7 steps a convert has to take on the road: The HIGHWAY of Gods GRACE

.

We are not carried on this road. This justification does not happen automatically, but we must go this Way of the Cross voluntarily, although we will be led by His Spirit (see Romans 8:14).

Step 1: We must believe:

• in the accomplished work (His death/resurrection) for us;
• that He (His Spirit) is almighty to share His victory with us;
• in the preached/spoken Word of the Cross (see Romans 3:21-26).
  

Step 2: We must meet Him/go to Him (see Matthew 11:28-30, Isaiah 1:18)

Step 3: We must receive Him in our hart /life in order for Him to work His accomplished work in us through the washing in His blood: through His baptism with His fire (see Matthew 3:11-12, Revelation 3:20).

Step 4: We must be willing to die to our old sinful nature (see Luke 9:23-25, Malachi 3:1-3, 1 Peter 2:24).

Step 5: We must hunger/thirst for the NEW LIFE[1], the Christ-like nature, the Godly nature, He wants to give to us until (we reach) perfection (see Matthew 5:6, Philippians 3:10-14, 2 Peter 1:3-4, Ephesians 4:13).

Step 6: We must follow Him obediently on this road (see John 3:36).

Step 7: We must separate ourselves from all sin and temptation and must be willing to walk circumspectly in this world (see 2 Corinthians 6:14-18, 2 Corinthians 7:1, Luke 1:17).

Give Jesus your heart

.

For a threshingfloor, for the personal purification of your old man/person, in order that you do not fall under His judgment.

2 Samuel 24:20-25 "And Araunah looked, and saw the king and his servants coming on toward him: and Araunah went out, and bowed himself before the king on his face upon the ground. And Araunah said, Wherefore is my lord the king come to his servant? And David said, To buy the threshingfloor of thee, to build an altar unto the Lord, that the plague may be stayed from the people.And Araunah said unto David, Let my lord the king take and offer up what seemeth good unto him: behold, here be oxen for burnt sacrifice and threshing instruments and other instruments of the oxen for wood. All these things did Araunah, as a king, give unto the king. And Araunah said unto the king, The Lord thy God accept thee. And the king said unto Araunah, Nay; but I will surely buy it of thee at a price: neither will I offer burnt offerings unto the Lord my God of that which doth cost me nothing. So David bought the threshingfloor and the oxen for fifty shekels of silver. And David built there an altar unto the Lord, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings. So the Lord was intreated for the land, and the plague was stayed from Israel."

God came with judgment over Israel on account of the sin of the census, which David had organized. It was a sin of pride of life. God answered this committed sin by sending pestilence over Israel, as a result of which 70,000 Israelites died.

In these last, sinful days God's anger will, in ever increasing measure, also come over the world and unrepentant Christianity. God's wrath is to come over The Netherlands too; this country that leads the world with its sinful laws, such as the laws of the homosexual marriage, euthanasia and other wicked practices.

David had to appease God's wrath with a burnt offering which he was to bring on Araunah's (or Ornan's) threshingfloor. A burnt offering is a voluntary sacrifice and is a type of the voluntary offering we have to bring to God for the deliverance of our sinful heart and life on the basis of Jesus' sacrifice on Calvary, in order that we no longer should live under His burning wrath, and that we might be protected from His judgments.
A burnt sacrifice had to be completely burned to ASHES. Nothing was to be left. This means NOTHING is to be left of our sinful heart and life. Everything has to be burned away in the Fire of God's Holy Spirit if we want to escape His judgments.
In 1 Corinthians 5 verses 6-8 it is written: "a little yeast (sin) will spoil the whole dough (new life)." All sin must be burned in the Fire of the Spirit of Jesus Christ.
Matthew 3:11-12 "I (John the Baptist) baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire: Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor (of our heart and life), and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire."

On a threshingfloor chaff was separated from the corn/wheat. Chaff is the type of the old, sinful, natural life we have to lose to Jesus; and corn/wheat is the type of the New, Divine life we will receive from Jesus. We have to be completely delivered from our natural, i.e. sinful being: the sinful state of the natural man/person.

Ephesians 2:1-3 "And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins; Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience; Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others."

1 John 2:15-17 "Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever."

A person consists of body, soul and spirit. The sins of the body (flesh) are: the desires (lusts) of our flesh which we commit with our five senses and which we then misuse and make as many idols of. The sins of our soul are the desires of the eyes: the pursuit of luxuries, property, money and wealth; of material things.

The sins of the spirit are: the pride of life, pride, arrogance, conceit, dominance over other people. We have to lose all these sins to Jesus by confessing them, by surrendering them to Him.

We find bible verses that deal on this subject in:

Proverbs 28:13-14 "He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy. Happy is the man that feareth alway: but he that hardeneth his heart shall fall into mischief."

Isaiah 59:1-2 "Behold, the Lord's hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear: But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear."

1 John 1:9 "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."

The need of deliverance from the sinful nature.

Besides confession and surrender/subjection we also have to undergo the working of His Spirit's Fire. It is necessary, but not enough, for the deliverance of our sins, to believe in His offer and in His power to deliver from sins.

John 3:36 "He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him."

It is also necessary, but not enough, to have ourselves immersed in His death and resurrection through the (water)baptism. Our redemption from sin does NOT happen AUTOMATICALLY after we have done all these things. We also have to be willing to be baptized in His Fire by the Holy Spirit.

We did read Matthew 3:11-12; we will now go to Malachi 3:1-4:

"Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, even the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in: behold, he shall come, saith the Lord of hosts. But who may abide the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appeareth? for he is like a refiner's fire, and like fullers' soap: And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver: and he shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver, that they may offer unto the Lord an offering in righteousness. Then shall the offering of Judah and Jerusalem be pleasant unto the Lord as in the days of old, and as in former years."

Our surrender, as Arauna's (or Ornan's), is to be complete (100%), in order that He burn away our old life unto the foundations thereof.

Isaiah 61:8 a "For I the Lord love judgment, I hate robbery for burnt offering (namely a burnt sacrifice that is not completely burned up)..."

A milder statement than the burning in His Fire, is the washing in His Blood, but this, in fact, means the same thing. We are to undergo voluntarily the Spirit of purification, because we have a free will and God will not go against this free will of ours. We are to carry/bear our cross voluntarily; this means: we must be willing to die to our personal sins, which sins we are to overcome in Jesus' strength.

Jesus defeated satan through His sacrifice on the cross, He gained the victory over him, but we have to overcome our personal sins and our sinful life ourselves with the help of Jesus, and on the basis of our faith in His sacrifice on the cross. For this purpose we are to take up our cross voluntarily; this means we are to be willing to die to our sinful being.

Luke 9:23-25: "And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me. For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it. For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be cast away?"

Who shall climb the mountain of the Lord?

.














Psalm 24 verses 1-10:
"The earth is the Lord's, and the fullness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein. For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods. Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord? or who shall stand in his holy place? He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully. He shall receive the blessing from the Lord, and righteousness from the God of his salvation. This is the generation of them that seek him, that seek thy face, O Jacob. Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in. Who is this King of glory? The Lord strong and mighty, The Lord mighty in battle. Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift them up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in. Who is this King of glory? The Lord of hosts, he is the King of glory."

Here the psalmist asks: "Who shall climb the mountain of the Lord?" The answer is: "He that has clean hands, and a pure heart; who has not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully." (verse 4)
The Lord created the earth and man, but unfortunately man has fallen into sin. Satan planted the cancer of sin into the nature of man and made him a lost creature. Without the redeeming help from the Almighty all of manhood is lost.
We need the redeeming help from the Saviour; we must allow Him to do His work of salvation in us. We must let Him into our heart and being in order for Him to do this work in us. If we do this in faith satan has to let go of us, because the Lord won the victory over him and the power of sin on Calvary. This victory must be proclaimed/broadcast to all people in order that they, after letting Him realize their personal conversion in their heart and life, through faith in the power of His victory, will themselves become victors/conquerors over the sin in their heart, thinking and life.In this way the whole of mankind must be delivered from Satan’s claws for God created the world and it belongs to Him only.
Let us have another look at above question: “Who shall climb the mountain of the Lord?”

Whoever

1. is clean of hands;
2. is pure of heart;
3. does not lift up his soul unto vanity;
4. does not swear deceitfully.

Thus: only they that are

• clean of hands,
• pure of heart,
• pure of soul, and
• pure of tongue;

In other words, they that live a pure life inwardly and outwardly. Thus no one among men, for we all sin. We do need the salvation of God's Saviour. This salvation, however, does not happen automatically after we have believed in Him and go to church; we are to cooperate in this salvation!
Verse 6 mentions, that we must ask Him, seek His face in prayer. This means, that we must be willing to leave behind our sinful life and convert to Him in willing surrender, if we are to be saved by Him.Thus, we have to meet Him in prayer. In this way He can heal us, body, soul and spirit; quicken us and make us healthy.
Isaiah 1:18 says:

1. “Then come,
2. let us reason together.”

Thus He requires from us a voluntary act: we are to come to Him, seek Him and confess our sins. But this is not enough either. In verse 7 (Psalm 24) it is written: "Lift up your heads, ye gates (gates of our body, soul and spirit)... that the King of glory may come in."
In days of old the hinges of the gates were underneath and the gates had to be lifted up by means of chains: thus, their heads had to be lifted up, that the Saviour/Redeemer could come in. Man consists of body, soul and spirit. So the gate of the body must be opened first: we must be willing to hear the redeeming Word of the Cross, of the shed blood of God's Lamb.
Then, the gate of our soul has to be opened. We are to be willing to accept Him and His salvation of our own free will; we must be willing to be saved.
Finally, the gate of our spirit must be opened. We have to let Him into our heart; we must love Him and His salvation, for the Redeemer must personally bring into effect the work He fulfilled on Calvary in our willing heart and life.
He must be allowed to burn away the sins of our body (flesh), our lusts; and wash them off in His shed blood. We also have to be delivered from the sins of our soul: sinful desires of the eyes for material goods and property, for riches and luxuries. Finally also the sins of our spirit have to be burned away: pride of self, lust for power and haughtiness.
Let this King of glory in, that He deliver you from all these sins; let Him share His victory over all these sins with you. "For," says the Word in this psalm: "He is strong and mighty in battle (namely the battle against sin)." (verse 8)
For this purpose he worked on Calvary an eternal salvation! (Hebrews 9:12). We have to want this, for we have a free will, and He will not torpedo this free will.
John 8:36 says: "If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.”
This is the highway of salvation that the Lamb of God has paved/cleared for us.
Hereafter He will also share His Divine life with us and will pour out His peace, joy and love in our redeemed heart and life, and will make us sons and daughters of God.
This divine life shares with us the struggle against Satan and the salvation of our fellow-man.
That is why this psalm ends with: "Who is the King of glory? The Lord of hosts, He is the King of glory."
Then all of us, whom He thus saved, will form His hosts, God's army, that will fight satan's power and annihilate it.

To God be all glory!! Amen.

Who shall climb the mountain of the Lord - About holiness and purification

Introductory letter

Introduction words

The main purpose of the Bible studies on our website – www.endtime-messenger.com/ – as well as the short studies that we monthly hope to pass on, by a (so-called) newsletter on our Blog ‘The Endtime-messenger', can be summarized in the following Scripture from 2 Corinthians 11 verse 2 (a mixed translation from “King James Version” and “Thompson Chain-Reference”):

"For I am jealous over you with a godly jealousy: for I have espoused you (especially spiritually) to one husband, to Christ, so that I may present you as a pure virgin (as a Bride) to Him."

Christ is coming very soon, to marry His Bride (the so-called 'wise-virgins', see Matt. 25:1-13 and/or note[1]) – in the spirit – to save her, a bit later in time, for the “great tribulation” (i.e. oppression – see Matt. 24:21) that will come over the whole world. This “be taken care of” concerns only His wife (see Rev. 12:6 and 14). But... are we PERSONALLY – and spiritually seen – ready for His coming as our Bridegroom?

This is the reason why the studies that we offer you, are not 'just' Bible studies in a general sense, no, they contain a Message which is intended for all those Christians that expected Jesus Christ (very) soon as 'their' Bridegroom. Many studies on our website contain 'the Message of the cross': And with this we mean that, what is written in 1 Corinthians 2 verse 2: "...Jesus Christ and Him crucified..."! That is: "Jesus Christ and those that – with Him – are crucified! So we should also – in spiritual terms – (want to) be crucified with Him, namely: die too (i.e. set free from) our old, sinful nature!
Many say that this is NOT possible, but Paul, who did this inspired statement, indeed lived ‘a crucified life’. Read intently about his converted life, about his ‘wheeling and dealing’ and you'll 'taste' what a crucified life really means. (And hopefully realize that it is possible to lead a crucified life, and also that it is necessary – and the only Way – if we want to be used by God.) Paul TRULY could say: "I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me" (Gal. 2:20a). This is further clarified in 1 Corinthians 6:19 where it is written: "Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit (in which He lives and is enthroned – i.e. true which He should have complete control/authority, by His Spirit) Who is in you, Whom you have received from God? You are not (longer the ‘boss’) of your own.” Because “those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the sinful nature with its passions and desires." (Gal. 5:24)

The battle against satan[2] and his (power of) sin has been completed/accomplished and conquered by Jesus – on the cross on Calvary – but we, as Christians, must also ‘die on the cross’; must (desire) our old sinful nature to die. This Word of the cross – thus: the (desire) for our old sinful nature to die – is, in the course of time, whisked away/pushed away by satan, but will be preached again with power in the end of times.
The Message of ‘the cross’ is a truth that was rediscovered by Luther (who lived from 1483 till 1546), but – sadly – was lost again later on. This Message WAS and IS not a popular one! Not at all in our present way of thinking/mental world. The ‘flesh’ reigns supreme in our days, in the world, but also in the Church, because also a lot of Christians do still have a lot of desires of the flesh. And thinking in the flesh is the opposite of thinking through the spirit, and also opposite on thinking according to God’s will. Sadly – this has the (logical) result that also the acts and behaviour (the so-called ‘wheeling and dealing’) of many Christians is worldly. But… this Message of ‘dead off the flesh' (i.e. our old sinful nature to die) will be put forward strongly – by Gods Spirit – in the end-times. And, this Message, this ‘Gospel of the cross', is truly: ‘the FULL Gospel’!And this ‘FULL Gospel-message’ is necessary, because… God is going to judge this world, and His judgment starts by “the house of God” (see 1 Peter 4:17). The “house of God” is the image of the (world-wide) Church we belong to, if we believe in Jesus Christ.

But… why should His judgment start by us?Because “the house of God” is not yet ready to receive Jesus Christ as their Heavenly Bridegroom! More than ever before, many Christians (who must be ‘followers’ of Christ) are worldly and do still have (a lot of) desires of the flesh. Read 2 Timothy 3 verse 2-5, where the conclusion is: “For men shall be lovers of their own selves… lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God: having a form of godliness”, because they still like to follow their own desires of the flesh. Read also Revelation 3 verse 15-19, where is written: “because you are (spiritually) lukewarm… I am about to spit you out of My mouth”! A lot of Christians are thinking that ‘believing’ is more than enough. But, to belong (a bit later in time) to the PURE and spotless Bride of Christ (see Eph. 5:27) that is NOT enough. Because, to belong to the Bride (or Bride-church) of Christ we have TRUELY to lead a crucified live, dead to our sinful passions and desires. And if we do not work on that spiritual state, then the judgment of God will come over us, which means that we will come in the “great tribulation” (see Matt. 24:21) because we are (spiritually) not ready as Bride, because to be clear – Christ cannot and will not marry an UNCLEAN Bride. It is not for nothing that Jesus, in Matthew 7 verse 23, says: “…Away from Me, you evildoers”! And there, in the “great tribulation”, they – the ones that are NOT ready to meet Christ as their Bridegroom – shall (literally) pay for their faith in Christ with their own lives (the so-called martyr’s dead). The Antichrist namely will kill all Christians who are left behind, during his 3½ years dominion on this earth. And that will be God’s judgment over “the house of God”, about all Christians who stay disobedient to His Message of ‘the cross’, a Message which will be heard (again) – loud and clearly – in the last days.

But, the above-mentioned will NOT say that these Christians, who will come in the “great tribulation” (i.e. oppression – see Matt. 24:21) and will be killed by the Antichrist, are lost. No, because, if they will stay in (believe in) Jesus Christ (till the end of their earthly life) and if they also will stay strong to refuse the mark of the beast – the main reason why the Antichrist will kill them – they will be saved for eternity.

We can split-up/classify the end-time in so-called ‘phases’, see the scheme underneath, and now (according to us) we are in phase 1, but also in the beginning of phase 2. At almost every phase, one or more studies are mentioned, studies you can find on our website and which you can download for FREE, if you want to.

We hope to put short Bible studies, about 2 times a month, on our Blog (which you can reach through our website www.endtime-messenger.com/ ).


We wish you God’s Blessings,

A. Klein

*********************************************************************************************************

A brief summary of the end-time scenario:
This is only a short explanation, when you want to know more, you can read the recommended studies (see the notes) or you can send us an e-mail.

Phase1:Problems in the world are increasing.[3]
Think of problems in the field of environment and various natural disasters, but also all kinds of (growing) economic, political and problems of spiritual nature.Phase 2:Mental (and spiritual) preparation of the Bride.[4]
The Bride will be made similar – in the spirit – to her Bridegroom. First hidden. Later revealed and, visible for others (This is the real: Participation at the Marriage Supper of the Lamb[5] – see Revelation 19:9 of the KJV. Meaning: Being prepared to let all the old and sinful ways COMPLETELY die in our hearts and lives!).
Just as we should not take on an unequal yoke in marriage, the same and even more so applies to Christ (read Revelation 19:7b-9 and Ephesians 5:26-27).
Phase 3:War of Gog and Magog.
Read Ezekiel, Chapter 38 and 39. With Gog, Magog, Tubal and Meshech we refer to Russia and China (and presumably North Korea and Iran). With Sheba, Dedan, the merchants of Tarshish and all their young lions we refer to all ‘Christian’ countries.
Phase 4:A ‘great ‘man’ (or woman) will appear on the world stage posing as a world leader who apparently will solve a lot of problems in the world.
See for further explanation Phase 6 and 7.
Phase 5:The latter-rain revival begins.[6]
The outpouring of the Holy Spirit into the hearts and lives of the Bride will cause a great revival resulting into a bountiful harvest of souls (see Joel 2:23b and 28-29).
Phase 5a:The Wedding of the Lamb.[7]
Just before the great tribulation Jesus will come back (INvisible) for his Bride – in the spirit – to marry her. The marriage of Christ and his Bride (or Bride church) is called “the great Mystery"[8] (see Eph. 5:32)
Phase 6:Start of the 1st period of 3½ years reign of the earlier mentioned world leader, who seemingly seem to bring peace to the world.
This will be the 1st period of 3½ years where the Antichrist is already ruling but where most people see him (falsely) as peace ruler or Messiah, as the world leader who seems to solve a lot of world problems. This will be followed by the 2nd period of 3½ years (see Phase 7) in which the Antichrist will show his true face. Think of the biblical warning: “For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them” (see 1 Thess. 5:3).
Phase 7:Start of the great tribulation of 3½ years.
The aforementioned world leader is now FULLY owned by satan, and so transformed into a VERY CRUEL world leader, the Antichrist (the opponent of Christ and Christians). And this will be clearly noticeable to all sincere Christians. They will be persecuted (and many of them will be slain). But... God will come to rescue many of them. See the next stage.
(For the Jews / Israelites God has another plan – see Phase 7c).
Phase 7a:The caught up (unto God) of the 144,000 and the fled of the Bride.Just after the start of the great tribulation, the male son – the 144,000 from the 12 tribes of Israel[9] – will be taken into heaven (see Rev. 12:4b-5).
Soon after that the Bride will be taken away – the so-called removal – to the desert, where she will be kept and fed by God for 1260 days (see Rev. 12:6 and 14).
Phase 7b:Martyrdom of the remaining Christians during 3½ year great tribulation.Christians (the so-called forecourt Christians – see Rev. 11:1-2), the ones who will NOT participate in the fled of the Bride, and due to deficiencies and/or imperfections in their faith[10] NOT belong to the Bride of Christ, will – if they refuse the sign of the beast – die the martyr death during the great tribulation, the 3½ year reign of the Antichrist. The 42 months (or 3½ years or 1278 days) of Revelation 11:2.
Phase 7c:The 2 witnesses of God in Israel (see Rev. 11:3-12).During the great tribulation of 1260 days, 2 special witnesses, personally sent by God (probably Moses and Elijah) will come to Israel. This will convince many Jews / Israelites to a conversion to the true faith in Jesus Christ, THE Messiah.
Phase 7d:The sign of the beast.
All the other people in the great tribulation will adopt the sign of the beast, which will make them possessed (fully taken in possession) by the Antichrist. This is irreversible for them. Those who adopt the sign of the beast can NEVER repent and have a conversion.
Phase 8:Christ is coming back to earth[11] – visible to all people – with His army of 144,000 soldiers.>>>This return signals the end of the great tribulation.
>>>Desiest Christians of all ages (and the Old Testament believers) are raised from the dead.
>>>The Bride – who until that moment has been kept alive on this earth[12] – will now, together with the ones resurrected from the death, in a point of time be changed (see 1 Thess. 4:14-17).
Phase 9:The start of the Millennium (the 1000-year reign of God).[13]
During this Millennium of God’s Peace, ALL Christians will be brought to the same spiritual level: This applies to the ones who barely made it into the Kingdom of God and the so-called saints of all ages, the perfect Bride and everything – in the spiritual sense – in between.
The Bible clearly states that “no flesh and blood” will inherit the Kingdom of God. So there will be no conversions during the Millennium. Besides, all living godless people – those who adopted the sign of the beast – will be slain by Jesus (and the 144,000) at His return (see Rev. 19:11-21).
Phase 10:The new heaven and new earth.[14]
After the Millennium, the Government of God will start on the new earth(s), the (new) habitable planets created by God. In this new world(’s) we will reign with Christ over the then created mankind. He as THE King and we as kings. He as THE Lord, we as lords. See also Luke 19:17b and 19 “you shall have authority over 10 or 5 cities”[15]

• If you find our (end-time) studies interesting, we would like it, if you will tell others about our website and/or our Blog.

[1] We write the word satan not with a capital, as it is not a name, but a word meaning opponent or adversary, accuser.
[2] See our study: “The 5 wise and the 5 foolish virgins and their destiny in the end-time”.
[3] See our studies: “God shall shake the Church and the world in the end-time”, “The Day of the Lord (i.e. YaHWeH)”, and “The 7 thunderclaps of Revelation 10:3”.
[4] See our studies: “The 5 wise and the 5 foolish virgins and their destiny in the end-time”, “The victors; over (the power of) sin and satan in the last days”, “The perfection in Christ on earth, in the end-time”, “Soon there will be a Divine Wedding here on earth”, “Sanctification”, “The Divine healing work in the Church of the end-time”, “What God has prepared for those, who love Him”, and “LUKE – The book of the NEW MAN in Christ”.
[5] See our study: “Called by the Spirit of God to take part unto the marriage supper of the Lamb of God…”.
[6] See our study: “The wonderful works of the Holy Spirit in the end-time”.
[7] See our study: “Soon there will be a Divine Wedding here on earth”.
[8] Jesus will come back as BRIDEGROOM for His – already on this earth – cleansed/purifyed Bride. Than the Wedding of the Lamb is a fact and His Wife (called ‘the Bride’ before the Wedding) will become pregnant (thus: AFTER the Wedding) (see Rev. 12:2) of the spiritual sons, the 144,000 (who – in spiritual sense – will “come out of her” by the FULL INDWELLING and WORKING of the Holy Spirit) because of the intercourse/relation (in the spirit) with her Bridegroom.
In natural life – after intercourse, impregnation and birth – a baby becomes visible after it was hidden for 9 months in the womb. Spiritually the male son is at first also present, but still hidden in the Body of the Bride-church (because “the male son” is still among them), but suddenly, just as a natural birth, this son will be VISIBLE (i.e. “the manifestation of the sons of God” – see Ro. 8:18-19). So, it is not “the birth of a son” who – spiritually – still has to grow, but this son will be visible (i.e. manifest) in the stature of “a FULL-GROWN” (i.e. PERFECT) son. This son (the 144.000) has (spiritually) come to “the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ” (see Eph. 4:3).
[9] See our study: “Thou, people of Israel, wake up!”.
[10] Those Christians who – spiritually – do not come up to Eph. 5 verse 27: “…a radiant church, (spiritually) without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless” and Revelation 19 verse 7: “…His bride has made herself ready”.· See our study: “The 5 wise and the 5 foolish virgins and their destiny in the end-time”.
[11] See our study: “A closer look at Christ’s Second Coming”.
[12] “…we (i.e. the [members of the] Bride) which are alive and remain (on this earth) unto the (visible) coming of the Lord...” (see 1 Th. 4:15).
[13] During the Millennium there will only live children of God on this earth, and these ALL will have received RESURRECTION-bodies. ALL OTHERS (the unbelievers and godless humans) will be killed by the visible Coming of the Lord Jesus Christ (see Rev. 14:9-11, 19:21). No flesh and blood will inherit the Kingdom of God and, thus, also not enter the Millennium (see 1 Co. 15:50).
In the Millennium there will be a LOVE-DOMINIUM, just as a (good) mother will “RULE”, in love, over here children, but “SERVE” them as well. See Isa. 32:1, Ps. 45:17, Mt. 23:11, Mk. 9:35, Lk. 19:16-19, 1 Pe. 2:9, Rev. 1:6, 5:10, 20:4.
During the Millennium there will be PRIEST-KINGS, who will rule with Christ in LOVE (Christ as the "King of kings" and as the "Lord of lords") over the other children of God. (Because, there are CROWNED and UNCROWNED in this Kingdom of God.)
Christ will be the KING OD THE EARTH (see Ps. 2:6-8, 45:2-9, Isa. 9:5-6, 32:1, Jer. 23:5b-6, Zec. 14:9).
He will share His throne with His QUEEN: with those Christians who, by grace, in the last days, ON EARTH will have achieve the status of the PERFECTION IN CHRIST (see Ps. 45:10-16, Rev. 3:21, 14:1-5).
There are also climatic changes. That’s why this earth, already now – a.o. by cataclysm, who increase – will be prepared for its new task during the Millennium of Christ. Because nature will be changed radically/fundamentally during the Millennium (see Zec. 14:6-7, Isa. 30:26).
JERUSALEM will be the CAPITAL OF THE WORLD (see Isa. 31:38-40, Isa. 62:1-7, Zec. 8:3).
There will be PEACE and JUSTICE on earth, the EARTHLY PARADISE will be RESTORED (see Mal. 4:2, Isa. 61:11).Those who want to know more about the Millennium we can recommend our study: “What Scripture teaches about the Millennium of King Jesus”.
[14] After the Millennium, God will create the NEW HEAVEN and the NEW EARTH, for His beatify, on which they, with God’s eternal Son, may rule. See Isa. 65:17-25, 11:6-9 and Rev. 21:1-8. The NEW JERUSALEM (i.e. the Bride) will come down, on these NEW EARTH, from the heaven (see Rev. 21:9-27). And the ETERNAL STREAM OF LIVING WATER, namely GOD’S HOLY SPIRIT, will flow through whole this NEW Creation of God and FULFILL her till all eternity (i.e. for ever and ever) (see Rev. 22:1-5).
