During the Festival of Tabernacles I implored the many thousands
of members to join me in a RENEWED START in this all-important WORK
OF GOD. The church must be REVITALIZED--REINSPIRED--REDEDICATED--
REIMBUED enthusiastically by God's Holy Spirit in the most IMPORTANT
WORK on the earth in 1,900 years.
This is not my work or YOURS--but the Work of the living God!
I am only the human instrument to whom God committed His GREAT
COMMISSION--the purpose and reason for the church in this present
END-TIME--to proclaim to the whole world as a witness to ALL
NATIONS the gospel-announcement of the soon-coming KINGDOM OF GOD.
REMEMBER THIS! Adam and Eve rejected God's government over
them. They rejected the knowledge of the WAY TO LIVE--the way of
GOOD--and instead they chose the way of EVIL.
They thus cut themselves off from God. They had NOT been given
eternal life. They were driven from the Garden of Eden, and God
put angels with flaming swords to guard the TREE OF LIFE, lest man
take to himself eternal life. In other words, man's SIN--REBELLION,
REJECTION OF GOD'S GOVERNMENT--put a BARRIER between man and God.
Man therefore is CUT OFF from God.
God marked out a 7,000-year period. The first 6,000 years God
left Satan here as the god of this world, the god of this world's
religions. Satan is busy swaying ALL MANKIND (except the few that
God is now especially calling) into HIS WAY of SELF-centeredness,
contrary to God's way. For the way of God is the way of love--of
giving, helping, serving, sharing and obedience to the law of GOD'S
GOVERNMENT.
During all those 6,000 years, now almost at an END, God has kept
"HANDS OFF" man's society and man's government. Man has formed
his own system of government swayed by Satan, based on the way of
"GET"--that is of vanity, lust and greed--of jealousy and envy--of
competition, strife, violence, destruction and WAR--of resentment
against AUTHORITY.
Then, after the 6,000 years of misrule, God will send CHRIST
in all His S U P R E M E G L O R Y as the Almighty CREATOR--and
KING of Kings--to rule all nations with the GOVERNMENT OF GOD.
Satan will be imprisoned, unable to influence humanity (spiritually).
Christ will bring people to repent from Satan's WAY and turn them
to the God-centered WAY OF LOVE--the way of GOD'S GOVERNMENT.
Meanwhile during this 6,000 years, God has saved, spiritually,
ONLY Abel, Enoch and Noah in the first 1,900 years up to the Flood.
After the Flood, only Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Joseph, and the
PROPHETS of the nation Israel. GOD NEVER OFFERED SPIRITUAL
SALVATION TO THE NATIONS ISRAEL AND JUDAH. He promised them at
that time for obedience, ONLY material and national blessings.
Then came Jesus Christ with the gospel ANNOUNCING the future
coming KINGDOM OF GOD. Jesus did NOT come on any "soul-saving"
crusade. After three-and-one-half years of ANNOUNCING His GOVERN-
MENT, only 120 had accepted and become His followers (Acts 1:15).
He committed His GREAT COMMISSION to ANNOUNCE His coming KINGDOM to
