers OF JUDAH as they did not go into captivity and through
their work WILL AGAIN CHOOSE JERUSLAEM!
Jer 39:10 -But Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard left in the land of Judah the poor people, who had nothing, and gave them vineyards and fields at the same time.
THE LORD GOD IS AROUSED AND IS IN ACTION TO PERFORM HIS WORK OF BRINGING SALVATION TO HIS PEOPLE--
Zech 2: 13 "Be silent, all flesh, before the LORD, for He is
aroused from His holy habitation!"
Zec. 8: 12 ‘For the seed shall be prosperous, The vine
shall give its fruit, The ground shall give her increase, And the heavens shall give their dew––I
will cause the remnant of this people To possess all these.
Gerald Flurry wrote DEW
SHALL TEAR THE FLESH---
All flesh has to be
silent when the dew of heaven falls through the remnant whose work shall be
prosperous!
DEW WILL TEAR THE FLESH OF THE KINGS OF GOD’S CHURCH!
THE LORD GOD VISITED THOSE IN SPIRITUAL CAPTIVITY ---Gerald
Flurry SAW THESE VISIONS!
HE WROTE IN Ezekiel BOOKLET—
Please read in your copy of the above book of Gerald Flurry—he wrote of the vehicle of God as the powerful vehicle of God—but it came to destroy them (he went in bitterness-Ezekiel.3: 14)—
Eze 43:3 --The vision I saw was like the vision I had seen when he came to destroy the city and like the visions I had seen by the Kebar River, and I fell face down.
Ezekiel 1: 3 --The word of the LORD came expressly unto Ezekiel the priest, the son of Buzi, in the land of the Chaldeans
Gerald Flurry wrote Ezekiel booklet and claimed he is the modern day Ezekiel! We even know how his wife was taken –Ezekiel 24: 16
WE HAD SHOWN THESE IN OUR WRITINGS.
IT IS NOT AN EASY THING
TO FALL INTO THE HANDS OF GOD! GOD’S PEOPLE SHOULD LEARN FROM THESE EXPERIENCES
AS THEY HAD NOT HEEDED THE PROPHETS!
WHEN GOD TEACHES
THROUGH PROPHETS ONE MUST FAST AND PRAY AND UNDERSTAND—GOD’S SERVANTS SHOULD BE
VERY VIGILANT!
THUS CAPTIVITY WAS SHOWN BY GOD IN THE FOURTH MONTH—FIFTH DAY
4th
month----Jer 39:2—city penetrated--Jer 52:6
--captivity severe--Eze 1:1--- Now it came to pass in the thirtieth
year, in the fourth month, on the fifth day of the month, as I was among the
captives by the River Chebar, that the heavens were opened and I saw visions of
God.
24 --When they went, I heard
the noise of their wings, like the noise of many waters, like the voice of the
Almighty,
3: 4--Then He said to me: "Son of man, go to the house of Israel and speak with My words to them.
5: 11---son of man was told--- ‘Therefore, as I live,’ says the Lord GOD, ‘surely, because you have defiled My sanctuary with all your detestable things and with all your abominations, therefore I will also diminish you; My eye will not spare, nor will I have any pity.
THUS TO BRING BACK THE CAPTIVITY GOD HAD TO FIRST REMOVE THE
PROPHET AS HE DEFILED GOD’S SANCTUARY—
This day God had chosen to speak to the people of captivity through the prophet He chose for Israel and warned them.
Zech 8 speaks of bringing back these captives, and that was the first part of the plan God was revealing to the prophet.
Warning and then if they had not heeded the warnings, then the judgment and afterwards to write the law in their minds and then settle them with inheritance—
Prophet became defiled and then we GENTILES had to declare—now that the judgment is over there is another schedule to get the captives examine God’s desires in order to bring them back to the fold—they do not understand—the Gentile Assembly and little sanctuaries understand and therefore we have to fast to be with one with God—
God is very serious in
our calling—He has given us a work—
We are supposed to
make God establish Jerusalem!
Isa 62:7-- And give Him no rest till He establishes and till He makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth.
When God performs a work it is spiritual –Jesus Christ fasted 4o days –He was not miserable –when spiritual things are to be attained and to drive away the demonic spirit we have to take the example of Jesus Christ! Even Moses did fast forty days!
This is a time the law will have to be written in the hearts of God’s people, spiritual preparations have to be done. The servants of God today have spiritual things to do. We are to be in a spiritual kingdom! We should understand!
It is God’s will that he brings them back from captivity—and we should be having that same mind of Christ. For this reason to be
AT-ONE WITH GOD---just as the Day of Atonement (at-one-ment)
We have to fast—but this is a joyful feast---as Zech 8: 19 says—
"Thus says the
LORD of hosts: ‘The fast
of the fourth month, The fast of the fifth, The fast of the seventh, And the
fast of the tenth, Shall be joy and gladness and cheerful feasts For the house of Judah. Therefore
love truth and peace.’
Since it says love
the truth and peace, that means, it is the time God’s truth and peace is
available, It was not available before the truth was shown. Errors prevailed
during the seventy year period---- Zec 7: 5 "Say
to all the people of the land, and to the priests: ‘When you fasted and mourned in the fifth and seventh months during those seventy
years, did you really fast for Me––for Me?
Therefore, this fast
has to be done when truth and peace was revealed through Jesus Christ’s short
work.
PEACE COVENANT IS TO
BE MADE DURING THE TIME JESUS CHRIST IS RAISING THE RUINS OF THE TABERNACLE OF
DAVID.
We had shown these
in our writings.
This fast has to be
fasted FOR GOD! ----WE ARE NOT IN THE SEVENTY-YEAR PERIOD!
Joyful, as we know that the LORD GOD will come to dwell with His people very soon AS HE is planning to do —Jesus Christ has to clean the temple and we should work for that as present day servants of the LORD GOD!
WHAT A JOYFUL TIME FOR US BRETHREN!
HOW LONG HAD WE BEEN WAITING? THE DAYS ARE AT HAND!
4th
month----Jer 39:2—city penetrated--Jer 52:6
--captivity severe--Eze 1:1--- Now it came to pass in the thirtieth
year, in the fourth month, on the fifth day of the month, as I was among the
captives by the River Chebar, that the heavens were opened and I saw visions of
God.
4th month---We have to remember that God’s children should not defile God’s sanctuary—they should heed to the prophets God sends—God’s things are to be HIGHLY REGARDED!---not to treat God as humans, but to LISTEN TO HIM WITH GODLY FEAR---honour HIS MAJESTY—REVERE HIS SOVEREIGNTY—MAGNIFY HIS LORDSHIP—WORSHIP HIM AS THE ONLY AWESOME GOD—not mix up ungodly things in the church (like anybody’s piano or candelabras of history which are gentile customs—when you do those you defile God’s temple)
We had explained these in our writings---
http://www.gentileassembly.org/
Remember that God will remove God’s people if they worship Him in a false way! We should learn who God is!

THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD GIVES YOU JOY!

Fourth month, on the fifth day of the month, --So the day to
fast is from evening of 7th to evening of 8th July 2008.
5th month—
Jer 52:12 --Now in
the fifth month,--- on the tenth
day of the
month -- Nebuzaradan, Nebuzaradan, the captain of the guard, who served the
king of Babylon, came to Jerusalem.-13--He burned the house of the LORD and the
king’s house; all the houses of Jerusalem,-- 16
--Nebuzaradan the
captain of the guard left some of the poor of the land as vinedressers and
farmers.
Eze 20:1-- It came
to pass in the seventh year, in the fifth month, on the tenth day of the month, that
certain of the elders of Israel came to inquire of the LORD, and sat before me.
4--- "Will
you judge them, son of man, will you judge them?
5 - "Say to
them, ‘Thus says the Lord GOD: "On the day when I chose Israel and raised
My hand in an oath to the descendants of the house of Jacob, and made Myself
known to them in the land of Egypt, I raised My hand in an oath to them,
saying, ‘I am the LORD your God.’
7 --"Then I
said to them, ‘Each of you, throw away the abominations which are before his
eyes, and do not defile yourselves with the idols of Egypt. I am the LORD your
God.’
The church split –the poor were separated from the church where the leaders have to be judged! All wrong things have to be judged by the new vinedressers of the vineyards and the workers of the fields who did not go into captivity as they remained faithful unto God by rejecting Bamah worship which the church PCG accepted as recorded in Ezekiel 44: 7.
The remnant of Judah—the Gentile Assembly as the poor among the Israel were left as vinedressers and farmers---and they were made to declare among Israel that the LORD GOD is their God and that the hand of the LORD GOD had taken an oath to save them as HE SAVED THEM FROM THE EGYPTIANS—
Read-------"second exodus part 1-3” -----http://www.gentileassembly.org/
The Revelation 11: 2 Gentile Assembly bring good news to the people of God—THE SPIRITUAL ISRAEL THE TEMPLE WILL BE REBUILT---THAT IS A JOYOUS THING---RECONCILIATION WITH GOD!
SO ON THE FIFTH MONTH FAST AND BE JOYOUS!
5th month---2nd Aug.---31st Aug (Av)
10TH DAY----EVE.10TH TO EVE 11TH
7TH MONTH------
Da 9:25-- The street shall be built again, and the wall, Even in troublesome times.
Jer 33:13 ‘In the cities of the mountains, in the
cities of the lowland, in the cities of the South, in the land of Benjamin, in
the places around Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, the flocks shall again pass
under the hands of Him who counts them,’ says the LORD.---- Lu 15:4
NO MORE ASSYRIANS OR ALIENS IN GOD’S
LAND WHO WILL RUIN THE CHURCH-- Joe 3:17
"So you shall know that I am the LORD your God, Dwelling in Zion My
holy mountain. Then Jerusalem shall be holy, And no aliens shall ever pass
through her again."
LORD GOD WILL AGAIN CHOOSE JERUSALEM—
Zec 1:17
"Again proclaim, saying, ‘Thus says the LORD of hosts: "My
cities shall again spread out through prosperity; The LORD will again comfort
Zion, And will again choose Jerusalem."’"
Zec 2:12
"And the LORD will take possession of Judah as His inheritance in
the Holy Land, and will again choose Jerusalem.
Zec 8:4
"Thus says the LORD of hosts: ‘Old men and old women shall again
sit In the streets of Jerusalem, Each one with his staff in his hand Because of
great age.
Zec 8:15-- So again in these days I am
determined to do good To Jerusalem and to the house of Judah. Do not fear.
Zec 12:6
"In that day ---- Jerusalem shall be inhabited again in her own place––Jerusalem.
Prophecy that God’s people will unite as
one man---IN HISTORY IT HAPPENED AND IT IS A JOYOUS THING TO HAPPEN AGAIN!
7th
month— Ezr 3:1 -And when the seventh month had come, and the children of Israel
were in the cities, the people gathered together as one man to Jerusalem.
Ezr 3:6 -From the first day of the
seventh month they began to offer burnt offerings to the LORD,
Hag 2:1-- In the seventh month,---- 4
‘Yet now be strong, Zerubbabel,’ says the LORD; ‘and be strong, Joshua, son of Jehozadak, the
high priest; and be strong, all you people of the land,’ says the LORD, ‘and work; for I am with
you,’ says the LORD of hosts.
Joshua is admonished to be strong—he has to get the people of
God to return to the LORD GOD!
He has to WORK!
THE LORD GOD IS WITH YOU—GET THE LORD GOD’S STRENGTH AND
RETURN TO GOD! GET THE PEOPLE
Hag 2: 5
‘According to the word that I covenanted with you when you came
out of Egypt, so My Spirit remains among you; do not fear!’
IT IS THE SAME
LORD GOD ---God will
have the same laws and judgments –His Spirit ---His MERCIFUL SPIRIT TOWARDS HIS
PEOPLE ISRAEL WILL BE WITH YOU—
DO NOT FEAR, GOD IS
WITH YOU—the shame you have to bear is temporary (eze.16: 52,54---32: 24,25---44:
13---)
BUT YOU WILL HAVE
DOUBLE PORTION OF HONOUR FOR BEARING THIS SHAME---
Isa 61:7-- Instead of
your shame you shall have double honor, And instead of confusion they shall
rejoice in their portion. Therefore in their land they shall possess double;
Everlasting joy shall be theirs.
Everlasting joy shall be theirs.
The fasts will produce joy! ---everlasting joy!
Read-------"second exodus part
1,-3”---http://www.gentileassembly.org/
Hag 2: 6
"For thus says the LORD of hosts: ‘Once more (it is a little while)
I will shake heaven and earth, the sea and dry land;
(These have
already happened –read ----"second exodus part 1-3”)
7---‘and I will shake all nations, and
they shall come to the Desire of All Nations, and I will fill this temple with
glory,’ says the LORD of hosts.
Desire of all
nations is JERUSALEM—THE TEMPLE OF JERUSALEM WHERE THE LORD GOD WILL DWELL WITH
HIS PEOPLE!
8
‘The silver is Mine, and the gold is Mine,’ says the LORD of hosts.
9
‘The glory of this
latter temple shall be greater than the former,’ says the LORD of hosts.
‘And in this place I will
give peace,’ says the LORD of hosts."
EVERYTHING
SPIRITUAL IS GOD’S –ONE HAS TO WORSHIP THE SPIRITUAL GOD IN TRUTH AND IN
SPIRIT---KNOW THE SPIRITUAL THINGS OF GOD TO WORSHIP HIM!
Joh 4:23
"But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will
worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to
worship Him.
Joh 4:24
"God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit
and truth."
Hag 2: 10 --- On the twenty–fourth
day of the ninth month,--- 17 ‘I struck you with blight and mildew and hail
in all the labors of your hands; yet you did not turn to Me,’ says the LORD.
18 ‘Consider now from this day forward,
from the twenty–fourth day of the ninth month, from the day that the foundation
of the LORD’S temple was laid––consider it:
19---. But from this day I will bless you.’
On a ninth
month God had struck you—a few years ago---but now HE HAS PROMISED TO BLESS
YOU!
AFTER NINTH
MONTH HE WILL BLESS YOU—THEN IT IS THE TENTH MONTH!
10TH MONTH------
FOR THE FOUNDATIONS OF THE SPIRITUAL TEMPLE TO BE
LAID---spiritual matters have to be examined—law and judgments of God have to
be examined—the captives have to examine the faulty matters they are guilty of
and learn the correct ways to worship God---
In history it happened—in Ezra’s time it happened---
10th day----
Ezr 10:16--Then the descendants of the captivity did so.---- ; and they sat down on the first day of the tenth month to examine the matter.
The captives
started examining the matter—that was the good sign!
It will produce
joy in the LORD GOD!
The following
verses shows that the work had borne fruits-----
AFTER THE 10TH---
Zech 1: 7--- On the twenty–fourth day of the
eleventh month,
11--and behold, all the earth is
resting quietly."
16 ‘Therefore thus
says the LORD: "I am returning to Jerusalem with mercy; My house shall be
built in it," says the LORD of hosts, "And a surveyor’s line shall be
stretched out over Jerusalem."’
17--"Again
proclaim, saying, ‘Thus says the LORD of hosts: "My cities shall again
spread out through prosperity; The LORD will again comfort Zion, And will
again choose Jerusalem."’"
That was A prophecy
that earth will rest by eleventh month ---and the LORD GOD will dwell among men
of Israel –
Zech 2: 10 -- "Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion! For behold,
I am coming and I will dwell in your midst," says the LORD.
11 "Many nations shall be joined to the LORD in that day,
and they shall become My people. And I will dwell in your midst. Then you will know that the LORD
of hosts has sent Me to you.
12--"And the LORD
will take possession of
Judah as His inheritance in the Holy Land, and will again choose Jerusalem.
Therefore----10th day----
Ezr 10:16--Then the descendants of the captivity did so.---- ; and they sat down on the first day of the tenth month to examine the matter.
10th Month—28th
Dec---25th Jan (Tivet)
Fast will be from eve. of 27th
to eve of 28th Dec. 2008
THE FASTS OF THE 4TH,
5TH, 7TH, 10TH PRODUCE JOY!
THEY ARE JOYFUL
SPIRITUAL FEASTS!
We learnt from ZECH 8; 19 that FASTS ARE
CHEERFUL FEASTS—
And that we have to Love truth and
peace.
God’s work is the most important work on
earth and God’s chosen people should give the first place to God’s work and
work for it!
They should examine where, how and when
they could do things that please God---
Zec 8:16 --These are the things that ye
shall do; Speak ye every man the truth to his neighbour; execute the
judgment of truth and peace in your gates.
Zec 7:9-- Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying,
Execute true judgment, and shew mercy and compassions every man to his brother:
10-- And
oppress not the widow, nor the fatherless, the stranger, nor the poor; and let
none of you imagine evil against his brother in your heart.
ONE HAS TO CORRECT ALL WRONG THINGS HE HAS DONE—THE CHURCH LEADERS HAVE
OPPRESSED THE POOR, NOT KEPT TRUE JUDGMENTS OF THE LORD GOD –THEY HAVE TO
EXAMINE ALL THESE!
Gal 5:14-- For all the law is fulfilled in one word,
even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
Are these not the spiritual works God requires?
TO FULFILL LAW ---YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF! Then do
it---
We should serve God with a perfect heart ---SEE BELOW
(1 Chron 28:9), with all thy mind (Mat 22:37).
1Ch 28:9-- know thou the God of
thy father, and serve Him with a perfect heart and with a willing mind.
And in this way we will be faithful priests (1 Sam 2:35)
well pleasing to the LORD.
When priests
correct their ways it is to establish the temple of God—temple of Jerusalem
needs faithful priests---the priests must match the standards God is setting
for them!
Fasts above mentioned are Joyous? -----,
We could show God our obedience, then God will make our work powerful (little
one as thousand) ---what a great thing to be able to serve God for the work of
reconciliation with His children (prodigal son came back to the father and it
was such a joyous thing—the eldest son did not understand—but the gentiles and
little sanctuaries know the value of reconciliation—it is a thing to rejoice) ----joyful
as the new covenant will be made – captivity will return, then God’s mercy
should pour upon them—they should be forgiven—we Gentile Assembly and little
sanctuaries should make supplications like David the king of Israel ---these
fasts of gentiles are to prove themselves of their obedience and love to
Christ, the husband of church---
Those who are with Jesus Christ should
intervene to get the rest—the children of God are in a serious trouble—we
should love our neighbors—they are our neighbors even though they are
considering us as enemies—this is even showing love towards your enemy!
Lu 6:35 "But love your enemies, do good, and
lend, hoping for nothing in return; and your reward will be great, and you will
be sons of the Most High. For He is kind to the unthankful and evil.
Mt 5:44 "But I say to you, love your enemies,
Mr 12:31 "And the second, like it, is this: ‘You
shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater
than these."
The Gentile Assembly and little sanctuaries should prove their
priesthood—they should learn to make sacrifices—offer
sin offerings for the sake of Israel –provoke Jesus Christ to establish
Jerusalem–sharing the burden of the LORD GOD –in breaking the Assyrian spirit
among Israel!
They should do the daily and the
continual---God will not be pleased if we just while away our time indulging in
our passions. He will punish—chasten and you will be in trouble!
When you fall into God’s hands it is
fearful if you do not heed to His commands!
Heb 10:31-- It is a fearful thing to
fall into the hands of the living God.
Mr 12:33 "And to love Him with all the heart, with all the understanding,
with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love one’s
neighbor as oneself, is more than all the whole burnt offerings and
sacrifices."
At the same time God will be pleased if
we heed to His commands with all understanding, all the soul and all the
strength!
Consider—not a part—not a percentage—but
with all our might!
We at baptism had promised to do so! Therefore
God expects us to keep to His standards!
Lu 9:62 --But Jesus said to him, "No one, having put his hand to the
plow, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God."
We cannot look back—we shall fall into
the hands of the living LORD GOD! The LORD GOD who sent Jonah into the belly of
the fish can bring us back through a way that will seem very scary to us!
We cannot mock God—he even overthrew the
prophet---
La 2:17----Eze 21:27--- Overthrown,
overthrown, I will make it overthrown!
Hag 2:22-- And I will overthrow the
throne of kingdoms,
Jer 23:5 --Behold, the days come, saith
the LORD, that I will raise unto David a righteous Branch, and a King shall
reign and prosper, and shall execute judgment and justice in the earth.
Jer 23:6 --In His days Judah shall be
saved, and Israel shall dwell safely: and this is His name whereby He shall be
called, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS.
The prophet was overthrown and the LORD
GOD started His work of
Executing judgment and justice in His
temple.
Mr 12:33 "And to love Him with all the heart--
If you love your neighbor as oneself---you are doing even
better than making whole burnt offerings and sacrifices!
You have to get the understanding of God to love Him too!
THESE ARE--Ways to
prove your priesthood—more
than making sacrifices?
Ro 13:10-- Love does
no harm to a neighbor; therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.
Ga 5:14-- For all the
law is fulfilled in one word, even in this: "You shall love your neighbor
as yourself."
Jas 2:8 --If you
really fulfill the royal law according to the Scripture, "You shall love
your neighbor as yourself," you do well;
We ought to correct ourselves!
Joh 13:35 "By this all will know that you are My
disciples, if you have love for one another."
Joh 15:12 "This is My commandment, that you love
one another as I have loved you.
Joh 15:17
"These things I command you, that you love one another.
Ro 15:5-- Now may the God of patience
and comfort grant you to be like–minded toward one another, according to Christ
Jesus,
Ro 15:7 --Therefore receive one another,
just as Christ also received us, to the glory of God.
1Co 12:25 --that there should be no
schism in the body, but that the members should have the same care for one
another.
Ga 5:15-- But if you bite and devour one another, beware
lest you be consumed by one another!
Ga 6:2 -Bear one another‘s burdens, and
so fulfill the law of Christ.
Ga 6:4 --But let each one examine his
own work, and then he will have
rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another.
Eph 4:32 ---And be kind to one another,
tender-hearted, forgiving
one another, just as God in Christ forgave you.
Col 3:13-- bearing with one another, and
forgiving one another, if anyone has a complaint against another; even as
Christ forgave you, so you also must do.
1Th 4:9-- But concerning brotherly love
you have no need that I should write to you, for you yourselves are taught by
God to love one another;
TRUTH AND PEACE
Pray for joy of the LORD GOD to
prevail—true judgments to prevail—Zec 8: 19 ---we should love truth and peace—ARE WE HAVING ANY BITTER ROOTS
OF ANGER WITH ANYONE?
We may examine ourselves as we are
commanded to love peace and truth—without having peace with one another we
cannot have a joyful feast!
Tit 3:3 --For we ourselves were also
once foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures,
living in malice and envy, hateful and hating one another.
Heb 3:13- but exhort one another daily,
while it is called "Today," lest any of you be hardened through the
deceitfulness of sin.
Heb 10:24-- And let us consider one
another in order to stir
up love and good works,
Stir up one another for good works!
Jas 5:16-- Confess your trespasses to
one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed
Confess your faults to one another!
It may be your fault that makes your
brother understand that he also is guilty of the same, but never realised until
you told him!
If you make him realise that he will ask
forgiveness and God will be pleased with you both!
Pray for one another!
SIMILARLY GOD’S CHILDREN ARE IGNORANT OF THEIR SINS UNTIL THEIR EYES ARE OPENED—that is why king David said in Psa. 28, 29—2 Sam 22---that strangers---the foreigners will make supplications for David’s throne----
2Sa 22:45---The foreigners submit to me;
As soon as they hear, they obey me.
When God’s children fall and are in a
pit, not knowing that they are in darkness WE SHOULD PRAY FOR THEM!
One time we were not supposed to pray
for them--- Jer 7:16 "Therefore do
not pray for this people, nor lift up a cry or prayer for them, nor make
intercession to Me; for I will not hear you.
BUT NOW WE SHOULD
PRAY FOR THEIR RETURN FROM THE CAPTIVITY AS IT IS THE WILL OF GOD IS TO
ESTABLICH JERUSALEM!
God knows what we
think—He knows what we have in mind! There are brethren who are openly
criticizing brethren---who are angry with each other- sisters, brothers ---for
the slightest thing they will get upset with each other! –THEIR ANGER IS LIKE
AS IF IT IS PERPETUAL! COULD WE BEHAVE LIKE THAT?
Is that correct? Ask
your selves? Now the judgments of the church were just over—have people
corrected themselves? Are they still doing what they want without correcting
themselves?
ARE THEY SHOWING THEIR
PRIDE TO GOD WITHOUT CORRECTING THEIR FAULTS?
ARE WE GOING TO TAKE
THESE PROBLEMS INTO THE KINGDOM OF GOD? WILL GOD ALLOW SUCH TO COME INTO THE
KINGDOM OF GOD?
Mt 7:21
"Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom
of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.
Mr 10:15
"Assuredly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of
God as a little child will by no means enter it."
Everybody should correct his-self! We
cannot take our anger into the kingdom of God! We all are not perfect—we
have enough things to correct—manifold are our sins—but do we realise that the
time is nigh---at hand?
Suppose we lose our crowns for being
disobedient to Jesus Christ are we going to be joyous?
Heb 12:15-- looking carefully lest
anyone fall short of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up cause
trouble, and by this many become defiled;
Heb 10:26-- For if we
sin wilfully after that we
have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more
sacrifice for sins,
Heb 10:31-- It is a fearful thing to
fall into the hands of the living God.
BE ENCOURAGED---
2Pe 3:11 -- Seeing then that all these
things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy
conversation and godliness,
2Pe 3:14-- Wherefore, beloved, seeing
that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of Him in peace,
without spot, and blameless.
2Jo 1:8-- Look to yourselves, that we
lose not those things which we have wrought, but that we receive a full reward.
Jude 1:20-- But ye, beloved, building up
yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,
GOD’S WILL IS THAT WE ALL BECOME SPIRIT
BEINGS—FULL OF KNOWLEDGE OF GOD SO THAT WE COULD WORSHIP HIM IN SPIRIT AND IN
TRUTH!
Jerusalem will become a praise on
earth—we are joyful in anticipation of the returning of captivity as the LORD
GOD says the bride is ready—Revelation 19: 7
Zech 8: 16-17---we have a high priest
who has Urim and Thummim
--The precious blood of Jesus Christ was
offered as one offering—sin will be wiped off. When sin is eradicated in SECOND
DEATH----the WORLD WILL REAP THE JOY OF THE LORD GOD –THE CHURCH WILL BE A
BLESSING TO THE WHOLE WORLD!
Read---“Alpha and Omega”-----http://www.gentileassembly.org/
JOY TO THE WORLD!
Function as watchmen----upon walls –the
LORD GOD will establish the true Jerusalem –the watchmen have to work—watch
until it is established---we should pray for GOD’S people ---Israel should be
provoked to repent as all Israel had sinned.
Dan—9: 7
Proverbs. 21: 2-3, 15----joy to do
justice—check your strength—proverbs 24: 10,14—rejoice that your enemy will
rise—proverbs. 24: 17
Rebuilding the wicked will make you
delighted—24: 25
When wickedness is removed—throne will
be established in righteousness—proverbs 25: 5
1 Sam 12: 6-8—Moses from Egypt –LORD GOD who
raised Moses and Aaron--- when fathers cried out to the LORD GOD in
Egypt---LORD GOD brought them out.---9-10----when they forgot their LORD GOD he
sold them to Sisera, Philistines, Moabs---then they cried out—
Vs. 11---LORD GOD sent Zerubbabel,
Bedan, Jephthah, Samuel—delivered.
Vs. 12—kings---14, 15, 17—asking a king
in wickedness when the LORD GOD is the king!
PCG wanted a king—Gerald Flurry was the
king—Gerald Flurry claimed so! No other church of God had a king—the leader of
Laodeceans is PCG—they had the king who became proud as the leviathan!
21---do not turn aside—go after empty
things like piano”
23—do not cease praying for them
25—wicked? All will be swept away.
1 Sam 13; 14—LORD GOD SOUGHT A MAN AFTER HIS
OWN HEART AS COMMANDER OVER HIS PEOPLE! David became that man!
Ac 13:22
"And when He had removed him, He raised up for them David as king,
to whom also He gave testimony and said, ‘I have found David the son of Jesse,
a man after My own heart, who will do all My will.’
Ps. 79: 1-4, 8-9----11, 13----Ps. 80:
7-19---revive the vine
–cause your face to shine—Ps. 85: 9 –13----
We should plead with God to cause His
face to shine on His people so that their blind eyes will open!
89: 3-5,7 ----89: 15—joyful sound—96:
7-8-glorify God
98: 4-6—shout joyfully to the LORD GOD.
People of God should not be ashamed to
sing loud and joyfully to the LORD GOD!
Ps.101: 7,8—prayer of the afflicted
102: --in the day of my trouble
LORD GOD’S PEOPLE SHOULD PRAY AND CALL UPON THE LORD GOD IN
THE DAY WHEN THEY HAVE FALLEN INTO DARKNESS—OR PIT! WHEN THEY DO NOT GET
Revelations THEY SHOULD UNDERSTAND!
WHEN THEIR ENEMY HAS TRIUMPHED THEY SHOULD UNDERSTAND AND
CALL UPON THE LORD THEIR GOD!
As we rejoice we have to call upon the
LORD GOD to hear the cry of Israel and answer speedily, those priests of
David’s throne who have sinned should call upon the LORD GOD!!
The gentiles are created as servants of
the LORD GOD to pray and ask God to open the eyes of the prisoners—
Ps.102: 18-22---
“16 When the LORD shall build up Zion,
He shall appear in His glory. 17 He will regard the prayer of the destitute, and not despise their
prayer. 18 This shall be written for the
generation to come: and the people which shall be created shall praise the LORD.
19 For He hath looked down from the height of His sanctuary; from heaven did
the LORD behold the earth; 20 To hear the groaning of the prisoner; to loose those that are
appointed to death; 21 To declare the name of the LORD in Zion, and His
praise in Jerusalem; 22 When the people are gathered together, and the kingdoms,
to serve the LORD.” (Ps 102:16-22 AV)
WHEN THE PEOPLE OTHER THAN ISRAEL SERVE
GOD –HE WILL LISTEN TO THEIR PRAYERS TO HEAR THE GROANING OF THE PRISONERS OF
ISRAEL WHO ARE APPOINTED TO DEATH—THEY WILL BE RELEASED TO BUILD UP Zion!
THE PRAYERS OFFERED DURING THESE FASTS WILL THUS BE JOYOUS
FEASTS TO THE GENTILES AS FRUITS WILL BE BORNE FROM THEIR WORK!
Ps. 103: 1 -- A Psalm of David. 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:-3 Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth
all thy diseases;-4 Who redeemeth thy
life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender
mercies;--5 Who satisfieth thy mouth
with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle’s.--6 -
The LORD executeth righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed.
Eze 16:60 "Nevertheless I will remember My
covenant with you in the days of your youth, and I will establish an
everlasting covenant with you.
“17 But the mercy of the LORD [is] from
everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear him, and His righteousness unto
children’s children; 18 To such as keep His covenant, and to those that
remember His commandments to do them.”
“19 --The LORD hath prepared His throne
in the heavens; and His kingdom ruleth over all. 20 Bless the LORD, ye His
angels, that excel in strength, that do His commandments, hearkening unto the
voice of His word.” (Ps 103:17-20 AV)
WE SHOULD LEARN TO HEARKEN UNTO HIS
WORDS!
Ps. 106: 1-5 ----- “1 Praise ye the
LORD. O give thanks unto the LORD; for [He is] good: for His mercy [endureth]
for ever. 2 Who can utter
the mighty acts of the LORD? [who] can shew forth all His praise? 3 Blessed
[are] they that keep judgment, [and] he that doeth righteousness at all times.
4 Remember me, O LORD, with the favour [that thou bearest unto] thy people: O
visit me with thy salvation; 5 That I may see the good of thy chosen, that I
may rejoice in the gladness of thy nation, that I may glory with thine
inheritance.” (Ps 106:1-5 AV)
GENTILES WHO KEPT GOD’S JUDGMENTS ARE
SHOWING FORTH THE MIGHTY ACTS OF THE LORD GOD –THE LORD GOD WILL VISIT TO SAVE
HIS PEOPLE THROUGH THEIR WORK. THEY SHOW HOW THE LORD GOD WILL ACT!
107:32-- Let them exalt him also in the
congregation of the people,
116: 1-2—I love the LORD, because he
hath heard my voice and my supplications. 2
Because he hath inclined his ear unto me, therefore will I call upon him
as long as I live.
When you fast spiritual fruits bear-AND
YOU CAN REJOICE!
117: 1 ---- O praise the LORD, all ye
nations: praise him, all ye people.---2
For his merciful kindness is great toward us: and the truth of the LORD
endureth for ever. Praise ye the LORD.
115: 9-11“---O Israel, trust thou in the LORD: He [is] their
help and their shield. 10 O house of Aaron, trust in the LORD: He [is] their
help and their shield. 11 Ye that fear the LORD, trust in the LORD: He [is]
their help and their shield.” (Ps 115:9-11
Sacrifices for thanks giving
116: 8-9-17 –
“6 The LORD preserveth the simple: I was
brought low, and He helped me. 7 Return unto thy rest, O my soul; for the LORD
hath dealt bountifully with thee. 8 For thou hast delivered my soul from death,
mine eyes from tears, [and] my feet from falling. 9 I will walk before the LORD
in the land of the living.” (Ps 116:6-9 AV)
16 --O LORD, truly I am thy servant; I
am thy servant, and the son of thine handmaid: thou hast loosed my bonds.
17-- I will offer to thee the sacrifice
of thanksgiving, and will call upon the name of the LORD.
18-- I will pay my vows unto the LORD
now in the presence of all his people,
19-- In the courts of the LORD’S house,
in the midst of thee, O Jerusalem. Praise ye the LORD.
