753] [8-28-08] LITTLE flock is YOUNG flock, not having been in existence a long time!
Lu 12:31 But rather seek ye the kingdom of God; and all these things shall be added unto you. Lu 12:32 Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom. Lu 12:33 Sell that ye have, and give alms; provide yourselves bags which wax not old, a treasure in the heavens that faileth not, where no thief approacheth, neither moth corrupteth.

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. Verily I say unto you - The CHURCH - Whatsoever ye The CHURCH shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. Again I say unto you - The CHURCH - That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask [REQUIRE] , it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven. Mat 18.17-19
757] [8-28-08] The CHURCH is the Ekklesia – that is the ASSEMBLY - NOT the assemblers!
*** An individual is not the CHURCH, as ONE person cannot ASSEMBLE by self – and ONE person cannot assemble! Two is the minimum – as Jesus said!
758] [8-29-08] The CHURCH then – believers properly assembled to do the business of GOVERNMENT (even two-or-three of them) – is endowed with the PRESENCE of CHRIST in a UNIQUE WAY to [FROM 1205] To “Assemble” is to Arrange in a Particular & Proper ARRANGEMENT! 1] We do not speak of a Pile of Leaves as being “Assembled”, or a Flock of Birds, a School of Fish, a Bag of Trash, the Trees in a Forrest, 2] Even though all that is supposed to be ‘there’ is there, they are not ASSEMBLED! 3] The people at a house-fire, a train wreck, a wedding or a ballgame are GATHERED, but not ASSEMBLED! 4] The PARTICIPANTS of a Ballgame are ASSEMBLED, the spectators are not 5] The PARTICIPANTS of a Court Room are ASSEMBLED, the spectators are not 6] The PARTICIPANTS of a Congress are ASSEMBLED, the spectators are not 7] The STUDENTS of a Class Room are ASSEMBLED, the spectators are not Church IS Saints Assembled to do the business of GOD’S GOVERNMENT Church IS NOT Believers mobbed together for worship,

764] [8-29-08] With Father God seeing that His Son was Named Joshua [Hebrew] Jesus [Hebrew], we must conclude the relevance of Joshua-Son-of-Nun being a shadow of Jesus-Son-of-Mary yet to come. As such, we must conclude that the book of Joshua reveals direct insight into the Messiah: Jesus of Nazareth!
765] [8-29-08] Importance of the LAW! Who is it for? Now the end [goal] of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned: From which some having swerved, have turned aside unto vain jangling; Desiring to be teachers of the law *; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm. But we know that the law is good, if a man use it lawfully; Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man [THOSE UNDER CHURCH LAW], But for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine [THAT IS THOSE WHO ARE NOT UNDER CHURCH LAW, BUT UNDER CIVIL LAW]; According to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, I Tim 1.5-11

767] [8-29-08] But rather seek ye FIRST the kingdom of God; [and when you establish a Godly Kingdom with all working for the common good, loving their neighbor as themselves] all these things shall be added unto you. [BECAUSE you now control the Kingdom, all these things are the natural out- growth.
768] [8-30-08] HOPE, is primarily EXPECTATION in general: it is generic, neither good or bad, neither evil or godly, neither wishing for nor against: rather simply expecting!

769] [8-30-08] Scripture does not say ‘Love is the greatest of all. Rather it says love is the greatest of these three: faith, hope and charity! I-Cor 13:13 And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.
771] [8-30-08] CAPITAL PUNISHMENT modified: Again, when the wicked man turneth away from his wickedness that he hath committed, and doeth that which is lawful and right, he shall save his soul alive.

783] [8-31-08] Had Adam & Eve never eaten of the forbidden Tree they would never have need to eat of the Tree of Life!
Simply obeying God and eating of all other trees would have given them life-that-lasts-forever: not ‘immortality’ but everlasting life!

Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters, neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor & the needy haughty attitudeEze 16.45-51 Thou art thy mother's daughter, that lotheth her husband and her children; and thou art the sister of thy sisters, which lothed their husbands and their children: your mother was an Hittite, and your father an Amorite. And thine elder sister is Samaria, she and her daughters that dwell at thy left hand: and thy younger sister, that dwelleth at thy right hand, is Sodom and her daughters. Yet hast thou not walked after their ways, nor done after their abominations: but, as if that were a very little * thing, Thou wast corrupted more than they in all thy ways. As I live, saith the Lord GOD, Sodom thy sister hath not done, she nor her daughters, as thou hast done, thou and thy daughters. Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters, neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and the needy, and they were haughty committing abomination before me: Therefore I took them away as I saw good.

Every STEP is CHOICE COMPLETELY under your discretion, YOU get to CHOOSE! 823] [9-7-08] To WHOM did Jesus address the question: “Whom do men say that I am?” Specifically, Scripture says to His Disciples. Since Peter answered when Jesus asked who the DISCIPLES said that he was, Jesus did declare him blessed for listening to God and not the powers-that-be of the day. Jesus did not NAME Simon, Peter! Making sense of a very important Scripture! When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, He asked His Disciples, saying, Whom do MEN say that I the Son of man am? He [Jesus] saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? And Simon Peter answered and said, “Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.” [Note this Disciple is ALREADY BEING called Peter] [Note also that Jesus DID NOT immediately change his name, or even refer to him as ‘Peter’ but rather continued to address him as ‘SIMON-son-of-Jona’] And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven. [Jesus made this singular statement to Simon – just as Teachers OFTEN address a student who gives a particularly good answer – THEN He continues with His teaching TO THE GROUP of His Disciples just as HE began the teaching: And I say also unto thee [PLURAL], or [And I say unto thee also, That thou art Peter [little stones], and upon this rock [all of the little stones collectively making a GREAT ROCK] I will build: MY CHURCH! [CHURCH is a GREEK word for a POLITICAL STRUCTURE with just one meaning that had been consistently defined, understood, and practiced for 800 years, and perhaps even longer in isolated cases. [1] Church-Ekklesia is ALWAYS a government of the people. [2] Church-Ekklesia is ALWAYS SEPARATE from the ‘OFFICIAL GOVERNMENT! [3] Church-Ekklesia is ALWAYS a democratic/congregational form of GOVERNMENT! [4] Church-Ekklesia is ALWAYS POLITICAL [5] Church-Ekklesia ALWAYS addresses CIVIL ISSUES & NEEDS! [6] Church-Ekklesia is AMORAL, neither good-or-bad in itself, but reflects the PEOPLE of the Ekklesia: That’s why Jesus DISTINGUISHED His Church-Ekklesia from all other ekklesia’s by declaring it ‘MY CHURCH’ [7] Church-Ekklesia is ALWAYS on the OFFENSE, seeking to overthrow and replace whatever evil abusive form of GOVERNMENT that exists. This AUTOMATIC ‘Church-Ekklesia-is-always-on-the-offense is assumed to be understood as INSEPARABLY INHERENT in the ONLY meaning and understanding the word has EVER HAD, dating back to the days of King David, Solomon & the First Temple! [8] Thus the next words by Jesus ASSUME listeners know HIS CHURCH is ALWAYS on the OFFENSE, ALWAYS seeking to CONQUER & OVERTHROW the evil kingdom, by ATTACKING the walls and gates of its stronghold pictured as a city. [9] Thus Jesus refers to the DEFENSIVE STRENGTH of the enemy government and their city-stronghold: [10] Jesus assures the GATES of HELL SHALL NOT PREVAIL against the CHURCH OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST! [JESUS DECLARES] And the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. And I will give unto THEE [plural - not just Simon alone, for He would soon be dead, and the Church with its work would continue for MILLENNIA, but all of the ‘LITTLE STONES’ collectively] The Keys of the kingdom of heaven: And whatsoever THOU [plural - not just Simon alone, for He would soon be dead, and the Church with its work would continue for MILLENNIA, but all of the ‘LITTLE STONES’ collectively] shalt bind on Earth shall be bound in Heaven: And whatsoever THEE [plural - not just Simon alone, but all ‘LITTLE STONES’ of ALL AGES!

Zech 5.9 832] [9-10-08] ***MAJOR: The renovation of Earth by fire spoken of by Peter is nothing compared to the Flood of Noah as God promised Noah: Ge 8:21 And the LORD smelled a sweet savour; and the LORD said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for man's sake; for the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done. Ge 8:22 While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease. 833] [9-10-08] Many Christian historians and Political science authors say God ordained, and instituted Civil Government with Noah declaring And surely your blood of your lives will I require; at the hand of every beast will I require it, And at the hand of man; at the hand of every man's brother will I require the life of man. Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God made he man. Gen 9.5-6 Firstly, this is given to GODLY people ONLY to exercise over the wicked. Secondly, it was FAMILY responsibility: not COMMUNITY, STATE or NATION to avenge violence. Thirdly, this was a MALE responsibility. 834] [9-10-08] Obviously, CIVIL is NOT a Scriptural word, neither in the Hebrew, Aramaic, nor the Greek. Civil is a Religious heresy, a MYTH, constructed up by those who profess God and want HIS BLESSINGS upon them, but do not want the responsibility of disciplining the rebellious: be it family, friend or foe, neighbor or stranger. The ungodly accept this religious myth, as it grants them - the heathens, pagans, evolutionists, atheists and secular humanists, COMBINED – power over God’s people,. God’s Law to them, and God’s preferred will for them: thus nullifying His blessing to them. 835] [9-10-08] Caesar is NOT synonymous with CIVIL GOVERNMENT! Caesar had coined the money: The tribute belonged to him. Had the Church coined the money, the tribute would have belonged to the Church! Tell us therefore, What thinkest thou? Is it lawful to give tribute (tax based on property value) unto Caesar, or not? But Jesus perceived their wickedness, and said, Why tempt ye me, ye hypocrites? Shew me the tribute money. And they brought unto him a penny. And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and superscription? They say unto him, Caesar's. Then saith he unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's; and unto God the things that are God's. Mat 22.17-21 If a Godly Kingdom put an image of the 10 Commandments with the Cross on one side and a Jesus is LORD on the other side, THEN it would belong to JESUS! 836] [9-1-08] A Republican form of Government is ALWAYS: “RULE by the RICH” 837] [9-1-08] No secular nation has EVER been held in check by a piece of paper (constitution), but only by nature and other nations! 838] [9-1-08] Deceived Dreamers: Blind to the truth, and Asleep to the voice! To say that the US Constitution has remarkable fidelity to the Word of God because it has the following factors SOME say are Scriptural, 1] Separation of powers 2] Limited powers (but they set the limits) 3] Representative Republicanism 4] Written Constitution Is just like declaring Madonna & Marilyn Manson have remarkable fidelity to the Word of God because they obey the following Scriptural Commands 1] Sing with a loud noise! 2] Play skillfully! 3] Sing a new song 4] Let the maidens Dance! 5] Clap your hands! 6] Use stringed instruments 7] Use drums & loud cymbols Of course the truth is: PURE COINCIDENCE!
