A Revival from God and its consequences
When Jacob was informed that his son Joseph was yet alive and went
to Egypt to meet him, then he felt great joy. Nevertheless, the truth of
that Joseph was alive brought not only joy. This truth also unveiled
that Joseph's brothers had sold him to the Ishmeelites for twenty
pieces of silver.
So it is also when God sends revival. The revival not only brings joy
and salvation to people. It also causes unpleasant surprises. Old
conflicts of opinion must be cleared up. Sins must be confessed and
forgiven. God knows everything and we cannot hide anything for him.
God is light; in him there is no darkness at all. If we claim to have
fellowship with him yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not put
the truth into practice. If we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we
have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son,
purifies us from every sin. 1 John 1:5-7.
When Jesus comes his Bride must be ready. He cannot return until
his Bride is prepared for Him. The whole Body of Christ must be
ready to meet Jesus. This is such a great thing that every Christian
may be praying for that. If you don't comprehend it so pray to God
and read your Bible until you get clearness. It is not possible that
only take advantage of others' prayers and means that others shall
pray and struggles and clear up everything. You must go into the
struggle and pray yourself throughout to overcome the religious
harlot-being. When God restores the Assembly, then it is in the
first hand an individual and spiritual releasing. Spiritual
powers of evil hold the Christians bound to churches and
denominations and they want to hinder the restoration and
unification of the Assembly, the Body of Christ.
Most of those who are called Christians do not like revival because
they do not walk in the light and they are not willing to hear the
truth regarding the Assembly of God. They can continue to pray for
revival year after year, but the greatest hinder for the revival is
within themselves. They are not willing to wake up! They
themselves want to determine how the revival shall come, and they
want to hear no depreciatory about their own beautiful church. The
revival shall come as a blessing of God and a pleasant message,
and people shall come to their church. They will make membership
cards and welcome new members to their church.
Nevertheless, a revival of God does not come in that way. This last
revival comes to like a head-on collision between God's word and
the religious harlot-being. And God's word shall have powerful
success so that all the Body of Christ be free from the harlot-being.
Still there is power in the blood of Jesus so that also old dry
Pentecostalists can be as new.
We cannot determine what that will happen, or how the revival shall
come. We have to follow God's word. This present time is so seriously
so that we must consider how we have it before God.
Those who have believed on the so-called infant baptism must reject
this false doctrine of the Church and be baptized as the Bible teaches.
And those who have believed that churches and denominations are
assemblies of God, they must acknowledge their mistake and must
leave these harlot-beings. The more proud and stubborn they are,
the more humiliation becomes the revival for them. Pentecostal
preachers which think they are experts regarding the baptism by the
Holy Spirit, they must rectify their sermons so that they agree with
God's word.
Much of what I have written here on my Web Site are such things
that many Christians have never thought of. Why have they not
thought of that? Due to the devil does not like that they think of this,
and therefore he put them to sleep. Therefore, revival is necessary.
They can appear in public, speaking, singing and playing in their
meetings. Yet, this is no proof of spiritual emancipation. Many get
on well with the lukewarm church Christianity and do nothing to be
free. They do not know how bound they are.
They are inviting to their meetings, come to our Church! They are
so quick to speak about fellowship and help in prayer. But
concerning essential things like the Body of Christ, then they
understand nothing. Concerning combatting of the religious harlot-
being, then they cannot help. Then you must struggle alone.
When you ask and expect education, they have only questions as
answer. Instead of getting teaching or information, they begin to
ask about just these things that you need teaching about. When
the Lord gives a wonderful answer on prayer, and you think they
may be happy and praise God, then they are on the contrary.
They only are annoyed and suspicious.
What the apostle Paul writes in Eph. 6:10-18 seems evidently
entirely unreal to them. They continue with their meetings and
"have it so pleasant." It seems as if they are not troubled by the
devil's cunning attacks. They have fall asleep so deep so they are
not even conscious of the struggle that the Bible tells about.
They do not understand that the spiritual powers of evil are
working right into their own meetings!
They are so spiritual blinded and bound by the devil's fetters, so
they cannot think it is possible to live as a Christian without to be
a member in any church or denomination. Though God's word says,
you shall have no other gods besides me, they do not believe that we
can were Christians if we have no idolatry besides the Lord. The
Body of Christ is no church or any organisation, but it is a living
organism constituted of all those who are baptized by the same
Spirit.
