remnant

The remnant are not among the neocon pharisees who are throwing the stones, we cherish the stones, polish them up and use them in the construction of a new temple. If you have ears to hear, you had better start opening your eyes to the sins of Babylon. Get out of her my people is the cry of the One God who created heaven and earth. He loves us. It is not the cry of the false prophets who have prophesied peace in the name of a one world order that condemns and destroys.

The Lord is gathering His remnant right now. He is sending and has been sending His angels to call and gather His people for the final move that unifies the man-child and manifest sons of God before the harvest. The only way that we are to have our revival is to start with ourselves, come into that repentance that the prophets have been preaching from the beginning and cross over the river personally, we are to humble ourselves, pray and seek His face. Enough of us to do that and there will be the restoration of all things that are waiting for, with love, unity, humility and the ability to speak as One. That means there needs to be dialogue so that we can come to an understanding of where the church has strayed from her God ordained path. The church is in a big mess right now, we have been fighting for so long with each other that the church has taken on a reproach from the world. As soon as we start loving each other the way we should be, the world will finally believe us.

What have you been called to as part of the remnant? The Lord teaches us things that cause us to understand where the divisions are but the church is still learning and He will have to teach us all together before we ever come to that point where "we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ." We cannot glory in that we have been called to this for we have nothing that has not been given us by the Lord Jesus Christ but we do have to recognize that we have a calling. What about you? I freely admit that it is a calling that brings us to a greater understanding of that unity. Since we are all in this process of restoration and unity or we would not be here, I'm sure you understand that I am not speaking of myself only.

And it shall come to pass in that day, that the remnant of Israel, and such as are escaped of the house of Jacob, shall no more again depend upon him that smote them; but shall depend on the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, in truth. The remnant shall return, even the remnant of Jacob, unto the mighty God. For though thy people Israel be as the sand of the sea, yet a remnant of them shall return: the destruction decreed shall overflow with righteousness. And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand for an ensign of the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek: and his rest shall be glorious. And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall set his hand again the second time to recover the remnant of His people.

We see here that the Lord is calling us in this day for the second time. There was certainly a first and no one can deny that the Jewish dispersion resulted in a gathering to the present state of Israel in our own generation.

And He shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth.. They shall fly upon the shoulders of the Philistines toward the west; they shall spoil them of the east together.. And I will gather the remnant of My flock out of all countries wither I have driven them, and will bring them again to their folds; and they shall be fruitful and increase. And I will set up shepherds over them which shall feed them: and they shall fear no more, nor be dismayed, neither shall they be lacking, saith the Lord.

Hear the word of the Lord, O ye nations, and declare it in the isles afar off, and say, He that scattered Israel will gather him, and keep him, as a shepherd does his flock. For the Lord hath redeemed Jacob, and ransomed him from the hand of him that was stronger than he. Therefore they shall come and sing in the height of Zion. For thus saith the Lord God; How much more when I send my four so sore judgments upon Jerusalem, the word, and the famine, and the noisome beast, and the pestilence, to cut off from it man and beast? Yet, behold, therein shall be left a remnant that shall be brought forth, both sons and daughters: behold they shall come forth unto you, and ye shall see their way and their doings: and ye shall be comforted concerning the evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem, even concerning all that I have brought upon it. And they shall comfort you, when ye see their ways and their doings: and ye shall know that I have not done it without cause. After man days thou shall be visited: in the latter years thou shall come into the land that is brought back from the sword, and is gathered out of many people.

Although the remnant of Israel has been reinstated in the home land of the nation of Israel, these are primarily Jews. We must extend the remnant to the church because the Body of Christ is included in the nation of Israel through the spirit of Jesus. In these last days, there will be a remnant of the body of Christ that will return to Him in revival and purity toward the restoration of the temple made without hands. This is the Bride of Christ, the Elijah company, the manchild of revelation, the 144,000 and the manifest sons all coming together to form the army of God.

The restoration of the temple of God is to be undertaken by a remnant, not the whole universal church. Basically Christianity is held captive by Babylonian confusion and the Old Testament examples are excellent plumb lines for us to follow to harmonize the prophecies in Revelations. We are to be a remnant in that task, made up of those that have come out of Babylon. Surely you have heard much talk today about a remnant being formed that will bring about the restitution of all things. That remnant is being perfected now but unity has not arrived and will not until we start getting closer to the end where that veil of delusion is taken away from the church. The Anti-christ needs to be exposed, the mask will be taken off of Babylon, the make-up of Jezebel will be removed to expose her. These are spiritual types that are just beginning to be shown.

Those that choose to remain in Babylon will still be part of the confusion and division. The Lord told us in Revelation to "get out of here MY people." We cannot say that those remaining are not Christians for the Lord said my people. I believe that this remnant seed will be a unified Bride of Christ, so this is what I must teach. This remnant is made up of a sanctified body that may still in fact be within the denominations. I believe that we are not to put away the churches but rather the confusion that exists in the churches. The letters to the seven churches of Asia mention that we are to strengthen what remains, not destroy them. The stars that are falling from heaven are church bodies. We need to place them back in the right order.

We are not to be in the judgment and condemnation as our enemies that fight against us are but rather in peace and joy in the Holy Ghost. Only then do we take our rightful place in the body, only then will Babylon fall and the Bride be prepared to meet the Bridegroom, only then will we have the power to take dominion and enter into the Kingdom prepared for those that love the Lord and are called to His mercies. Now it's time to start praising the Lord, for these mysteries have been exposed and the wisdom of the ages have been revealed to us; the foundation of apostles and prophets of the new temple have finally been laid with Jesus as the chief cornerstone. Our eyes shall behold the former house as nothing as we manifest the glory and resurrection power that awaits the world as a witness to the majesty of a church without spot or wrinkle.

So in the end, it really does not matter if you are Catholic or Protestant or whatever for we are to put those things behind us and restore the first love. Unless we still want to fight over it and protest more, it is over. We may know a little more about the strengths and weaknesses of both but you and I know that there will still be the Catholic way and there will still be the Protestant way. We as the remnant that have come out of these things are not to be divided into parties and the traditions of men but to follow Jesus as the Way. As long as men try to bring parties together, there will still be sectarian parties, we have to be One without these parties and transcend the division. Learn the way of love, humility and acceptance and you will be among the living stones in the restitution of all things. This is what needs to be learned and taught, not sectarian strife and one-upmanship over those you disagree with.

Consider your ways, we have to get holy together if you are a part of that remnant that has come out of Babylon to restore the temple made without hands and please - leave that sectarian baggage behind. Love is what matters, let those powers of darkness go ahead and judge and condemn the failures of the past. We are hid in that secret place of the holy of holies. You are worthy, now all we have to do is act like it, claim the victory and work the works of Christ together, then when Jesus appears, we shall also appear with Him in all His glory. We all need to claim our rightful inheritance. The river is flowing already, we need to step into it and let it immerse us. We have an excellent foundation laid, let us build upon it according to what God would have us do and put behind us the pride, confusion and jealousy that has identified Christians in the past.

I pray that we can have the mind of Christ on this and that we can come to agreement to His way of thinking. At least for those called to be the remnant.
[Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel]
