ISAIAH CHAPTER 28

A prelude to Judgment from books

 

INTRODUCTION

In Isaiah chapter 28 God discusses His judgment of a principle of here a little there a little. Our leaders have explained this principle and said that they have used it to teach God’s people. But if you study deeply you notice that God had given such verses from here and there for their fall.  God did this as the leaders erred in their work, exalting themselves and doing a work according to their Judgments not discovering their iniquity. The Righteous LORD GOD knew how to teach and save them from following man, punishing them so that they fall and then be built. He knew how to build David’s throne so that it will continue as God had promised to David and forefathers. These are all awesome things that ONLY THE LORD GOD COULD PERFORM!

 

 

LAMENTATION 2: 14 -- Thy prophets have seen vain and foolish things for thee: and they have not discovered thine iniquity, to turn away thy captivity; but have seen for thee false burdens and causes of banishment. (this is also Isa 28; 7).

THE VERSE SAYS OF LAMENTATION OF CHURCH AS THE LEADERS HAD SEEN VAIN THINGS FOR CHURCH, AND THEY THINK THEY ARE RIGHTEOUS. THEREFORE THEY WERE UNABLE TO DISCOVER THEIR INIQUITY! THEY SHOULD EXAMINE!

THE BOOKS AND ALL LITERATURE THEY WROTE HAD TO BE BUILT UPON “HERE A LITTLE—THERE A LITTLE” PRINCIPLE--

 

“Here a little there a little” principle

Isa 28:10--- For precept must be upon precept, precept upon  precept, Line upon line, line upon line, Here a little, there a little."

The teaching of God’s law, and commands and the plans of God are built upon lines of biblical scriptures-they are found here a little and there a little.

 

BUT THE LORD GOD SAID THE WORDS THEY CHOOSE WILL MAKE THEM BACKWARD—AND SNARED –IT IS FOR THEIR FALL--

 

Isa 28:13 -- But the word of the LORD was to them, "Precept upon precept, precept upon precept, Line upon line, line upon line, Here a little, there a little," That they might go and fall backward, and be broken And snared and caught.

Because their foundations are not correct, to the unbelieving, the lines they choose as God’s words would be for their fall, they will go into captivity.

 

WHO ARE THESE UNBELIEVING WHO WILL END UP IN CAPTIVITY?

Isa 28 explains—vs. 1 -- Woe to the crown of pride, to the drunkards of Ephraim, vs.  2-3---they will be made captive, and be destroyed with a mighty spiritual flood, trampled under foot. Vs. 4—they will eat up the first fruits by absorbing Egyptian and Babylonian ways (Isa 27: 13).

PAGAN HOLIDAYS—PAGE 9—H.W.Armstrong wrote--

Egypt and Babylon

Egypt is a type of sin. As God’s people are today in “Babylon”, and soon are to be delivered after God pours out His plagues upon Babylon, -----.

 

So from H.W.Armstrong’s words –we should know it is God’s people who are in spiritual Babylon and Egypt!

Read—"summary how PCG went to Babylon"---- http://www.gentileassembly.org

 

Isa 28; 5—a small remnant of gentiles who were with PCG escaped and Jesus Christ would do a beautiful work through them to cast out the Egyptian and Babylonian ways of His first fruits----read--

"Remnant Israel or Gentile"---- http://www.gentileassembly.org

 

Vs. 6—the spirit of Judgment will be found in this remnant which will be led by Jesus Christ! The church will be judged and taught of God’s Holy things. By that work the first fruits of spiritual Israel will be turned back –this is the spiritual battle led by Jesus Christ who sits as the king of floods—(Ps. 29: 10)

Vs. 2--Like a flood of mighty waters overflowing, Who will bring them down to the earth with His hand.--- Ps 29:10  The LORD sat enthroned at the Flood, And the LORD sits as King forever.

 

 

Here a little there a little principle applies for the Judgment of church and to bring back the sinners to God’s land. The sinners have gone back to Egypt and Assyria and they should be brought back to the living land of Jesus Christ –FOR THIS David MADE SUPPLICATIONS SO THAT HIS THRONE WOULD CONTINUE—FOR THE PLEA OF David, THE LORD GOD ANSWERED THROUGH THUNDERS AND WATERS (the seven thunders are recorded in Ps. 29)—FLOODS OF SPIRITUAL WATERS will come AS A WAR WHERE JESUS CHRIST SAT AS THE LORD GOD AND KING SO THAT HE WILL BE THE KING FOREVER! 

We had shown these in our writings –read—"Second Exodus parts 1-2"--- http://www.gentileassembly.org

 

 

Vs. 7—WHO HAS ERRED? --- The priest and the prophet have erred through intoxicating drink, They are swallowed up by wine, They are out of the way through intoxicating drink; They err in vision, they stumble in judgment.

 

 

 

THE LORD GOD SPOKE IN SPIRITUAL LANGUAGE AND THEY DID NOT UNDERSTAND—Jesus Christ had to stammer –as they could not understand--

Isa 28: 8-12--No place is clean.-- 9 --"Whom will he teach knowledge?-- 10  For precept must be upon precept-line upon line, Here a little, there a little."—11- For with stammering lips and another tongue He will speak to this people,

12 --To whom He said, "This is the rest with which You may cause the weary to rest," And, "This is the refreshing"; Yet they would not hear.—

 

 

Vs. --8-12-- means that among spiritual Israel no table is prepared for true sacrifices. The LORD GOD spoke to spiritual Israel with another language---THE SPIRITUAL LANGUAGE, but they did not understand—THEREFORE THEY DID NOT HEAR!—so He had to speak with stammering!

 

 

What He tried to tell was HOW TO PREPARE FOR THE ETERNAL REST! The spiritual Israel did not understand the spiritual things of God and stumbled—THEY DID A WRONG WORK BY TRYING TO PROPHESY TO THE WORLD WITHOUT PREAPRING THE BRIDE.

 

 

THUS THEY DID NOT PREPARE FOR ETERNAL REST!

THEIR BOOKS AND ALL LITERATURE TO BUILD THE BRIDE WAS A SNARE AND THROUGH SUCH WRITINGS THEY WOULD BE MADE CAPTIVES—SPIRITUAL CAPTIVES!

 

 

SO THE SPIRITUAL Israel FELL---

Isa 28; 13 -But the word of the LORD was to them, "Precept upon precept, precept upon precept, Line upon line, line upon line, Here a little, there a little," That they might go and fall backward, and be broken And snared and caught.

 

Vs. 14-15—the LORD GOD addresses THE LEADERS OF SPIRITUAL ISRAEL—THE PROPHET AND Regional Directors –ALL ELDERS TO SAY THAT THEY HAVE MADE A COVENANT WITH DEATH AND ARE RELYING ON LIES OF THE LEADERS, NAMELY H.W.Armstrong AND Gerald Flurry!—THE LEADER Gerald Flurry THOUGHT THAT THE OVERFLOWING SCOURGE OF JESUS CHRIST COMING THROUGH THE Gentile assembly WILL NOT COME TO THEM---Gerald Flurry thought God is protecting them in a place of safety!

Read—“covenant of Dan 9:27”---“Ten Horns”—“place of safety” --http://www.gentileassembly.org/

 

 

FOR THE SAKE OF David’s THRONE THE LORD GOD INTERVENED—

VS. 16-- Therefore thus says the Lord GOD: "Behold, I lay in Zion a stone for a foundation, A tried stone, a precious cornerstone, a sure foundation; Whoever believes will not act hastily.

WHEN THE CORNER STONE IS LAID IT IS A SURE FOUNDATION!

 

The word says whoever believes---then--if you believe you should be wise—do not act hastily—do not discard God’s word coming from the heavenly source—understand that people cannot write explaining the words of God without His Revelation! Identify God’s work—quietly accept His teachings—THIS IS THE SAVING WORK OF JESUS CHRIST!

La 3:26 -- It is good that one should hope and wait quietly For the salvation of the LORD.

 

 

A Judgment coming from the LORD GOD--

Isa.28: 17 ---Also I will make justice the measuring line, And righteousness the plummet; The hail will sweep away the refuge of lies, And the waters will overflow the hiding place.

 

Read what is hail in—“HAIL FROM THE HOUSE OF FOREST”---“HAIL”--http://www.gentileassembly.org

 

Jesus Christ would lead the Judgment by making Himself the CORNER STONE—He started Judgment by sending spiritual hail to SWEEP AWAY THE LIES –AND WATERS OF THE FLOOD WILL OVERFLOW THEIR HIDING PLACE—

THE SPIRITUAL WILDERNESS!

 

Isa 28: 18--Your covenant with death will be annulled, And your agreement with Sheol will not stand; When the overflowing scourge passes through, Then you will be trampled down by it.

THUS THE LORD GOD WORKED WITH THE Gentile assembly WHO WERE APPOINTED FOR THE TRAMPLING WORK OF Revelations 11: 2—lamentation 1; 15---AND THEIR COVENANT OF DEATH WILL NOT TAKE PLACE—

 

 

SPIRITUAL Israel WILL LIVE! ALL PRAISE TO THE LORD GOD JESUS CHRIST—

THIS CHAPTER DISCUSSES THE FALL OF SPIRITUAL ISRAEL AND THEIR RISE THROUGH THE SHORT WORK OF JESUS CHRIST THROUGH HIS SERVANTS TODAY—Gentile assembly!

 

 

VS. 19—it will be difficult for the leaders to even understand what the gentiles are sending as the scourge—BECAUSE THEY ARE UNBELIEVING--the articles will come sometimes in the morning—sometimes in the night! BUT IT IS WRITTEN THAT GENTILES WILL BE THE LIGHT OF SPIRITUAL ISRAEL

 

Gerald Flurry recently wrote that Israel will be the light of gentiles—that is wrong—why should he oppose God?

Look at what God has written---

 

Is 60: 3 --The Gentiles shall come to your light, And kings to the brightness of your rising.-- 5 --The wealth of the Gentiles shall come to you.-- 8  "Who are these who fly like a cloud,(they are with the LORD GOD –Ez 30: 3)---- 9 -- Surely the coastlands shall wait for Me; And the ships of Tarshish will come first, To bring your sons from afar,-- 10  "The sons of foreigners shall build up your walls, And their kings shall minister to you; For in My wrath I struck you, But in My favor I have had mercy on you.--- 16  You shall drink the milk of the Gentiles, And milk the breast of kings; You shall know that I, the LORD, am your Savior And your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.

Isa 56---the eunuchs which is our work is described—read—"Flashing Eunuchs preparing the bride" --- “arm of the LORD”-----http://www.gentileassembly.org

 

 

THROUGH THE GENTILE WORK OF Judgment and teaching—spiritual Israel shall know THE LORD GOD!

They will know it is the LORD GOD who shall redeem them!

 

BIBLE IS ADRESSED TO THE FIRST FRUITS, FIRST—

GOD SPEAKS TO THEM—Ps. 147: 18-19

 

 

We had shown in our writings this chapter Isa 28 before and vs. 20 says the leaders will not be able to sleep properly.

 

Vs. 21-22—the LORD GOD will act unusually—to bring to pass all what He had planned to destroy their wickedness—and the people of God should listen to Himthey are in danger-the LORD GOD Jesus Christ wants to save them—they should listen to Him and understand that this work is to save them, by making them understand God’s MOST HOLY things and how the priests should guard and preserve them!

 

The holy things are not---candelabras or chandeliers—you have to build a spiritual house for the LORD GOD to dwell!

1Co 3:16 -Do you not know that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?

1Co 6:19 --Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own?

 

Vs. 24-26—the LORD GOD would not keep plowing—there is an end to this work—AND THE SPIRITUAL ISRAEL WILL BE INSTRUCTED APPROPRIATELY---

26 --For He instructs him in right judgment, His God teaches him.

.

VS. 27-29—THE LORD GOD KNOWS HOW TO TEACH IN DIFFERENT CIRCUMSTANCES---

Different people have different sins—their understanding differs—their spiritual understanding varies—THEN A COUNSELOR SHOULD KNOW THE DIFFERENT CIRCUMSTANCES---therefore a varied teaching should be done to suit all minds—THE ONLY POSSIBLE TEACHER WOULD BE JESUS CHRIST HIMSELF—THEREFORE ---

 

29-This also comes from the LORD of hosts, who is wonderful in counsel and excellent in guidance.

Therefore Jesus Christ first restored the judges and counselors of His choice to get His work done—Isa 1: 26—RE 11: 2.

 

We had written how we Gentile assembly were built in Jer 24, basket of good figs—

1 -- The LORD shewed me, and, behold, two baskets of figs were set before the temple of the LORD, after that Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon had carried away captive Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim king of Judah, and the princes of Judah, with the carpenters and smiths, from Jerusalem, and had brought them to Babylon.

2 --One basket had very good figs, even like the figs that are first ripe: and the other basket had very naughty figs, which could not be eaten, they were so bad.

 

How the end time God’s people came to Babylon is well depicted in the above verse Jer. 24: 1.

 

We had explained in “the two baskets of figs” ---http://www.gentileassembly.org

Eliakim is the name given by king pharaoh to Jehoiakim.

2Ki 23:34 -- Then Pharaoh Necho made Eliakim the son of Josiah king in place of his father Josiah, and changed his name to Jehoiakim.

 

The LORD GOD speaks from the history of Israel, as the LORD GOD is very familiar with His family!

The thing happened in modern times was repeating history. So Gerald Flurry said he is Eliakim and we can be sure that the episode is repeating—then his spiritual son Jeconiah is Alex Harrison who went to Bamah with the carpenters, smiths –they all went to Babylon—the smiths are those who work with silver—through their craftsmanship they produce silver plates—

 

Alex Harrison physically went with some of the Gentile assembly members. Gerald Flurry acknowledged the trip to Bamah –which caused the spiritual harlotry of PCG! We had shown in our writings all details of this abomination and God calls it the “abomination of desolation”.

Read—Bamah matter” –“flashing abomination of desolation”--http://www.gentileassembly.org

 

When this Bamah abomination was done—because of the government structure of PCG it was very difficult to tell the wrong decisions to the leadership—the leaders take decisions and the laymen are speechless—thus our members were unable to do anything at the beginning---as time went on when we knew that it is wrong to get unbaptised ministers to the altar—we kept searching from the bible, and to our amazement we found all particulars of this abomination recorded in the WORD OF GOD! Therefore we stood loyal to God, and waited for His action! The LORD GOD started getting the prophecies to come to pass—when Mrs. Gerald Flurry got the stroke we knew it for sure!

 

THEN WE DID NOT CARE TO BE IN A CHURCH—WE SEPERATED AND GOD BUILT US UP—the two women were grinding and the one was taken! Matthew 24:41—Gentile Assembly was taken!

 

Jer 24 SAYS BOTH THE BASKETS WENT TO Babylon—TO CHALDEA—BUT THE GOOD BASKET WOULD RETURN TO THE LORD GOD--

 

The witnesses of Gentile assembly are given special talents BY GOD—Jer 24: 6 for I will set mine eyes upon them for good, and I will bring them again to this land: and I will build them, and not pull [them] down; and I will plant them, and not pluck [them] up. 7 And I will give them an heart to know me, that I [am] the LORD: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God: for they shall return unto me with their whole heart.” (Jer 24:6-7 AV)

 

THEY ARE THE CRAFTSMEN OF SILVER—THEY ARE SMITHS—vs.1-Jer 24

 

Jer 10: 9  Silver spread into plates is brought from Tarshish, and gold from Uphaz, the work of the workman, and of the hands of the founder: blue and purple is their clothing: they are all the work of cunning men.

THEY GOT THE CLOTHING OF THE MINISTRY. Exodus 28:6,8--Exodus 28:15(for judgment)-- Exodus 39:1--holy garments for Aaron;

 

PSALM 12 EXPLAINS HOW Bamah SIN HAPPENED AND THE RESULT WHAT WOULD HAPPEN THEREAFTER--

Ps. 12: 1 --- A Psalm of David. Help, LORD; for the godly man ceaseth; for the faithful fail from among the children of men. 2 They speak vanity every one with his neighbour: [with] flattering lips [and] with a double heart do they speak. 3 The LORD shall cut off all flattering lips, [and] the tongue that speaketh proud things: 4 Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; our lips [are] our own: who [is] lord over us?

 

5 For the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the needy, now will I arise, saith the LORD; I will set [him] in safety [from him that] puffeth at him.

 

6 The words of the LORD [are] pure words: [as] silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. 7 Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever. 8 The wicked walk on every side, when the vilest men are exalted.” (Ps 12:1-8 AV)

 

THE PEOPLE OF SPIRITUAL Israel SOUGHT THINGS FROM THEIR OWN LIES—SPEAKING PROUD THINGS—they oppressed the poor who stood for God—

But God arose—He set us in safety and built us giving Revelations to build us up—HE PLANTED US AS THE GOOD BASKET OF FIGS—

And as Jer 10:9—12: 6—says He planted us and gave His silver, which are His pure words so that the Tarshish would become the light of spiritual Israel!

 

Gentile times came along with Jesus Christ’s DAY OF THE LORD GOD recorded in Ez 30; 3—He established the gentiles of Revelations 11: 2-14 to serve Him during the day of the LORD GOD!

 

 

Isaiah 29—is addressed to Ariel—David’s city--I will distress Ariel--I will encamp against you all around,-- 4  You shall be brought down, You shall speak out of the ground; Your speech shall be low, out of the dust;-- 6  You will be punished by the LORD of hosts With thunder and earthquake and great noise, With storm and tempest And the flame of devouring fire.

 

ALL THESE PUNISHMENTS ARE COMING FROM GOD TO SPIRITUAL ISRAEL THROUGH THE NOISE OF THE GENTILES! THIS IS THE WORK ORDAINED BY THE ALMIGHTY LORD GOD!

 

SO CONFIRM THAT THE PUNISHMENTS AND TRIBULATION IS FOR THE SPIRITUAL ISRAEL LEADERS!

 

All our writings are built upon precept upon precept, line upon line –from here a little, there a little which built and planted us!

 

ALL PRAISE TO THE LORD GOD WHO DOES A MARVELOUS WORK UPON HIS CHOSEN TO SAVE THEM. BE IT SO. AMEN.
