Are YOU willing to go all the way with God & Jesus?
How about going all the way with YOUR Romantic Love?
Celine Dion & Frank Sinatra
In the course of human events, the One True God of Adam, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, the nation of Israel, King David and Jesus whom is declared by the light of the Holy Scriptures to be the only begotten Son of God born a male human child of the “seed of the woman” whom was Mary, established “spiritual” fellowship in the Ekklesia of Grace – literally, the Church of His Body, Jesus; duly appointed by God the Messiah of Mankind, Lord of the Cosmos and Head of the Church which was confirmed unto mankind on the day of Pentecost in the year of his death, resurrection and ascension to the right hand of power-Almighty God, whose members of the Church of His Body are united by the spiritual birthright given to us by God through Jesus – the “Armor of Light” and spiritual fellowship by the gift of spiritual birth of holy spirit made available for all mankind since the day of Pentecost;
When in the course of fellowship in the Church of His Body it becomes necessary for members to dissolve their bonds of commitment to a fellowship in the Church of His Body (which bonds of fellowship they have committed to in the past) and to therefore separate themselves; a decent respect for God whom has called us unto fellowship in the Ekklesia of Grace since the day of Pentecost through His only begotten son, Jesus, and the obligations to the bonds of fellowship to Jesus as the Messiah of God, Lord of the Cosmos and Head of the Church of His Body, to the fellow members of the fellowship and to all members of the Church of His Body, requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation;
Commitments to the bonds of fellowship are based upon sacred covenants established by God and ratified by the blood of Jesus through the sacrifice of his life upon a cross for all mankind and upon the trust that the instituted fellowship in the Church of His Body serves Jesus in the Ministry of Reconciliation to reconcile people to God and in building-up the Church of His Body by the light of our spiritual birthright given to us since the day of Pentecost, endeavoring to keep the unity of our fellowship as the Church of His Body established by God through Jesus with the gift of the “Armor of Light” and our spiritual fellowship given us by the gift of our spiritual birth of holy spirit. When these trusts are breeched and covenants are changed; one’s commitments must be evaluated.
God did not lightly establish spiritual fellowship, having sacrificed His only begotten son to justly and legally establish peace between Himself and man for the disobedience of Adam in the course of his spiritual fellowship with God. Commitments to a fellowship instituted in the Church of His Body are not made lightly, nor should the dissolving of such commitments be done lightly. Without a declaration of just cause for changing commitments, obligations to the bonds of fellowship shall be remiss and fellow members shall say that those desiring a change are emotional, acting before thinking, hence volatile and deceived.
We hold these truths to be self-evident by the light of the Holy Scriptures: Almighty God, the One True God and Father of Adam, made, formed and created mankind for fellowship with Him by giving man physical life and spiritual life by the gift of holy spirit, freedom from oppression and the pursuit of happiness by living a godly life in the bonds of fellowship with Him; that Adam compromised the integrity of his fellowship with God and lost his gift of holy spirit; that Adam’s disobedience put all mankind in estrangement with God and under the oppression of Satan; that in due time the Messiah of God was born of the “seed of a woman”, a male child begotten of God whom was named Jesus; that Jesus was faithful to the truth and obedient to God his Father and sacrificed his life to make peace with God for all mankind and deliver mankind from the oppression of Satan; that God established spiritual fellowship for all peoples of the earth by the gift of spiritual birth of holy spirit on the day of Pentecost and in the course of events will judge all men impartially by His righteousness;
We hold that it is also self-evident that no fellowship of the Church of His Body or government of the earth instituted by men has the right to usurp our unalienable rights to life, freedom and the pursuit of happiness endowed by God; that the purpose of fellowships and governments is to secure these rights and that those who serve to promote our rights derive their just powers from the consent of those served; We hold that those who serve the Church of His Body do so because they have shown their submission to Jesus by following Jesus as his servant by the spiritual fellowship made available by spiritual birth of holy spirit giving us light by the nine manifestations and nine fruit of the gift of holy spirit to serve the members of the Church of His Body and have been found faithful to the light of our “Spiritual Birthright” – the “Armor of Light” – given to all whom believe by grace since the day of Pentecost, and endeavor to keep the unity of the Church of His Body whereby we individually and collectively as members of the Church of His Body are the light of the world to the glory of the One True God, the God and Father of Adam and Jesus and all whom believe the light of the Holy Scriptures;
Whenever any fellowship of the Church of His Body or government of the earth becomes oppressive of our spiritual birthright and therefore destructive of our spiritual growth and unity as members of the Church of His Body and our freedom and dignity as members of humanity; obligations to the bonds of fellowship compel the members to reproof and correct that fellowship or government (reproof and correction is the way of life – Proverbs 6:23); having the unalienable right vested by Jesus as his ambassadors and ordained servants to alter or abolish that fellowship or government and institute a new fellowship or government; laying its foundations on such principles and organizing its powers in such form as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and the purposes of God in calling us unto fellowship with Him and His only begotten son, Jesus, whom we serve individually and collectively as his Ambassadors in the Ministry of Reconciliation to reconcile people to God through Jesus and as his ordained servants in building-up the Church of His Body, united as the Ekklesia of Grace by the gift of the “Armor of Light” and the gift of our spiritual birth of holy spirit available for all mankind since the day of Pentecost;
Each person is made a member of the Church of His Body by Grace from the ONE True God of Israel through your faith in the birth, life, death & resurrection of Jesus born the Messiah of The ONE True God of Israel. When YOU believe God raised Jesus from the dead and YOU confess Jesus is Lord YOU are given by grace everlasting life & spiritual fellowship in this life by spiritual birth of holy spirit since the day of Pentecost: Romans 10:9 & 10;
Prudence, indeed, dictates that fellowships in theChurch of His Body long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience has shown that the members of the fellowship are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable and forgiveable, than to right themselves by abolishing the evils that they have long endured. But, when a long train or habit pattern of abuses and usurpations occur in the fellowship; which patterns invariably pursue the same object and evidence a design to reduce the members of the fellowship to be under the tyranny and oppression of an absolute autocracy, which, of course, is done in the name of God instead of being under God’s divine authority, either that, or have spiritual anarchy; it is the right, it is the duty of the members of the fellowship and their fellow members of the Church of His Body to throw off such oppressive autocracy and to provide new guards for their future security to fulfill their commitment to the Bonds of Fellowship;
Such has been the patient sufferance of the undersigned members of the Church of His Body; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to seek reformation in the fellowships of the Church of His Body, Jesus, the Messiah of God, Lord of the Cosmos & Head of the Church duly appointed in the course of human events by the One True God of Israel his Father on the day of Pentecost;
The history of the Church of His Body since its inception on the day of Pentecost has been a long record of many goods, yet in our lifetime a strong pattern of repeated injurys and usurpations has occurred. The ruling hierarchy established by fellowships in the Church of His Body, according to their own doctrines, have turned away from the light of our Spiritual Birthright as recorded in the Holy Scriptures. Thus, they have compromised the integrity of the light given us in the Holy Scriptures, allowing Satan to make of none effect the love of the One True God of Israel from whom we received the light of the truth; and have compromised their godly responsibilities as ministers of the truth to whom we are to serve as revealed to us by the Apostle Paul: Jesus, the only begotten son of the One True God, whom obtained appointment on the day of Pentecost as the Messiah of Mankind, Lord of the Cosmos and Head of the Church by his obedience to the light of the truth in his commitment to the Bonds of Fellowship;
By remaining in darkness and under the oppression of Satan whom they serve when they promote his darkness and oppression, they have betrayed the trust of the members of their fellowships in the Church of His Body. The members of the Church of His Body owes no more allegiance to these fellowships but to admonish them and instruct them as members of the Church of His Body to return to the truth with all exigency.
Are we not fundamentally responsible for the integrity of our own commitment to the Bonds of Fellowship with God our Father, Jesus the Messiah & Lord and one another as members of the Church? Are we not to be on our guard concerning those who create darkness and oppression and cause division in the Church of His Body in opposition to the light of the doctrine (teaching) that has been given to us in the Holy Scriptures? One has to ask if those who declare they are “orthodox” and are in practical and doctrinal error can be trusted to lead us to the truth if they are unwilling to change their doctrine and practices contrary to the light of the truth?
Since the leaders of these fellowships expect us to follow them because they represent an “orthodox” establishment of fellowship, is not this a most subtle form of autocracy that blinds itself and those who follow with a rhetoric that instead of enabling us to fulfill our obligations to the Bonds of Fellowship we are enslaved with despotic autocracy that makes null and void the Lordship of Jesus the Messiah & Lord and our growth together as the Church of His Body in the light of the truth? Did not Jesus say, “The truth shall set you free”? Did not the Apostle Paul say, “Whereas you were once in darkness, now you are light in the Lord, walk as children of light”? Are not we to be children in malice but men in understanding spiritual matters?
In spite of a major reformation in the 16th century and current attempts of the World Council of Churches and organizations and individuals like Martin Luther King, Jr., Ph.D., who wrote the book – “Strength to Love” – and gave the greatest speech of his ministry – “I have a Dream” – on August 28, 1963, to expose the darkness and oppression of Satan and correct the errors of doctrines and abuses of individuals by prayers, conversations, doctrines, pleadings, reproofs and corrections: The current hierarchy of fellowships in the Church of His Body continue in their errors that put people under the darkness and oppression of Satan and cause division in the Church of His Body. To maintain themselves as leaders, they have become “Lords over God’s heritage”. They represent those who disagree with them as “heretics” when it is they who continue to misrepresent the truth and thereby cause division and confusion in the Church of His Body.
The members committed to these fellowships have been put in the position of compromising their spiritual birthright and their integrity of commitment to Jesus to build-up the Church of His Body.
To prove this, let the facts of the Faith since the day of Pentecost be submitted to the members of the Church of His Body according to the light given to us by the Apostle Paul whom received the “Armor of Light” – our Spiritual Birthright – from Jesus our Lord, meaning Lord of the Cosmos
Romans 1:1-6, Romans 13:12, Galatians 1:11-12 (II Corinthians 13:1- I Timothy 2:1-4 and I Timothy 5:19-20)
We, members of the Church of His Body, Jesus the Messiah & Lord, in submitting to members of the Church of His Body just cause for reformation in the fellowships of which they are members, assert that our position is that the Church of His Body is to be the light of the truth of the Faith to a world in darkness. Our obligations to the Bonds of Fellowship demand we speak the truth in love and this is our commitment in our service to Jesus to build-up the Church of His Body. It is the truth that will give us the understanding to resolve any conflict that we as a member of the Church may encounter in any fellowship established for us to come together to grow in our commitment to the Bonds of Fellowship. Only a commitment to the light of the truth with love, integrity and courage will enable us to live in the light of our spiritual birthright – the “Armor of Light” and enable us to walk in the spirit by the light of our spiritual birth of holy spirit since the day of Pentecost;
We assert any doctrine or teaching contrary to the light of the truth is darkness from Satan to lead us away from serving Jesus the Messiah & Lord in the Ministry of Reconciliation to reconcile people to the One True God, the God and Father of Adam, Abraham, Isaac, Israel, King David and Jesus, His only begotten son and keep us from growing together as the Church of His Body as we endeavor to serve Jesus as he has given us capacity to edify and build-up the Church of His Body established since the day of Pentecost.
We assert there is only one Church of “His” Body which was established in the course of human events on the day of Pentecost and any fellowship in the Church of His Body must not be allowed to rob members of our unalienable rights and darken the light of our spiritual birthright – the “Armor of Light” and our unity by our spiritual fellowship given us by our spiritual birth of the gift of holy spirit- for our spiritual fellowship with the One True God, Jesus His only begotten son and one another and our growth together as the Church of His Body since the day of Pentecost;
The light of the truth of the Faith enables us to fulfill our obligations to the Bonds of Fellowship to reproof and “Phileuo” – instruct those that oppose the truth of our spiritual birthright. The light of the truth is profitable for correct teaching, reproof of errors contrary to the truth and correction of that which is contrary to the truth. We are to take heed unto those who still oppose the truth after they have been instructed. Our only commitment is to love them as God and Jesus does. We are not to let their failure to act on corrective instruction to sway us from our commitment to the light of the truth in our commitment to the Bonds of Fellowship to be faithful in our service to Jesus the Messiah & Lord as his ambassador of his resurrection from the dead and as his ordained servant to the members of the Church of His Body established by the grace, mercy and love of the One True God on the day of Pentecost.
We, members of the Church of His Body, are to submit to Jesus and hold fast to the light of the truth of the “Armor of Light” – and the truth of our spiritual fellowship by our spiritual birth of the gift of holy spirit -our spiritual birthright since the day of Pentecost;, so that we can shine as lights in the world among people in darkness as we hold forth the light of the Faith. It is our obligations to the bonds of fellowship to respond with love to the needs of individuals to edify and encourage others to live in the light of the truth – Romans 12:2, I Corinthians 12:25, Ephesians 5:18, Philippians 2:15-16.
WE, members of the Church of His Body, committed to Reformation in the Church in the 21st Century, are therefore committed to “Exegeomai” – to expound the light revealed so that an understanding of the light revealed can dispel darkness.
God gave Adam the light of a Messiah to be born a male child from the “seed of the woman” to restore fellowship for mankind with God and bring deliverance from the oppression of Satan, the Adversary of God whom desired to usurp God as the supreme being of the universe and whom received rulership of the earth when Adam disobeyed God – Luke 4:6.
Jesus expounded the light of the Faith he was given in his ministry before the day of Pentecost. The Apostle Paul expounded the light of the Faith he was given in his ministry after the day of Pentecost. We, members of the Church of His Body, are to be inexorable to guard the light of the truth and reveal light given to us to expound the light of God’s love for all mankind through His only begotten son, Jesus, to each generation.
WE, in our commitment to the Bonds of Fellowship, are committed to the light of the Faith according to the revelation of the written word and the revelation we receive by our spiritual fellowship with God & Jesus. The Apostle Paul stated we are to be a co-worker with God as an ambassador of His only begotten son, Jesus our Lord confirmed to be both the Messiah of Mankind & Lord of the Cosmos when the promised gift of holy spirit was poured out and made available for all mankind on the day of Pentecost;
Our focus in this declaration of independence is the day of Pentecost.
The light of the written word reveals that Pentecost is a Day of Reformation to be celebrated by all members of the Church of His Body, Jesus, duly appointed by the One True God the Messiah of God, Lord of the Cosmos & Head of the Church which was confirmed unto mankind on the day of Pentecost.
In our endeavor to understand the significance of the day of Pentecost, we find it crucial to show the light of what God provided to mankind before the day of Pentecost. The Apostle Paul gives us the light that what was written before the day of Pentecost is for our learning.
We learn from the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John that Jesus, whose name means ” anointed help of God”, was born of God and as the only begotten son of God is the only one qualified to be the Messiah of God. The light of the word reveals Jesus fulfilled the “Old” Covenant given in the Old Testament in his ministry to Israel in order for God to fulfill His promise to Israel of a “New” Covenant. Jesus was faithful to the light given him and established peace with God for Israel by the sacrifice of his life, which ratified or initiated the “New” Covenant by his blood. The shed blood of Jesus provided the means for God to fulfill His obligation to Israel concerning the “New” Covenant. Also, the day of Pentecost reveals the shed blood of Jesus established peace with God for all mankind which made it possible for God to bring about reformation in our relationship with Him through Jesus by our spiritual birth of holy spirit on the day of Pentecost;
The “New” Covenant promised to Israel was made known in the Old Testament, Jeremiah 31: 31-33. The light of the word reveals God has committed Himself to fulfill specific promises and “Covenants”.
God had made a promise to Adam and Eve to bring forth a messiah born of the “seed of a woman”, i.e. a child to be born of a human woman as a human child, to restore the fellowship of mankind with Himself. Adam and Eve had fellowship with God by the gift of holy spirit upon condition of obedience. They lived in a Paradise known to us as the “Garden of Eden” and had the fellowship and protection of God. Adam compromised the integrity of his fellowship with God and they became people without “holy spirit”. They died spiritually and were expelled from this Paradise lest they eat of the tree of life and live forever in their state of being estranged from God.
Abraham is given a “Covenant” by God because of his faith in the light of the “One True God” and the promise of the messiah to come from the “seed of the woman” – Genesis 12: 1-7. Abraham believed the light of the promise of a messiah and did not compromise the light given him. He believed the son Sarah and he had was the Messiah of God and he was willing to sacrifice Isaac in obedience to the light of the Faith – Genesis 15: 4-6, 17: 19-21, 18: 12-14.
After Abraham witnessed the judgement of the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah by God, he was motivated by love to deliver people from the bondage of Satan and was willing to sacrifice his son Isaac to do so – Genesis 22:2. The record of this account gives us the light that God Himself will provide a “lamb” for the “atonement of sin” – Genesis 22:8. We have the light an angel of God intervened in the course of this human event – Genesis 22: 11-12. We have the light Abraham gave “homage” to Jehovah God – Genesis 22:14.
We have the light that because Abraham did not compromise the integrity of his commitment to the “One True God” that through the “seed” of Abraham shall all nations be blessed – Genesis 22:18.
We have the light that God considered Abraham His friend – II Chronicles 20:7. We have the light that God had Abram change his name to Abraham which means “Father of many nations” – Genesis 17: 1-27. Sarai his wife was renamed Sarah which means “Princess” – the mother of kings and the mother of the nation of Israel – Isaiah 51:2.
The people of the land promised to Abraham were of Judean descent and as a nation named Israel. The promises of the fulfillment of the “Old” and “New” Covenants are specifically to Israel.
Daniel, a prince and prophet of Israel, was faithful to the light of the Faith and because he did not compromise the integrity of his commitment to the One True God of Israel – even in the face of death – he was given the light concerning the rebuilding of the temple of Israel, the light of the coming of the Messiah of God, the light of the Great Tribulation to come in the course of human events and the emanicipation of Israel by the Messiah whose work as the Messiah of God will help God to bring about the fulfillment of the “New” Covenant to Israel – Daniel 9:21.
The blessings of the Abrahamic Covenant and the fulfillment of the “New” Covenant will also be a blessing to all peoples of the earth according to God – Genesis 12:3.
The people that came to be the nation of Israel were adopted by God as His children. The “Passover” observed by those who adhere to the Jewish tradition is in commemoration of the deliverance of the Hebrews from Egypt by God.
The meal is unleavened bread and a lamb. The blood of the lamb is a symbol of their redemption from the angel of death. The angel of death “passed over” every home that had the blood of the lamb displayed on the door posts of the house. It is of great significance that Jesus was crucified during the day of the “Passover” – and Jesus instructed we are to remember his sacrifice in light of the “New” Covenant. Also, we should note that it is just days after “Passover” to present the firstfruits of the parley harvest. The Apostle Paul calls Jesus our “Passover” and the “firstfruits from the dead”.
Shortly after their deliverance from Egypt, God gave the people what is known as the Mosaic Law. This law includes the Ten Commandments given to Moses by God. The law was the establishment of the “Old” Covenant with Israel by Yahweh according to Exodus 21-23. The Ten Commandments are known as the Decalogue and are pre-fixed as the ethical code of the Israelites to the Sinaitic legislation and the “Covenant” – Dueteronomy 9:9.
The Mosaic law prescribes spiritual and moral rules of conduct. The first commandment correctly reads, “I am Yahweh your God who brought you out of Egypt where you lived as slaves. You shall have no other gods rival to me.” Exodus 20:1. This firmly established Yahweh as the One True God of the universe and there are clauses that forbid the worship of nature and the making of images to worship. The neighbors of Israel worshipped a variety of “gods” and graven images. In contrast, the Hebrew people only worshippedOne True God whose name is Yahweh
The celebration of the Jewish “Passover” is in memory of their deliverance by Yahweh from the hand of Pharaoh, who ruled Egypt as a “god”. It is of great significance that Jesus stated there is only “One True God” and that God is “Spirit” – John 17:3 and John 4:24.
A shepherd boy named David became King of Israel and established Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. David paid with gold for land on which he intended to build a temple to God and house the “Ark of the Covenant”. Since King David paid for the land – the land belongs to Israel!
Solomon his son succeeded him as King and built the temple. Israel failed to heed the law given to them and the northern enemies of Israel, Babylonia and Assyria destroyed the first temple in 586 B.C.
A second temple was rebuilt according to the prophecy of Daniel, a prince and prophet of Israel. A commandment given by King Artaxeres in Nehemiah 2:1 brought to pass the prophecy of Daniel of the rebuilding of Jerusalem. The light of the rebuilding of the temple and the rebuilding of Jerusalem came to pass in the exact time-frame of the prophecy of Daniel. The temple was completed in 405 B.C. The rebuilding of Jerusalem was completed 396 B.C.
His prophecy gives us the light of the coming of the “Messiah of God” – Daniel 9:25. We know the second temple was destroyed by the Romans. The prophecy of Daniel gives us the light of a tribulation temple and a millenium temple from which the “Messiah of God” will rule the nations in the course of events to come when the “New” Covenant will be fulfilled totally with Israel and all mankind.
We have the light that reveals the fulfillment of the prophecy of Daniel in the book of Revelation. We have the light that our final destination is with God and His “Messiah” in a new Paradise in a new third heaven and earth to come where we will live forever!
In spite of the fact that the people of Israel were disobedient to the law, God kept His promise to Adam to bring forth a messiah born of the “seed of a woman” to redeem mankind from Satan and in due time Jesus was born of Mary. The parents of Mary and Joseph fully expected the time of the messiah to be born was near according to the prophecy of Daniel and it is with this expectation that they had them betrothed, both being of the lineage of King David.
The four gospels reveal the birth of the Messiah of God, his ministry, his crucifixion and his resurrection from the dead. Before his death, Jesus, who knew the prophecy of Daniel and quoted Daniel in Matthew 24, expected to fulfill the “New” Covenant within the life time of his disciples – Matthew 16:28. Jesus expected the time of the “Great Tribulation” to be seven years according to Daniel. Thus, he expected to return soon to the earth after his ascension and his apostles also expected his imminent return based on what he told them.
It is with great expectation of the return of Jesus after they see him ascend into heaven that the Apostles of Jesus follow his instructions to wait in Jerusalem to receive the promise of the Father – the promosed “spirit” – the “power from on high” to enable them to be witnesses of the resurrection of Jesus.
Pentecost, also known as the festival of weeks, is a time of celebration of the firstfruits of the wheat harvest and the firstfruits of all the ground. It is very important to note that Pentecost is also the commemoration of the giving of the law at Sinai. The law that was the establishment of the “Old” Covenant with Israel. In contrast, since the day of Pentecost when the promised “spirit” was received – mankind since that Pentecost is under grace.
The spiritual life of Israel during the life of Jesus centered around the temple which was in Jerusalem. The city of Jerusalem also has symbolic significance related to Pentecost. The Prophet Isaiah notes God will bring the glory of all nations back to Jerusalem and messengers would go out from Jerusalem to the lands that had not heard of God’s name – Isaiah 66:19. Jesus instructed his disciples to wait for the promise of the “spirit” in Jerusalem, and from Jerusalem, they would be witnesses of his resurrection throughout Judea and Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.
All Judeans of Israel over 13 years of age were required to attend both “Passover” and “Pentecost”. Gathered together in Jerusalem for this feast of Pentecost were thousands of devout Jews from around the world. These people were eye witnesses of the “spirit” given to mankind on this particular Pentecost fifty days after the death, resurrection and ascension of Jesus.
What happened on this particular Pentecost?
We are told Jesus was a man approved of God among the people by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him; and that Jesus was crucifed and slain – Acts 2:22-23 We are told God raised up Jesus from the dead Acts 2:32 We are told God gave Jesus the promised “spirit” to shed forth on all who believe- Acts 2:33 We are told God confirmed unto mankind with the pouring out of the promised “spirit” that Jesus has been duly appointed both the Messiah of Mankind and Lord of the Cosmos – Acts 2:36 We are told three thousand devout Jewish people believed God resurrected Jesus from the dead and duly appointed Jesus both the Messiah & Lord – Acts 2:41
Instruction in the light of the Holy Scriptures gives us the light of God’s goodness, mercy and love by His reconciling us unto Himself through His only begotten son, Jesus. God has given us reconciliation with Him through Jesus and fellowship with them and one another by giving us the gift of spiritual birth of the promised “holy spirit” since the day of Pentecost through our belief of the truth of the “Gospel of Jesus” or “Good News” of the Faith given unto us in the Holy Scriptures: Jesus was born a male human child of “the seed of the woman” whom was Mary as the only begotten Son of the One True God – John 20:31; Jesus was faithful to the light revealed to him and died for all mankind – John 3:16; the One True God his Father raised him from the dead and rewarded him by appointing him both the Messiah of Mankind & Lord of the Cosmos, which was confirmed unto mankind on the day of Pentecost in the year of the death, resurrection and ascension of Jesus by the fulfillment of the promise of God to send the promised “spirit” – Acts 1: 4-8.
We, members of the Church of His Body in the 21st Century since the birth, death, resurrection and ascension of Jesus, the Messiah & Lord, are committed to the light that the Church Epistles written to the Church have always been in the “Canon of Scripture”. Accordingly, we affirm the Church Epistles are our Spiritual Birthright and only authority for the light of the Faith for all members of the Church of His Body since the day of Pentecost.
We hereby affirm the light of the Faith committed to us by the Apostle Paul in the Church Epistles is our authority as ambassadors and servants of Jesus since the day of Pentecost. For the record, Peter, an Apostle of Jesus, admonished believers to follow what Paul had written – II Peter 14-18.
The Apostle Paul has given us the following light on the reformation in our relationship with God on the day of Pentecost that:
Since the day of Pentecost there is only One True Messiah:
The Apostle Paul was given the light that the only begotten son of God is Jesus and that as the Messiah of God his blood by his sacrifice ratified the New Covenant for Israel and made peace with God for all mankind on the day of Pentecost;
and the sacrifice of Jesus made it possible for God to rescue us from the oppression and darkness of Satan in this life by the gift of spiritual birth of holy spirit, and Jesus will complete his role as the Messiah of God in the course of human events when he will administer justice to Satan the Adversary of God and destroy the last enemy, death;
and in doing so will fulfill the unconditional “Abrahamic Covenant” and the “New Covenant” wherein Israel and all peoples of the earth shall be blessed;
We submit the light that the “Great Tribulation” was referred to in the Old Testament and therefore known about before the day of Pentecost. We have the light that the Great Tribulation refers to God dealing with Israel and the ungodly. The Apostle Paul specifically refers to this time as a time of the “Wrath of God” – the Day of the Lord” in 1 & II Thessalonians;
We have the light the Prophecy of Daniel will be fulfilled when the false messiah known as the “Anti-Christ” will convince Israel to make a covenant with him and in the midst of the covenant he will betray their trust. This course of human events to come will require Jesus to intervene to save Israel. Jesus refers to the Great Tribulation in Matthew 24:21 and the “Anti-Christ” – Matthew 24:15. We submit the light Jesus will deliver Israel from the “Anti-Christ” and his army;
We also submit the light that this time of the Great Tribulation will be a time of great darkness upon the earth – for those days shall be as the days of Noah.
Jesus told the people of Israel that it was the will of God that everyone who believes on him as the Messiah of God will be given everlasting life. Jesus promised he would raise from the dead whoever believes and accepts he is the Messiah of God – John 6:35-40. Jesus told the people of Israel that he was going to establish the Kingdom of God within their lifetime but not before the Great Tribulation.
During the ministry of Jesus, Israel was blessed to have the favor of God but was still under the law. Jesus explained to the people that those who believed he was the Messiah of God had to stay faithful to the Faith and not submit to the false Messiah of Satan called the “Anti-Christ” and serve him instead of Jesus.
We submit the light the people of the Great Tribulation are under the law in the course of human events to come and that those people who believe and are faithful to Jesus and die during this time of the oppression and darkness of the Messiah of Satan the “Anti-Christ” will be raised from the dead by Jesus at his second coming. This will be the first resurrection from the dead in the course of human events that is known to us as the resurrection of the “just” – the faithful to Jesus – who are resurrected from the dead unto everlasting life – Matthew 24;37.
We submit that although the Sadducees of the Sanhedrin did not believe in resurrection from the dead and were primarily the ones we see in the book of Acts who later sought to kill the Apostles of Jesus, that many of the Pharisees of the Sanhedrin who did believe in resurrection from the dead had faith Jesus was the Messiah. Also, James, the brother of Jesus, who became a leader in Jerusalem, totally believed Jesus was the Messiah of God and that the only reason he remained faithful to the law along with others in Jerusalem is that Jesus had said the law would not pass until all was fulfilled and instructed that only those who believed he was the Messiah of God and were faithful to the end by not submitting to the false Messiah of Satan called the Anti-Christ would be given everlasting life. Jesus thought the false messiah would appear shortly after his death, resurrection and ascension – Mark 13: 14-30. James had very good reason to expect Jesus to return soon – Jesus was his brother and had told him so.
We as ambassadors and servants of Jesus whom we serve submit the light of the Faith given to us in the Holy Scriptures that God accepted the sacrifice of the life of Jesus as peace between Him and all mankind and it is available to be reconciled to God thru Jesus and receive the “Armor of Light” – and spiritual fellowship with them and one another by our spiritual birth of the gift of holy spirit – Our Spiritual Birthright since the day of Pentecost;
We affirm the light Adam was the first son of God and was made, formed and created – Genesis 2:7, Isaiah 43:7; and that it was holy spirit that God created within Adam in order for him to have fellowship with God – Genesis 1:26,27, I Thessalonians 5:23. This created spirit left Adam when he compromised the integrity of his fellowship with God through disobedience of the light given him by God and he died a spiritual death in the very day he transgressed against God – Genesis 1:27. Adam lost his spiritual fellowship with God and all human beings are born under the consequences of Adam’s transgression. All human beings since Adam are born under the oppression and darkness of Satan without the benefit of fellowship with God.
The Apostle Paul gives us the light that in order to have fellowship with God there must be reconciliation with Him – Romans 6:23, Romans 5:10-17, Romans 8:9-17. The Apostle Paul calls Jesus the “last Adam” – I Corinthians 15:45. God gave Adam the light that His messiah would be born of the “seed of the woman”. The “seed of the woman” when she gives birth is a human child. We have the light from the four gospels concerning the birth, ministry, death and resurrection of the messiah that the One True God created seed in the virgin Mary and Mary conceived with child and gave birth to the only begotten son of God – a male child whom was named Jesus.
We submit the light Jesus was born to destroy the works of Satan, the Adversary of God and all mankind – John 8:42, John 10:10, 36-38. Satan works to corrupt all human beings – Galatians 6:8, Ephesians 4:22-24 and blind all to the glorious light of the Gospel of Jesus or good news of reconciliation with God through Jesus, appointed and confirmed the Messiah of God & Lord of the Cosmos since the day of Pentecost – II Corinthians 4:4.
We as ambassadors and ordained servants of Jesus submit the light Jesus is the first and the last redeemer – the only redeemer of mankind – and that he is the only “mediator between God and mankind” – Revelation 1:8, Colossians 1:14, I Timothy 2:5.
We submit the light Jesus fulfilled many prophecies concerning the Messiah of God.
We can thank the Magi who came to see him who was born a king and the exactness of astronomy for being able to pinpoint the exact day and place Jesus was born. Wordlight research reveals Jesus was born on Tishri 1, September 11, 3 B.C. We have the light of Levitus 23 showing us the Feast of Tabernacles. Tishri in Leviticus 23: 23-25 is a memorial commemorated with the blowing of trumpets, an holy convocation. This blowing of the trumpets and horns on Tishri 1 was also part of the coronation ceremony for a new king! We have light from II Kings 11:12-14 that all the people of the land rejoiced when the king was crowned, and there was blowing of trumpets! The reign of King David began on Tishri 1, marking the occasion as the beginning of a new civil year. Josephus the Judean (Jewish) historian who wrote the “War of the Jews” – gives us the light that Tishri 1 during the time Jesus was born marked the beginning of a new year for business and agriculture.
Tishri 1 is regarded as the Jewish New Year’s Day! On this day at the Jewish Temple in Jerusalem trumpets and horns were blown the entire day to celebrate the memorial of Yahweh the Lord God as King over all as the One True God of Israel. Yahweh the Lord God is the ONE Eternal Spirit and He alone is God.
The star the Magi observed and followed in its course in the heavens pinpointed for them the time and place of the birth of a “King”. The Magi or wisemen were convinced by the movement of the stars that a king was being born in “Judea”. Research reveals that on August 12, 3 B.C, at 5 pm, Jupiter and Venus came into conjunction. Jupiter is regarded as the “King” planet and Venus expresses the “Bright and Morning Star” – a title of the Messiah of God. We submit the light Jesus is the only King-Priest and the only Messiah of the ONE True God of Israel in the history of the world – and that he forgave people their sins against God. We have the light the conjunction of Jupiter and Venus took place in Leo, designated for Judah as the sign of the lion. Wordlight research reveals the light of Genesis 49: The prophecy that the Messiah of God was to come from Judah as the “King” of Israel.
Wordlight research reveals the light the Magi who came seeking a new born “King” were descendants of a group whom were taught the meaning of the stars according to the blessings given to the children of Israel as their “Birthright”. We have the light this biblical astronomy was taught the Magi by the prophet Daniel when he was Ain capitivity in Babylonia. We have the light of Daniel 5:11 that Daniel was “Master of the Magi,astrologers, Chaldeans and Soothsayers”.
The Magi faithful to the light given by Daniel had during the time of the birth of Jesus the knowlege of the stars and it was this knowledge that prompted them to travel to find the “King of the Judeans” – Matthew 2:1-2. The Magi saw according to astronomical tables a massing of planets in conjunction with Leo on August 27, 2 B.C. In conjunction were Jupiter and Mars with Mercury and Venus and this conjunction signified to them the birth of a Messiah King. Regulus is known as the brightest star of the constellation Leo. this strongly convinced the Magi a “King” was being born in the time-frame of the prophecy of Daniel. Regulus is called the “King” star!
The light of the Scriptures shows us the events between the witness of the Magi to King Herod concerning the birth of a “King” – which was at least a year from the time they first observed the evidence of the imminent birth of a “KIng” and left their homeland to confirm this birth and the movement of the planets they observed as they traveled points to the time of the birth of the Messiah of God being in September, 3. B.C. , with the conjunction of Jupiter the “King” planet and Regulus the “King” star. The day of the birth of Jesus is pinpointed as September 11, 3 B.C.
The light given us about Jesus in Revelation 12 shows us the sun and moon activity occurred between 6:18pm and 7:39pm Israeli time in which Virgo, the woman, was clothed with the sun and the moon rested under her feet. On this day, Jupiter and Regulus came into conjunction just before dawn. Chronological charts show September 11, 3 B.C. was on a Wednesday. On that evening at 6pm began the first day of Tishri. The Hebrew calendar proves that the new year begins on the evening that the new moon appears. This gives us conclusive evidence Jesus was born on September 11, 3 B.C. between 6:18pm and 7:39pm on the first day of Tishri: the first day of the Feast of Taberacles – The Day of Atonement!
The “star” of the Messiah of God – the planet Jupiter – confirmed to the Magi that Bethlehem was indeed the city of the birth of the Messiah after they left Jerusalem.. The Magi saw the planet before them. The planet was progressing toward the meridian or horizon shortly before sunrise. It is a consensus among scholars that the Magi saw the planet Jupiter over Bethlehem between December 4, 2 B.C., and early January, 1 B.C. This coincides with the death of Herod and gives us the light how the Magi or “wisemen” saw a young child in a “house” according to Matthew 2:9.
We have the light of the prophecy of Micah 5:2 that Bethlehem was to be the birth place of the “Messiah of God”. Wordlight research and astronomy reveals the Magi whom were faithful in looking for the signs of the one to be born a “king” were rewarded for their diligence and their journey gives us the proof that Jesus was indeed born in the city of Bethlehem.
We submit that Jesus is the Messiah of God in that he fulfilled the prophecy of Daniel concerning the coming of the messiah to the exact day. We submit that at the time Jesus was crucified that the Sanhedrin leaders were strongly convinced Jesus was the Messiah of God when he fulfilled the prophecy of Daniel on the day he rode into Jerusalem upon a donkey and was hailed as a king by the people. They wanted Jesus to prove he was really the Messiah of God by forcing him to prove it by saving himself from death by crucifixion at the hands of the Romans and delivering the nation of Israel from the oppression of the Romans.
We submit the light Jesus gave his life to ratify the New Covenant for Israel. God accepted the sacrifice of the life of Jesus as peace between Him and all mankind and made reconciliation and spiritual fellowship by spiritual birth of holy spirit available for all mankind on the day of Pentecost;We submit the light that in the course of human events the One True God is going to send His only begotten son Jesus back to earth. This is known as the “second coming”. Before he returns there will be many signs in the heavens and the earth – Matthew 24:29-31. Angels will announce his coming and gather together the nation of Israel. When he comes “every eye shall see” Jesus coming back to earth – Matthew 24:30, Revelation 1:7. When Jesus returns as “King of Kings” and “Lord of Lords”, he will fulfill the “Covenants of God” and complete his role as the Messiah of Mankind. Amen.
Since the day of Pentecost there is only One Lord:
God has duly appointed Jesus both the Messiah & Lord and this was officially confirmed unto us on the day of Pentecost. The Apostle Paul was given the light Jesus has been given all dominion of the cosmos and affairs of the Church by God his Father and the Father of all whom believe – Ephesians 1:22, 2:5.
We submit the light that in the course of human events, Jesus will fulfill the covenant God made with David when he will rule the earth from Jerusalem as “King of Kings” and “Lord of Lords” as the legal heir to the throne of King David.
Wordlight research reveals Jesus was born the “only begotten Son of God” – John 3:16. The genealogy in Matthew and Luke clearly establishes Jesus to be the promised seed of Abraham and heir to the throne of David, born with pure blood to be the “Messiah of God” – Acts 2:25-30 and Galatians 3:16. Mary, the mother of Jesus, was a direct descendant of David, the King of Israel whom God promised the “Messiah” would reign from his throne in Jerusalem. Jesus was born of the line of David and is entitled to the throne of David by his faithfulness to be the “Messiah of God” by the sacrifice of his life for all mankind. God resurrected His only begotten son from the dead and appointed him the Messiah of Mankind, Lord of the Cosmos and Head of the Church and confirmed this by sending the “promised” holy spirit on the day of Pentecost.
The Lord Jesus sacrificed his life for us in obedience to God his Father and the Father of all whom believe. The Apostle Paul gives us the light that God his Father raised Jesus from the dead and set him at his own right hand and God has empowered Jesus by appointing him the Messiah of Mankind, Lord of the Cosmos & Head of the Church of His Body – Ephesians 1:20-23. In our service to Jesus as his ambassadors and ordained servants we are to submit our every thought in obedience to him to honor God our Father.
Since the day of Pentecost there is only One Faith:
The Apostle Paul was given the light we are reconciled with God in the bond of the peace established through the sacrifice of Jesus of his life by crucifixion upon a cross by the Romans; and that anyone who has faith Jesus is the Messiah of God by the light given us through the light of the Holy Scriptures: that he was born the only begotten son of God and that by his death his blood is the “atonement” of the transgression of Adam for all mankind – Romans 3:23, 2 Corinthians 5:21, and believes in their heart God his Father raised him from the dead and confess Jesus is Lord – according to the light of his appointment by God on the day of Pentecost – are given unconditional spiritual fellowship by the gift of spiritual birth of holy spirit and the gift of unconditional everlasting life by God – Romans 10: 9 & 10.
The witness of holy spirit within us is light this reconciliation is a reality bearing testimony that God truly raised Jesus from the dead – Ephesians 4:5, Ephesians 2:8, 2:14, 2:18, 1 John 5:10;
The Apostle Paul gives us the light that the One True God has set for all mankind a cornerstone: God has set Jesus as the cornerstone of the Faith. There is only One Faith whereby anyone is reconciled unto the One True God and given spiritual fellowship by spiritual birth of the gift of holy spirit and receives the spiritual birthright of the “Armor of Light” in this Dispensation of the Ekklesia of Grace – and through this spiritual fellowship made a member of The Church of His Body, Jesus, the Messiah of Mankind, Lord of the Cosmos & Head of the Church since the day of Pentecost.
There is no such thing as Inter-Faith. The Jewish, Catholic and Protestant Hierarchy is a foundation of division built by Satan upon a foundation of sand. Before Jesus was born, the Jewish people looked for the birth of the Messiah of God. Since the day of Pentecost we are united by our faith and confession Jesus is the Messiah of God.
We submit that obedience to the light of the Faith since the day of Pentecost means we are to endeavor to keep the unity of our spiritual fellowship established by God through Jesus by our gift of spiritual birth of holy spirit as members of the Church of His Body, the light of the world!
The nation of Israel since the crucifixion of Jesus has not submitted to the light Jesus is the One True Messiah of God. Even though they are under the oppression and darkness of Satan, we have the light that God is faithful to fulfill His promises and “covenants” and that they are unconditional and without compromise. God fathered Jesus when Mary submitted to God by the light given her by the angel Gabriel. Jesus was faithful to the light given him and in the course of human events God will send Jesus back to establish the justice of God upon the earth as he rules the nations upon the throne of King David from Jersualem.
We submit the light that in the course of human events there is coming a day of “reckoning” for Satan. God will be seen just and righteous by all the angels who stayed loyal to God at the time in heaven Satan and one third of the angels of God rebelled with Satan against God to usurp His throne when in the course of events to come Satan receives his punishment because he has not submitted to Jesus as the duly appointed Messiah & Lord by God since the day of Pentecost.
Since the day of Pentecost there is only One Spirit:
The Apostle Paul was given the light each person who believes God has raised His only begotten son Jesus from the dead and confesses Jesus is Lord are by grace given everlasting life and the gift of spiritual birth of holy spirit the very moment of their confession of faith.
The Apostle Paul gives us the light we are “sealed” by the gift of spiritual birth of holy spirit Ephesians 1:13. The Apostle Paul says we are “sealed” unto the day of redemption – Ephesians 4:30. The Apostle Paul reveals we are “sealed” by the authority of the One True God to whom we belong – II Timothy 2:19.
The Apostle Paul reveals we are adopted by God as His children through Jesus unto Himself to the Praise of the Glory of His Grace – Ephesians 1:5-7
We have the light God adopted the people of Israel because of the faith of Abraham. We have the light the Apostle Paul was a Roman citizen by birth and that according to Roman law an adopted person was legally entitled to full inheritance and could not be dis-inherited.
Our adoption by God is binding. It is unconditional by the grace of God and the love God has for us. We submit that God has adopted each member of the Church of His Body, the Lord Jesus, and that God cannot dis-inherit us because God is not a man that can lie to us.
The Apostle Paul calls this gift of spiritual birth of holy spirit the “earnest” of our inheritance – a deposit that guarantees our inheritance in the future when our body will put on immortality – II Corinthians 1:22, 5:5, Ephesians 1:14.
The Apostle Paul says this gift of holy spirit is within us – Colossians 1:27. We are to walk in the spirit with God, Jesus and one another by the light that our spirit has nine manifestations and nine fruit – I Corinthians 12: 7 – 11, Galatians 5:22.
Our first priority as a child of God is to worship God in the spirit – John 4:24, Philippians 3:3.We worship God in the spirit by speaking in tongues – I Corinthians 14:2.
The people who received the gift of holy spirit on the day of Pentecost gave proof they had received spiritual birth of holy spirit by speaking in tongues. Cornelius, a Gentile centurion captain with the command of a hundred men – he and his family gave proof they were reconciled to God by speaking in tongues – Acts 10:10.
Today, there are many members of the Church of His Body who are being robbed of their spiritual birthright to worship God by praying in the spirit which is to speak in tongues. Either they are not taught they are born again of the gift of spiritual birth of holy spirit or they are taught the manifestations of the spirit are gifts only given to certain people.
The Apostle Paul has given us the commandment from Jesus the Lord – “forbid not to speak in tongues” I Corinthians 14: 37-39.
The Apostle Paul admonishes us to walk in the spirit and put on the bond of charity – I Corinthians 13. We are to walk in the spirit with love to edify one another – Romans 5:5, Ephesians 2: 8-10.
We are given the light speaking in tongues is for our personal edification 1 Corinthians 14:4, Jude 20. Speaking in tongues is the proof you are a child of God by the gift of spiritual birth of holy spirit – Romans 8: 16-17, and will strengthen you in grace, faith and understanding in your commitment to the Bonds of Fellowship – Ephesians 3:16, II Corinthians 4:16
It is in our best interests to stop being ignorant under the darkness and oppression of Satan concerning spiritual matters I Corinthians 12:1. I encourage you to commit fully to the Bonds of Fellowship and renew your mind to walk in the spirit of which you are born which has nine manifestations and nine fruit.
Since the day of Pentecost there is only One Body:
The Apostle Paul was given the light each person since Pentecost is literally made a member of the Church of His Body by the gift of spiritual birth of holy spirit once they believe God has raised His only begotten son from the dead and confess Jesus is Lord.
The Apostle Paul was given the light we are in Jesus with God as a new creation in Jesus by the gift of spiritual birth of holy spirit.
The people of Israel were called out by God to be apart from others as His people who worshipped only Him as the One True God. Israel is called a bride. The bride of the Messiah was known in the Old Covenant. The covenants-old and new – were given to Israel and will be fulfilled in the future when the Lord Jesus fulfills his role as the Messiah and Lord of Lords and King of Kings.
The reformation that began on the day of Pentecost is that a new church began by grace which was kept “secret” since the world began – Romans 16:25, This was kept secret by the One True God – Ephesians 3:9. The Apostle Paul says he received this by revelation from the Lord Jesus that people in this dispensation who believe are literally made a member of the Church of His Body by the gift of spiritual birth of holy spirit – Colossians 1:27, so that there is no longer Jew or Gentile but One Body – the Body of Jesus the Messiah of Mankind, Lord of the Cosmos & Head of the Church of His Body. Ephesians 3:6
Each member of the Church of His Body is sanctified by the gift of spiritual birth of holy spirit, justified by the blood of Jesus, made righteous in Jesus who is the righteousness of God. God has made Jesus the standard of righteousness – the cornerstone of the Faith.
Each member of the Church of His Body through Jesus has peace with God – Romans 5:1.
We are in Jesus with God by the gift of spiritual birth of holy spirit – sanctified, justified, forgiven and made righteous through the blood of Jesus by his sacrifice of his life for our redemption – Ephesians 1:7. By his death he freed us from the bondage of the law and the oppression of Satan. This is why we are to put on the Armor of Light and stand fast in the liberty wherein Jesus has made us free.
The Apostle Paul gives us the light that God kept the gift of our spiritual birth of holy spirit into the Church of His Body, the Lord Jesus, a secret from the prophets of God in the Old Testament and from Jesus His only begotten son so Satan could not interfere – I Corinthians 2: 7 & 8.
God has appointed Jesus to have all authority over the affairs of The Church of His Body – Ephesians 1:22. God has made us fellow citizens of His kingdom and members of His household as His children through Jesus – Ephesians 2:18 & 19. And someday we will see by the true light of God rather than by the light of the sun as foretold to us in Revelation 22:5.
Meanwhile we are to endeavor to keep our unity we have as the Church of His Body. We are to serve the Lord Jesus with our hearts knit together in love in our commitment to the Bonds of Fellowship to keep the unity of the spirit. We are to endeavor to encourage to buildup, to edify, to exhort, to comfort one another as members of the Church of His Body – Ephesians 4:23-24.
We are to speak the truth of the Faith in love and fight for the light of the Faith,
God ordained men in the Old Testament who were faithful to Him as the One True God. II Peter 13:21. Jesus ordains Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors and Teachers to keep our unity as the Church of His Body.
We are members of the One Church of His Body composed of many fellowships. We are to come together as the Church of His Body and exhort one another to hold fast to the profession of our faith and to provoke one another unto love and good works of the gift of spiritual birth of holy spirit which has nine manifestations and nine fruit. Hebrews 10: 23-25. We also come together as the Lord commanded to take Communion in rememberance of the sacrifice of His life that made fellowship available.
We are to endeavor to have the light of the word prevail in our life – The Apostle Paul said our faith proceeds from the light of the truth – II Thessalonians 2:13.
It is the light of the written word that makes known the One True God – the God of Adam, Abraham, Isaac, Israel, King David and His only begotten son, Jesus.
The Lord Jesus did not waver from the truth – even when he faced death. God & Jesus loves us and we are to love one another in our commitment to the Bonds of Fellowship.
Concerning those ordained in the Church of His Body. Those who show grace to serve the Church of His Body with a gift ministry and have manifested their commitment to the Bonds of Fellowship by walking in the spirit by the light of the nine manifestations and 9 fruit of the spirit are ordained as were Paul and Timothy – I Timothy 3:6, Acts 6:3, Acts 13:3, Galatians 2:9, II Timothy 1:6.
The Apostle Paul gives us the light it was never the intention of God for ministers of the Gospel of Jesus to never marry or take vows of poverty. Paul instructed that those who serve the Church of His Body are to be married, i.e. in a heterosexual, monogamous marriage.
Today, there are fellowships that require a vow of chasity. We submit it was never the intent of God nor Jesus for men or women to deny their humanity in order to be servants of Jesus to the Church of His Body. It is time to stop this bondage of our fellow members of the Church of His Body. We have the right to dispel darkness and if necessary declare our independence from any fellowship in the Church of His Body that darkens the light of the Faith. Jesus asked: “Can the blind lead the blind?” Luke 6:39
We are the Church of His Body and we are to be the light of the world which is in darkness under the oppression of Satan, the god of this world – the Prince of Darkness – who got Adam to compromise the integrity of his fellowship with the One True God his Creator and Father.
We submit the light fellowships in the Church of His Body helped other fellowships – Acts 2:32-35, 4:35, I Corinthians 16:1-3, II Corinthians 9:6-8, Ephesians 4:28.
We submit we are to cast off the works of darkness and put on the armor of light and walk with God and Jesus and one another as light by the gift of spiritual birth of holy spirit. Ephesians 5:8.
Our commitment to the Bonds of Fellowship must be stedfast, constant – unwavering. If we waver – we shall be blown about by every wind of doctrine and deceived by false teachers with false teaching without ever coming to a knowledge of the truth – I Timothy 2:
The Apostle Paul committed to Timothy the light of our spiritual birthright since the day of Pentecost – the Armor of Light. Why did Paul choose to commit the light of the Armor of Light to Timothy? Timothy was faithful to the light of the Faith in his commitment to the Bonds of Fellowship.
Since the day of Pentecost there is only One Baptism:
The Apostle Paul was given the light each person once they believe God has raised His only begotten son from the dead and confess Jesus is Lord is literally baptized by Jesus with the gift of spiritual birth of holy spirit.
This baptism makes one a member of the Church of His Body, Jesus the Lord-the Ekklesia of Grace and individually we are a tabernacle of God.
During the time of the Old Covenant under the law, the High Priest of Israel had access to the presence of God only once a year. The High Priest offered the blood of a lamb as a sin offering that allowed him to enter into the Holy of Holies and see the glorious light of the “Shekinah”. This light symbolized the presence of God.
Since the day of Pentecost God has given us grace to share in the benefits of the “New Covenant” ratified by the sin offering of the blood of Jesus, whose blood was pure because he was the only begotten son of God. Jesus made peace for all mankind by his death upon the cross.
The sacrifice of his life made it possible for God to justly forgive us by the blood of Jesus.
The love of God is manifested in that through Jesus the One True God has not only given us everlasting life in the future, He has also given us unconditional spiritual fellowship by the baptism by Jesus of the gift of spiritual birth of holy spirit since the day of Pentecost.
This baptism gives us the true light of God within us all the time that is unquenchable. We have the presence of God within us all the time by grace.
God has established fellowship with Him and Jesus that is unquenchable and unconditional. Satan cannot steal us from God. Satan can only get us to compromise the integrity of our commitment to the Bonds of Fellowship. The Apostle Paul exhorts us to put on the Armor of Light and be on our guard against Satan.
Jesus told his apostles just before his ascension into heaven to be with God that John the Baptist indeed baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with holy spirit – the promise of the Father – not many days from now, Acts 1: 1-9. We know that on the day of Pentecost recorded in Acts 2 that many people did become baptized of the gift of holy spirit.
On the day of Pentecost the spirit was not just upon the people but the spirit was inside them and they manifested this by speaking in tongues. Since the day of Pentecost each person is baptized by Jesus with the gift of holy spirit giving us spiritual birth of holy spirit. The Apostle Paul reveals God has sent forth the gift of spiritual birth of holy spirit through Jesus into our hearts – Romans 5:5. Galatians 4:6.
We are baptized by Jesus into the Church of His Body which is neither Jew or Gentile but one new body – Galatians 3:22-29. The Apostle Paul gives us the light that the baptism of the spirit gives us access by one spirit unto God our Father – Ephesians 2:18.
The Apostle Paul says Jesus gave him the revelation that “with one spirit are we all baptized into the Church of His Body, Jesus the Lord.
Whether you are a multi-millionaire actor or a janitor, if you do not submit to this truth you have compromised the integrity of your commitment to the Bonds of Fellowship. You are under the oppression and darkness of Satan and being robbed by him of your spiritual birthright to walk in the spirit you have received by baptism by Jesus the Lord – Romans 8:16.
Since the day of Pentecost there is only One Communion
The people of Judean descent known today as Jews are still looking for their Messiah to come through birth from a woman – the seed of the woman –Genesis 3:15. Their teachings are from the revelation given in the Old Testament and they are still looking for the Abrahamic and Davidic Covenants to be fulfilled.
Since the Jews do not accept the Lord Jesus as the Messiah of God, their Passover celebration is to God for their deliverance by Him through Moses from the bondage of their slavery in Egypt.
The feast of unleaven bread involves the use of a lamb and the blood of the lamb. Blood as used in the Old Testament was confined to make “Atonement” with God – Leviticus 17:11, Hebrews 9:22, and to establish a Covenant – Exodus 24:6-8, Hebrews 9:16-22.
Wordlight Fellowship submits the light that Jesus had his last supper with his apostles in which he took bread, blessed the bread and broke it and told them to take and eat the bread; he stated this is my body ; and he took the cup and gave thanks and said to drink for this is my blood of the New Covenant which is shed for the remission of sins. Jesus understood no Covenant could be without shedding of blood.
Also, at this last supper Jesus gave a new commandment: Love one another as I have loved you and instructed them about the coming of the spirit of truth that will proceed from God and shall testify of me – John 15: 12,16,17,26.
We submit to the light that we celebrate Jesus as our Passover because he loved us enough to sacrifice his life to redeem us from the oppression of Satan and everlasting death.
The apostles ate the bread and drank the wine because they believed Jesus was the Messiah. The bread and the wine represents his body and blood and we eat the bread and drink the wine in rememberance of his sacrifice for us because we believe his sacrifice was sufficient for our redemption. The bread and the wine represents his body and blood but is not literally changed into his body and blood because is means a Metaphor. For example, a portrait represents a person but is not actually the person. The portrait is never changed into the person.
We submit the light we celebrate Jesus as our Passover because his death made peace with God for all mankind. We eat the bread and drink the wine in memory of him because he made Atonement for all mankind by his sacrifice – and God put His seal on the New Covenant Jesus ratified by his blood by the fulfillment of His promise to send the spirit of truth which we know came on the day of Pentecost.
We submit the light Jesus is our Passover due to the day and time of day he died. We have the light that four Gospels show that the crucifixion of Jesus was on a Wednesday, the 14th of Nissan, which was the preparation day of the Jewish Passover lamb; therefore, the last supper of Jesus the evening before was not the passover. Jesus died on the cross before the first day of the feast of unleaven bread which commenced on the 14th of Nissan at sunset.
We have the light Jesus asked God his Father to receive his spirit he had received at his baptism by John the Baptist and then he died around the ninth hour or 3pm in the afternoon and had to be buried before 6pm on account of the preparation of the feast which commenced at sunset.
Wordlight Fellowship is committed to the light when we take communion in a fellowship it is a celebration of Jesus as our Passover.
Glory to God our source of all blessings through Jesus to the praise of the glory of His love for everyone.
Since the day of Pentecost there is only one Hope:
The Apostle Paul was given the light that we the Ekklesia of Grace – the Church of His Body, the Lord Jesus, will be gathered together by the Lord Jesus before the Great Tribulation . He explains we are not the children of wrath and we are the children of grace not law, light not darkness – I Thessalonians 5:9-11.
The Apostle Paul gives us the light we shall be rewarded for our service to the Lord Jesus.
We submit our gathering together will happen before the Great Tribulation because those who are actually in the Great Tribulation must endure to the end without submitting to the False Messiah. First of all, we are given unconditional everlasting life by the love of God for us through our faith and confession God has raised Jesus from the dead and Jesus is Lord since the day of Pentecost.
Also, nowhere in the Church Epistles does the Apostle Paul say we are to endure to the end – rather he says we are to endure hardness as a good soldier of the Lord Jesus, to not waver – to count it all joy due to trials and tribulations of our faith in the Lord Jesus.
The Apostle Paul told Timothy to “Fight the good fight of the Faith until the appearing of the Lord Jesus I Timothy 6:14.
He says we are to comfort one another with the light that the Lord Jesus shall change our body into a body like his – Philippians 3:20.
The Apostle Paul gives us the light that we are to look for the appearing of the Lord Jesus – not for signs.
The appearing of the Lord Jesus could happen at any moment and we shall be with the Lord Jesus from that point on forever. I Thessalonians 4: 13-16.
We submit the light that absolutely no one is given immortality until the day the Lord Jesus gathers us together. The Apostle Paul explains we are the first-fruits from the dead before anyone else from Adam to our gathering together by the Lord Jesus.
We submit the light that according to the dispensations that the One True God has predestinated in His wisdom – Ephesians 1: 1-10, that the gathering together of us who are members of the Church of His Body, the Lord Jesus, is the end of this dispensation of the Ekklesia of Grace, the Church of His Body since the day of Pentecost in the year of his death, resurrection and ascension to the right hand of the One True God.
Bless all those that look for the appearing of our Lord Jesus at any given moment.
There has always been only One True God:
The Apostle Paul said “to the Only Wise God be glory forever through Jesus.
Jesus was appointed by God his Father as both the Messiah of God and Lord of the Cosmos which was confirmed unto mankind on the day of Pentecost in the year of his death, resurrection and ascension to the right hand of God.
The Lord Jesus said “God is Spirit”.
Jesus understood God his Father is also our Father: Do you know the Lord’s prayer?
Our Heavenly Father is the only one true God. John 17:3. We worship God as our Heavenly Father. The Apostle Paul said “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus the Messiah.
God alone is the only Creator of the Cosmos.
God alone planned out the dispensations from before the foundation of the earth.
God alone is the God and Father of Adam, Abraham, Isaac, Israel and His only begotten son Jesus.
God alone created seed in Mary, the mother of Jesus.
God alone raised Jesus from the dead.
We are reconciled to God when we believe God raised Jesus from the dead and confess Jesus is Lord.
The Apostle Paul gives us the light Jesus is the only mediator between God and man – I Timothy 2:15.
God alone appointed Jesus the Lord of the Cosmos and empowered Jesus as Lord to reconcile all things to God.
God had all His fullness in Jesus by giving him the mantle of holy spirit at his baptism by John –Colossians 1:19. God has His fullness in us by the giving by His grace the gift of spiritual birth of holy spirit –Ephesians 3:19.
Wordlight Fellowship submits the light that the true mystery of the Faith was given to the Apostle Paul. He states “Now I want you to realize that the head of every man is Jesus, and the head of the wife (woman) is the husband (man), and the head of Jesus the Messiah & Lord is God His Father and our Father, and we as members of the Church of His Body belong to Jesus; and Jesus belongs to God-I Corinthians 3:23 and 11:3
We are to follow Jesus as he leads us by the gift of spiritual birth of holy spirit and endeavor to cast off the works of darkness and put on the armor of light to honor God our Father for His love, grace and mercy in giving us spiritual fellowship since the day of Pentecost!
Glory forever and ever to the One True God.
Yours in the Bonds of Fellowship,
James,Ordained Minister since 1975 of Jesus whom was duly appointed by the One True God the Messiah of Mankind, Lord of the Cosmos & Head of the Church of “His” Cosmopolitan Body since the day of Pentecost in the year of his death, resurrection and ascension to the right hand of power-his Father & the Father of all whom believe – Almighty God to whom be glory forever and forever for establishing “spiritual” fellowship – Amen!
Concerning President Obama’s trip to China. This article written August, 2009. This is in regard to Tibet in light of his upcoming visit to China. The Beijing Olympics gave us an exciting glimpse into the richness of Chinese cultural history. I would like to focus on their olympic slogan: “One Dream, One World”.
In our time, we still believe in the United States of America as an independent nation. A republic committed to freedom in the bond of peace. We do not envision being part of a one world government, one world finance nor one world religion. The point I want to make is that the forces of darkness want a one world system. Revelation 13 shows the forces of darkness will establish power over all nations by both political and religious authority – and all whom do not worship the Anti-Christ (the False Messiah) as King of the Earth will not be able to buy or sell.
There is a book named the “Late, Great Planet Earth” by Hal Lindsey. Hal mistakenly states Gog and Magong are China and Russia. The geography in Revelation 16 shows the Kings of the East are just east of the River Euphrates. These kings receive power with the anti-Christ for one hour at that time in the course of human events. The nations of the Middle East – Gog and the nations of Southeastern Europe – Magog – are Islamic and Gentile nations. God reveals He will judge “Ancient Babylon” – man’s world system – by fire. There are previous recorded events of judgment. Sodom and Gemorrah. Ugarit in southern Mespotamia worshipped Baal in 1200 B.C. and was destroyed by an earthquake. The Tower of Babel in 3000 B.C. on the alluvial plains of Babylon received judgment. Samaria in 166 B.C. was judged at the battle of Beth at Horon. Assyria received judgment. The Philistines in Genesis 10 – decendants of Egypt – 2000 – 1500 B.C. received judgment.
China culture goes back 5000 years when farming is recorded in the Wei and Yellow River Valleys. Today, Hans Chinese pre-dominate in culture and politics. However, there are 55 minorities in China. Religion-wise, Confucius and Daoism predate Buddhism by 300 years 550 B.C – 205 B.C. Jesuits did not arrive until the Ming Dynasty in 1370 A.D. Tibet was an autonomus high plateau region. The Jokhang is Tibet’s holiest Buddhist Temple. The Dotala is the home of the Dalai Lamas and the governing site of all Tibet’s religious rulers since the 7th century. Tibet had more than 3,700 monasteries and temples before the Chinese came during the Cultural Revolution of the 1960s and early 1970s.
Globalization has affected many cultures across the earth. By authority of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights – adopted and proclaimed by the United Nations on December 10, 1948, Please stand firm and state to China they are to allow Tibet to have their own culture and allow the Dalai Lama to return to Tibet in the bonds of peace and freedom. They are to stop genocide by forced sterlization of the people of Tibet before husband and wife have a child. They are to allow all legitimate fellowships (Concerning Christian Fellowships: those that do not have vows of chasity or poverty – the Apostle Paul received from Jesus the command that pastors and elders are to be married – i.e.: one man married to one woman – no polygamy) and no fellowship of any religion is to be violent and murder people) to meet in homes or wherever without fear of imprisonment in the bonds of peace and freedom.
All our relations, trade agreements and aid with all countries must reflect our Commitment to Freedom from Oppression in the bond of peace.
Respectfully Yours in the Bonds of Fellowship,
James, ordained minister of Jesus, the Messiah of the One True God, Lord of the Cosmos & Head of the Church since the day of Pentecost in the course of events in the year of his death, resurrection and ascension into heaven to the right hand of Power – Almighty God – to whom be glory forever and ever for establishing “spiritual” fellowship.
We hold these truths to be self-evident by the light of the Holy Scriptures: Almighty God is Yahweh the Lord God the One Eternal Spirit and He is the Father of Adam. Yahweh the Lord God made, formed and created mankind for fellowship with Him by giving man physical life and spiritual life by the gift of holy spirit, freedom from oppression in the bond of peace and the pursuit of happiness by living a godly life in the bonds of fellowship with Him; that Adam compromised the integrity of his fellowship with God and lost his gift of holy spirit; that Adam’s disobedience put all mankind in estrangement with God and under the oppression of Satan; that in due time the Messiah of God was born of the “seed of a woman”, a male child begotten by Yahweh the Lord God whom was named Jesus; that Jesus was faithful to the truth and obedient to God his Father and sacrificed his life to make peace with God for all mankind and deliver mankind from the oppression of Satan; that God established spiritual fellowship for all peoples of the earth by the gift of spiritual birth of holy spirit on the day of Pentecost and in the course of events will judge all men impartially by His righteousness; We hold that it is also self-evident that no fellowship of the Church of His Body or government of the earth instituted by men has the right to usurp our unalienable rights to life, freedom and the pursuit of happiness endowed by God; that the purpose of fellowships and governments is to secure these rights and that those who serve to promote our rights derive their just powers from the consent of those served; God defines oppression for us. Please read Exodus 3:9,10 in the Holy Scriptures – the Bible. God commissioned Moses to go to Pharaoh to deliver the Hebrew slaves from oppression and return them to the land He had promised Abraham. God tells us in this account that His heart is to deliver us from oppression. He saw the Hebrews were oppressed by Egypt – which here God defines oppression as being under the pressure of evil. The Hebrews were under the influence of tyrannical and oppressive rulers suffering great deprivation. Today, there are three evils in the world I want to point out: China and Tibet, Religious Extremism and Water Deprivation. I. China & Tibet: China has been a lawless neighbor of Tibet – breaking the treaty of 823A.D. between China and Tibet. Since the Dalai Lama has had to flee Tibet for his life, the Chinese have tortured and killed over one million Tibetan people. Is this liberation of the Tibetan people as China claims? Where is freedom of religion????? Where is shown the respect for the dignity of individual human beings????? II. Religious Extremism: God tells us in His Ten Commandments to not commit murder. It is to the shame and judgment of Christianity that so-called “orthodox” Christians tortured and killed people whom refused to confess the lie of a polytheistic, trinitarian False God in 325A.D., a doctrine known as the trinity. Recently, we have the disasters of Jonestown and Waco, Texas. Two Christians have murdered abortion doctors. An Islam adherent is beheaded for converting to any other religion??? Is this freedom??? Did not Jesus say: “Love one another as I have loved you?” Women are abused and killed by their husbands. The Apostle Paul states – “Husbands – love your wives” What is honor killing??? It is intolerable children are killed in the name of religion-and there is no reprisal??!!! Is not this the influence of evil?? Jesus said to pray for God to deliver us from evil – he actually said “deliver us from the evil one” – meaning Satan – the Prince of Darkness. We have islamists committing murder on suicide bombing missions and violent Jihad. Satan has deluded murderers who kill in the name of God. God says only the “just” shall enter Paradise!!! III. Water Deprivation: The world bank and multi-national companies have oppressed the poor with their water for profit agenda. When one child out of 10 dies before the age of five for lack of clean, fresh drinking water – is not this the influence of evil????? It is amazing that Americans think they have to drink bottled water as opposed to drinking tap water. Americans are also subject to pollutants that enter their skin when they bathe. Water is essential for life. Therefore, United Nations – Please adopt Article 31 to be included in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Article 31: Everyone has the right to clean and accessible water, Adequate for the health and well-being of the individual and family; and no one shall be deprived of such access or quality of water due to individual economic circumstances. Furthermore, All mankind has a directive from Yahweh the Lord God whom is the ONE Eternal Spirit. God states “You shall not oppress one another but you shall fear (respect) Me your God” Leviticus 25:17 God states in verse 19 that when we live in peace there is His blessing of prosperity. James, Ordained Minister of Jesus since 1975 – written Monday, 28 Sep, 2009.
What do YOU Believe? What are YOU Looking For? An amazing song by Florence & the Machine & A Few Other Clips from YOU Tube:
You have heard the “Gospel” of positive thinking and the “Gospel” of prosperity. The Apostle Paul states there is only one “Gospel” whereby we receive the gift of spiritual birth of holy spirit and he exhorts us to “walk in the spirit“.
Jesus died upon a cross at the hands of the Romans. The sacrifice of his life made it possible for reconciliation between God and man in the bond of peace. Reformation in mankind’s relationship with God by spiritual birth of holy spirit came about when the appointment of Jesus by God as the Messiah of God, Lord of the Cosmos & Head of the Church was confirmed by God his Father unto mankind when the promised spirit was sent on the day of Pentecost in the course of human events in the year of the death, resurrection and ascension into heaven of Jesus to the right hand of power – Almighty God.
God is ONE-He is indivisible-He alone is God the Eternal Spirit whom created the heavens and earth and humans to inhabit the earth. Psalms 24
God had spiritual fellowship with Adam and Eve. The Adversary of God usurped their relationship with God. This put mankind in estrangement with God. God created seed in Mary and she gave birth to Jesus. It was the hope of God that Jesus would fulfill his mission as the lamb of God. He did. He was faithful unto death to ratify the New Covenant with his pure blood.
God was able to reconcile unto Himself all whom believe the gospel of Jesus, i.e.; Jesus was born of God, Jesus died and God raised him from the dead and has appointed him both Messiah & Lord.
God re-established spiritual fellowship with mankind by sending the promised spirit and spiritual birth of holy spirit was made a reality on the day of Pentecost.
All of us whom believe the light of The ONE Faith and confess Jesus is Lord are members in particular of The Body of Christ.
It does not matter where in the world you live or with whom you fellowship as a group of members of The Church of His Body Jesus our Lord whom we follow and serve as his ambassadors and ministers.
What matters is that we walk in the unity of the spirit with God our Father, Jesus our Lord and one another.
The Apostle Paul has given us the command to walk in the spirit. We are to do so with integrity, love and courage and be faithful to the light of The ONE Faith written to us in the New Testament just like Jesus was faithful to the light of The ONE Faith from Genesis to Malachi.
Since the day of Pentecost, the Apostle Paul explains there is only ONE Gospel whereby we have fellowship with God our Father, His only begotten son Jesus our Lord and one another by the gift of spiritual birth of holy spirit. The only thing we are required to do to partake of this spiritual fellowship is Confess Jesus is Lord and believe God has raised His only begotten son Jesus from the dead. Once we do this we are given spiritual fellowship by the gift of spiritual birth of holy spirit.
This spiritual fellowship has been made available to all mankind since the day of Pentecost. We are literally made a member of the Body of Jesus the Christ by our spiritual birth of holy spirit. Once we are a member of the Ekklesia of Grace – The Church of His Body – Jesus – the Head of the Church, we are to be a co-worker with God as an ambassador of His only begotten son Jesus by “walking in the spirit” of which we are spiritually born. We do this in our commitment to the Bonds of Fellowship for two reasons – 1) to reconcile people to God and 2) to build-up the Church of His Body – Jesus – by endeavoring to “Cast off the works of darkness and put on the Armor of Light” – our spiritual birthright since the day of Pentecost.
Jesus leads us individually and collectively by the “spirit” of which we are born. It is our responsibility to “walk in the spirit” by the light that our spirit of which we are born has 9 manifestations and 9 fruit of the spirit – in order to be a light of the Faith to a world in darkness.
Those who expouse what you believe you receive and what you fear you receive are the blind leading the blind. We are to “walk in the spirit” to receive prophecy – revelation from God and Jesus. Jesus said for us to believe God. If you believe God, God will use His power to move a mountain because God has told you to move the mountain. You speak that which is revealed to you via the gift of spiritual birth of holy spirit – then God will surely move the mountain. Mark 11:22-24.
God says His word – His word – is what He will fulfill. Satan wants us to be in darkness under his oppression and believe in our believing and fear our fear rather than for us to “walk in the spirit”. The Apostle Paul explains that as long as we endeavor to walk in the spirit as a faithful ambassador or minister of Jesus – that God is able to do exceedingly far above all that we ask or even think!!!
We are given an excellent example of God’s love for people through the light revealed to us about Moses being asked by God to deliver the Hebrew slaves from their bondage in Egypt. God also delivered Daniel from the lions and delivered three men from certain death by being burned alive.
When we believe God then God can use His power to make happen that which He has revealed to us via the “spirit”. There is no genuine spiritual power outside of believing God and Jesus as we endeavor to “walk in the spirit” by the light of the 9 manifestations of the spirit and the 9 fruit of the spirit. Do we love God and Jesus for establishing “spiritual” fellowship? Are we willing to walk in the spirit with integrity, love and courage?
Yahweh Almighty God The ONE Eternal Spirit has established SPIRITUAL Fellowship for ALL Mankind
Yahweh the Lord God who is the ONE Eternal Spirit decided billions of years before the foundation of the world to establish “spiritual” fellowship.
Our universe is determined to be about 15 billion years old. Our universe is expanding since the “Big Bang” has set in motion the building blocks that came from a single cluster of galaxies. Our earth came from the “Big Bang” and formed about 4.6 billion years ago. Yahweh the Lord God in His wisdom has planned out the dispensations of the ages.
Yahweh the Lord God is the God & Father of Adam, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Israel and His only begotten son Jesus, born of Judean descent.
Yahweh the Lord God who is the ONE Eternal Spirit is the One True God – John 17:3/John 20:31.
We are given the light of THE FAITH it is the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob–the God of all our ancestors–who has brought glory to his servant Jesus by doing this-Acts 3:13
Jesus said God is “Spirit”. Lucifer, known also as Satan, and his followers are angels. Angels of God are also called sons of God. Angels are spiritual beings but they are not “spirit”. Jesus was never an angel or a “spirit”. Jesus was born of the seed of the woman – a human being. The woman was Mary, a woman of Judean descent of the linage of King David of Israel. One day Jesus will rule from the throne of King David.
Jesus our Lord as a man – a human being – born of the flesh – was uniquely qualified to become the Messiah of God – his blood was pure since his father was Yahweh the Lord God who is the One True God. The blood of the child comes from the father of the child. The first chapter of the Gospel of John shows Jesus is the fulfillment of Genesis 3:15.
God provided from before the foundation of the world a way to redeem mankind if Adam, the first son of God, chose to disobey Him through the influence of His arch-enemy, Lucifer, known as Satan the devil and the serpent of old. When Adam did compromise the integrity of his fellowship with God and put man at enstrangment with God, the One True God gave the prophecy – His Word – that a redeemer would be born of the seed of the woman. John in his gospel clearly states near the end of his gospel, John 20:31: that his gospel was written for all to believe Jesus is the Christ – The Messiah whom is the Son of God – and that believing, you might have everlasting life through him.
The only way we can now have fellowship with the ONE True God of Israel is through Jesus whom has been appointed both the Messiah & Lord since the day of Pentecost.
We are given “spiritual” fellowship by the gift of spiritual birth of holy spirit in the bond of peace with Yahweh the Lord God and Jesus when we believe Yahweh raised His only begotten son Jesus from the dead and we Confess Jesus is Lord!
This “spiritual” fellowship by spiritual birth of holy spirit was not available before the day of Pentecost.
Jesus is the only begotten Son of Yahweh the Lord God. Yahweh is his father. Yahweh fathered Jesus by creating seed in Mary whom became pregnant from the seed of God and gave birth to Jesus. Jesus was born a human being of the seed of the woman of Judean descent. Jesus was genetically Yahweh’s only begotten son. Yahweh also raised Jesus from the dead.
Romans 1: 3,4; Romans 10:9,10; Colossians 1:18; Acts 13:33 and Revelation 1:7 state Jesus is forgotten by God from the dead! Jesus the Christ is the Anointed Help of God. Psalms 2:7, A Prophet of God – Matthew 3:17, A Priest of God – Matthew 17:5, and also a King – Hebrews 1:5,6. Jesus is the only Prophet, Priest, King and Messiah of Yahweh the Lord God. Yahweh is the ONE True God of Israel. Jesus never existed physically until Mary became pregnant with the seed from Yahweh whom is Holy and is “Spirit” and the Most High.Jesus could say he was before Abraham because of the prophecy of Genesis 3:15.
We, including Jesus, were in the mind and heart of God from before the foundation of the world! Yahweh planned out the dispensations and ages. Yahweh planned out our redemption through His son the Lord Jesus.
The Apostle Paul states Jesus is the first-fruits from the dead. He also states the only mediator between man and God is – the “man” Christ Jesus- man means a human being. . (Here I want to point out that since Jesus is the only begotten of God from the dead with an immortal body – the Roman Catholic Fellowship in the Church of “His” Body the Lord Jesus, is in error and teaching a lie from Satan when they state Mary is risen from the dead).
Jesus was a faithful witness to the truth and gave his life to ratify the “New Covenant” with his blood and make peace with Yahweh the ONE True God for Israel. Yahweh rewarded Jesus by duly appointing him the Messiah of God, Lord of the Cosmos & Head of the Church.
This was confirmed unto us on the day of Pentecost in the year of his death, resurrection and ascension into heaven to the right hand of power – Almighty God – the God and Father of all whom “Believe God raised His only begotten son Jesus from the dead”and “Confess Jesus is Lord”.
Yahweh the ONE True God of Israel accepted the blood of Jesus as a peace offering for all mankind on the day of Pentecost.
Jesus our Lord is alive forever more in an immortal “human” body. The Apostle Paul was given the light that each person whom believes since the day of Pentecost is literally made a member of the Church – the Ekklesia of Grace – The Body of the Lord Jesus – by the gift of spiritual birth of holy spirit and made a heir of Yahweh with Abraham and a co-heir with Jesus as an inheritance in the future as foretold to us in the book of Revelation.
Our ‘spiritual” birth of the gift of holy spirit is a new creation. The spirit of which we are born did not exist in us before we believed. The spirit we receive inside us by baptism by Jesus never existed before. T
The gift of holy spirit came from Yahweh the Lord God whom is “Spirit” on the day of Pentecost. This is when the “promised” spirit was poured out upon all whom believe Yahweh the Lord God raised Jesus from the dead and Confess Jesus is Lord – Lord of the Cosmos!
The Apostle Paul exhorts all believers to “walk in the spirit” of which we are born by the light of the nine manifestations and 9 fruit of the spirit. When we die – our spirit – goes back to God. The gift of spiritual birth of holy spirit does not exist outside of us. There is only One True Spirit outside of us – Yahweh the One True God of Israel who is the ONE Eternal Spirit.
When Jesus died, he said: “Father, into your hands I commend my spirit”. The Apostle Paul plainly teaches that the God and Father of Jesus is also the God and Father of all whom believe. Our God and Father is Yahweh the ONE True God of Israel and the ONE Eternal Spirit.
Does one have to confess the doctrine of the Trinity in order to be saved?
The doctrine of the Trinity is that the Father is God, the Son is God, the Holy Spirit is God, and together these “three Persons” make one God; and these three are co-equal and co-eternal, the Son having been “eternally begotten” of the Father, and Jesus being simultaneously 100% God and 100% man.
This teaching which is the reasoning of men under the influence and darkness of the Adversary of God was fostered upon the Church in creeds: The Nicene Creed and the Athanasian Creed which requires one to believe the Trinity in order to be saved.
When so called “Orthodox” Christian Scholars first instituted the doctrine of the “Trinity” – they tortured and killed those whom refused to believe and confess the doctrine of the Trinity.
Yahweh the Lord God does not teach this in His written word .
When you believe the truth of that Yahweh is the One True God and the ONE Eternal Spirit as He revealed Himself to be to the nation of Israel – You reverence the One True God – Yahweh – and Honor Him as your Heavenly Father as Jesus taught.
Wordlight Fellowship is committed to the light Jesus had a beginning – his birth. The word translated “birth” in the original text was genesis, or “beginning.” Yahweh One true God of Adam, Abraham and Israel had a Son, who was of the lineage of Abraham and David, born of a virgin, lived and died in obedience to God, was raised from the dead by God, and ascended to the right hand of God. Yahweh the Lord God sent the promised gift of holy spirit on the day of Pentecost.
This promised spirit was the confirmation that Yahweh had appointed His son both the Messiah & Lord.
All of this was taught in the Old Testament and confirmed in the New Testament without once teaching that in order to have everlasting life you had to believe in a Triune God
Jesus is a man whom has experienced the gamut of human emotions – he wept over Jerusalem & the people – he died to ratify the New Covenant for Israel.
Yahweh the ONE True God of Israel is the God & Father of Jesus our Lord – May HE be blessed forever & ever for establishing peace with Him through Jesus on the day of Pentecost.
If God had not applied the promised spirit that came on the day of Pentecost to all mankind – there would be NO Christians. Only Israelis would have the gift of spiritual birth of holy spirit.
Glory to Yahweh the ONE True God of Israel. Amen
ONE Question: Whom do you consider to be the ONE True God: The ONE True God of Israel or a Trinitarian God – a polytheistic non-existent God?
Yahweh the Lord God is the ONE Eternal Spirit. Yahweh is not a man whom can lie to us. Yahweh is Spirit.
We whom believe Jesus is the Messiah of Yahweh the Lord God and confess Jesus is Lord and believe Yahweh the ONE True God of Israel has raised His only begotten son from the dead are members of the Church of His Body the Lord Jesus, by baptism of holy spirit.
We are literally baptized with holy spirit and this baptism of holy spirit makes each of us a member in particular of The Church of His Body the Lord Jesus.
We are to endeavor to walk in the spirit by the light of the 9 manifestations and 9 fruit of the spirit because of our love for Yahweh the Lord God and the Lord Jesus for establishing “spiritual” fellowship. Each of us have all 18 evidences of the gift of holy spirit within us.
We are to speak the truth of THE FAITH in love.
The Lord Jesus said this spirit we have within us by baptism is the spirit of truth.
We are to walk in the Bonds of Fellowship with integrity, love and courage.
Do we truly appreciate and respect our Spiritual Birthright?
We receive the Armor of Light and baptism of holy spirit since the day of Pentecost.
We are to endeavor to keep the unity of our bonds of spiritual fellowship in the light of the truth that by baptism of holy spirit we are made a member of the Body of Christ. There is only ONE Body.
We are the Church of His Body the Lord Jesus.
We are the Light of the World!!!
Let us obey the command of the Apostle Paul and walk in the spirit.
DO You have a Dream? An amazing song by Selena Marie Gomez
In the course of human events the only begotten son of the ONE True God, Jesus in Latin, Joshua in English and Yeshua in Hebrew, whose name means “help of God”, secured peace with God for all mankind by giving his life as a sacrifice for atonement of the sin of Adam, the first recorded son of God, whom compromised the integrity of his fellowship with God when he disobeyed the expressed word he received from the ONE True God while he was in the Garden of Eden, Paradise; AND
Reformation in our relationship with the ONE True God whom is “Spirit” became possible through Jesus in the year of his death, resurrection and ascension into heaven to the right hand of power – Almighty God. This reformation unto mankind became a reality when the appointment of Jesus as both the Messiah of Mankind and Lord of the Cosmos was confirmed by the fulfillment of the promise of the spirit being sent on the day of Pentecost. The promised spirit made available adoption by God with the gift of spiritual birth of holy spirit for all whom believe God raised His only begotten son Jesus from the dead and confess Jesus is Lord. This spiritual birth has made spiritual fellowship with God and Jesus available for all whom believe the veracity of the Gospel of Jesus.
God has called mankind unto fellowship through His only begotten son Jesus since the day of Pentecost. God has adopted us as His children and has given us an inheritance as a heir with Abraham and co-heirs with Jesus. Paul, given grace to be an Apostle as a servant of Jesus, states God in His grace, love and mercy since the day of Pentecost gives us the ONE baptism by Jesus with the unconditional gift of spiritual birth of holy spirit which makes us members of the ONE family of God forever as members of the Ekklesia of Grace; literally, giving us unity through this ONE baptism as the Church of His Body, Jesus, whom was also duly appointed the head of the Church of His Body as well as the Messiah of God and Lord of the Cosmos since the day of Pentecost.
The Apostle Paul explains we have been given the unconditional gift of ever-lasting life and unconditional spiritual fellowship in this life by the gift of spiritual birth of holy spirit – power from on high with nine manifestations and nine fruit since the day of Pentecost.
We have also been given the gift of a new spiritual birthright – the Armor of Light – to enable us to be a co-worker with the One True God as an ambassador of His only begotten son – the Lord Jesus, to enable us to live free of the oppression and darkness of the Adversary – Satan – and to enable us to build up the Church of His Body in our commitment to the Bonds of Fellowship.
In the course of fellowship in the sixteenth century of the second millennium since the day of Pentecost, members of the Church of His Body chose to believe the light of the Faith their research had revealed; AND
Refusing to be apathetic in their commitment to the bonds of fellowship, they brought about Reformation in many fellowships of the Church of His Body when they chose to free themselves from the oppression and darkness of the Catholic Hierarchy that refused to let go of their creeds and traditions contrary to the light of the Faith revealed at that time; AND
We, members of the Church of His Body in the course of fellowship in the second year of the third millennium, in our endeavor to be co-workers with the ONE True God as ambassadors of His only begotten son – the Lord Jesus, in the Ministry of Reconciliation to reconcile people to the ONE True God and faithful servants to help build up the Church of His Body, are committed in our commitment to the bonds of fellowship to be a light of the Faith to the Church of His Body of our Spiritual Birthright the Armor of Light made available to us since the day of Pentecost; AND
Determined to save succeeding generations from the oppression and darkness of the current Hierarchy of Fellowships in the Church of His Body, whose fellowships have corrupted the Faith and compromised the integrity of their commitment to the bonds of fellowship with creeds and traditions contrary to the Armor of Light – Our Spiritual Birthright; which creeds and traditions have caused oppression and darkness in our lifetime; AND
Empowered by our commitment to the bonds of fellowship to be a light of the Faith to stand against the oppression and darkness of the Adversary – Satan, which oppression and darkness the Lord Jesus gave his life to deliver us from, see it is our responsibility to encourage our fellow members of the Church of His Body to heed the apostolic exhortation of the Apostle Paul to “cast off the works of darkness” and establish our unity by the light of the “Armor of Light” – our spiritual birthright since the day of Pentecost with integrity, love and courage in the bond of peace in order for us to live a godly life for our individual and collective growth in our commitment to the bonds of fellowship with God our Father, His only begotten son, Jesus our Messiah & Lord, and our fellow members of the Church of His Body: The Light of the World!

Greetings in the name of Almighty God whose name is Yahweh, and in the name of His son the Lord of the Cosmos whose name is Jesus and the bonds of spiritual fellowship we have by our baptism of holy spirit.
OUR World: A Message from OUR Charlize Theron @ Charlize Theron Africa Outreach Project and Mpilonhle :
We are members in particular of The Church literally by our baptism of holy spirit.
The moment we believe God has raised His son from the dead and we
Confess Jesus is Lord
We receive spiritual life by our baptism of holy spirit. This spiritual birth of holy spirit within us unites us with Yahweh Almighty God, His son Jesus the Messiah and Lord of the Cosmos and with one another as members of The Church no matter where in the world you live.
An Amazing Song by Miley Ray Cyrus: “Who Owns My Heart” I want to point out that as members of The Church of His Body – Jesus our Lord we are truly God’s Masterpiece by our baptism of holy spirit.
The FAITH is our light in this world under the darkness and oppression of the Adversary whose name is Lucifer aka Satan aka the Devil aka Dark Angel.
The Wordlight Research Fellowship is committed to the light of THE FAITH as revealed by Yahweh. His Word is of spiritual origin from Him.
Yahweh is revealed in His word to be Almighty God. Yahweh is Spirit and He is Eternal. Yahweh is the only Spirit in the universe outside of us. Yahweh is the ONE Eternal Spirit. There is no other Eternal Spirit. The light of His word reveals Yahweh alone is the ONE True God.
Yahweh has rescued us from the power of Darkness aka Satan through His only son born of the flesh of his mother Mary. It is through His son Jesus that we have received baptism of holy spirit.
This baptism of holy spirit is the promised holy spirit sent on the Jewish festival Pentecost. This baptism of holy spirit on this particular day confirmed Yahweh has appointed His son Jesus both the Messiah & Lord.
We celebrate Pentecost as the birthday of The Church. This day of Pentecost is vital to our understanding of THE FAITH, i.e. Jesus was born of God His Father, Jesus was faithful to the light of the Old Testament and he sacrificed his life to ratify the New Covenant with his pure blood, God his Father raised him from the dead and he ascended to the right hand of Almighty God his God and Father and our God and Father.
Wordlight Fellowship is committed to the light of the Gospel of Jesus that once we believe God his Father raised His son Jesus from the dead and we Confess Jesus is Lord, meaning Lord of the Cosmos, we are baptized with holy spirit and given everlasting life by GRACE.
Once we Confess Jesus is Lord we receive everlasting life in the age to come and spiritual fellowship with God and Jesus in this life by our baptism of holy spirit by grace. This gift of holy spirit by grace is a new creation within us. The Apostle Paul says that by this baptism of holy spirit God has put His love in our heart. Romans 5:5.
We receive this holy spirit right at the moment we make our confession Jesus is Lord. We do not have to ask for it or wait for it. We receive this holy spirit by grace.
The Word of God reveals the Messiah is the focus of The Holy Scriptures from Genesis to Revelation.
The Apostle Paul admonishes each one of us to
“CAST OFF THE WORKS OF DARKNESS AND PUT ON THE ARMOR OF LIGHT: Romans 13:12
The Wordlight Research Fellowship through Biblical Research is faithful to the light of THE FAITH as revealed to us in the written word. We do not ignore facts or contradict God who is the Author of His Word. We do not engage in mysticism because we do not see any mysticism given us by God. We do not ask you to believe anything based on blind faith. We ask you to believe only what God has revealed to mankind through His written word.
We who are faithful to the Word as received by us from God are dedicated to the light of our baptism of holy spirit which makes us the righteousness of God and gives us spiritual fellowship with Yahweh Almighty God, His son Jesus the Messiah & Lord of the Cosmos and with one another. Our goal as believers of THE FAITH is to walk in the spirit by the light of the 9 manifestations and 9 fruit of our holy spirit within us.
Wordlight Fellowship encourages all to walk in the spirit and endeavor to be faithful ambassadors and ministers of the Lord Jesus with integrity, love and courage.
The Wordlight Research Fellowship goes beyond the written word in English. The Wordlight Research Fellowship endeavors to provide critical exegesis of the languages of the Bible. We use tools such as a lexicon, a concordance and online research software.
We are committed to the light Yahweh alone is Almighty God. Yahweh is the ONE Eternal Spirit and He is indivisible.
Yahweh has created the cosmos, the heavens and earth and humans to inhabit the earth. Psalms 24.
Yahweh had spiritual fellowship with Adam and Eve.
The Adversary of Yahweh usurped their relationship with Yahweh.
The result is that all mankind is born in estrangement with Yahweh.
Yahweh created a plan to bring about our spiritual fellowship with Him just like Adam and Eve had spiritual fellowship with Him.
Yahweh by His power created seed in Mary the mother of the Messiah of God. Mary conceived the Messiah and gave birth to the Messiah and named him Jesus as she had been instructed.
Yahweh gave his second son the opportunity to undo the work of the Adversary and reconcile all to Yahweh.
Jesus was faithful to his Father Yahweh and faithful to the light of THE FAITH in the Old Testament in his ministry to Israel.
In order to fulfill his mission as the Lamb of God, he realized he had to die.
Jesus was faithful unto death and ratified the New Covenant with his blood.
Yahweh accepted the death of His son as a peace offering between Himself and mankind.
Yahweh then created spiritual fellowship by sending the promised spirit on the day of Pentecost in the year of the death, resurrection and ascension of His son Jesus.
The day the promised holy spirit was sent confirmed Jesus was appointed by Yahweh his Father both the Messiah & Lord of the Cosmos.
All of us whom believe the light of THE FAITH and believe Yahweh has raised His son Jesus from the dead and Confess Jesus is Lord are baptized with holy spirit. This holy spirit is a new creation with us. This holy spirit allows us to have spiritual fellowship with Yahweh Almighty God, His son Jesus the Messiah & Lord of the Cosmos and with one another.
We are now members in particular of The Church of His Body – Jesus commonly known as the Body of Christ by our baptism of holy spirit.
The Apostle Paul exhorts us as members of THE CHURCH to be a co-worker with Yahweh as an ambassador of His son Jesus the Messiah & Lord of the Cosmos in the Ministry of Reconciliation.
The Wordlight Research Fellowship has been establishing the integrity of the biblical texts since 1989.
The Wordlight Research Fellowship invites YOU to partake of the research provided by the Wordlight Fellowship Ambassador Institute.
This instruction helps YOU to be an informed and effective Ambassador of the Lord Jesus and enables YOU to be able to obey the command of the Apostle Paul: Walk in the spirit by the light of the 9 manifestations and 9 fruit of holy spirit within YOU.
Wordlight Fellowship is committed to buildup leadership. Jesus our Lord ordains members of The Church of His Body to be Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Teachers and Pastors.
The Wordlight Research Fellowship endeavors to instruct and enlighten The Church of His Body that we are ONE Body composed of many fellowships worldwide as members in particular of the ONE Body.
We are united with the light of our Spiritual Birthright of the Armor of Light and our baptism of holy spirit.
We emphasize the commandments Love Yahweh with all your heart, strength and mind and Love ONE Another.
We also emphasize the commandment of the Apostle Paul to walk in the spirit and keep the unity of our spiritual fellowship in the Bond of Peace.
We have the real Star Wars force within us to obey these commandments.
Yahweh has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love and a sound mind, meaning the holy spirit within us only hears from Yahweh and His son Jesus. This holy spirit within us is as Jesus said is the spirit of truth.
We are equipped to be the light of the World as Ambassadors and Ministers of the Lord Jesus.
The Apostle Paul admonishes each of us to Cast off the works of Darkness and Put on the Armor of Light in our commitment to the Bonds of Fellowship – Romans 13:14.
We know from the light of the Holy Scriptures that in the course of human events since Adam, the first recorded son of God, a man by the name of Abraham established a relationship with Yahweh.
Abraham separated himself that worshipped a variety of gods by leaving his home and going in search of the ONE True God,
Abraham believed what he had been told about Adam and the promise of the Messiah.
As a consequence, Abraham is deemed to be the Father of all who believe on the Messiah of the ONE True God whose name is Yahweh.
The light of THE FAITH is that Adam and Eve were formed, made and created by Yahweh and enjoyed spiritual fellowship with Yahweh.
They compromised the integrity of their fellowship with Yahweh.
Lucifer got Adam & Eve to disobey Yahweh.
All people born since Adam & Eve are born under the dominion of Lucifer.
Adam told his progeny the prophesy of Yahweh that a Messiah would be born of the seed of a woman and he would deliver people from the bondage of Lucifer.
The light of the time of the birth of the Messiah was given to Daniel, a Prince of Israel.
In the fulness of time according to the prophecy given to Daniel, the Messiah whom Yahweh promised would be born was begotten by Yahweh when He planted seed in Mary and she conceived and gave birth to the Messiah.
Jesus was faithful unto death and secured peace with Yahweh for mankind by giving his life as a sacrifice to atone for the transgression of Adam.
This allowed Yahweh to rescue us from the oppression and Darkness of Lucifer by making available our baptism of holy spirit.
Jesus was uniquely qualified to be the Messiah of God. Yahweh is his Father. The fact that the blood of the child comes from the father means that Jesus had pure blood. Jesus was the Lamb of God with pure blood.
His sacrifice legally made peace with Yahweh for mankind and secured our redemption from Lucifer aka Dark Angel and everlasting death.
Jesus died by crucifixion upon a cross, a form of death used by the Romans to shame and humiliate a person before the public.
Reformation involving all peoples of the earth occurred the day the promised holy spirit was sent and spiritual fellowship for all mankind, both Judean and Gentile, was made available by baptism of holy spirit.
This day of Reformation could not have taken place without the sacrifice of Jesus whose PURE Blood made peace with Yahweh for all mankind.
This baptism of holy spirit on the day the promised holy spirit was sent confirmed that Jesus was truly risen from dead and appointed by Yahweh Almighty God both the Messiah and Lord of the Cosmos.
The Apostle Paul who wrote The Church Epistles gives us the light that our baptism of holy spirit makes us a son of God and that as a son of God we are heirs of God and joint-heirs with His son Jesus of the promises of Yahweh, including the promises given to Abraham who was called a friend of Yahweh Almighty God.
We are given the light in The Church Epistles that in this life we are literally made members of The Church of His Body – Jesus the Lord of the Cosmos, by our baptism of holy spirit.
We are also enabled to be light as we Cast off the works of Darkness and Put on the Armor of Light which is our Spiritual Birthright.
This baptism of holy spirit giving us spiritual fellowship and the Armor of Light as described by the Apostle Paul in Ephesians 6, is a real demonstration of the Love of Yahweh Almighty God to us through His son Jesus.
It is our responsibility to walk in the spirit and PUT ON THE ARMOR OF LIGHT.
We do this in our endeavor to be a co-worker with Yahweh Almight God as an ambassador of His son Jesus whom He has appointed both the Messiah & Lord of the Cosmos.
The people of the Reformation in the 16th Century chose the light of THE FAITH revealed to them by their research of the Holy Scriptures rather than remain under the oppression and in the Darkness of the Adversary of Yahweh in their lifetime.
We, members of The Church in the 21st Century, whom desire to serve the Lord Jesus in the Ministry of Reconciliation have a clear mandate to cast off the works of Darkness contrary to the written word of Yahweh Almighty God.
We are to confront with integrity, love and courage the oppression and Darkness of the Adversary.
We have received the baptism of holy spirit by grace and are able to walk in the spirit by the light of the nine manifestations and 9 fruit of our holy spirit within us.
Let us as members of The Church of His Body, in our service to Jesus work together to buildup one another and keep; literally guard, our spiritual unity established by Yahweh Almighty God thru His son Jesus by our baptism of holy spirit on the day of Pentecost.
Let us be light to cast off the oppression and Darkness of the Adversary as a co-worker with Yahweh Almighty God as an ambassador of His son Jesus whom He appointed both the Messiah & Lord of the Cosmos.
There is only ONE Gospel whereby we have spiritual fellowship with Yahweh Almighty God, His son the Lord Jesus and one another by our baptism of holy spirit by grace, and have the Armor of Light. Galatians 1: 1-12 and Ephesians 6.
Glory to Yahweh Almighty God for making spiritual fellowship and everlasting life available for all mankind. Amen.
Greetings in the love of God the Father, His son the Lord Jesus and the bonds of spiritual fellowship we have by our baptism of holy spirit.
Preamble to Wordlight Fellowship USA, Inc
Whereas, it is the express purpose of God our Heavenly Father to call out of the world a saved people who constitute the Body of Christ as members in particular and freely contribute to buildup the Body of Christ, built and established on the foundation of the prophets and apostles, Jesus our Lord being the chief cornerstone set by God.
Whereas, the members of the Church of his Body Jesus our Lord, meaning Lord of the Cosmos, are enjoined to assemble ourselves together to engage in worship, fellowship, counsel, instruction in the Word of Yahweh Almighty God and do the work of the ministry in the exercise of our spiritual gifts in our service as members in particular and ordained ministers of Jesus our Lord as he equips us and directs us to buildup The Church of his Body by the authority he has given us as his ambassadors and servants to be a witness to his resurrection and our spiritual fellowship given us by our baptism of holy spirit giving us spiritual birth of holy spirit by grace,
therefore,
Be it resolved, that we recognize ourselves as a Fellowship of followers of Jesus our Lord working together for the common purpose of being a co-worker with Yahweh Almighty God to promote the gospel of his son Jesus whom He has duly appointed both Messiah and Lord of the Cosmos and given all authority over affairs of the Church of his Body,
Therefore, we have established a legal entity in the State of Florida named Wordlight Fellowship USA, Inc, so that we may exercise all the rights and privileges the law grants to legally established fellowships.
Just before Easter when Jesus was crucified fellowships in The Church of His Body Jesus our Lord take time to fast and pray.
In my prayers I will be praying for YOU.
I specifically will pray that YOU learn to rightly divide the word of truth.
When YOU make this effort YOU will learn to walk in the spirit we have been baptized with by Jesus our Lord.
Jesus our Lord said the holy spirit is the spirit of truth. This holy spirit is inside of us and God and Jesus speak to us via holy spirit.
The truth is simple. We are given the gift of spiritual fellowship now in this life and if we should die before Jesus is sent to gather us together, then Jesus will resurrect us from the dead and give us an immortal human body just like his immortal body. We are given this by grace.
Yet back in the 16th century, a man who rightly divided the word of truth and taught we are given everlasting life by grace was killed by the Roman Catholic Fellowship when he refused to compromise the truth.
Think about this. He gave his life for the truth.
Jesus our Lord was a faithful witness to the truth unto death.
The Apostle Paul refused to compromise the truth of the Gospel of Jesus and rebuked those whom would teach contrary to the truth of the Gospel of Jesus our Lord..
Now think about this: The Roman Catholic Fellowship after 4 centuries after the 16th century Reformation has finally acknowledged we are saved by grace. Roman Catholic ministers are teaching people to walk in the spirit. They speak in tongues!
The path taken in the 3rd century by the fellowship established in Rome was very dark.
They changed the truth God is Spirit and Indivisible into a lie called the Trinity that God is 3 persons in one.
They tortured and killed those whom refused to believe and confess this lie.
Yahweh alone is the ONE TRUE GOD. There is no other god before or after him. He alone is THE ETERNAL SPIRIT.
They associated hades with hell. Hell is just the grave. They taught YOU live on after death and either go to heaven or hell.
The Apostle Paul received by revelation that no one will be with Jesus our Lord until the Lord Jesus gathers us together. At that time those who have died as a member of The Church of His Body will be resurrected from the dead and those living members of The Church of His Body will be caught up into the air with the resurrected and all of us will be with the Lord from that point on forever.
God formed Adam from the dust of the earth.
God made Adam a living soul. The life of the soul is in the blood. When you take your last breath you no longer intake oxygen to the blood and you will die. Your soul is dead and your body will return to the dust of the earth.
God created holy spirit within Adam and Eve. We have holy spirit the moment we believe God raised Jesus our Lord from the dead and Confess Jesus is Lord. Jesus was duly appointed the Messiah and Lord and Head of The Church of His Body shortly after his ascension into heaven and this was confirmed when the promised spirit was sent on the day of Pentecost..
Our spirit goes back to God . Jesus said before he died on the cross: Father into your hands I commend my spirit. If we die before the Lord Jesus gathers us together, the holy spirit “ of which we are born by grace returns” to God (Eccles. 12:7).
No Judean taught we go to heaven or hell after we die. Peter told the people listening to him on the day of Pentecost that David was dead in his grave but God has resurrected Jesus from the dead. Acts 2:29-32 and 34 (ESV) (29) “Brothers, I may say to you with confidence about the patriarch David that he both died and was buried, and his tomb is with us to this day. (30) Being therefore a prophet… (31) he foresaw and spoke about the resurrection of the Christ, that he was not abandoned to Hades, nor did his flesh see corruption. (32) This Jesus God raised up, and of that we all are witnesses. (34) For David did not ascend into the heavens…
Jesus did not teach his desciples that they would be with him after they died.
John 14:3 (ESV) And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also. He taught that he would return and then they would be with him.
The priests of the Judean Temple were annoyed with the Apostles because they were teaching the people resurrection from the dead by the Lord Jesus. Acts 4:1&2.
We do not have an immortal soul that goes to be with Jesus our Lord after we die. The life of the soul is in the blood and as long as we breathe in oxygen we are alive.
There is coming a day of judgment for the just and unjust. This day of judgment is the day they will be resurrected from the dead.
The clear teaching of the gathering together cannot be contradicted. God does not contradict himself. Jesus does not contradict himself. The Apostle Paul does not contradict himself. All three do not contradict each other.
Let us now study what fellowships take out of context and try to contradict the gathering together.
1 Corinthians 15:51. Here the Apostle Paul teaches the Corinthians of a future transformation.
Our earthly body is called a tabernacle of God.
2 Corinthians 5:1 When this earthly tabernacle dies, we will be given a new immortal body by Jesus our Lord in the future. Jesus is the only one in heaven with God.
2 Corinthians 5:2 Paul does not here say that a person goes to heaven when they die. Our new body has its origin from heaven which is where Jesus is right now at the right hand side of The Throne of God.
2 Corinthians 5:3&4 The Apostle Paul earnestly desired to receive his immortal body from the Lord Jesus. He states he does not want to die but be transformed to everlasting life.
2 Corinthians 5:5-7 The Apostle Paul explains Jesus is with us now spiritually by our spiritual birth of holy spirit. This earnest of holy spirit is our future guarantee of everlasting life and we will be with the Lord Jesus when he gathers us together.
2 Corinthians 5:8 The Apostle Paul explains that he would rather be present with the Lord which will be in the future when he is given a new immortal body. The Apostle Paul does not say that he or any person will be present with the Lord upon death.
2 Corinthians 5:9 The Apostle Paul exhorts the Corinthians to continue in THE FAITH despite their heavy persecution and tribulations and it does not matter if we die before the appearing of our Lord because Jesus will resurrect us from the dead and give us an immortal human body just like his.
We are taught by the Apostle Paul that death is an enemy. Yet let us read what he says in Philippians 1:21 For to me, for me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.
Fellowships in The Church of His Body Jesus our Lord teach that the reason to die is gain is that the Apostle Paul said he would go to heaven after he died. How then is death an enemy???
The Apostle Paul explains even though he is in prison his imprisonment has served to advance the Gospel of Jesus Philippians 1:12-14
Verse 20: (20) I eagerly expect and hope that I will in no way be ashamed, but will have sufficient courage so that now as always Christ will be exalted in my body, whether by life or death. The Apostle Paul says that if he is put to death, his death will be gain for the exultation of Christ and the furtherance of the Gospel.
Thus we see that the Apostle Paul was looking for the appearing of Jesus our Lord which was better than living or dying in this tabernacle.
2 Timothy 4:8 Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love His appearing.
The Apostle Paul clearly knows that at theappearing of Jesus we will be with the Lord Jesus. No one before that time will be in heaven.
Do YOU understand now why it is so critical to rightly divide the word of truth?
We are to look for the appearing of the Lord Jesus in this life because this is when both the dead and living will be gathered together by him and we will be with the Lord forever in an immortal body just like his.
We should be so thankful Jesus was faithful unto death.
God accepted his death as a peace offering for all mankind. God sent the promised spirit on the day of Pentecost and spiritual fellowship was made available for anyone, whether Jew or Gentile.
Let us remember his death and celebrate that God raised Jesus from the dead this Easter 2017.
