Pamphlet 1646 Micah 11-1
What does it take to bring our people
to the realization that Christianity is not a religion?
What does it take to show our brothers and sisters that
straying from the Word of God
is the root cause of our nation's ills as we can "see"
our moral foundation crumble
and our national sovereignty being taken away by the
Beast of Revelation 13:1, i.e. the NWO?
In today's study we are going to discover what it is that
our Father would have us do, and you know what?
It is not just going to church and giving sacrifice of
tithes and offerings
and participating in wonderful humanitarian works in
the name of Christ.
In fact, one can do all those things and on the day of
the great wedding find himself or herself on the outside looking in.
Here are Jesus Christ's own words:
Matthew
7:21-23 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.
Do you know what your Father's "will" is? It is His
Word!
And He wants us to be just and love Him and to humbly
walk with Him,
i.e. abide in His Word (Micah 6:8).
Religious ceremonies and rituals and church activities
and following after the traditions of men
while ignoring His Word are simply NOT what pleases Him.
[22]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?
These MANY are our Christian brothers and sisters
who would rather listen to preachers and ministers than
seek Him through His Word.
[23]
And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye
that work iniquity.
He never knew them because they never knew Him.
If you say you know the Living Word of God
and yet you do NOT know the Written Word of God you are
sorely deceived,
no matter how many years you have faithfully attended
Bethel, which means "House of God" in Hebrew, i.e. church.
Have you ever read what our Father said long, long ago
concerning Bethel (church)?
Amos
5:4 For thus saith the LORD unto the house of Israel, Seek
ye me, and
ye shall live:
How do you seek the LORD? Through His Word!
[5]
But
seek not Bethel, nor enter into Gilgal, and pass not
to Beer-sheba: for Gilgal shall surely go into captivity, and Bethel shall
come to nought.
You can go to church (Bethel) regularly for years
and years and more years and still be spiritually slaughtered
with the majority when the Assyrian (Satan as the spurious
messiah) comes upon the land.
That's what happened to our forefathers!
So, you can follow in their footsteps and set up altars
all day and all night, such as at Gilgal,
and you can make covenants and pledges all the way to
Beer-sheba,
but unless in these latter days you seek
the LORD thy God through His Word, not man's,
with all your heart and all your soul, your little old
church isn't going to do you a bit of good on "That Day",
the Day we have been reading about here in Micah!
The sad part is that the life giving instructions to Seek
Him and obey His Voice,
not man's traditions, was given to our people and recorded
in His Word long, long ago!
Here it is in the Book of Deuteronomy:
Deut.
4:29 But if from thence thou shalt seek the LORD thy God,
thou shalt find him, if thou seek him with all thy heart
and with all thy soul.
Do you "Seek Him" or do you
"Seek Bethel"?
Are you a Christ-man or are you
a Church-man?
You see, it doesn't matter what some preacher may tell
you,
or a movie or book some man produced and left behind
may say,
you are going through the tribulation, either as a witness
for Jesus Christ,
with your feet firmly planted in the field, or as a "witless"
for Satan with your head somewhere in the clouds!
You see, both the wise virgins and the foolish virgins
go through the night, the hour of darkness.
Haven't you read about them (Mat. 25:1-13)?
However, even though we all, the good, the bad, and the
ugly, go through the tribulation of the false-christ,
those who seek the true Christ in these latter days and
are obedient to His Voice,
which is His Word, have nothing to fear.
For as it is written in Rev. 9 that only those who have
NOT the seal of God in their foreheads
shall be harmed (spiritually slaughtered by the king
of Babylon, Satan).
[30]When
thou art in tribulation, and all these things are come upon thee, even
in
the latter days, if thou turn to the LORD thy God,
and shalt be obedient unto his voice;
Seek His Voice in these latter days, the Voice of
the Shepherd, the One who can unlock the scriptures (Rev. 3:7)
and He will open the seals of truth to your mind.
The hour is late and His Great Voice is even speaking
as a trumpet this very day, for the Lord's Day approaches quickly.
Rev. 1:10 "I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and
heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet".
If you are a virgin (the symbolic term for a Christian
waiting for the wedding of the true Bridegroom)
then He has spoken specifically TO YOU in Revelation
chapters two and three.
Go there and listen to the trumpet.
[31]
(For the LORD thy God is a merciful God;) He will not forsake thee, neither
destroy thee, nor forget the covenant of thy fathers which He sware unto
them.
Our Father is a loving Father but it is up to you
to decide to align with His Word
or continue on your own path to desolation.
He has "set before you life and death, blessing and cursing:
therefore choose life,
that both thou and thy seed may live (Deut. 30:19)".
How do you choose life?
Through the Word of Life (1 Jn. 1:1, Phil. 2:6)!
We just read it in Amos 5:4, "For thus saith the LORD
unto the house of Israel,
Seek ye me, and ye shall
live:"
To study the Bible is the noblest of all pursuits;
to understand it, the highest of all goals.
We pray that with the guidance of the Holy
Spirit, you accomplish both.
