COMMUNION


FEBRUARY 2, 2002



Unto the Church of God and all who are called to be saints of Christ: All Hail: Is it well with thee?: I am well in the communion of the Holy Ghost. I pray that all men be of love, and comfort, and grace. For the communion of Christ, is out with the old, and in with the new. So as we partake of this holy communion, let our past life be buried with the death of the old man: for in Christ Jesus are all things made new. For as it is written: “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new” (II Corinthians 5:17): so be it.



So I ask you my brethren, Why do men dig up my past life: a life I have not kept secret from you, but have revealed since the beginning. For is it not written in the testimony of the Son of man, that, I said, It took me 4 years to be cleansed from the filthiness of my ways before I could begin my ministry? So why do men bring back the sins of my past, other than because they have become frustrated in their new investigation, because they can find no spot or wrinkle in me. Was I not worthy when I went before them in 1997? Verily I was: for if I was not, I would not have been sent. Surely the Lord sent me before them in sin, that they would be a witness to the Lord lifting me up from out of sin. For the glory of God is not the purification of the righteous, but the redemption of a sinner. Indeed if they investigated my private life the first time when I stood before them only; surely they have investigated my life again now that I stand before the world and make their place uncomfortable with my testimony. But in their frustration, they bring forth an old report, of a man that no longer hold a place in this vessel, that they might tarnish my leadership.


If there be a sinner this morning that partake of this communion, which the Lord Jesus Christ so commanded: he is no longer a sinner, but a new man, with an unblemished life. Thus, if there be any that should bring to remembrance the past sins of that new man, they have falsely accused, even bared false witness. What then is their judgment? So let the record of every man’s wrong doing be buried with his old life, that the love of God be manifested in him. And let no man mistake the sanctity of holiness: for holiness in flesh is found in the sincerity of our heart. It is the sincerity of our heart that moves us to cleanse ourselves from the ways of flesh, that holiness be perfected. For it is surely written: “HAVING therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God” (II Corinthians 7:1). So let us know that we must cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit: not only the filth of flesh, but the spirit also. Know then, that the communion of unleavened bread and water is for the purification of the flesh and spirit. But unless the heart be of sincerity, a man eat and drink unworthily: not because he is in sin; but because his heart is not sincere in coming out of sin. I pray no man be found unworthily eating of his bread and drinking from his cup: for he that eat and drink unworthily, eat and drink damnation for himself. Thus eat not, neither drink ye, from the Lord’s table, until you are baptized in the Spirit of Truth. For only then are you worthy to partake of Christ body and blood, which we eat and drink in remembrance of him.


Now let us open our Holy Bibles this Sabbath to I Corinthians 11:23-32: and let us Read and Hear the word that has already been spoken: “For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, That the Lord Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed took bread: And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.


After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me. For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord’s death till he come. Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord. But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup. For he that that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord’s body. For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep. For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged. But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world”.


So brethren and saints: Are we not worthy to partake of the bread and water that is the body and blood of Christ? So then: we shall not be condemned with the world. But those who eat and drink unworthily, are they not guilty of the blood of Christ, to drink the blood of Christ as the Great Whore drink the blood of the saints? Let none look upon my words, but the word of the Lord, for reproof and correction, as it is for doctrine and instruction of righteousness. Such is why I am sent, as Jesus was sent in the Scriptures, that men might know the word I speak is authentic. Yet, even as him, I am found without honor among my own people. So be it: but I am not without honor; neither glory. For I eat and drink from the table of our Lord and Master in worthiness: and in the lordship of his name. I break the bread that is his body, and drink from the cup that is his blood, that I show the Lord’s death till he come. For with communion I give life to life and death to death: let those of life receive life; and those of death receive death.


Hear these words I pray, that were spoken by the apostle Paul in the ancient of days, but pertain even in these days, as do all the Scriptures: “I speak as to wise men; judge ye what I say. The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, it is not the communion of the body of Christ? For we being many are one bread, and one body: for we are all partakers of that one bread.


Behold Israel after the flesh: are not they which eat of the sacrifices partakers of the altar? What say I then? that the idol is any thing, or that which is offered in sacrifice to idols is any thing? But I say, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have fellowship with devils. Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord’s table, and of the table of devils” (I Corinthians 10:15-21).


The word is written, and the word is said: You cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: you cannot partake of the Lord’s table, and the table of the devil. Yet, there are many that try. And try they do, but not succeed, because such is impossible. Surely, they deceive themselves by thinking they can deceive God. So of the table that they eat and drink in the name of the Lord, is it not a snare, and an illusion: for the Lord is not found in hypocrites.


We who are true in the Lord, are upright and holy in our communion. For the bread we eat is sincerity and truth: and the cup we drink is everlasting life. For our communion is with the Holy Ghost, whose body and blood is Christ. So we eat the bread of unleavened, and drink the cup of water, in remembrance of our Lord Jesus Christ, that by our flesh we be bonded in him, as we are bonded in spirit. Let no man come unto the Lord halfway: for he that be wrong, let him do correction, that he may find a safe place. For the Almighty God has spoken unto you, as He spoke unto you in days past. What then can be your excuse, when the truth has already been written before you? For was not the Passover feast the first communion (St. Matthew 26:26-29)? And is it not the bread of unleavened (I Corinthians 5:7-8)? And is not the cup of his blood, now water (St. John 19:34)? So let us know the true ingredients of the Lord’s table, that we no longer eat from the table that is a trap.


Brethren of mine: we know that light has no communion with darkness: What then is communion, but true fellowship in Christ. In true fellowship, which come only by the acceptance of the truth, do we break bread from the table of the Lord. Let no man be deceived: for there is a table in the name of the Lord, but not of the Lord. This is the table whose spirit is error, and hypocrisy, and ignorance, and foolishness. This is a table of snare devised by the Opposers of Truth; a table like unto the words of David: “ Let their table become a snare before them: and that which should have been for their welfare, let it become a trap. Let their eyes be darkened, that they see not; and make their lions continually to shake. Pour out thine indignation upon them, and let thy wrathful anger take hold of them. Let their habitation be desolate; and let none dwell in their tents. For they persecute him whom thou hast smitten; and they talk to the grief of those whom thou hast wounded. Add iniquity unto their iniquity: and let them not come into thy righteousness. Let them be blotted out of the book of the living, and not be written with the righteous” (Psalms 69:22-28).


The people that David spoke of: are they not today both Jews and Gentiles? Surely, I have been denied my place among the children of the prophet Crowdy, even among the various sects of Jews that be. What table then do they eat from, when they deny me, whom Christ himself has sent?


Nevertheless, all things that be must be: for we cannot change the regeneration, which is the resurrection of the ancient of days. But despite the ignorance in Israel, the Lord God has not cast away His people. For it is surely written: “God hath not cast away his people which he foreknew. Wot ye not what the scripture saith of Elias? how he maketh intercession to God against Israel, saying, Lord, they have killed thy prophets, and digged down thine altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life. But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to the image of Baal” (Romans 11:2-4).


Thus, the Lord God of Israel has reserved unto Himself seven thousand men out of all the millions of Jews, that they be resurrected of life unto this day. These are those who hear the voice of Truth because their souls dwell in the knowledge of the truth. Their seed is resurrected upon the earth to multiply into the 144,000; and into the souls of them that shall be slain for the gospel of Christ. But the remnant of them in Israel, are surely as it is written in Romans 11:7-10: “Israel hath not obtained that which he seeketh for; but the election hath obtained it, and the rest were blinded (According as it is written, God hath given them the spirit of slumber, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear;) unto this day. And David saith, Let their table be made a snare, and a trap, and a stumblingblock, and a recompence unto them: Let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see, and bow down their back always”.


So let us know why Israel has denied me, and why they hate me without a cause. For they have eyes, but cannot see: and ears, but cannot hear: because they are cursed with the spirit of slumber. So I cry out loud in the thunder of the Lord, so the worthy among them might be awaken from their slumber, that the grace of Jesus Christ might open their eyes to see and ears to hear. For the Lord God of Israel is a Merciful God, that in our stumble, we do not appear to fall (even though we fell), because of His grace bestowed upon us.


But in our fall, which by grace was made a stumble, salvation came unto the Gentiles; not that the Gentiles would replace the Jews; but that the Jews would be provoked to jealousy (Romans 11:11). But in the ignorance of our fathers whose seed and faces we bare, we became as Gentiles, to serve idols, and to eat from the table of the devil, who has set his table in the name of the Lord; a table the world has come to know as Christianity. Indeed if the Lord God had not reserved seven thousand men of Israel unto Himself, all of Israel would be condemned. How merciful then is the Lord our God? How great is His loving kindness? Let us rejoice in the love that the Lord our God has reserved for the children of Jacob (Israel): for by His love and mercy are we kept from falling; and presented faultless before the presence of His glory.


O saints of the Most High God: I thank the Lord our God today, as I do each day, for loving me, even in my ignorance. Let us all thank God: for He alone is our redeemer. Let us give praise unto His Holy Name always: for what purpose are we made alive, other than because of His love for us. So let our praise and worship be unto Him, whose grace has restored the seed of Israel, to lift us out from the jaws of the unknown.


Let me preach a little longer this Sabbath morning, because my Spirit is on high. Thus, I speak these words as they are written in the book of Romans 10:1-21: “BRETHREN, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved. For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge. For they being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God. For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth. For Moses describeth the righteousness which is of the law, That the man which doeth those things shall live by them. But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above: ) Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.) But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.


How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher? And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!


But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Esaias saith, Lord, who hath believed our report? So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. But I say, Have they not heard? Yes verily, their sound went into all the earth, and their words unto the ends of the world. But I say, Did not Israel know? First Moses saith, I will provoke you to jealousy by them that are no people, and by a foolish nation I will anger you. But Esaias is very bold, and saith, I was found of them that sought me not: I was made manifest unto them that asked not after me. But to Israel he saith, All day long I have stretched forth my hands unto a disobedient and gainsaying people”.


As it was in the ancient of days, so is it in the modern of days, that Israel has turned a deaf ear to the word of the Lord, to be a disobedient and gainsaying people. Why then should they be saved? If not for the promise to Abraham, that led the Almighty to reserve seven thousand men to the resurrection of life, we would be dead as a nation, and as a race. But in our resurrection of life, which came by the faith and works of Abraham, we are grateful to be alive, that our obedience is made known to the Lord, in that we do all things in remembrance of Christ.


So we, the holy children of God, partake of our heavenly calling with the bread of our life and the water of our supplication: fearing the Lord our God and keeping His commandments, as it is the whole duty of man (Ecclesiastes 12:13).


I pray for us all in the salvation that is God; and in the glory that is His Christ. And let our communion be with the Root of Israel: for by Christ the Lord, the Rock of Israel, are all souls called to salvation. And let the sick and shut-in partake of this holy communion with the assistance that come from the fellowship of our brotherhood in Christ. And let the elderly partake of this holy communion with the assistance that come from the fellowship of our brotherhood in Christ. And let none be omitted from this holy communion except he that omit himself: for even in his ignorance he has the sense not to eat from the Lord’s table unworthily. So condemn no man for not abiding as we do: for he has condemned himself already.


Let the twelve holy apostles be gathered before me in their own time: for even they must adjust to their existence in flesh: which is to overcome the fear of stepping out against the beast, and doubt, and the lack of confidence. This challenge must they also hold: for no man is given the crown of life without first overcoming the challenge of human flesh.


Now before I leave you this Holy Sabbath day, let every ear in the world be opened, that none might have an excuse; for such is why I am sent to preach the gospel on the world wide web. So let us hear the words I speak in the spirit of our brother Paul: “I told you before, and fortell you, as if I were present, the second time; and being absent now I write to them which heretofore have sinned, and to all other, that, if I come again, I will not spare: Since ye seek a proof of Christ speaking in me, which to you-ward is not weak, but is mighty in you. For though he was crucified through weakness, yet he liveth by the power of God. For we also are weak in him, but we shall live with him by the power of God toward you. Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates? But I trust that ye shall know that we are not reprobates.


Now I pray to God that ye do no evil; not that we should appear approved, but that ye should do that which is honest, though we be as reprobates. For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth. For we are glad, when we are weak, and ye are strong: and this also we wish, even your perfection. Therefore I write these things being absent, lest being present I should use sharpness, according to the power which the Lord hath given me to edification, and not to destruction.


Finally, brethren, farewell. Be perfect, be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace shall be with you.


Greet one another with an holy kiss. All the saints salute you. The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen”(II Corinthians 13:2-14).


O holy men of Israel, even us, who have partaken of this heavenly calling, are we not redeemed from reprobates? For is it not written, that, all the people said to Pilate when he washed his hands, saying, “I am innocent of this just person: see ye to it” (St. Matthew 27:24): they said, “His blood be on us, and on our children” (St. Matthew 27:25). So be it then that we all are cursed of sinful flesh, to be angels of God born on the earth in the flesh of reprobates. But though we were born in the flesh of a reprobate, to do the things of a reprobate, we are redeemed by the grace of Christ, whose communion is the Holy Ghost. So we were as reprobates; but now we are not; but able and worthy ministers of God in the Spirit of Truth. For though we come from out of sinful flesh, we are perfected in our holiness by our remembrance and obedience of God’s commandments.


Now in closing: of all the things I have spoken this Sabbath, this is the sum: If you cannot see me for who I say I am; and cannot hear the Voice of Truth from my mouth; know then that you are one of the many that God has cursed to have eyes yet cannot see, and ears yet cannot hear. Therefore, fall on your knees with a sincere heart of repentance: and partake of his holy communion as it is so written by the Spirit of Truth on the message board of the Church of God. And your eyes shall be opened to see; and your ears to hear. For all souls are given a chance for redemption, that no soul might have an excuse.


Let us pray: “Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy, To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen” (Jude 24-25).

THE SECOND TESTIMONY


JANUARY 26, 2002


Unto the Church of God and all who are sanctified in our Lord and Master Jesus Christ: All Hail: Is it well with thee?: I am well in the House of the Lord. Peace and Blessings be unto you: and much Love. May the only wise God, our Lord and Savior, embrace you with the tenderness of His heart. May He heal you with the comfort of His hand. May His lips salute you in the Holiness of His presence. May His face shine upon you all the days of your life. I send greetings unto you all, in the grace and charity of His Holy Name.


WE, the holy children of God, called from out of our places, to stand before the glory of His truth; have put away all envy, and jealousy, and selfishness, that was our flesh. For we are renewed in the Spirit that is Christ, to stand in the oneness that is Christ. For though we are angels sent from heaven, we walk as humans walk in flesh, to know the ways of flesh, that we might shed the life of flesh and overcome the world as our Lord and Master overcame the world. Bear not the rotten fruit of our mortal birth: for we were born of flesh not to live as flesh, but to know the way of flesh, that we might save others. Let none think that the Spirit is without flesh on the earth. For if Jesus was not like us, how then could we be like him? And if we are like Jesus, then are we not the glory that is Christ, who even as the Son is appointed God? What great mystery is there of God; but to know why He created Satan? Do we not know, that, Satan was not created as a rival, but so that God could challenge Himself? I pray you understand: for good and evil is a game; as life and death is a game. For how can there be a rival to the Almighty, who has created all things? I pray that no man be left in the dark, so hear me as I recite these words from the book of Job: “And the LORD said unto Satan, From whence comest thou? And Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it. And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil? and still he holdeth fast his integrity, although thou movedst me against him, to destroy him without cause. And Satan answered the LORD, and said, Skin for skin, yea, all that a man hath will he give for his life. But put forth thine hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh, and he will curse thee to thy face. And the LORD said unto Satan, Behold, he is in thine hand; but save his life” (Job 2:2-6). Know therefore without doubt: Satan exists because God is challenging Himself: for there is truly an opposite side to everytthing.


Brethren of mine: I pray for you always, as I pray for all the saints. Let the communion of the Holy Ghost be held among you each Sabbath day, beginning with the first Sabbath in the month of February: and let the communion be unleavened bread and water for the blood and body of Christ. And let the bread be the bread of sincerity and truth: and let the water be the water of life. And let those that were baptized with the water from earth; be baptized again with the spirit and water that I bring. And let the water be the washing of their feet: and the spirit the breath of the Holy Ghost. Who then is worthy to wash the feet of a saint: and to breath the Holy Ghost into his forehead? With the power that is invested in me, from the Lord Himself, I say this: There be none worthy save the keepers of this testimony. For if you hold the title of a priest, or a bishop, or a minister, even a deacon, you are not; unless you preach the testimony I hold in my right hand. For I am given the power and authority to strip all men and make them naked before the Spirit of Truth, that they be clothed in the Spirit of Truth, or left naked in the ignorance and foolishness that is reserved for the blackness of darkness forever.


I tell you this thing, and the thing be certain: There are no ministers of God on the earth save those that walk with the Lamb’s book of life. For all others, the Lord knows them not, because they are not of the Lord. For time is at hand: for the day has come. And the Lord has set His true tabernacle before men. And none can enter save the true and the holy.


Now we who are called to walk in the likeness of our Christ: let us open our Holy Bibles this Sabbath to Isaiah 33: 2-22: and let us Read and Hear: “O LORD, be gracious unto us; we have waited for thee: be thou their arm every morning, our salvation also in the time of trouble. At the noise of the tumult the people fled; at the lifting up of thyself the nations were scattered. And your spoil shall be gathered like the gathering of the caterpillar: as the running to and fro of locusts shall he run upon them.


The LORD is exalted; for he dwelleth on high: he hath filled Zion with judgment and righteousness. And wisdom and knowledge shall be the stability of thy times, and the strength of salvation: the fear of the LORD is his treasure.


Behold, their valiant ones shall cry without: the ambassadors of peace shall weep bitterly. The highways lie waste, the wayfaring man ceaseth: he hath broken the covenant, he hath despised the cities, he regardeth no man. The earth mourneth and languisheth: Lebanon is ashamed and hew down: Sharon is like a wilderness; and Bashan and Carmel shake off their fruits.


Now will I rise, saith the Lord; now will I be exalted; now will I lift up myself. Ye shall conceive chaff, ye shall bring forth stubble: your breath, as fire, shall devour you. And the people shall be as the burnings of lime: as thorns cut up shall they be burned in the fire.


Hear, ye that are far off, what I have done; and, ye that are near, acknowledge my might. The sinners in Zion are afraid; fearfulness hath surprised the hypocrites. Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?


He that walketh righteously, and speaketh uprightly; he that desiseth the gain of oppressions, that shaketh his hands from holding of bribes, that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood, and shutteth his eyes from seeing evil; He shall dwell on high: his place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks: bread shall be given him; his waters shall be sure. Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty: they shall behold the land that is very far off. Thine heart shall meditate terror. Where is the scribe? where is the receiver? where is he that counted the towers?


Thou shalt not see a fierce people, a people of a deeper speech than thou canst perceive; of a stammering tongue, that thou canst not understand. Look upon Zion, the city of our solemnities: thine eyes shall see Jerusalem a quiet habitation, a tabernacle that shall not be taken down; not one of the stakes thereof shall ever be removed, neither shall any of the cords thereof be broken. But there the glorious LORD will be unto us a place of broad rivers and streams; wherein shall go no galley with oars, neither shall gallant ship pass thereby. For the LORD is our judge, the LORD is our lawgiver, the LORD is our king; he will save us”.


I Cornelius, give this testimony for Jesus Christ, in the Spirit of Prophecy, that prophecy be fulfilled. For as the things of righteousness must be fulfilled; so also must the things of unrighteousness. So let us hear the Scriptures that I recite this day in the hour of the regeneration: “BEHOLD, a king shall reign in righteousness, and princes shall rule in judgment. And a man shall be as an hiding place from the wind, and a covert from the tempest; as rivers of water in a dry place, as the shadow of a great rock in a weary land. And the eyes of them that see shall not be dim, and the ears of them that hear shall hearken. The heart also of the rash shall understand knowledge, and the tongue of stammers shall be ready to speak plainly. The vile person shall be no more called liberal, nor the churl said to be bountiful. For the vile person will speak villany, and his heart will work iniquity, to practise hypocrisy, and to utter error against the LORD, to make empty the soul of the hungry, and he will cause the drink of the thirsty to fail. The instruments also of the churl are evil: he deviseth wicked devices to destroy the poor with lying words, even when the needy speaketh right. But the liberal deviseth liberal things; and by liberal things shall he stand.


Rise up, ye women that are at ease; hear my voice, ye careless daughters; give ear unto my speech. Many days and years shall ye be troubled, ye careless women: for the vintage shall fail, the gathering shall not come. Tremble, ye women that are at ease; be troubled, ye careless ones: strip you, and make you bare, and gird sackcloth upon your loins” (Isaiah 32:1-11).


Thus, the Lord speaks not to the men only, but to the women also. Thus, let a woman be as a wholesome man in the Lord: for all are called before the judgment seat of Christ.


I pray that all men and women hear the voice of Truth, that they bathe themselves in the Spirit of Truth, that none be found standing before the Lord without the knowledge of the truth. For it is better to have not known, than to know, and not do. It is better to not have heard, than to hear, and ignore.


O children of the earth, I pray for you all, that your eyes might see, and your ears might hear, the testimony we bring for Jesus Christ in the Spirit of Prophecy. I beseech you all, to avoid sin, and put away all idols, that you be upright in the way of the Lord. For if you stay in the way of the Gentiles, who know not the Lord, but are the souls of them that are evil, and naive, and ignorant, and foolish: then what can you be but like unto them: to grow worse and worse with each generation; deceiving others while being deceived themselves. I pray. Be not like them that are written in St. Matthew 7: 22-23; for they worship in false hope, that even their prayers are in vain.


O children of Jacob, I pray for you earnestly, because for your sake was Christ, the Holy One of Israel sent. Thus hear me, I pray, on this day which the Lord our God has made, as I recite these words from I Chronicles: “Give thanks unto the LORD, call upon his name, make known his deeds among the people. Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him, talk ye of all his wondrous works. Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the LORD.


Seek the LORD and his strength, seek his face continually. Remember his marvelous works that he hath done, his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth; O ye seed of Israel his servant, ye children of Jacob, his chosen ones.


He is the Lord our God; his judgments are in all the earth. Be ye mindful always of his covenant; the word which he commanded to a thousand generations; Even of the covenant which he made with Abraham, and of his oath unto Isaac; And hath confirmed the same to Jacob for a law, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant, Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance; When ye were but few, even a few, and strangers in it. And when they went from nation to nation, and from one kingdom to another people; He suffered no man to do them wrong: yea, he reproved kings for their sakes, Saying, Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm.


Sing unto the LORD, all the earth; shew forth from day to day his salvation. Declare his glory among the heathen: his marvelous works among all nations. For great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised: he also is to be feared above all gods. For all the gods of the people are idols: but the LORD made the heavens. Glory and honour are in his presence; strength and gladness are in his place. Give unto the LORD, ye kindreds of the people, give unto the LORD glory and strength. Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name: bring an offering, and come before him: worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness. Fear before him, all the earth: the world also shall be stable, that it be not moved.


Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice: and let men say among the nations, The LORD reigneth.


Let the sea roar, and the fullness thereof: let the fields rejoice, and all that is therein. Then shall the trees of the wood sing out at the presence of the LORD, because he cometh to judge the earth.


O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good; for his mercy endureth for ever. And say ye, Save us, O God of our salvation, and gather us together, and deliver us from the heathen, that we may give thanks to thy holy name, and glory in thy praise.


Blessed be the LORD God of Israel for ever and ever. And all the people said, Amen, and praised the LORD” (I Chronicles 16:8-36).


O children of the Most High: you who have partaken of this heavenly calling: I pray for you all, and bless you all, in the name of our Lord and Master. I Cornelius, your brethren and your fellow servant, whose Spirit is sent down from the throne of God, to deliver unto you His holy word, that all the saints be gathered: speak as it is written, and I pray you hear: “Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution. But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived. But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them; 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.
All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works” (II Timothy 3:12-17).


Yea, if you have known the Scriptures as a child (though in their youth some were unaware because their spirit was dormant; because all men are not called at the same time), then are you not resurrected from the life that is Christ? I speak in the boundary that is the Scriptures, with the direct testimony of Jesus Christ as the head, to give the only profitable doctrine, with reproof, correction, and instruction, in righteousness. Yet, many who claim to uphold the Scriptures have hid themselves from my testimony, in prayer that I go away. But I shall not: till I have fulfilled the days of my testimony for Jesus Christ in the Spirit of Prophecy. I bless you all: and leave you all with these Scriptures till I come before you again next Sabbath: “Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints; And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel, For which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak” (Ephesians 6: 11-20).


Indeed, I have spoken those Scriptures in a past sermon; but I speak them again and again for the sake of the new ear that has entered the Church of God in search of the truth. I send them peace and love with faith, mercy and blessings from the only wise God, our Lord and Savior. Grace be unto all who love our Lord and Master Jesus Christ in the sincerity that is bonded in truth. Amen.

PATIENCE

PATIENCE


JANUARY 19,2002


Unto the Church of God and all who are called to be Saints of Christ: All Hail: Is it well with thee?: I am well in the patience of my longsuffering: for it be the fruit of the Spirit. May the Lord our God heal the sick and shut-in: and comfort those in need.


My brothers and sisters in Christ: I, even I, if I allow my actions to be controlled by my existence as flesh, I would faint, and fall among the many that have fainted along the way. Surely nothing can precede what the flesh feels: thus be wholesome in Spirit, that your being be spiritual, and the weakness of flesh shall be strengthened.


As I sit in the sanctuary of the Most High; reflecting and meditating on my life as an existence of flesh and as a spiritual being: enduring the many years without; and the abundance of suffering: I remember the suffering of our Lord Jesus; knowing his suffering was much greater. Who then am I to complain? For if I seek the salvation of Christ, I must suffer as Christ suffered (I Peter 2: 21). For on what ground can I be a joint-heir, without being made worthy, which is to endure unto the end (St. Matthew 24:13). And as it is written: “Better is the end of a thing than the beginning thereof: and the patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit” (Ecclesiastes 7: 8); so is it. Moreover, Jesus said: “But that on the good ground are they, which in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit with patience” (St. Luke 8:15). Indeed, if we are to be perfect as Christ is perfect, then we must be patient (James 1:4).


My brethren: Men can call me crazy every second of every day; yet I shall not stop the work of my priesthood; neither lose patience on the Lord. For in the priesthood of Jesus Christ, I have learned to rejoice in patience, and in hope, and in the things to come. I have learned because I am made Christ-like; as all who enter the sanctuary of truth. “Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place. For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ, in them that are saved, and in them that perish: To the one we are the savour of death unto death; and to the other the savour of life unto life. And who is sufficient for these things? For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ” (II Corinthians 2:14-17). So I ask, Who are those which are many that corrupt the word of God? Are they not convincing in their words; speaking in a humble and loving manner; with the love of God as their theme? Bear witness to some of them, which continue to post on the message board of the Church of God, as if they know the love and way of Christ. Why do they oppose my teachings, yet hover over my sermons each Sabbath? Are they not patiently waiting to deceive a soul that has entered the Church of God in search of the truth? Know therefore, that as the children of God are called to patience, so is the children of the devil. For as it is written: “For among my people are found wicked men: they lay wait, as he that setteth snares; they set a trap, they catch men” (Jeremiah 5:26); so is it. So let us beware: especially the new ear in search of the truth. For there be many speaking with intelligent words; even with Scriptures; but without logic and sense which is truth.


Now let us open our Holy Bibles this Sabbath to Romans 15:1-7: and let us Read and Hear: “WE then that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves. Let every one of us please his neighbor for his good to edification. For even Christ pleased not himself: but, as it is written, The reproaches of them that reproached thee fell on me. For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.


Now the God of patience and consolation grant you to be likeminded one toward another according to Christ Jesus: That ye may with one mind and one mouth glorify God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. Wherefore receive ye one another, as Christ also received us to the glory of God”.


So if we know the truth, then we can easily receive one another, because the truth dwells in our heart and soul, that even if the words be unheard, the spirit of the words are felt. So let there be no excuse: for we that worship in spirit and in truth, wait on the Lord in the knowledge of the truth. And in our patience: we love our enemy, and do good to them that hate us, and bless them that curse us, and pray for them that despitefully use us; that we increase their suffering in hell.


Now I say this to all men in Christ, that they all might hear: He that be a high priest among you is also your lord: as Christ is his Lord. Thus, Is Ysmael not a high priest to many as I am a high priest to all who are on the earth? Verily he be: so know then that Ysmael is the lord of all Levites; as I am lord of all men on the earth.


Now I know those words have instantly troubled some; that they are thinking that I am exalting myself as Christ. But let none be mistaken: for though we are lords and masters as the twelve holy apostles are lords and masters: our Lord and Master is Christ. I pray you understand and be not confused in your patience, that you be not led away. So I speak again, in my patience, for the sake of the new ear: If we are gods (Psalms 82:6), then are we not lords also? Thus, I recite these words from the mouth of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you might know I am not confused, or have misinterpreted: “Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods? If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken” (St. John 10:34-35). So as we are gods indeed, we are lords indeed; thus judges indeed. For is it not written, that, the saints shall judge the world?


Now give an ear, that you might hear, as I recite these words from our Lord Jesus Christ: “And ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their lord, when he will return from the wedding; that when he cometh and knocketh, they may open unto him immediately. Blessed are those servants, whom the lord when he cometh shall find watching: verily I say unto you, that he shall gird himself, and make them to sit down to meat, and will come forth and serve them. And if he shall come in the second watch, or come in the third watch, and find them so, blessed are those servants. And this know, that if the goodman of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched, and not have suffered his house to be broken through. Be ye therefore ready also: for the Son of man cometh at an hour when ye think not” (St. Luke 12:36-40). So I pray you understand the testimony at hand, that you might keep watch: for the life of Christ begin and end with the Church of God. And if the life of Christ is everlasting, what then is the Church of God?


Now though I be a god indeed; and a lord, and a master, (because I am a son of God); even the Son of man: call me not such. For though a disciple is not above his master, nor a servant above his lord (St. Matthew 10:24): a disciple is like his master; and a servant is like his lord (St. Matthew 10:25). For I am but the first among equals in the earth: as Ysmael is the first among equals in the tribe of Levi. And let the patience of the tribe of Levi be known: and the patience of the tribe of Reuben: and the patience of the tribe of Gad: and the patience of the tribe of Aser: and the patience of the tribe of Nephthalim: and the patience of the tribe of Manasses: and the patience of the tribe of Simeon: and the patience of the tribe of Issachar: and the patience of the tribe of Zabulon: and the patience of the tribe of Joseph: and the patience of the tribe of Benjamin: and the patience of the tribe of Judah whose seed I am. For we have waited thousands of years to be restored to that from which we fell. We have waited patiently knowing ourselves when the world knew us not. And though we are scattered about, into various sects, we have not forgotten our heritage. And though we are scattered about, into various lands, we shall be brought together into one land, and one place, which is holy and protected by the Lord our God.


I cry out this Sabbath to you O holy children of Israel: for to you am I sent first; that in my patience I gather the twelve holy apostles whose spirits has descended from out of the throne of God to be a high priest for the tribe of their soul. I call out to them, that they hear my voice, and give me their fleshly name. For in the Spirit I know them: but in the flesh we are strangers. But when they hear my call, they know me, and respond immediately; as Ysmael and Anthony Lea responded immediately.


So my precious children of Israel: know that Ysmael in his patience is set as a high priest of the Levites: and that Anthony Lea in his patience is called to tribe of Benjamin: and that in my patience I seek the remnant of the holy apostles. These are those who have no doubt; neither is any guile found in them. For not one of them shall betray, neither deny. For these are selected from the holiest of saints: and the most worthy of men. And they shall lead their tribes into the glory that is Christ, when they are found, and sanctified, and baptized in the Spirit of Truth, to take their place as a high priest.


We, the holy men of God, who are called in the patience of God, to bring forth our testimony for Jesus Christ in the Spirit of Prophecy, come forth with a message from the God of patience. And if a man speaks against the messenger, it shall be forgiven, because the messenger is not Christ. But a man cannot speak against the message and be forgiven: because the message is Christ. So keep silent and search the Scriptures before you speak, that you do not condemn yourself: for many have opened up their mouths boldly against the message, which is the Holy Ghost. And whosoever speak against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven; in this world, neither in the world to come (St. Matthew 12:32). So keep silent and search the Scriptures before you speak against us: for in our patience we will not count you as an enemy; but love and admonish you as a brother; that you might come into the knowledge of the truth. For we shall turn the other cheek, but only once in our patience; because wisdom must always overshadow love.


Now, many have surely turned their back to us; and closed their ears to us? Dismissing the message that we bring as a figment of our imagination. Some of these are those that in their places would have shorten the days of our patience, if they had not turned from us, for fear of being removed from their place. Do they not know that their place is not their own, but servitude for the message of Christ? Verily, my days of patience must be longer than they should be, because the church of my fleshly baptism has denied me my seat: and the influential men among us are protectors of Christianity: and my brother Edom will not allow me to pass through his borders that my days might be shorten. Surely I come before him as Moses came before him, in peace and brotherhood, that my journey be shorten. But as Moses was turned away, so am I turned away. But discouraged I am not: because the regeneration is the repeat of things from the past. Moreover, is it not written, that as it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be in the days of the Son of man? Surely the Scriptures cannot be changed: for the Son of man must first suffer many things and be rejected of this generation; then shall the end come (St. Luke 17:22-25). So we must fulfill the days of our patience; and continue in our longsuffering. For patience is a virtue: because patience is God. Moreover, what did our Lord and Master say: “Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you from their company, and shall reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man’s sake. Rejoice ye in that day, and leap for joy: for, behold, your reward is great in heaven: for in the like manner did their fathers unto the prophets” (St. Luke 6:22-23).


My brothers and sisters: Since the age of 20, I have served God without wavering in the knowledge of the truth: spending nine long years without any employment: trusting in the Lord to provide: believing in the things that I could not touch. For 22 years I ministered on the down low; being ignored and dismissed by many; only revealing myself to a few. Even then I learned that I am raised as an example of faith and patience: for without faith there can be no patience. I am raised to endure all tribulations; and to escape every temptation. I am raised poor and made rich; not in wealth as I was poor in wealth; but rich in the knowledge of the truth. I am made rich, that I might make others rich. For in the beginning of my ministry, I am made worthy to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honor, and glory, and blessing, as it is written (Revelation 5:1-12). My power is to bring forth the Lamb’s book of life: and my riches is the knowledge of life: and my wisdom is Christ: and my strength is to endure: and my honor is my work: and my glory is my sacrifice: and my blessing is eternal life. O saints of Christ: I pray for you all: and salute you all in the true doctrine of Jesus Christ.


My brothers and sisters in Jesus Christ: Surely you have heard the patience of Job: but I tell you also of the patience of Noah and all the prophets. Do you not know that Christ is the Spirit that kept Noah, and Job, and all the prophets in their patience? So what is patience without faith? And what is faith without Christ? I tell you this, and the thing be certain: There is no faith and patience without Christ. For without Christ in the soul of your heart, even your prayers are in vain.


We, the holy men of God, are called in our faith and patience; because we are made worthy. Thus to all who are called, I recite these words: “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. He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint” (Isaiah 40:28-31).


So let the old that be among us worry not: for in your patience you shall not be weary, neither shall you faint. For the Lord shall give you His hand and His strength: and you shall run and not be weary: and you shall walk and not faint. But the young and strong that love the world: they shall become weary in their strength; and faint in their youth. These things shall surely be, saith the Lord.


O saints of the Beloved and Most High God: Hear me I pray, as I recite these words from II Corinthians 6:1-10: “WE then, as workers together with him, beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain. (For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)


Giving no offence in any thing, that the ministry be not blamed: But in all things approving ourselves as the ministers of God, in much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses, In stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labours, in watchings, in fastings; By pureness, by knowledge, by longsuffering, by kindness, by the Holy Ghost, by love unfeigned, By the word of truth, by the power of God, by the armour of righteousness on the right hand and on the left, By honour and dishonour, by evil report and good report: as deceivers, and yet true; As unknown, and yet well known; as dying, and, behold, we live; as chastened, and not killed; As sorrowful, yet alway rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing all things”.


My brethren: I can speak no words greater than the words that are already written: so I pray you read and hear the Scriptures. And as I leave you this Holy Sabbath of the Lord our God, I bless and anoint you with the holy oil of gladness in the house of the Lord. And I recite these words of wisdom from our Lord and Master Jesus Christ: “In your patience possess ye your souls” (St. Luke 21:19). And let the people say, Amen. And let one say, So be it.

SHOULD WE LOVE OUR ENEMY?

JANUARY 12, 2002


Unto the Church of God and all who are called to be saints of Christ: All Hail: Is it well with thee?: I am well in my love for my neighbor and my enemy. May the Lord our God bless even them that hate me, and seek to persecute me. For all who be in Jesus Christ are persecuted; and glorified by the shedding of their blood for Christ sake.


Surely unless I love my enemy, I cannot please God. But I ask you my brothers and sisters, Where is the logic in loving your enemy? Why should I do good to those that hate me? Let us see: Jesus said, “Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so? Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect” (St. Matthew 5:43-48).


So I ask you again: Where is the logic in loving your enemy? Evil exists for a purpose given by God: and good prevails over evil when you do good despite the evil that is done to you. So if I show love to my enemy, will he not be confounded by my actions? So love your enemies, and bless them that curse you, and do good to them that hate you: but know this thing: Wisdom overshadows love (Proverbs 28:26). For Jesus did say, “Whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also” (St. Matthew 5:39). But what should I do if he slaps the other? Should I give him the first cheek to slap again? If I do, where is the logic? When I give all that I can give in meekness and in love, what then should be my recourse, but wisdom overshadowing love. For did not our Lord Jesus say, “Wisdom is justified of her children” (St. Matthew 11:19)?


Let us be wise in all things and we shall understand the word of Christ. For it is written, Jesus walked in Galilee, but would not walk in Jewry, because the Jews sought to kill him (St. John 7:1). Was that not his wisdom overshadowing his love? And did Jesus not say to his disciples: “Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves” (St. Matthew 10:16). What then is the wisdom of a serpent?


Some find it difficult to believe that we should love our enemies: but if we love in wisdom then we will understand the meaning behind the words.


Some believe that Jesus changed the laws of Moses: but he that have an ear let him hear: for I speak to reveal a mystery: for it is written: “Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled” (St. Matthew 5:17-18). So according to the testimony of Jesus, not one jot or one title of the law has passed away, because heaven and earth has not passed. So Jesus did not change the law of Moses as some believe, but brought understanding to the law.


Some believe that turning the other cheek is in direct contradiction with an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth (Exodus 21:24). And some believe that Moses taught to love your neighbor, but hate your enemy.


First, an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth is relative to justified punishment for breaking the law (reaping what you sow): but turning the other the cheek is forgiving the injustice done to you. So they are not the same. Jesus did not change the law, but brought forth understanding, which brought forth reformation. For example: Under the law a sinner was put to death by the hand of the people; but how could the death of a sinner by the hand of people who are also sinners be justified? Such is why Jesus said, “He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her” (St. John 8:7). And when he spoke those words, her accusers left, because of their own conscience.


Now what about loving your enemies, and blessing them that curse you, and doing good to them that hate you, and praying for them that despitefully use you and persecute you? Many believe that those words spoken by Jesus in St. Matthew 5:43-44, were added to the bible by agents of Satan, to maintain ignorance and foolishness among the believers of Christ. But such is not true: for the Holy Bible has not been tampered. Surely Jesus taught the same laws of Moses: For it is written in the book of Moses: “If thou meet thine enemy’s ox or his ass going astray, thou shalt surely bring it back to him again. If thou see the ass of him that hateth thee lying under his burden, and wouldest forbear to help him, thou shalt surely help with him” (Exodus 23:4-5). Hence, Jesus preached according to the law that already was? Thus, perfect is indeed loving your neighbor and your enemy: for it is written: “Rejoice not when thine enemy falleth, and let not thine heart be glad when he stumbleth: Lest the LORD see it, and it displease him, and he turn away his wrath from him” (Proverbs 24:17-18).


Now the questions becomes, Why would God want us to show love to the devil? Where is the logic? Here is the wisdom: “If thine enemy be hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he be thirsty, give him water to drink: For thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head, and the LORD shall reward thee” (Proverbs 25:21-22). Thus, the logic of loving your enemy, is to increase his suffering in hell.


I say this thing: Show love to your enemies and those that hate you and they shall not know why: because they see with the eyes of actuality: but you see with the eyes of reality. In reality their future and end is hell: your future and end is heaven. So love your enemy, and bless them that curse you, and do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you: for in doing such you add coals of fire upon their head. Their punishment is made greater; and their days in hell longer. But in all things, let wisdom overshadow love.


But in the Messianic Age, will we love our enemy as we love our neighbor? Nay: for it is written in the law of the Messianic Age, which is found in the Lamb’s book of life, that, we will love our neighbor and hate our enemy as we hate sin. And if a man should say that the Lamb’s book of life I hold in my right hand contradicts the testimony of Jesus; saying, Jesus does not hate; and do not kill. Let us see: For is it not written in red letters, thus being the direct testimony of Jesus Christ: “But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaitanes, which I also hate” (Revelation 2:6). And did he not say: “And I will kill her children with death” (Revelation 2:23). And did he not say, “Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled” (St. Matthew 5:18). Surely then, there shall be new laws in the Messianic Age: and where there is new laws also new Scriptures.


Of little do ye know of Jesus: Remember when he said to his disciples, I have many things to tell you, but you cannot bear them now. These mysteries and secrets have been revealed in the Lamb’s book of life, which is the last will and testament of Christ. But let no man think that the Old Testament and the New Testament shall pass way: for it surely shall not: because the Old Testament is the Father; and the New Testament is the Son; and the Lamb’s book of life is the Holy Ghost.


Now men say that my coming was not prophesied: but my coming was spoken directly from the mouth of Jesus Christ. For it is surely written: “I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come” (St. John 16:12-13). Am I not the Spirit of Truth? Have I not guided you into all truth? I am who I am, whether you believe it or not. Those that are resurrected of life, know me: but those that are resurrected of death, hate me: and those resurrected by the Spirit of grace, are called to know me.



It is written: “The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished” (II Peter 2:9). So let us not be tempted to hate our enemy, that we put a stain on our perfection. But let us love our enemy until the day of final judgment, that we may add coals of fire upon his head in the lake of fire. And as it is written, so shall it be: “The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death” (I Corinthians 15:26).


Now of the things I have spoken this Sabbath this is the sum: Love your enemy as you love your neighbor with wisdom overshadowing love when need be. For in our priesthood, we are not called to foolishness, but understanding and wisdom. I pray you understand the meaning behind the wisdom of my words: for I will heap coals of fire upon the head of my enemy with goodness to him; but I am foolish in my priesthood to waste time instructing him. For my enemy is my enemy: such will not change. So I avoid my enemy; but if I encounter him I will give to him as I give to a neighbor; because such is the doing of perfect. But after I give all that I can give, then must wisdom overshadow love. For here is wisdom: There is a limit to forgiveness and mercy; because love has a limit; because wisdom must over shadow love. Hence, there is no limit to how many one can love; but there is a limit to how much one can love.


Should we love our enemy? It is spoken best in the book of Ecclesiastes: “TO everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away; A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace” (Ecclesiastes 3:1-8).


May the Lord God Almighty stretch forth His Holy hand and heal the sick and shut-in: and may He comfort those in need with the bosom of His embrace. Amen.

THE HIGH PRIEST


JANUARY 5, 2002


Unto the Church of God and all who are called to be saints of Christ: All Hail: Is it well with thee?: I am well in my priesthood, which is bestowed upon every man that come into the Spirit of Truth.


I Cornelius, one of the sons of God from among the Hebrews, and the Muslims, and the Rastafarians, and the Gentiles in Christ: come before you this Sabbath as I come before you each Sabbath in the Spirit of the High Priest, our Lord Jesus Christ, who has sent down the Spirit of Truth, to gather us together in unison into the oneness of his body, which is his church, and the temple of God. I pray that all men put away the things they had been taught: and in the wisdom of their spirit discern the knowledge that I bring, which come first by the Spirit of Christ, that their eyes become open to the obvious; then by the Scriptures; then by the pages of history.


Indeed, one of the most difficult things on earth for men to do is to repent from their spiritual beliefs, which are many. It takes a great man to humble himself to admit when he is wrong in his understanding of things: to acknowledge his ignorance in the midst of his wisdom. The stumbling block before him is pride and the ego of pride.


Some say only Jesus Christ himself can correct them: But how would they know Jesus Christ from George W. Bush, if they do not know the testimony of Jesus Christ according to that which is already written? It is obvious that the world is confused over the Scriptures when God is not the author of confusion (I Corinthians 14:33). So why is there confusion over that which is obvious? Surely the culprit is within them: they have confused themselves by seeking to justify their own understanding. They have confused themselves by not using the senses to discern both good and evil: knowing the spirit of truth from the spirit of error.


I beseech you my brothers and sisters to lean not into your own understanding: and to put away the thoughts that claim the Authorized King James version of the Holy Bible has been tampered: for all versions except that one has indeed been tampered. And if I man should ask how do I know the Authorized King James version has not been tampered? I say unto that man, I Cornelius, being a Jew, come before you with the Authorized King James version of the Holy Bible, which was “Translated out of the Original Tongues and with the Former Translations diligently compared and revised”, that the untarnished Word of God be made known to men. I use this same bible that men claim promote Christianity, but obviously do not, when you look at the Scriptures with open eyes. What greater sign is there before the eyes of men that the God of the Bible is, when the rulers of this world despise Him, yet cannot remove His Holy Word from the earth. Surely there are various versions of the Holy Bible that exist upon the earth, that men have tampered to suit their beliefs. But God is Almighty to keep the purity of His word prevalent among men. But though they have the undefiled word of God before them, they still defile themselves by not seeing the obvious, and by believing that man can change the word of God.


I Cornelius, a Jew of the extreme, come in every word of the Holy Bible (The Authorized King James Version); chiefly, with the testimony of Jesus above all things. For I bring no different bible, neither any new Scriptures though I have the power to bring forth the Lamb’s book of life, whose fruit brings forth new Scriptures and laws. Yet I set that book aside for now, that you may know I am the word of God according to that which has already been written; and that I am sent down from the throne of God to fulfill the prophecy of the Scriptures at hand. So why call me vulgar and vile names: saying, that, I am crazy and confused? Show me where I am wrong according to the testimony of Jesus: Show me where I am wrong according to the Scriptures: Show me where I am wrong according to the pages of History: Show me where I am wrong according to the Dictionary.


Men cannot refute my testimony according to the testimony that is written of our Lord Jesus Christ, so who am I? And if you cannot refute my testimony, why would you not hear me, to obey my voice? Surely you should know that my voice is not my own, but the Truth of God.


Is it not written, that no man know the Father except the Son, and whosoever the Son reveal Him unto (St. Matthew 11:27)? Has not our Lord revealed the secrets and mysteries of God, as well as the obvious to me? Am I not the fulfilling of prophecy that you be the fulfilling of prophecy? If the gospel of Christ was first preached to the Jews in the days of Jesus, then would it not also be preached first to the Jews in the regeneration? Are these days not the regeneration of our High Priest, “who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens” (Hebrews 7:26).


My holy brethren: We who are partakers of this heavenly calling, to be ministers of God before the High Priest of our profession, to enter into his rest, as we dwell within his body. Let us know that we are sanctified by the Truth of his name and ordained by the Spirit of his truth, that we be made high priests, after the order of Jesus Christ. So let us be worthy that we stand with our flesh and spirit cleansed from all filthiness: perfecting our holiness in the fear of God. Let us not be high-minded: but keen in knowing the spirit of truth and the spirit of error. Let us not be ashamed of our patience; neither of the word that we speak.


O men of Israel: Let us open our Holy Bibles this Sabbath to Hebrews 5: 1-14: and let us Read and Hear: “FOR every high priest taken from among men is ordained for men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins: Who can have compassion on the ignorant, and on them that are out of the way; for that he himself also is compassed with infirmity. And by reason hereof he ought, as for the people, so also for himself, to offer for sins. And no man taketh this honour unto himself, but he that is called of God, as was Aaron.


So also Christ glorified not himself to be made an high priest; but he that said unto him, Thou art my Son, to day have I begotten thee. As he saith also in another place, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec. Who in the days of his flesh, when he had offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto him that was able to save him from death, and was heard in that he feared; Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered; And being made perfect, be became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him; Called of God an high priest after the order of Melchisedec. Of whom we have many things to say, and hard to be uttered, seeing ye are dull of hearing. For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat. For every one that useth milk is unskillful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe. But strong meat belongeth to them that are full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil”.


My brethren: We are made high priests after the order of Jesus Christ, who is made an high priest after the order of Melchizedek. Thus, let us know the secret of the Holy Trinity: The Father whose Spirit in flesh was Melchizedek; and the Son whose Spirit in flesh was Jesus; and the Holy Ghost whose Spirit in flesh is us. For we are given the Holy Ghost as a gift from God, that we be sons and daughters of God. And if we are the children of God, then we are love for another, even to the stranger in the midst.


My brothers and sisters in Christ: We that be of the so-called black race, and the so-called white race, and the Asian, and the Indian, and the Spanish, and the Arab, and the African: I say unto you all, The seed of eternal salvation is for you all. For in the body of Christ there is the flesh of all men that are upon the face of the earth; so let no race of people be omitted from entering the Church of God. But let them that be in sin find no safe place; because the body of our high priest is separate from sinners (Hebrews 7:26).


I beseech you all to repent of your sins; beginning with the sin of not obeying the testimony of our high priest, Jesus Christ. For what you know as Christianity, is the road to hell that is paved with good intentions. Thus, know that your biggest sin is the ignorance of not knowing Christ testimony, which keeps you from receiving the knowledge of the truth. Therefore become you as a baby, that you may drink the milk of God’s word, and begin life anew. For what you thought you knew, you did not know. Thus, be humble, and free of sinful pride, that you turn from the spirit of error to enter the sanctuary of truth. For the flesh of all men, and women, and children, are called to the love of God, which is the body of His Christ, which is the testimony of His word. So let the ignorance of an unbeliever be cast out from within you, that you be not misled by the spirit of error, but guided by the spirit of truth. For if all flesh were not members of Christ body, then all flesh would not be called. But all flesh are called: the flesh the earth call a black man and a white man; the Arab; the Asian; the Indian; the Spanish; and the African. All seeds are called to the body of Christ and made into one blood. So be it that we are brothers and sisters in spirit; and neighbors in flesh.


My brethren: the holy men of Israel: I Cornelius, am sent in the regeneration as a high priest after the order of Jesus Christ, to gather the twelve tribes of Israel first, even the twelve holy apostles of the Lamb. For even as all flesh are called to the body of Christ, the body of Christ is still Hebrew, and Israel, and Jew. So in the spirit of the regeneration I speak to the twelve as Jesus spoke to the twelve: “Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not: But go rather to the lost sheep of Israel” (St. Matthew 10:5-6). And in the spirit of the regeneration, I speak as Jesus spoke: “I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel” (St. Matthew 15:24). So that no man be mistaken, I am sent first to the most ignorant; the Temple Bethel: then to the church of my baptism as an existence of flesh: then to the scattered seed of Israel: then to be a light for the Gentiles, that they might be saved as we are saved in the Spirit of grace. So let the light of truth shine: and let men stand in that light which cometh from the soul of Christ, which is the root of Israel. And if any be offended, so be it: for I am not sent to please your sinful thoughts; and to ease the disobedience of your ways. I am not sent as Paul, to be an apostle of the Gentiles; but as a high priest of the New Testament; to preach by the letter, which kill, because the letter is judgment: for time is at hand. I am sent that prophecy be fulfilled, and the kingdom of Israel restored. I go no more to the Temple Bethel, neither to the church of prophet Crowdy; but to the true house of Israel, which is scattered abroad in various places. For if you be a Jew by birth, but disobedient by nature, then you are not a Jew. But if you are a Gentile by birth, and obedient to the gospel, then you are a Jew by nature. But is a Gentile who is a Jew by nature a Jew? Nay: for a Jew is nature and birth: but the Gentile is a saint as a Jew be a saint; and is sealed in everlasting life as a Jew that has not lost the savor of his salt is sealed in everlasting life.


My brethren: the true and holy men of Israel: We have a High Priest, the Son of God, who has ordained us as priests of the Most High God; because in the kingdom of God every man is a priest. Let us be worthy of our profession, that we be as him: holy, harmless, undefiled, and separate from sinners. I pray: Let us be worthy of our profession, and continue in our profession, with patience and meekness in the glory of his name.


O holy men of Israel: Hear these words, I pray, which I recite this day from the book of Hebrews: “And having an high priest over the house of God; Let us draw near with true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.


Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;) And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: 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. For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.


He that despised Moses’ law died without mercy under two or three witnesses: Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace?” (Hebrews 10:21-29).


What mercy shall there be for those who draw back unto perdition? For if men that despised the law of Moses died without mercy, what shall be the end of those that fall back into sin after being redeemed by the Spirit of grace? Are they not despisers of Christ priesthood?


We who partake of this heavenly calling, to be anointed as high priests after the order of our Lord Jesus Christ, are steadfast and un-moveable in our holiness. Surely no man can come to Christ except he come to be a priest: for what is righteousness in Christ but that of his priesthood.


My Hebrew brothers: you that know yourself; and you that be among the Muslims, and the Rastafarians, and the Christians: I speak these words for you only, as they are written in the book of I Peter: “WHEREFORE laying aside all malice, and all guile, and hypocrisies, and envies, and all evil speakings, As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby: If so be ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious. To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious, Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.


Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded. Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner, And a stone of stumbling, and rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed.


But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvelous light:” (I Peter 2:1-9).


Dearly beloved children of Israel and ardent priests of the Lord: I give my satisfaction to the glory of your name, whose name is written on HIGH. For you are surely a peculiar people, even the salt of the earth. And in the sanctum of our profession, we give our heart and soul to our high priest, Jesus Christ, that we be found without blemish and without spot, that we may enter the sanctum sanctorum of the true tabernacle, which is not made with man’s hand, but seen only with the spiritual eye of truth. Thus be holy as he that has called you is holy: and faithful as he that has called you is faithful. For the kingdom of God come without observation: and what man can stand there save a priest of the true tabernacle. For the time of the reformation of the tabernacle is at hand: And as it is written: “But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building” (Hebrews 9:11); so be it.


Now of the things which I have spoken this Sabbath this is the sum: “We have such an high priest, who is set on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens; A minister of the sanctuary, and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, and not man” (Hebrews 8:1-2). And let the people say,Amen.

RESTORATION


DECEMBER 29, 2001



Unto the Church of God and Saints of Christ: All Hail: Is it well with thee?: I am well in my restoration by the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. May we continue to love him as he loves us, in all our comings and goings. I greet you all, every one of you, with a holy kiss upon the lips, as it is our custom. And let no man be sensitive to a another man’s touch but wise to his intent: And let no woman feel defiled by the lips of a man that is not her husband: for it be the custom of the Church to greet one another with a kiss on the lips. For the hour of restoration is at hand: thus let the customs and ways of our Lord be restored among us in all our comings and goings.


My brothers and sisters: Gracious is our Lord Jesus Christ, the head of our Church, who has restored our soul, and gave us his body as a dwelling place. Let the Church of our God, and of His Christ, be restored among the lost sheep of Israel, in the purity of which it began.


I beseech you my brothers and sisters to avoid sin, and the lust and seduction of this world; even the influence of unclean thoughts. For we are the chosen vessels of God, whose spirits are sent down from the throne of Christ, to glorify his name and manifest his works upon the earth. And though we are not seen going door to door, or preaching in the streets: we are in our houses, and in the houses of our neighbors, and our friends; feeding the word of God daily to all who come in to eat. Let us not be weary in our labor for Christ, neither lose our patience as a saint. For if we fail in our conviction, how shall the wicked see the righteous works of Christ?


Let us bring restoration to ourselves as worthy vessels to hold the Spirit of Truth, that in all our work, all things of Christ be restored on the earth. For we are not called to be servants: but joint-heirs: and adopted sons and daughters of God. Are we not then, the children of righteousness? So who is able to stand against us if we faint not?


O men of Israel: Let us prepare ourselves for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, that we be seen by him without spot or wrinkle, and with the holy oil of his gladness. I pray for us O holy men of Israel: and for our wives, and sons, and daughters. I pray for the Hebrew, and the Israelite, and the Jew that is in us. Bless it be the Lord our God, the Rock and Holy One of Israel: how great is He, the Almighty, our Redeemer and Deliverer. Praise be His Name; and Glory; and Honor: for He is sanctified above all things: the Creator and Keeper of Life and Death: the Most High God is He.


O men of Israel: You that be among my congregation and you that be not: Hear these words I pray: for I speak with the same Spirit that was given in the ancient of days: “The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified his Son Jesus; whom ye delivered up, and denied him in the presence of Pilate, when he was determined to let him go.


But ye denied the Holy One and the Just, and desired a murderer to be granted unto you; And killed the Prince of life, whom God hath raised from the dead; whereof we are witnesses.


And his name through faith in his name hath made this man strong, whom ye see and know: yea, the faith which is by him hath given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all.


And now, brethren, I wot that through ignorance ye did it, as did also your rulers. But those things, which God before had shewed by the mouth of all his prophets, that Christ should suffer, he hath so fulfilled. Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord; And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you: Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began. For Moses truly said unto the fathers, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear in all things whatsoever he shall say unto you. And it shall come to pass, that every soul, which will not hear that prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people. Yea, and all the prophets from Samuel and those that follow after, as many as have spoken, have likewise foretold of these days.


Ye are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying unto Abraham, And in thy seed shall all the kindreds of the earth be blessed. Unto you first God, having raised up his Son Jesus, sent him to bless you, in turning away every one of you from his iniquities” (Acts 3:13-26). Let us therefore be restored in the Spirit of our Christ, whom we love, because he has loved us. Thus, let us put away our ignorance that led us to deny the Holy One and the Just in the ancient of days, that we do not re-live our ignorance in the regeneration. Let us put away the ignorance that keep from us from embracing the remembrance of our heritage, that we no longer be unknown. Let us put away this ignorance that has cast us down to walk as defiled Gentiles, and as Jews without Christ; that we be not led away as Esau was led away; and condemned as Esau is condemned (Obadiah 18).


Let all hidden knowledge be revealed, and all spiritual truth known, that the restoration be complete. For I am sent to restore all things, beginning with the testimony of Jesus, which is the gathering of the tribes of Israel. Hear me, I pray, and listen closely: For the seed of Esau, the twin of Jacob, is found in the regeneration as the seed of the black Muslim in America. I say this not with judgment my brothers: but because it be the truth. Did not Esau, the twin of Jacob, leave the presence of Hebrews, to be among Ishmael, the progenitor of the Arabs? I speak these words not to bring strife between my Muslim brothers and I: but to let them know from whence they came. Therefore I say this, that their place be restored: Repent: and return to that from which you came: for the name of Minister Louis Farrakhan is great in heaven, as the name of Elijah Muhammed is great in heaven, and Malcolm X. For we are born of the same root, which is Isaac, the pure seed of Abraham.


I pray my Muslim brothers: Be not as the seed of Esau (Edom), who would not allow Moses to pass through his borders as a shortcut to the Promised Land; but came out against the children of Israel with a strong hand (Numbers 20: 18-21).


I speak these words not to alienate you my Muslim brothers: for we are twins of the same heritage and have been restored as joint-heirs by the grace of Christ. But I cannot speak the truth and leave out parts of the truth: because the truth from my mouth is not in part. So give an ear and you shall hear the history of Esau, who is Edom, the father of the Edomites.


Let us open our Holy Bibles this Sabbath to Genesis 25: 19-34: and let us Read and Hear: “And these are the generations of Isaac, Abraham’s son: Abraham begat Isaac: And Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah to wife, the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian of Padanaram, the sister to Laban the Syrian. And Isaac intreated the LORD for his wife, because she was barren: and the LORD was intreated of him, and Rebekah his wife conceived. And the children struggled together within her; and said, If it be so, why am I thus? And she went to inquire of the LORD. And the LORD said unto her, Two nations are in thy womb, and two manner of people shall be separated from thy bowels; and the one people shall be stronger than the other people; and the elder shall serve the younger.


And when her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb. And the first came out red, all over like an hairy garment; and they called his name Esau. And after that came his brother out, and his hand took hold on Esau’s heel; and his name was called Jacob: and Isaac was threescore years old when she bare them.


And the boys grew: and Esau was a cunning hunter, a man of the field; and Jacob was a plain man, dwelling in tents. And Isaac loved Esau, because he did eat of his venison: but Rebekah loved Jacob.


And Jacob sod pottage: and Esau came from the field, and he was faint: And Esau said to Jacob, Feed me, I pray thee, with that same red pottage; for I am faint: therefore was his name called Edom.


And Jacob said, Sell me this day thy birthright. And Esau said, Behold, I am at the point to die: and what profit shall this birthright do to me? And Jacob said, Swear to me this day; and he sware unto him: and he sold his birthright unto Jacob. Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentils; and he did eat and drink, and rose up, and went his way: thus Esau despised his birthright”.


So we know by those Scriptures that Jacob was jealous of his brother because of what he thought was Esau birthright; and because his father loved Esau more.


Now it also came to pass that Jacob with the help of his mother stole the blessing that Isaac intended for Esau (Genesis 27:1-29). How I ask, Could these two things that were done by Jacob against Esau, even against his father, be justified? Here is the wisdom of the story between Jacob and Esau: The end justifies the means if the end is righteous. For it was told unto Rebekah by the Lord Himself that the elder was to serve the younger (Genesis 25:23): and the younger was Jacob (Genesis 25:26). Therefore, Jacob received the blessing (Genesis 27:26-29) according to that which the Lord had pre-set. So let us know, that, some things that appear to be sin and wickedness by the naked eye is not; because the end justifies the means if the end is righteous. The means Jacob used to receive his blessing was to the naked eye a lie and deceit. But the end of his actions resulted in righteousness, because God Himself had told his mother that the elder was to serve the younger. Surely if Jacob had been truly wicked in the eyes of God, he would not have been blessed by God Himself (Genesis 35:9-12). The story of Jacob and Esau is puzzling to many: but the lesson is that the end justifies the means if the end is righteous.


Now in his anger, Esau hated his brother Jacob (Genesis 27:41) and despised his birthright (Genesis 25:34): and in his bitterness for receiving the blessing that was left to him (Genesis 27:38-40), Esau violated the covenant (Genesis 28:8), and went unto Ishmael (Genesis 28: 9), the progenitor of the Arabs. And Esau, whose name became Edom, became the father of the Edomites (Genesis 36:1-9): and the land of Idumea, the land of Edom.


Now Edom, which was in mount Seir of Idumea, were a people of evil hearts towards the children of Israel by reason of their jealousy and envy for the seed of Jacob. And it came to pass upon the generations, when Jesus Christ came forth in his ministry; the blessing given from Isaac to Esau was fulfilled (Genesis 27:40). For Edom was given dominion and held rule over Israel: first in 47 B.C. when Antipater, an Idumean, was appointed by Julius Caesar as procurator of Judea: then with his son Herod who was appointed in 40 B.C. by Rome to be king of the Jews.


Let no man be mistaken: for I am not saying that all black Muslims are the seed of Herodians. But those who call themselves black Muslims and walk with the America flag, are they not the seed of Herodians? King Herod was an Idumean, who is an Edomite, who fulfilled the blessing of Esau to have dominion and break the yoke of Israel from off his neck. Such is why king Herod sought so desperately to destroy the child Jesus when he heard of his birth.


Now I know I have angered my Muslim brothers in America by reason of this testimony; but the hour at hand is the regeneration and the restoration of things past. Be not angry I pray, but hear the voice of truth that you be not as Herod, to seek to slay the man-child; and as an Edomite, to block the way of Israel: but become restored in the seed that is Isaac, from which we came. For in Isaac is the seed of Abraham: and in Abraham is the seed of Christ. And did not many come out from Idumea, to come unto Jesus, that they may know the Son of God (St. Mark 3:6-12)? Thus, are many of Esau seed saved.


Now some question how I draw the line of an Edomite to the black Muslim in America: Let us see: for we know that the original Hebrews were black people: so Esau and Jacob were of the black race. We know that Esau left his heritage that came to be known as Jews, and allied himself with Ishmael, whose heritage became Muslims. And we know that the seed of Edom produced the Herodians: and we know that the Herodians were a sect of Jews, but more of a political party during the days of Jesus. And if the hour at hand is the regeneration of Jesus Christ and his apostles, and America is Israel in the regeneration, then who are the sects of Jews as in the days of Jesus? Surely some things have changed, because the Prophet Mohammed rose nearly 600 years after Christ, to bring forth the Muslim religion. So the Edomites of old, who were a sect of Jews in the days of Jesus, are now fully in the Muslim religion, and have dominion as a nation of Islam, and authority and influence over many. And the Pharisees of old are now servants of Christianity: and the Sadducees of old are keepers of Egyptology and science: and the Jews are divided by the Old Testament and the New. All these make up the black people in America, who are not Afro-Americans, neither Africans, nor Egyptians, or Muslims, but Jews.


My Muslim brothers: I call out to you who follow the voice of Minister Louis Farrakhan: for in his voice is much truth: even in my youth I grew listening and admiring the words from such a great man: whose seat I come not to remove; but to call him home to the house of Jacob. I call out to you, Minister Louis Farrakhan, that you be my brother in spirit and in truth, and come home to the house of Israel from which you came. For we were brought to this country on slave ships together, as the original Hebrew seed, that we be restored in the hour of the regeneration, to be twins of one nation. For the grace of Christ has blessed us, to no longer be as two nations, and to manner of people: but one nation which is Israel: and one manner of people which are Jews. I call out to you that your disciples might hear my plea, to notify you that there is one in Israel that seek to break bread with you, and deliver a message for your ears only. Surely if you found gladness in standing beside the Pharisee Jesse Jackson, what then shall be your reward in standing beside me? I come not in the spotlight as you are in the spotlight; but I will stand in the spotlight in my own time. I pray you are standing beside me.


Hear me, I pray, my brother Farrakhan: for the same God that raised you up, and Elijah, and Malcolm, that you be faithful messengers and fulfill a purpose; has raised me up, that I be a faithful messenger and fulfill a purpose. And here is my purpose and yours: I am summoned to bring the love of Esau back to Jacob; and a spiritual and social revolution in the True name of Jesus Christ to all the earth: You are summoned to accept the love of Christ from whence you came; and to provide a short cut as Moses requested a short cut for the children of Israel. I pray my brother, that, my words do not fall upon deaf ears: and that you be not as the king of Edom, to turn away from your brother, and to make my days longer than they need be. For the Most High God has commanded me to come before you, his faithful servant, and to the multitude of your congregation, that pride turn not your heart away from the truth. I beseech you my brother in the Name of the Almighty God: and I ask forgiveness from the soul of Jacob, that Esau might forgive his brother for the sin of taking his birthright, and for the means done to receive the blessing. I pray this day for us to be restored, in a love we had never shared, that our unity might set the world on fire. I pray these things though I know the answer: but I pray anyway from the goodness of my heart. Peace be with you my Muslim brothers. I pray for us.


I Cornelius, call out to the black man in America: that you come out from the Edomite, and the Pharisee, and the Sadducee, and the Jew without Christ. For the hour of restoration is at hand: and I give you the glory of the hour. Bless it be he that turn unto the Lord, to worship in spirit and in truth; forsaking the things he had been taught; to be restored in his true heritage.


I Cornelius, a black man in America, called from the root that is Israel; humbly submit myself to the glory that is Christ. And I say unto you all: Look not to the east for the rebirth of Christ (Hebrews 1:5-6); but to the west: for if the wise men came from the east to worship Christ (St. Matthew 2:2), then Christ was not born of flesh in the east. Moreover, the great river Euphrates, which in the regeneration is the Atlantic Ocean, shall be dried up that a way for the kings from the east be prepared (Revelation 16:12). So if the kings for the final battle are coming from the east, where then is the final battle? Look to the west of the old land, which in the regeneration is the center land of the earth. Look not to the east, neither to the middle east, for a sign: but look to the Scriptures, and hear the words of the prophet Isaiah, whose spirit even I am. For it is so written: “Fear not: for I am with thee: I will bring the seed from the east, and gather thee from the west; I will say to the north, Give up; and to the south, Keep not back: bring my sons from far, and my daughters from the ends of the earth; Even every one that is called by my name: for I have created him for my glory, I have formed him; yea, I have made him. Bring forth the blind people that have eyes, and the deaf that have ears. Let all the nations be gathered together, and let the people be assembled: who among them can declare this, and shew us former things? let them bring forth their witnesses, that they may be justified: or let them hear, and say, It is truth.


Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my 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. I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no saviour. I have declared, and have saved, and I have shewed, when there was no strange god among you: therefore ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, that I am God. Yea, before the day was I am he; and there is none that can deliver out of my hand: I will work, and who shall let it?” (Isaiah 43:5-13)


Now to those that say the Old Testament and the New Testament contradict: I say unto them, The contradiction you perceive is that which you do not understand. For if you search the Scriptures, you shall find the birth of Christ, and the reformation that is found in the New Testament, was prophesied in the Old Testament. For example: The prophecy of Jesus is written in the book of Isaiah, which is the Old Testament. One short passage reads: “For unto us a child is born, 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” (Isaiah 9:6). In that one Scripture it is prophesied that Jesus would be called God and the Prince of Peace. So is Jesus also God, even as he is the Son of God? Let us search the Scriptures: for it is written in the book of Hebrews: “And again, when he bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him. And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire. 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. Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows” (Hebrews 1:6-9). I bring nothing new, but show you that which you have overlooked. The Father has transferred His throne to His Son for the restoration, whose culmination is the Messianic Age. So even as Jesus is the Son of God, he also is God; because the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Ghost are three, yet one.



Now the new covenant, which is the reformation, was also prophesied in the Old Testament. It is written in the book of Isaiah: “I the LORD have called thee in righteousness, and will hold thine hand, and will keep, and give thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the Gentiles; To open the blind eyes, to bring out the prisoners from the prison, and them that sit in darkness out of the prison house. I am the LORD: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images. Behold, the former things are come to pass, and new things do I declare: before they spring forth I tell you of them” (Isaiah 42:6-9). So there are no contradictions between the Old and the New; because what is in the New Testament was told to come in the Old Testament.


Men have brought confusion upon themselves in order not to believe what is written. But this is the restoration of all things, even the Holy Word of God. So I ask, Can the Temple Bethel be restored; even the church of the prophet Crowdy? All that repent unto the Truth is restored: I pray for you all.


I Cornelius, sent to restore the Truth of God, leave you this Sabbath with these words: and I pray you hear and understand: “Until the day in which he was taken up, after that he through the Holy Ghost had given commandments unto the apostles whom he had chosen: To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God: And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me. For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.


When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel? And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power. But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.


And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight. And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel; Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven” (Acts 1:2-11).


Peace be with you: and blessings: and love. Amen.



THE ANTICHRIST


DECEMBER 22, 2001



Unto the Church of God and all who are anointed as saints of Christ: All Hail: Is it well with thee?: I am well in the company of righteous souls. May the Lord God Almighty lay His holy hand upon the repenting Gentile as He do upon the believing Jew: for we all are called into the oneness of Christ body.


My brothers and sisters in Jesus Christ: I come before you this Sabbath to raise your consciousness of the spirit that is the antichrist; whose spirit has entered the open doors of the Church of God, to give testimony on the message board, as if he is a saint of Christ. Beware: for this spirit consist of many; both men and women; both young and old; both Jew and Gentile: speaking the love of God and quoting scriptures with the voice of a humble and meek spirit. Beware: for the antichrist is given the power to deceive the very elect if it were possible. How convincing then are his words in the name of God? But this we know: we are the true worshippers of God: thus we cannot be deceived: because it is not possible. For a true worshipper of God worships in spirit and in truth: fearing God because he has the true knowledge of God. We fear the Lord: because the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom (Proverbs 1:7). So we cannot be misled; neither be as it is written; “There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death” (Proverbs 16:25): for we are called into wisdom, to hear instruction, and do correction, without any shame of the ignorance from which we came. Thus, what effect can the spirit of the antichrist now have on us, even as he persuaded us in our ignorance? For we were ignorant, but now we are not: because the Father is faithful to shine His light upon our darkness, that we may know the truth, because the truth shall set us free. Are we not free, because our mind is free? Surely we have conquered our captures, which are not the heathen Gentiles, but our minds. For in our own ignorance have we been led away, to forget our heritage, and the way of truth, that we became a valley of dry bones; and a herd of lost sheep. So what has the spirit of the antichrist done to us that we have not done to ourselves? I pray for each man to look into his mirror, that, he behold, the deceiver in him: that which influences the mind with thoughts from pride, envy, jealousy, and lies. These thoughts mislead a righteous heart to manifest wicked things. But are we innocent if we are misled by our thoughts? Nay: for all things are manifested by one’s own volition as an existence of flesh. We cannot prevent the thoughts of evil from surfacing in our mind, because we have the knowledge of good and evil; but we are responsible for the thoughts we turn into action. So if we sin, we have not sinned because the devil made us sin; but because the devil influenced us to sin in our ignorance, which is a weakness, and a flaw.


Brethren of mine: No man can become a free man until he recognizes the deceiver in him. Only through recognizing can you become aware to cast out the devil that is in you. For in every man there is good and evil: so there is a spirit of God and a spirit of the devil in every man. But when we dedicate our mind in the love of righteousness, we are born of God through the grace of Jesus Christ, and have cast out the devil from within us by the power of the Holy Ghost. For our mind is renewed; not that we no longer have the thoughts of sin; but that the thoughts are not turned into action, neither considered in the sanctity of our mind.


Brethren of mine: I know you have been taught that the thought of sin is being in sin. But I tell you this: A thought is not a thought until it is considered. For if I use my common sense, how can I prevent the thoughts of sin from surfacing in my mind, when I have the knowledge of good and evil? Do we not have the knowledge of good and evil? So be it then that a man learns to overcome the world by preventing the knowledge of evil from defiling the temple of his body, which is by not considering the thoughts of evil. When the thoughts of evil are not considered, the name of God is glorified, and the blood of Christ is justified.


We who are called to be saints of Christ are called not because of our righteous hearts, but because of our righteous hearts and minds. For we are whole in the Lord: because our hearts are righteous to receive instruction: and our minds are righteous to do correction. But the one with a righteous heart without a righteous mind is like worshipping in spirit and being ignorant to the truth: thus prey for the wiles of the Antichrist: who is not ignorant to the truth; but is a liar, and the father of it.


My brothers and sisters: There are many that think they know the truth, and close their ears to me. These are the ignorant turned foolish: for a wise man is built on common sense. I pray. Be not deceived by the spirit of the antichrist, who speaks in all the spirit of the Scriptures, even using the word of truth but not the actions behind the word. Be not deceived by him that speaks to you, in thought or in flesh, quoting Scriptures contrary to the sayings of Jesus to justify his worship. For when a man seek the words of another in the holy bible to contradict the words of Jesus, know the spirit of that man is the antichrist. Any who do not acknowledge and adhere that the words of Jesus supersede the words of all others is the spirit of the antichrist. For if a man do not place the testimony of Jesus above all others, then he do not believe that Jesus is the Christ. And if a man should say that Jesus spoke through his apostles, so all testimony in the New Testament is Jesus. I say unto that man and all who agree, Verily the Spirit moved all men to write the Scriptures: but the words spoken directly from the mouth of Jesus are written in red letters. This is done that men might know the words of the Holy Bible that rule over all others: both old and new testaments.


Is that not the spirit of the antichrist, who quotes the words of Jesus, but is selective in the things of Jesus that he do? Is that not the spirit of the antichrist, who quotes the words of Jesus, but justifies his worship by the words of another?


In their ignorance, men keep the Sabbath on Sunday (the first day of the week) instead of Saturday (the seventh day of the week). I pray. Be removed from your ignorance, that the light of Christ be manifested in you. I pray. Read Genesis 2:2-3 and Exodus 20: 8-11. And if a man should say, Jesus spoke of another day. Is it not written: “And Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit into Galilee: and there went out a fame of him through all the region round about. And he taught in their synagogues, being glorified of all. And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to read” (St. Luke 4:14-16). And is it not written: “For if Jesus had given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day” (Hebrews 4:8).


In their ignorance, men do not keep the Passover feast. Do you not know, that, the Last Supper was the Passover feast (St. John 13:1-2)? And are these not the words of Jesus Christ himself: “Go into the city to such a man, and say unto him, The Master saith, My time is at hand; I will keep the Passover at thy house with my disciples” (St. Matthew 26: 18). Now if a man should mis-use the Scriptures of I Corinthians 5:7-8, to justify not keeping the Hebrew Passover feast: Is he not the spirit of the antichrist? For if Jesus be the perfect man, Why would a man change the things Jesus said and did, unless that man be the mind of the antichrist.


In their ignorance, men have not had their feet washed in the name of Christ. Do they not know that foot washing is a commandment? For is it not written: “Peter saith unto him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me” (St. John 13:8). How important then is having one’s feet washed? For Jesus Christ himself said, “If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another’s feet. For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you” (St. John 13:14-15). I pray. Read the Seven Keys: and know them: and keep them in the house of God. For what labor have you done for Christ, if you do not keep the things of Christ?


I pray. Be not angry because I have uncovered your ignorance. For Paul so wrote: “For we know in part, and we prophesy in part. But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away” (I Corinthians 13:9-10). Paul knew in part and prophesied in part. Peter knew in part and prophesied in part. The Prophet Mohammed knew in part and prophesied in part. The Prophet Crowdy knew in part and prophesied in part. Bishops and Reverends knew in part and prophesied in part. All others knew in part and prophesied in part. But the hour come, and now is the hour, for that which is perfect, which be the testimony of Jesus Christ, to be restored. For the words have not changed, nor the understanding: but in our ignorance, we were blind to the obvious, and to the truth, because we sought understanding outside the realm of common sense, which is the heart of understanding the knowledge of God. Do you not know that common sense is not our own understanding, but the path to wisdom directed by God? I reason with men in their common sense, that they be of sound mind and understanding, which the spirit of the antichrist cannot be. For he is stuck on Christianity and the idols it represent: and with the paganism that is his heart and soul, he has deceived righteous and whole-hearted men to uphold his pagan customs and traditions with the celebration of Christmas and Easter.


Of those two holidays, the spirit of the antichrist will not abolish, because they camouflage the evil of his way. Surely, the overwhelming majority of the earth would not worship Satan if they knew they were worshipping Satan: such is why the spirit of the antichrist speaks in the love of God, to camouflage his paganism, so he might deceive the earth to worship him in the name of Christ.


With cunningly devised fables the spirit of the antichrist has seduced and indoctrinated the people of earth to observe things not of Jesus as things of Jesus. Men have been indoctrinated throughout the generations from Constantine (the first resurrection of the antichrist) to believe that Christmas is the celebration of Christ birth when in fact it is the festival of Mithra; a day to be merry and to send gifts to one another for the birth of Satan’s son; even the beast whose seed is Cain.


Though I have revealed the truth of Christmas, which is X-mas, men continue to observe this evil day, (which is the most evil day of the year), as if it is the birthday of Jesus Christ. Are we fools? God forbid. For we are not: but there are many who cannot put away this tradition of honoring the son of perdition as the Son of God. Even some that are called to stand beside me find it hard to put away this evil day, because they have grown accustomed to it, and because they do not want to take away their child’s joy. But should you cast your child and yourself into everlasting death for the sake of one day? I pray not. But so shall it be: if you continue in that tradition which has been made known to you, of its evil origin and purpose.


Here is knowledge for the new ear: The birth of Mithra, the Aryan sun god, was celebrated on December 25, 1400 years before the birth of Christ by heathen Gentiles. This ritual and celebration known as the Nativity was stolen by the European seed from the Egyptians, who had learned the prophecy of Christ birth from the seed of Noah. Mithra is taken from the Egyptian god Ra: and Ra was given in the knowledge handed down from the seed of Seth, which the Egyptians turned into paganism (Read in the Sermon Archives The Root of Israel and the Testimony). The name Ra was first used by Enoch; whose seed brought forth Abraham; whose seed brought forth Israel. Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied even then that the Lord shall come with ten thousand saints to execute judgment upon all (Jude 14,15). How great then was Enoch, the seventh generation of man, that he held the knowledge of Christ even then? How great was he, that, he saw no death, but was lifted up into heaven alive (Hebrews 11:5)? Know therefore that the word of God was in the beginning: and in the beginning was Christ.


I preach the call of repentance only to the new ears: for those that have heard my testimony yet receive not the love of the truth are condemned to believe a lie, and to reap the judgment of unrighteousness. For they have found pleasure in serving the Wicked one, who has exalted himself, and is worshipped in heaven. For he is found sitting in the temple of God; showing himself as if he is God; speaking in the love and spirit of God to deceive the earth. Who has given Satan this place? Look not at the Almighty, but at yourself. For when Pilate washed his hands of innocent blood, did you not say, His blood is on us and our children? And is it not spoken from the mouth of Jesus: “And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven” (St. Matthew 16:19). So have we been strict overseers of the keys? Nay: for in the leniency given by Paul and Peter, the spirit of the antichrist was loosened on earth; thus given a place in heaven. And now he sits among us in the glory that is Christ, while we must wait patiently for our Lord to bring forth a new heaven and a new earth. We have surely brought this curse upon ourselves: but now is the hour of redemption: and nigh is the hour of final judgment. So let us gather ourselves into the sanctuary of God, which is the love of the truth. And we shall not become dead men; and lost souls of damnation; but manifest ourselves before the earth as the children of God.


Hear me I pray: all that be new ears: for you are redeemed from your ignorance by the Spirit of Truth: unless your ignorance become foolishness; because you despise the wisdom and instruction I bring. I pray. Be not led by man’s pride; but be thankful for the knowledge of the truth: for whom the Lord loves the Lord correct (Proverbs 3:12). So be not like them, those who swallow themselves in pride, because they thought highly of themselves, and now their ignorance has been revealed. If you are true in the spirit of Christ, humble yourself to the voice of truth, and submit yourself as a student. For I too was ignorant before the Lord opened up my eyes to the hidden treasures of His wisdom and understanding which I bring to you as a gift from God, that I be seen not greater than you, but in the Spirit of the first among equals. I seek to replace no man from his seat: but to take my rightful place according the word of God.


Hear me I pray: All who are called to be saints of Christ, as I recite these Scriptures this Sabbath day: “NOW we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.


Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.


Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things? And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.


And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.


But we are bound to give thanks always to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth: Whereunto he called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle.


Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God, even our Father, which hath loved us, and hath given us everlasting consolation and good hope through grace, Comfort your hearts, and stablish you in every good word and work” (II Thessalonians 2:1-17). I pray you have heard the word of God, that come not by me, but by the same Spirit that is in me. For I bring nothing new to the doctrine of Christ; but to restore that which has been forgotten.


My friends: Cast out the day of Christmas from among you: for it is surely not one of the traditions kept by Jesus, neither any of his apostles. But this evil day the earth call Christmas can be found in the Scriptures. Let us open our Holy Bibles to Revelation 11:3-10: and let us Read and Hear: “And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth. These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth. And if any man will hurt them, fire proceedeth out of their mouth, and devoureth their enemies: and if any man will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed.


These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will.


And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them. And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.


And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall see their dead bodies three days and a half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves. And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth”.


“And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and send gifts one to another”. I ask you my friends: What is the only day, that, the inhabitants of the earth is merry, and send gifts to one another? Do they not say, Merry Christmas? And do they not send gifts and cards to each other, as if it is a sin not to? Hoodwinked and Humbugged are the inhabitants of the earth that follow the traditions of the Gentile world.


I pray. Be not found with the sin of pride; but receive correction, and instruction, that you might be found in the wisdom of God’s love. For as it is written: “And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels, In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power; When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day” (II Thessalonians 1:7-10): so shall it be. Thus, let the riches of a man be the truth: and let him sell it not; neither wisdom, or instruction, or understanding; as it is written in Proverbs 23:23. And let the people say, Amen.









LABOR FOR CHRIST

DECEMBER 15, 2001


Unto the Church of God and all who are called to be saints of Christ: All Hail: Is it well with thee?: I am well in my labor for Jesus Christ. May his love continue to embrace us in all our trials and tribulations: and may his comfort ease our burdens and release us from the sick and shut-in.


My brothers and sisters in the Spirit of Truth: Even when I am weakened in my labor for Christ; I am uplifted by his Spirit which gives me strength and inspiration when I have none. Think not that your words of encouragement bear no fruit: for I am replenished even by your words: for your words are indeed from the Spirit of Christ.


Let brotherly love continue: for the brotherhood of Christ is the labor for Christ, which is to love the Almighty God with all your heart, and soul, and mind, and strength; and to love your neighbor as yourself.


We who are called to labor for Christ are called because of the Spirit that is in us, which is the Spirit of God that has made us, and the breath of the Almighty that has given us life. Thus we seek the reward and the fruit of our labor which only the Lord our God can provide, that we be not as the hypocrites, and as those living lavishly in wealth from the tithes and offerings of the faithful. For what labor have we done for the Lord, if we wear thousand dollar suits and live in million dollar homes? And what labor have we done for the Lord, if we do not practice what we preach?


Was not our Lord Jesus Christ made poor, that he might be seen rich in the word of God (II Corinthians 8:9)? Why then are there men professing their labor for Christ, but collecting tithes and offerings to live as rich men do on the earth, which is not by Word, but by worldly possessions?

Jesus said, “Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed” (St. John 6:27). Thus, let your labor be for spirit and truth, which is Christ. For when you labor for Christ, you do the work of God. And what is the work of God? Jesus said, “This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent” (St. John 6:29).

But there is no respect of persons with God (Romans 2:11): so in our labor to save souls from the pit of death, we are subject to scorn and revilement. Though we preach love for all men, we are hated by men, and despised in our labor. We are called in the glory of Christ only to receive ridicule from the inhabitants of the earth. We sacrifice our lives for the sake of others, yet we are appreciated not. I call no man to be my enemy, but to know my God. For my God is God: the Almighty God: the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. Let those who seek to labor for Christ, be not as those who labor in vain. I pray. Be not as those who lean into their own understanding, that, pride become not a stumbling block. For as the many that are offended by the Truth, they are offended because of pride.


Brethren of mine: Hear my words, I pray, all ye wise men, and all ye that have knowledge of the truth. For we are called to our labor for Christ, that we may show our faith by our works, and not by our words alone. We are not called as servants, but as joint-heirs with Christ. So we are exalted, because Christ has exalted us, in making us like him. Who then is the deliverer of our words, but the Holy Ghost? And if the Holy Ghost is the deliverer of our words, then are we not anointed as saints with the Spirit of authority and judgment? For it is clearly written: “Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters?


Know ye not that we shall judge angels? how much more things that pertain to this life?” (I Corinthians 6:2-3)

So question not what authority we have, but let us be worthy of our gift. For if we be saints of Christ, then we are little children: and let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth, as it is written (I John 3:18).


O saints of the Most High God: Let us open our Holy bibles this Sabbath to II Corinthians 6:1-10: and let us Read and Hear: “WE then, as workers together with him, beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain. (For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the day of salvation.)


Giving no offence in anything, that the ministry be not blamed: But in all things approving ourselves as the ministers of God, in much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses, In stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labours, in watchings, in fastings; By pureness, by knowledge, by longsuffering, by kindness, by the Holy Ghost, by love unfeigned, By the word of truth, by the power of God, by the armour of righteousness on the right hand and on the left, By honour and dishonour, by evil report and good report: as deceivers, and yet true; As unknown, and yet well known; as dying, and, behold, we live; as chastened, and not killed; As sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing all things”.


Let us abide therefore in our companionship; and in our fellowship with one another; that our communion be of the same ilk. For as it written: “Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?


And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you. And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty” (II Corinthians 6:14-18): so shall it be.


So in our labor for Christ as Disciples of Truth, we separate ourselves from the wicked, and from the things that be unclean. And though we are not found preaching on the street, or knocking door to door: think not that we are not at work for the Lord. For if we lead one to salvation, and he turn back, have we not done our work? And if we practice what we preach, have we not done our work?


Behold, I have opened my mouth unto all nations, and my tongue has spoken the righteousness of Christ, and my lips has uttered the knowledge of life clearly. Let none be consumed away except it be for their own foolishness, which is the wickedness and iniquity they justify in their vain worship. For I have showed to every eye that looked, and given for every ear to hear, Undisputable Truth. But what be the regeneration, if it be not the resurrection of deaf ears and blind eyes? So I waste no time going door to door, neither in the streets: but let them come unto me via the World Wide Web. For if you be of God, then you shall hear my voice, because you shall be led unto to it; even in the manner men call coincidence. Be that you know then, that, there is no such thing as coincidence: for such is the guidance of the Lord.


We who are called to labor in the Lord, for the harvest of the Lord, that the blood of Christ be not in vain: are raised from the dead as Christ is raised from the dead. And we are not called from out of darkness, but from out of the light that is Christ: for out of his flesh and blood are we raised as flesh and blood, to walk after the Spirit as he walked after the Spirit. For by his grace are we adopted as sons and daughters of God, that we receive all the honor and glory that is Christ, so the world might learn of his greatness through the works we manifest in his true name.


To all who are called to be manifested in Christ as sons and daughters of God: Let us turn our Holy Bibles to I Corinthians 15:12-25: and let us Read and Hear: “Now if Christ be preached that he rose from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead?


But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is Christ not risen: And if Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain. Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God; because we have testified of God that he raised up Christ: whom he raised not up, if so be that the dead rise not. For if the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised: And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins. Then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished.


If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable. But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept. For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ’s at his coming.


Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power. For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet”.


My fellow heirs: Every man is called to his own purpose: Some are called to speak and others to listen: Some are called to teach and others to learn. But when one has listened and learned is he not also called to speak and teach? And when one has spoke and taught is he not also called to listen and learn? Be therefore humble in all things: for where there is strength and greatness in one there is also weakness and faults; and where there is weakness and faults in one there is also strength and greatness. So let no man be greater than the next man, that he think himself to be more than he is: for even as I am bestowed the hidden treasures of God’s wisdom and knowledge by the Spirit of Christ himself, I am a student at times to one like unto Ysmael. For is he not worthy to be called an apostle of the regeneration? And if he be an apostle in the regeneration, whose Spirit is he? For it is written: “And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel” (St. Matthew 19:28).


I pray you understand the words I preach: for if you have followed my testimony from the beginning you should. Verily I say unto you, Our labor for Christ is not just speaking and teaching in the true doctrine of Christ; but listening and learning; hearing and doing. For if we practice not what we preach, are we not as the hypocrites; and as the many that worship in vain?


Keep the Sabbath and the Commandments of God: no longer observe Christmas and Easter and the remnant of Christianity: neither be as the blasphemy of them that say they are Jews, but are not (the false state of Israel and the Hebrews without Christ). These things we preach in our labor for Christ that men might repent from their vain worship, which is abiding in the commandments of men. For who commanded that the Sabbath be kept on the first day of the week? Not God; but Constantine (the first resurrection of the antichrist). And who disguised the paganism of Satan (Christmas and Easter) as Christian holidays? Not an apostle of Christ; but Constantine.


If you have read the Stone of Truth, then you know how Satan deceived the earth. But though I have revealed the truth, and opened men eyes, they cannot break the yoke of ignorance that keep them chained to the indoctrination of cunningly devised fables, which the world know as Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny. Things first introduced as customs for Christians by the Nicolaitanes: but was made sacrilegious with the inception of the Roman Catholic Church.


I say this thing, and let my knowledge be clearly heard: If you continue to worship outside the doctrine that Christ himself has restored, which is his true testimony, which is according to every word that is written in red letters, found in the Authorized King James Version of the Holy Bible; your worship is in vain: whether you be Hebrew, or Muslim, or Gentile. For how can a Hebrew be a Hebrew without Christ? For is it not written of Christ in the book of Hebrews: “For verily he took not on him the nature of angels; but he took on him the seed of Abraham” (Hebrews 2:16). Thus, if Jesus took on the seed of Abraham, then is he not Hebrew by flesh and blood, even by Spirit and Truth?


And how can Palestine be liberated and the Prophet Mohammed receive his rightful place without Christ in the heart and mind of a Muslim? Surely victory cannot be done over those that persecute the Palestinians without the name of Christ written in the forehead of Palestine.


And who is a Gentile without the true doctrine of Jesus Christ, but a heathen in disguise.


We who labor for Christ in the true doctrine of Christ, offend many, because the truth is not in them. But what say our Lord Jesus Christ: “But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men” (St. Matthew 15:9).


Do they not know that everything spoken from the mouth of Jesus relates to the here and now, even tomorrow, as it was yesterday?


Fools see with the eyes of actuality; but wise men see with the eyes of reality. Thus the wise will not faint in their labor for Christ: because they live for what will be, and not for what is.


Here is wisdom: There is a difference of being weary and feeling weary. The Scriptures teaches us not to be weary: so we are not. But we cannot stop the feeling of weariness because we are of flesh, and weariness is natural in flesh; and nothing can precede what the flesh feel. So in our labor for Christ, we feel weariness because of our flesh: but in being born of God, we have overcome the feelings of flesh by our Spirit, that, the thoughts from the feelings of flesh that freely enter our mind exit without consideration.


I share this wisdom with you my friends, that, you might understand the weakness of your flesh, even in the strength of your spirit. For if we come not in the likeness of the common man, how then can the common man repent and be like us? And if we be not conscious of our weakness in flesh, how then can we overcome the weakness of our flesh?


Beloved children of God: all who are called to labor for Christ in the spiritual and social revolution that has come by way of his true name: Let the organizers among you come forward: for there is much work to be done in such a short space of time. Sit not idly by: but bring the knowledge of the truth to a new ear, that he might hear, to listen and learn, to speak and teach unto others. Surely the revolution in the true name of Jesus Christ is not protest and riots: nor marches and rallies: but a humble and meek spirit in the knowledge of the truth. For we are not called to go about convincing others: but to gather our lost brothers and sisters together, who hear us and know us by the Spirit of our words. So we speak out, boldly and without the fear of what man can do, that every ear might hear, our calling in Spirit and Truth. For we call out to you, from the Church of God and the house of the Lord, that you might find your place, and take your seat, in the congregation of the Lord. And if you should look for me, and cannot find me; know that I am in you. For my Spirit has many faces: one face is Ysmael: another face is you who worship in spirit and in truth.


Let us prepare ourselves: for our days of labor shall be longsuffering: and of many thorns and thistles: and with an abundance of betrayers and backbiters: and a host of wolves in sheep clothing. For as the children of God are resurrected, so also are the children of the devil. These are those that oppose the Truth: and whose doings are all things wicked. These are those that are manifested as the powers that be and the rulers at hand, whom Christ shall put under his feet.


So let us faint not: and let us be not weary: but endure to the end. For such is the test not of your spirit (because your spirit has proven itself worthy to be called to labor), but of your flesh, that you might prove your flesh to be worthy of your inheritance. For in the Messianic Age, and in the new Jerusalem, will we not live by flesh and blood? Know therefore that we must prove ourselves worthy in flesh even as we are made worthy in spirit: for Jesus overcame sin not by blood, but by flesh and blood. Did he not teach us how to walk in flesh without sin? So we are not made strong, neither whole, unless our flesh be strong. And we are not free from sin, unless our flesh is free. Indeed, flesh and blood is nothing without the spirit: and the spirit is nothing without the truth. All these things must be of one accord, for a man to be righteous whole in the Lord, to walk in flesh as Jesus Christ walked in flesh.


I pray you understand this wisdom I speak: for I cannot break it down any further. Thus be prepared in your labor for Christ, which is called in your own order, and in your own purpose. So let no man dictate the actions of another: for we all are called at different times; and we all have a different purpose in our calling. For some are called to speak and teach while others are called to listen and learn. But they that are called to listen and learn; are they not also called to speak and teach in their own time; and according to their own purpose? Forbid them not: for these are the sons of God. And he that know God hear them: and if you hear them not, then you do not know God. Who then is your spirit, but the spirit of Error? How then can a man rid himself from the spirit of Error, except he put away his pride?


Beloved: no man can labor for Christ with man’s pride. For it is surely written: “A man’s pride shall bring him low: but honour shall uphold the humble in spirit” (Proverbs 29:23). And what did our Lord Jesus Christ say, “That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man. For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders, Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, and evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness: All these evil things come from within, and defile the man” (St. Mark 7:20-23). So according to the testimony of Jesus Christ, pride is an evil thing.


I beseech all men, and women, and children, out of my love for them all: Break the chain of falsehood that has darkened the mind of generations: and let the indoctrination of Christianity be a forlorn thing. For in the labor of Jesus Christ, we labor, in the Spirit of Truth, to condemn all lies into damnation. For if we are joint-heirs with Christ, are we not also given the power and authority to judge as Christ? For if the Holy Ghost is given unto us as the crown of our inheritance, who then is the Spirit of our words? And if the Holy Ghost be the Spirit of our words, what then is the judgment of those that speak against the Holy Ghost? Is it not written: “And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come” (St. Matthew 12:32). How great then is the Holy Ghost, that, a word spoken against the Son of man shall be forgiven; but a word spoken against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven, in this world, neither in the world to come.


Pray that your labor be in the Spirit of Truth, which is the Holy Ghost, which is the crown of Christ. For the Lord God Almighty will not hold him guiltless that call His name in vain (Exodus 20:7): neither shall our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ know you that call on his name in vain. For it was surely spoken by him: and I tell you again as I told you before: “Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity” (St. Matthew 7:21-23). Those are the words of Jesus Christ himself: and the words are written plain and clear, that, FEAR SHOULD FALL UPON EVERY HEART THAT LABOR FOR CHRIST IN VAIN.


For unto men Jesus said, “And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say”? (St. Luke 6:46)


Men say my labor for Christ is in vain: But if my labor be in vain, why can’t those men show the correction of my testimony according to the testimony of Christ, as I have showed them the error of their ways? Why is it that these men who believe not on my testimony cannot show why they believe not according to the things that Christ himself said? Why is it that they say I am wrong, but cannot show where I am wrong?


If you are a believer of Jesus Christ, but cannot justify the things you do according to his direct testimony, then you are not a believer of Jesus Christ. For all who are called to Christ do the things of Christ: even as you knew them not, you know them now, because I have revealed them to you: so ignorance is not an excuse when the truth has been given. If you are a true believer of Jesus Christ, then you have common sense despite your ignorance. So when the truth is revealed to you, you hear it, and know it, and accept it: because common sense follows the path of truth. That which blocks the path of truth is pride, and envy, and jealousy, and foolishness. Let any who be led by those things know that he is led by evil things. How then can he labor for Christ not in vain?


It is behooved that every man look into his own soul without his own understanding to see him as he is: for in every man there is a wise man and a fool; a strong man and a weak man; a knowledgeable man and a ignorant man: because there is a positive and negative side to everything. And as there is a natural inclination to be one; there is also a natural inclination to be the other. So a man can be strong and also weak: knowledgeable and also ignorant. But a wise man cannot be a fool; neither can a fool be a wise man: because fools despise wisdom and instruction (Proverbs 1:7). Such is why fools are forever learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. I pray for them, that I be not like them, and that the seed of my children be not like them, unto all their generations. I pray for them in my labor for Christ, that the seed of the foolish be eradicated from the earth. Selah. And let the people say, Amen. And let one say, So be it.










REDEMPTION


DECEMBER 8, 2001


Unto the Church of God and Saints of Christ: All Hail: Is it well with thee?: I am well in my redemption from the Lord Jesus Christ. Thus I recite these words this Sabbath from the book of Romans 5:1-21: and let us Hear: “THEREFORE being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience; And patience, experience; and experience, hope; And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.


For when we were yet without strength in due time Christ died for the ungodly. For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.


Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.


And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement. Wherefore, as by one man sin entereth into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned: (For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law. Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam’s transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come.


But not as the offence, so also is the free gift. For if through the offence of one many de dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, which is by one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many. And not as it was by one that sinned, so is the gift: for the judgment was by one to condemnation, but the free gift is of many offences unto justification.


For if by one man’s offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.) Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life.


For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous. Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound: That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord”.


Truly, the Lord God has blessed us with His grace, that we be anointed with the oil of atonement, which is the redemption of His Son Jesus Christ. For by the disobedience of Adam were many made sinners: but by the obedience of Jesus are many made righteous.


Yet, though we have grace, and forgiveness of our sins, should we continue in sin?


I, yet not I, but Christ saith, “Behold, thou art made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee” (St. John 5:14).


Only the redemption from Jesus Christ can make us whole: we are therefore given grace that we might be able to climb the stairway of becoming whole in Christ, which is the baptism of spirit and truth, which is the tearing down of the old man and building anew; which is enduring trials and tribulations, and overcoming burdens and temptations.


Let no man think he has not sinned and come short of the glory of God: for we all were buried in sin: and we all walked in part. For our knowledge of God was in part: and our understanding of the Scriptures was in part: and our knowledge of self was in part. But by the redemption of Jesus Christ in this hour at hand, which is the regeneration of his days, we are made whole in the knowledge of life: to have the knowledge of God, and to have understanding of the Scriptures, and to know our Heritage. For we are not African-Americans, neither Africans, but Jews of original Hebrew flesh and blood. Yet, many among us cannot imagine themselves as Jews. How great is their brainwashing to be unable to fathom the idea, that, they are Jews by heritage?


These are as a valley of dry bones with no breath of life: clinging to the vain knowledge of the Gentile world: and giving their allegiance to the god of Christendom, on whose throne sit Satan disguised as an angel of light.


I seek them not; neither do I pity them: for their ears are closed to the Voice of Truth: thus their fate is in the hands of hell. These are those who continue in sin: mocking God in the name of grace: and bellowing scorn for the testimony I bring.


In the ignorance of my youth, I knew no better: but in the redemption of Jesus Christ, I am made wise in the Lord, because I heard the Voice of Truth when it spoke to me. And by adhering to the Spirit I became a man-child: maturing in the knowledge of the truth. Thus, should any with ears be found innocent of not knowing the truth save a little child?


I beseech all men of good hearts that are ignorant in their understanding, who do these foolish things of following Christianity, and acknowledging Jesus as only a prophet. I cry out to you because of your righteous hearts, which is sincere love for the Almighty. So I say these words to you, that you might know the way of salvation: A man cannot know love without wisdom: and a man cannot have wisdom without redemption: and a man cannot find redemption without the Spirit of Truth.


Let no man mistake knowledge for wisdom: and let no wisdom be unheard. For as quickly as I am called to the sanctuary of the Lord, I am given in speech with the wisdom of the Lord. And though I know not all things in one day, I am learning every day in the knowledge of the truth.


I, yet not I, but Christ, has descended his spirit from out of the throne in heaven to bring his testimony to your remembrance, that you might see through the clouds of darkness that eclipse truth on the earth. Yet, the clouds of hell prevail over many of you, that you stay ignorant in your love of God, to continue in sin under the name of grace.


Let me speak that which is written: for my own words cannot be greater. Thus, let whosoever give an ear hear the words of Romans 6: 1-23: “WHAT shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?


Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus were baptized into his death? Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection: Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. For he that is dead is freed from sin.


Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him: Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him. For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he liveth, he liveth unto God.


Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord. Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof. Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God. For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.


What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid. Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of disobedience unto righteousness?


But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you. Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness.


I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your flesh: for as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to righteousness unto holiness. For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from righteousness. What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed? for the end of those things is death.


But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life. For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord”.


Redemption my Friends is the gift of God, which He has bestowed upon us that keep the true doctrine of His Word. For we are raised from the grave of sin, to enter the newness of life, as a child enters the world from the womb. We are redeemed by the grace of God, to be a new creature in Christ, that we be joint-heirs with Christ (Romans 8:17). And if we are joint-heirs with Christ, then we are in the likeness of Christ. What then is sin to our eyes?


We that are manifested as children of God in the redemption of Christ, seek the comfort of the Comforter, whom we know as the Holy Ghost, even as the Spirit of Truth. For such is life: and there is no comfort in death. But be not confused: for death to a man in the arms of Christ is life in the kingdom of heaven. So we who are called to the purpose of God know no death but the shedding of our blood for the word of God, which is the remission of our sins, which is the crown of our redemption. For if we live in Christ, then we are dead in flesh: because in Christ we live by the Spirit, to walk in the Spirit, and see in the Spirit, and speak in the Spirit, and hear in the Spirit, and eat in the Spirit, and sleep in the Spirit.


We are not called to return to sin, though the temptation is great: because even in our weakness the Lord provides a way to escape, that we may be able to bear it (I Corinthians 10:13).


We are not as the many that justify their sins in the name of grace. We are not as the hypocrite, or the fool, that many be, using the name of God as their cover.


We are not called to glory, to fall victim to shame. We are not called to truth, to be found in a lie. We are not given strength, to be found weak. We are not given eternal life, to know everlasting death.


Beloved men of spirit and truth: We are the sons of God: the seed of righteousness and all good things. We thank God for His Love, and His Mercy, and His Blessings, to bring us out from the grave of sin, to bestow upon us His Grace and Redemption. Bless it be the Lord our God: Holy, Holy, Holy, is He, that make the sun rise and set; that turn night into day; that give life after death.


We that be His holy children; manifested in the likeness of His Son Jesus Christ; bring our message of hope to all the earth, that the light of redemption shine upon every man, woman, and child; that none might have an excuse in the hour of Final Judgment. Hear ye therefore the Voice of Truth: all who be new ears that have entered the Church of God: and receive ye the Seven Keys and the Stone of Truth. And be that you swallow all of it, that it becomes the heart and soul of your knowledge. For without the Seven Keys shall no man enter the gates of Heaven: and without the Stone of Truth shall no man find Life.


I Cornelius, one from among the many sons of God, come before all men this Sabbath in the redemption bestowed upon me, to give my testimony for Jesus Christ, that the truth of his doctrine be known among men. I beseech you that be new ears, to hear the Voice of Truth, and enter the Church of God, to be a saint of Christ. For the Lord Himself has called out to you, that you might hear His Word, and come to His Name, to receive the comfort of the Holy Ghost, and the blessing of His Mercy. Praise be the Lord: Holy and True is He: whose love for us is endless: and whose place for us is sanctified. Glory be to the Almighty God: who has lifted us from out of the sick bed, to give us hope when there was none. Have we not seen the blessings and the grace He has placed before our eyes, that even the blind can see? I trust in God and God alone: for He shall not fail me, neither shall any true child of God. For if you are born of God, then you are sent in the image and likeness of God: and if you be in the image and likeness of God, then you can do no wrong: so in you shall I put my trust: because in you is the Lord our God. Thus, whosoever do the will of God is my mother, and brother, and sister, and friend, and neighbor. For my family is not flesh and blood; but spirit, blood, and water. My family is like unto Ysmael, and Regular Reader, and Joe, and James, and Richard: men I have not laid eyes upon in flesh, but have seen by the spirit of their words. Know therefore, that, even those that appear as a stranger, is my brother and my sister: for many have entertained angels unaware (Hebrews 13:1-2): but angels recognize each other on earth as they recognize each other in heaven.


So be it, that my family be all who give testimony in the knowledge of the truth. And I call out to them, for them to continue in their labor for the Lord, to spread the knowledge of life to all men. For if you find the way, and keep it secret, are you not made rotten?


He that be a new ear, let him hear: I am raised from the water and blood of Jesus Christ: and the miracles I bring is the wisdom from my mouth. For no man can do that which I have done except the Lord do it for him: bear witness therefore of the presence of the Lord. For He has come down on the earth in Spirit: and lifted up a lowly flesh to be the tool of His voice for the inhabitants of the earth. And if a man should ask, Why can’t the Lord speak to us from out of the sky? I say unto that man and all who agree, If the Lord were to speak outside of human flesh, we as human beings could not understand any of His words. For His voice is as the sound of thunder in an unknown tongue to human flesh.


I Pray. Do a man understand my philosophy? I seek not to make things difficult, but to speak as the words are given. For even in human flesh, all things are not made simple. Such is why Jesus spoke in many parables: and why his apostles were left without understanding some of his words. But by the grace and mercy of God, I am sent to make the understanding of things a little easier, that no man might have an excuse, in the regeneration, which is the hour at hand. Seek ye therefore the Bread of Life, which is the Word, whose Word is Christ, the only perfect testimony of God.


In my redemption, I am made with a new tongue, and a new mind, and a new purpose. I no longer run from my calling, because the old man in me that had the fear of things, has passed away. But now that I am born of God in the redemption of Jesus Christ, I have no sin in me; and fear nothing but the Lord. I am born of Him that came by water and blood in the Spirit of Truth. And as it is written: “And there are three that bear witness in earth, the spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one” (I John 5:8): so is it. And here is the mystery of those three: The spirit is God (St. John 4:24); the water is life (St. John 4:10), which is the Word of Christ (St. John 7:38); and the blood is the Holy Ghost (St. John 6:54).


Jesus said, “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” (St. John 3:5). This is the one baptism in the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Ghost. Now hear this wisdom that you might understand: Unless a sinner be cleansed of his mind, what water has cleansed him? Surely he cannot be cleansed with the water of earth. For the water of earth can cleanse the body, but not the mind. So what was the water that Jesus was referring to?


Here is wisdom for all who are called to be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ: Unless a man is cleansed with the water above the firmament, his mind cannot be renewed. Do you not know, that, God called the firmament Heaven (Genesis 1:8): and divided the waters that were under the firmament from the waters above the firmament (Genesis 1:7)? So how can a man receive the water of life (Revelation 22:17), unless his mind is cleansed with the water above the firmament, which is the Spirit of Truth?


This thing I say then in the spirit of redemption: The baptism in Christ is of spirit and truth; body and soul; water and blood; and made into one as the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Ghost are one.


There are many that have been baptized in the name of Jesus Christ with the water of earth only. And now that I have revealed to them that which they must also do to have true redemption in Christ, they will not come to Christ in the knowledge that he is, to receive his redemption; but stay in their own understanding. These are those that honor Christ with their lips, but their hearts are far from him (St. Matthew 15:8). Verily I say unto you as it is written: “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a net, that was cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind: Which, when it was full, they drew to shore, and sat down, and gathered the good into vessels, but cast the bad away. So shall it be at the end of the world: the angels shall come forth, and sever the wicked from among the just. And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth” (St. Matthew 13:47-50).


Of all the things I have written since the beginning of my redemption, this is the sum: If I write not another word, I have written enough. Selah. And let the people say, Amen.



TESTIMONY FOR JESUS


DECEMBER 1, 2001


Unto the Church of God and Saints of Christ: All Hail: Is it well with thee?: I am well in my servitude to the Most High: the Lord God of Israel: the Almighty God. Blessed be those who openly accept me: and shame be upon those who accept me in secret: and woe be to those who accept me not.


I Cornelius, a Friend of God, come before you this Sabbath to give my testimony for Jesus Christ in the Spirit of Prophecy. And let the ears of them that write bitter things against me, and them that speak falsely of me, bear witness to the voice of these words. For though I preach to them not, let them be a witness to the words that pertain to them.


I Cornelius, called to the purpose of God, am hated and despised, even among my own kin, because I have uncovered the lies that men have hid themselves under; and taken away their comfort in falsehood. So be it that I am hated and despised even among my own kin: for flesh and blood is not the heart of my soul; neither is foolishness my fellowship.


I tell you this thing, and the thing be certain: A wise man does not utter vain knowledge. I bring before you the knowledge of God: for I have heard the word of God and understand His precepts by the Spirit of Truth given unto me. Let no man come before me with the wisdom of the worldly mind, thinking he know more than I, because of his degrees. For what you know, I know also. I am not inferior to your vain knowledge: but filled with true knowledge, which is the Truth of God.


I am not a fool for your deceptive words, which is vain knowledge. For is it not written: To be carnally minded is death? And what be the carnal mind but a worldly mind before a spiritual mind. How then can you live? Thus be spiritually minded, which is life and peace. But what be the spiritual mind without true knowledge? How then can you find life and peace without the wisdom to understand the precepts of God? Such is why Jesus said, “God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth” (St. John 4: 24). So to be spiritually minded is not enough: one must also carry the mind of truth. With the spiritual mind alone, your life will be as it is written: “Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth” (II Timothy 3:7). You will be as the many that claim they know the truth because they read the Scriptures. But how can you know that which you do not understand? And how can you understand without the knowledge of the truth, which is the testimony of Jesus Christ? Jesus said, “God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth”.


How many of you actually hear what you read, to invoke every word into thought? Here is an example: In the Scripture of St. John 4:24: The words “in spirit and in truth” show essential: but the word “must” show necessity. Is essential greater than necessity? Or is essential the prelude to necessity? Let the so-called doctors of philosophy contend with this wisdom if they can: for I come before you without a doctorate degree, or a master’s degree, or a bachelor’s degree, neither an associate degree; but with the true knowledge of Jesus Christ, which come by way of the Spirit of Truth, whose path is found in common sense. Let no man downplay the value of common sense: for it is the first knowledge given to man from God. For it is written: “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God” (St. John 1:1). We have the knowledge of God because of the Word of God given to Adam in his creation. The Word of God is Jesus Christ, who was with us from the beginning. For is it not written, that, the first Adam was made a living soul; and the last Adam a quickening spirit? (I Corinthians 15:45) And is it not written: “The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second is the Lord from heaven” (I Corinthians 15:47). So we learn the knowledge of God, not by spirit, but by spirit and truth. And if a man should ask, What be the truth? I say unto that man and all in need of an answer: The Truth is the testimony of Jesus Christ, which is every word found in the Holy Bible with red letters. For no man can come unto the Father but by Jesus Christ: and none was perfect but Jesus Christ. So take the words of no man above the testimony of Jesus Christ: for Paul so wrote, “For we know in part, and we prophesy in part. But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away” (I Corinthians 13: 9-10).


Do you not know that perfect, which is the testimony of Jesus Christ, has returned upon the earth, in the Spirit of the regeneration of Jesus Christ and his apostles? I bring nothing new to the testimony of Christ, which was, is, and is to come. Those who hear me not, refuse the truth, because the truth is not in them. I am sent to receive the saints, and to lead them out from the shadows of death, that they may receive the crown of life. My love is for the believing Jew and the converted Gentile, whose spirits are from the past, that walk in the present, and shall live in the future. I am not sent to waste time; but to be patient, and endure, and trust in the Word.


He that has an open ear among those that are against me: let him hear, as I recite the words of Job, whose words are in the spirit and truth of my own: “LO, mine eye hath seen all this, mine ear hath heard and understood it. What ye know, the same do I know also: I am not inferior unto you.


Surely I would speak to the Almighty, and I desire to reason with God. But ye are forgers of lies, ye are all physicians of no value. O that ye would altogether hold your peace! and it should be your wisdom.


Hear now my reasoning, and hearken to the pleadings of my lips.


Will ye speak wickedly for God? and talk deceitfully for him? Will ye accept his person? will ye contend for God?


Is it good that he should search you out? or as one man mocketh another, ye so mock him? He will surely reprove you, if ye do secretly accept persons?


Shall not his excellency make you afraid? and his dread fall upon you?


Your remembrances are like unto ashes, your bodies to bodies of clay. Hold your peace, let me alone, that I may speak, and let come on me what will.


Wherefore do I take my flesh in my teeth, and put my life in mine hand? Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him. He also shall be my salvation: for an hypocrite shall not come before him.


Hear diligently my speech, and my declaration with your ears. Behold now, I have ordered my cause; I know that I shall be justified.


Who is he that will plead with me? for now, if I hold my tongue, I shall give up the ghost. Only do not two things unto me: then will I not hide myself from thee. Withdraw thine hand far from me: and let not thy dread make me afraid. Then call thou, and I will answer: or let me speak, and answer thou me.


How many are mine iniquities and sins? make me to know my transgression and my sin. Wherefore hidest thou thy face, and holdest me for thine enemy?


Wilt thou break a leaf driven to and fro? and wilt thou pursue the dry stubble? For thou writest bitter things against me, and makest me to possess the iniquities of my youth.


Thou puttest my feet also in the stocks, and lookest narrowly unto all my paths; thou settest a print upon the heels of my feet. And he, as a rotten thing, consumeth, as a garment that is moth eaten” (Job 13:1-28).


Indeed I am carried about without respect of men: neither acknowledging my authority, nor looking me in the eye: but speaking great things against me behind my back. These are even my flesh and blood; saying in their heart that I am lost, and confused, and misled.


I challenge them not: neither do I pity them. For they have chosen their own judgment: and flesh and blood alone has no place with me. So I am not prone to sympathy for the devil no matter whose flesh he inhabit: But many shall be snared by the devil because of their pity and sympathy for a love one that is now led by the spirit of darkness. Be not a fool to fall into the bed of the foolish: for the line has been drawn: and the sides are set. One way is Truth: the other way is Falsehood. Let a man have the wisdom to know the way of truth.


I look among the inhabitants of the earth, and I see men franticly running to their churches, seeking the word of God, only to be snared by the quicksand of Falsehood. Surely they cannot behave righteously in the house of God when they do not know the word of God. For if they knew the word of God, then they would know that the church of the living God is the pillar and ground of Truth. For is it not written: “But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth” (I Timothy 3:15). So what be the church you seek, if it be not made on the ground truth?


I call unto my brothers and sisters in Christ: Let us open our Holy Bibles this Sabbath to Job 27:2-23: and let us Read and Hear the words that came from one of the seven spirits in me: “As God liveth, who hath taken away my judgment; and the Almighty, who hath vexed my soul; All the while my breath is in me, and the spirit of God is in my nostrils; My lips shall not speak wickedness, nor my tongue utter deceit.


God forbid that I should justify you: till I die I will not remove mine integrity from me. My righteousness I hold fast, and will not let it go: my heart shall not reproach me so long as I live.


Let mine enemy be as the wicked, and he that riseth up against me as the unrighteous. For what is the hope of the hypocrite, though he hath gained, when God taketh away his soul? Will God hear his cry when trouble cometh upon him? Will he delight himself in the Almighty? will he always call upon God?


I will teach you by the hand of God: that which is with the Almighty will I not conceal. Behold, all ye yourselves have seen it; why then are ye thus altogether vain?


This is the portion of a wicked man with God, and the heritage of oppressors, which they shall receive of the Almighty. If his children be multiplied, it is for the sword: and his offspring shall not be satisfied with bread. Those that remain of him shall be buried in death: and his widows shall not weep.


Though he heap up silver as the dust, and prepare raiment as the clay; He may prepare it, but the just shall put it on, and the innocent shall divide the silver.


He buildeth his house as a moth, and as a booth that the keeper maketh. The rich man shall lie down, but he shall not be gathered: he openeth his eyes, and he is not.


Terrors take hold on him as waters, a tempest stealeth him away in the night.


The east wind wind carrieth him away, and he departeth: and as a storm hurleth him out of his place. For God shall cast upon him, and not spare: he would fain flee out of his hand. Men shall clap their hands at him, and shall hiss him out of his place”.


Brethren of mine: I speak that which the Lord has given me to speak, that the world might see His Spirit in me: for the wisdom of His words surely give sight of His presence. And though I am a man, and not a child, I am made a child by the conversion of Christ, and by my acceptance of the Spirit of Truth. For unto the Father we are as little children, always subject to His authority and will. And in the meekness of our Spirit, we humble ourselves to void ourselves of pride and high-mindedness. And be not confused: for as it is written: “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” (I Corinthians 13:11): so must it be. But such is when I stand as a man before the earth: But when I stand before the Father, I stand as a little child, even though I am a man; and as one of the children of Israel.


Brethren of mine: The Scriptures are not written with contradictions, neither without literal intent, neither is there Scriptures missing. Men teach these things to justify their false interpretations, that they might deceive the earth, to worship openly in falsehood. As with all things, wisdom and common sense must be applied to the understanding of the Scriptures. Moreover, perfect and pure is the testimony that came directly from the mouth of Jesus Christ. Thus, all that is written in red letters in the Holy Bible is to be taken literally: because it is to be followed by the letter. But even in taking things literally, common sense and the wisdom of understanding, which come from the Spirit of Truth, must be applied. For even as we must have the wisdom and common sense to know what we can and cannot change: we also must have the wisdom and common sense to know what we can and cannot take literally.


Brethren of mine: I give this testimony for Jesus Christ, in the Spirit of the words spoken by Jesus Christ: “Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven. And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me. But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.


Woe unto the world because of offences! for it must needs be that offences come; but woe to that man by whom the offence cometh!


Wherefore if thy hand or thy foot offend thee, cut them off, and cast them from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life halt or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into everlasting fire.


And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire.


Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven. For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost.


How think ye? if a man have an hundred sheep, and one of them be gone astray, doth he not leave the ninety and nine, and goeth into the mountains, and seeketh that which is gone astray? And if so be that he find it, verily I say unto you, he rejoiceth more of that sheep, than of the ninety and nine which went not astray.


Even so it is not the will of your Father which is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish. Moreover if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother. But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established. And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell it unto the church: but if he neglect to hear the church, let him be unto thee as an heathen man and a publican” (St. Matthew 18: 3-17).


Brethren of mine: There are those that say, Jesus did not preach against the Roman government: but what be a publican? And is it not written in the gospel of St. John: “Then gathered the chief priests and the Pharisees a council, and said, What do we? for this man doeth many miracles. If we let him thus alone, all men will believe on him: and the Romans shall come and take away both our place and nation” (St. John 11: 47-48). So if we use our common sense, which we must, to understand the Scriptures: We know that Jesus Christ was preaching against the Roman establishment; because if he wasn’t, Why would the Jewish leadership fear the Romans would come and take away their place and nation?


Be not mistaken: for Jesus preached both against the Jewish leadership and the Roman government. He brought forth a spiritual and social revolution in the name of Christ before the world. His perfectness and purity was every word that proceeded from his mouth. He was understood by few, and mistook by many. But here is the mystery and wisdom of his flesh: It is written: “And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life? And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none is good, save one, that is, God” (St. Luke 17:18-19).


Brethren of mine: Men speculate on the missing years of Jesus Christ; even his birth. But I hold the wisdom of that mystery in the Lamb’s book of life. Besides, all that is of necessity to you is written in the Gospels and the book of Revelation: Pray for the Spirit of Understanding and you shall receive understanding if the heart of your mind is righteous.


Brethren of mine: I give this testimony for Jesus Christ in the Spirit of Prophecy: There has never been, nor will there be, a man greater than Jesus Christ. Even Melchisedec was made like unto the Son of God (Hebrews 7: 1-4). How great then is Jesus Christ, to be called our Lord and Savior? For was he not seen as dead in flesh by witnesses, then risen to life, to walk in flesh before witnesses, then ascend in a cloud to his throne in heaven before witnesses? How great is this man that we know in the English language as Jesus Christ? Is he not the all and above all? For will he not bring ten thousand of his holy angels to judge the living and the dead? Will he not make war on the armies of men, to crush them like ants under the feet of a stomping man? Will he not expose all lies and falsehood on the earth by the sanctity of His Holy Spirit that he bless upon his faithful servants? For what be his testimony: that came yesterday, and is today, and will be tomorrow?


Let us turn our Holy Bibles to St. Luke 21: 8-36: and let us Read and Hear the words that came directly from the mouth of Jesus Christ: “Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them. But when ye shall hear of wars and commotions, be not terrified: for these things must first come to pass; but the end is not by and by.


Then said he unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven. But before all these, they shall lay their hands on you, and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues, and into prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for my name’s sake.


And it shall turn to you for a testimony. Settle it therefore in your hearts, not to meditate before what ye shall answer: For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist.


And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks, and friends; and some of you shall they cause to be put to death. And ye shall be hated of all men for my name’s sake. But there shall not an hair of your head perish. In your patience possess ye your souls.


And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh. Then let them which are in Judaea flee to the mountains; and let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in the countries enter thereinto. For these be the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.


But woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck, in those days! for there shall be great distress in the land, and wrath upon this people. And they shall falll bt the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.


And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.


And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.


And he spake to them a parable; Behold the fig tree, and all the trees; When they now shoot forth, ye see and know of your own selves that summer is now nigh at hand. So likewise ye, when ye see these things come to pass, know ye that the kingdom of God is night at hand.


Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass away, till all be fulfilled. Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.


And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares. For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth. Watch therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man”.


I Cornelius, can give no greater testimony for Jesus Christ, than the testimony already given in the Holy Scriptures, which I have recited before you this Sabbath.
May the Lord add a blessing to the hearer of His Holy Word. Selah.


I leave you this Sabbath with these words from the Spirit of authority that is invested in me:


To the church of God and saints of Christ in Temple Beth-El: The Lord has brought an end to the Plummer dynasty, that you might be led back to your rightful place by a Crowdy, as in the beginning. But you have closed your door to me, to keep me out, as if you can. Your place is not worthy for my feet to tread: so I enter not: but shall bring out those that seek to be brought out; and I shall bring out those that Christ has chosen to come out despite their own lack of will. For before judgment is set on your place, and hell fire engulf you in your falsehood, Christ will save his chosen ones.


To the church of God and saints of Christ that hold the name of my baptism: You have not closed your door to me, but have ignored my testimony. Even my friends among you have become ashamed of me, out of fear that they might lose their seat in your place, which shall not come before Christ without fault. I beseech you out of my love for you, because you have kept the way of the Prophet Crowdy, and upheld the patience of a saint. But what place can you find when you ignore the messenger sent by Christ from the Root of your own seed? If I came not from the church of the Prophet, then be hesitant. But because I come from the church of the Prophet, and from a seed rooted in the beginning; it be a shame and a disgrace to ignore my testimony, which is the same doctrine and way of the Prophet Crowdy, whom you say you abide. So be it: Let judgment be set on every place according to the just due.


To the churches of men around the world: I am sent, and I have spoken, and the Spirit in me shall judge. Peace and Blessings be upon all who hear my testimony, to follow the way that is given.


And let the people say, Amen.
