The Works of God Come Through Divine Revelation

The main ideas from this information are: - The works of God come through divine or godly revelation. - Revelation comes from God and is recorded in the scriptures. - Many leaders, prophets, and religious leaders do not have the truth or revelation from God. - The Bible is God-breathed and every word is the revelation of God. - Those who seek God and His truth will be revealed to them. - God wants us to seek Him and fill us with His wisdom and knowledge. - The wise and intelligent of this world are not wise and intelligent in the things of God. - The words of Jesus are spirit and life. - The revelation of God brings eternal life. Greetings to everyone. The works of God comes through divine or godly revelation is quite a massive topic and we'll attempt to do at least some credibility to this to understand where revelation comes from, what revelation is, and how it affects us personally and the world because the kingdoms of this world, the kings, the presidents, the prime ministers, the judges, the prophets, those who are telling us that they're speaking for God, if they have not have the truth of God as it is recorded in the scriptures reveal to them they simply do not have the truth. They do not have the revelation from God. Full stop. Period. Now of course we would have many theologians, we would have many wise men say that what you're saying is a lie. It's not true. Well what does God say? What did Jesus Christ have to say? Let's turn and look at some scriptures. Let's have a look at Luke and on Luke we want the 10th chapter to see who God reveals his truth to. Question, are you, am I, in this particular category? Let's have a look. Luke the 10th chapter and we'll pick it up here in verse 21. Luke 10 and verse 21. We're just breaking into the context to see what Jesus had to say. In the same hour Jesus rejoiced in the spirit and said, I praise you, O father, Lord of heaven and earth. You see to even know that, that God the father is the Lord of the heavens and the earth, that's got to be real to you. Now you can know that by the hearing of your ear, but as Job said, you know, I birthed you God from me by the hearing of my ear. He said, now my eye sees you. It wasn't until God interacted with him, God began to show who Job was. You know, just a little pimple on the, on the skull's flesh compared to God. He said, now my eye sees you. What was Job saying? Was he talking about the physical eye or was he talking about the eye to his mind, the eye to his heart? I think you know the answer to that one. You did hide these things from the wise. Well, who are the wise? Well, today it is those men and women who are kings and queens. It is those who are the rulers of the nations, the so-called prophets, and most of those are false prophets, or the religious leaders who have gained their superior positions or prominence. We also look at the wise. Today, however, though, when we look at a lot of these leaders, we look at the judges, we look at the politicians, we find what God says that because of the things within our nations, God has removed them. And God has given us men who even know less about God, even know less about God, who don't want to know about Him. Now, judges, look at the criminal system today. It is the innocent or those who have not committed crimes that are being put in the prison. And don't you rape, kill, steal, and totally corrupt a mind that put out on the streets to repeat it. So, really, those who claim to be wise, or those who should be wise, are far from it. All right, continuing. You did hide these things about himself, about God the Father, and did reveal them to the goblins. Yes, Father, for it was well-pleasing in your sight in your sight to do so. So, question, do you consider yourself a babe in Christ? Or perhaps do you feel that you have had so much study of the Bible, you've been in the church so long, I'm one of the wives, I'm no longer a babe. Should we ever lose this principle, this concept? Because if we begin to think that we are more mature than we are, then what's going to happen is that we will find, little by little, the wisdom that God brought to us because we were like little children, like babes, responding to parents who believed every word they say. So, we must continue as little children, even as babes, taking in every word that proceeds from the mouth of God. And where do we find that? In the entirety of the Bible. Every book in the Bible. Yes, there's a lot of history, a lot of teaching, but every word in the Bible is God-breathed. And what does that tell us? Every word coming from God is the revelation of God. So, don't ever let anyone tell you that there are a lot of errors or untruths or lies or myths in the Bible. That, in itself, is a lie. And, of course, we find a lot of the prophets or the false prophets in this world, that's what they're percolating day after day. Let's have a look at this again in Matthew, the 11th chapter. Same subject, just quoted a little differently. Matthew, the 11th chapter, and we can pick this up in verse 25. You know, God says something once. He means it. When He says it twice, we know He not only means it, but it's sealed. Sealed in the Word and sealed in the Spirit, unchangeable, un-redactable. And we're very well about that today, don't we, on documents that have been redacted. And what's left is very little. Well, that's what men have done with the Bible. They have redacted the Bible in the minds of those who read it, so that when people read it, they say, well, you know, this can't be true because, you know, the Pope says this, or the Archbishop of Canterbury says this. No, those are not men of God. They're following the religion of Satan, the devil. And Satan is using those men and many leaders and those in high offices of high power and authority is using them in his plan and plot to deceive the whole world. And we have to be able to see through that. And I know I'm speaking to the converted, but these messages go out on the Internet, and if God wants these words to go out, as it says in Isaiah, God sends His Word forth. And He said it will accomplish what He sends it to do and will not return to Him void. And one of those we know is in Matthew 24, the preaching of the gospel. Can all nations to convert them? No, but as a witness, so that the nations, the kings, the presidents, the prime ministers, the high and mighty, the lofty, the wealthy are without excuse. Now with that same Word, what is God going to do? God is going to reach out to those that are seeking Him, crying after Him, asking Him, I want to know who you are. I want you, God. I've heard of you with the hearing of my ear, but I want to see you. I can recall doing that as a teenager. And I did it for, it must have been about seven years, because seven years later, God answered that prayer. So the point here is, never give up, we must continue to endure like the woman running to the unjust judge. We haven't practiced the unjust judge, but God wants us to assail His throne through the body of Jesus Christ, a veil that takes us right into the very temple of God, right into God's presence. He wants us to assail His throne. God wants to know how serious you are. He wants to know how serious I am. What am I prepared to do to get into the throne of God so that He will reveal His truth, His knowledge, His wisdom, and to fill me, as Norbert mentioned in the opening prayer, to fill us with the mind of Christ. What did Jesus say, Joel 6, 63? The Spirit, it is the Spirit that is life. The flesh profits nothing. And coming up to Passover and Unleavened Bread, as was mentioned by many of the comments initially, we're attempting to get rid of the Lord out of our lives. And I've just been through the transcript of the message for the first day of Unleavened Bread, and if you can get hold of that and read or read it online before the first day of Unleavened Bread, you will find so much. I found so much more, even though I've known these things for decades. God, through His Spirit, continues to reveal a little bit here, a little bit there, and adds to our knowledge, adds to our understanding, and adds to His understanding, adds to His wisdom in here and in here. As He gives it into our minds and as we obey it, He takes His finger and He inscribes it deeply into the fleshy tablets of our hearts. Now, God is not doing that to the rest of mankind. God is sending out the very message. Today, God is dealing with His church. And that's one of the topics that we need to have a look at. We know about this, but we need to revisit it, visit this. Now, I'm not saying anything here, really, that's new, but we need to be going over and meditating and repeating the readings and coming to a deeper and deeper understanding. We can read a verse one day, we can read it the next day, and God will add meaning to it. You know that. I know that. Who experienced it? Okay, did we get to Matthew 11? I don't think we did, did we? Matthew 11, verse 25. At that time, Jesus answered and said, I praise you, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you have hidden these things from the wise and intelligent. Brethren, we just need to understand this. The wise and intelligent of this world are not wise and they're not intelligent in the things of God and the revelations that God has put there for anyone who wants to seek them, to find them. They're too busy seeking their knowledge from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. And regardless, what's the end result of eating the fruit of the true knowledge of good and evil, being a philanthropist and giving millions of dollars to this country, that country, to this organization, to that organization? The end of that is what? Death. Because they're not eating, as we are able to today, the tree of life, the tree of eternal life. As Jesus went on to say in John 6, in verse 63, the words that I speak to you. Well, I think I already mentioned that. He said, the flesh profits nothing. However, the words, the words that are written in scripture, they are spirit. Now, do we have God's spirit in our minds and in our hearts? So, Jesus said, the words that I speak to you are spirit. Are they not going to connect? Are they not going to meld with the Holy Spirit, the mind of Christ within us? Absolutely yes. So, the words I speak to you, they are spirit and they are what? They are spirits and they are life. That's life living God's way in the flesh right now. God is talking here. He's talking about eternal life. So, as our minds are filled with the revelation, all of this is revelation that you know that the world does not know. Do you think the king of England understands all of these things? Or do you think that he perhaps needs to do what Josiah did when the word of God is brought to him? You know what Josiah did, 2 Kings verse 22? When he saw the judgment of God on Jerusalem and on the people, he tore his clothes. And he cleansed up everything in that nation and gave the nation 12 years of peace because God revealed to him. Now, we know Josiah began ruling from the age of eight. But these other events happened at age 18. And he did what was pleasing in the eyes of God. And God gave peace until the nation didn't last. What would happen today if the king were to say, I have read in the scriptures that I must keep the Sabbath day because this is the command of God. It's only by keeping this that I know who the true God is. Is he going to find out who the true God is from the Church of England, which is one step away from the Church of Rome? No. What day do they keep? The first day of the week. I've often thought, and what's the best way to explain this is that day one, which today is called Sunday, is at the beginning of the week. The Sabbath is where? Day seven when God rested. What else did he do? He blessed and he sanctified the seventh day for eternity. And we know that that is only one part of the picture. That's the foundation. To that are the rest of God's Sabbaths. Now, if the king of England were to do this, rather than going to the archbishop, going to the Word of God and listen to what God has to say. Let's read that. Let's go back to Exodus, the 31st chapter. I'm putting this entirely out of context of my message or the message I believe that I've been preparing, but that doesn't matter because what's important is the Word of God. This is such a powerful witness to all kings, to all leaders, particularly those of the nations of Ephraim and Manasseh. Now, who were they? They were the sons of Joseph who, before his death, Jacob, whom God had renamed what? What was the name that God gave to Jacob, changing his name? Israel. Now, we have the twelve tribes and those are all coming from the body of Jacob and his wives. But when it came down to blessing, Ephraim and Manasseh, these two sons of Joseph, whom Jacob took to be his own and to become a part of the tribes of Israel with a very special promise. Jacob said, I am going to name my name on them. Israel. So today, Ephraim and Manasseh, and if you're not aware of the biblical understanding, the biblical teaching of who those are today, then you need to read the publication that we have available free, which is America and Britain in Prophecy. I have a copy right here. Two nations that changed the world. And when you read through Genesis and you see that blessing, you see that in our day, in our time, in the end time, that had changed the world. Where was the Bible sent out to many nations in the beginning? British Foreign Bible Study, British Foreign and Bible Society, sent out to many nations. And today, it's going out from where? From the United States, who in Prophecy is Manasseh. He is Manasseh. The fact we can't get away from. Now, when my church of God failed, you know what happened. Lawrence Hoover and New Jersey offices, and I've got this, I've said this publicly on the internet and other places. They no longer believe in the fact of the identity of the 12 tribes of Israel. Oh, we know where the Jews are, yes. But the 10 lost tribes? Well, DNA proves it. You know, it's not Britain or America. It's not the tribes of West Western Europe. You see what happened? They got the higher learning learning of the theological institutions of this world. And you know what the big theory is for theology? The one that they used to quote, well, what is theology? Well, the basic statement is that theology is faith, seeking, understanding. You may as well say, theology is seeking knowledge and understanding from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Because what did God say about understanding, knowledge, and wisdom? God says through the word a good understanding, meaning a good understanding of the ways of God. If you like, the theology of God, the teaching of God, a good understanding of all those that do what? That keep that keep your commandments. Ah, but the Old Testament is just so much driftwood. I was told that by a Presbyterian minister, I believe when I was a teenager, because I found that he was lying. I found that he knew nothing about the truth. And thankfully, because of crying out to God and really wanting to know him, God reached down and touched this miserable wretch of a human being from the uttermost part of the world. That's where I came from. I know my category. I know my category. God had to call me from a place called Bluff, New Zealand. It's the last drop-off point of the second island of the South Island. The next step up is the ocean all the way to the South Pole. And there was only one other place on earth that is further south than that, and that's the southern tip of South America. And I don't know, hopefully we have some brethren down there. But when God called you, when God called me, he did. He reached down to the bottom of the barrel. Let's see that in 1 Corinthians. Hopefully we finish that last scripture. If not, you can continue reading it. But let's just continue. We understand our pedigree. You see, because God is creating within you and within me as we humble ourselves before him, as we keep ourselves from presumptuous sins, as we get control of our lives according to the law of God, the will of God, being filled with God's Spirit, that we learn to rule over the sin that is within us. Do you think the kings, the presidents, the prime ministers, when we look at them today, presidents and all those leaders, the high and the mighty, the wealthy and the rich, that are controlling the world in wanting to eat bugs, do you think they are really wise? 1 Corinthians 11, down around verse 26. We all know that one by heart. No, I'm the wrong one. 1 Corinthians 1, isn't it? So, give me a moment. I'll get there very quickly. I've learned how to negotiate a little better with my iPhone. Now, Paul was talking to the Corinthians to give a message to them because they had many, many problems. And it was quite a task for Paul because he had to correct them. Now, no elder desires to have to correct God's people. But when one of God's sheep goes astray, in fact, this is a challenge to every one of us. We really have an obligation to go after that lost sheep or one that's got it stuck in the bush or amongst the briars. And sometimes you have to bring to the attention what they're doing to themselves. They're putting their eternal salvation on the line. They're risking, sometimes unknowingly. And we'll do whatever we can to try and rescue them, as you would, because of the love God has put in their hearts for a brother or sister who's going astray. So, let's come down here in the right place. We're in the right place. Verse 23. But we proclaim Christ crucified. And Paul said that for the Corinthians, the second chapter, that he determined to know nothing when he was preaching to the Corinthians except Christ and him crucified. Why? Because that is divine revealed knowledge. That's the time I said. That's the works of God in our hearts and minds. And as we pray and study daily, God is doing that work within our minds and within our hearts. We don't sing him, but we can read through his voice. As Jesus said, the words I speak to you, they are spirit. And also they're revealed by God the Father himself. Where did Jesus get his wisdom from? Where did he get his knowledge from? Where did he get his understanding from? God woke him up every morning and he was praying with God the Father. And God taught him all these things. He didn't learn it from the local pharisaical school. He didn't learn it from the local theological college. We used to say, well, the truth is buried. And that's what happened to many of our leading men, men that I knew personally over the years. And it was just amazing to see how they switched in turn because they were going to these theological colleges for their PhDs, that knowledge of lies, which is packed higher and deeper, and it turned their mind away from the simplicity that's in Jesus Christ. So we must never allow anyone to do that for us or to us. The whole book on Antichrist crucified, verse 23, to the Jews it's a cause of offense. That's true today. They reject Christ. And yet you and I were able to accept him and relish him. Why? How? Read on. And to the Greeks, in other words the other nations, the Gentile nations, it's foolishness. Christ and him crucified to the Jews is the cause of offense. And to the Greeks it's foolishness. In other words, what he's saying here, all the nations of the world, Christ crucified, it's foolishness to them. But he carries on. But to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ is God's power in God's wisdom. Because the foolish, I love this, the foolishness of God is wiser than men. And here are these learned men and women with all their knowledge, come a little foolishness. And what they call foolishness, we're reading, we're learning, and we're living by obeying it. And that foolishness to us is the wisdom of God, the power of God, to change our lives, and to be prepared to teach all these lies and know-it-alls in the world today, to teach them God's ways. I was just thinking this morning, there's a prophecy which shows that it's probably in the second resurrection, when all these individuals come up in the resurrection, and someone recognizes them. Oh, you were the archbishop, or you were a custodian, or you were this tally evangelist. Oh no, no, no, I wasn't. I was a farmer. And they look at their hands, a bunch of hands are white, clean, there's no no cuts on them, there's no hard flesh to the use of an instrument. Yeah, well, because the foolishness of God is wiser than men. So everything in the Bible is the word that God speaks to us. Now we have never seen God, and yet we have his word. What did Moses tell the Israelites, because they were prone to making liars right in the very beginning of the exodus? God told him, he said, look, you heard the one of thunder, you saw the flashing lights, you heard the words that God spoke to you, but you never saw anyone. What's Moses saying? Scrap your idols, scrap your idolatry. Look, if these messages of the gospel of Christ being crucified were to go into the palace, or the White House, or into the halls of government authority, that the words of God is going to be accepted, don't we hope, wouldn't we hope that the king, or the presidents, the prime ministers, that they would take the scriptures, they would read them, and see the calamity that's coming on the nations that they are ruling over, when God put them there. When God put them there, are they doing what God wants them to be, to rule over the people with judgment and justice, taking particular attention to care for the widows, the orphans, and those who are strangers, and I'm not talking here about illegals either, these who are genuine people. They've had everything stripped from them by the rulers, by the judges, the unjust judges, and by the political system, and even by a system that has been totally reversed, where evil is called good, and good is called evil. We need to praise God, the faint God, that he's taking, he has taken, but he is also taking from our eyes, stripping from our eyes, the blindness that's on the rest of the world. There's a word from Romans, sorry, Revelation 12, verse 9, Satan has blinded the whole world, and that includes kings, queens, princes. You know, what would happen, as I said, if the king were to read it and find that, look, the Sabbath is God's day, not Sunday. Who's going to read that before, but we'll get to that next. For you see, Hebrews 26, the one we know so well, for you see your calling, brethren, do you? Do you really see it, deep down, that you have no confidence in the flesh, that we know the flesh profits nothing, that there's only word of God, there's only the knowledge of God, there's only the wisdom of God, that's going to give us that life eternal? For you see your calling, yes, you were called from the foundation of the world. God appointed that he was going to call individuals during the Old Testament, the prophets and some kings. From the day of Pentecost, his church, and we may not get to it today, but we'll cover more of the subject next time, the church has such an important role, not just only for the earth, but for the creation. The church has got some little social group that we meet together and have a cup of tea, or coffee, or cakes. Church, when we come together and meet, Christ is there in our midst. And like Moses, well, you realize that we're the presence of God, the Father, and Jesus Christ, because he says, we're two or three gathered together in my midst, where am I in their midst? Do we pollute God's Sabbath by gossip, or talk that should not be named amongst the household of God? We are the household of God. I was sold. Sold is not the right word. God purchased my body, my flesh. He purchased my soul. God the Father purchased your soul. He purchased your flesh. You are a temple of God's Spirit, because God placed his Spirit within you. Are you going to, am I going to, live a way of life that pollutes the temple of God? A lot of this is covered in the message for the first day of Unleavened Bread, and it's put, you know, very positively. This may sound a little negative, but God wants to rescue each one of us from the fire. And, again, that nurture that is within wants to destroy us. Satan is the one who's the pulse of the power of the Word. He's the one who affects our minds and our hearts and turns us aside. One of the comments made in that sermon is that the older we get, the more we begin to realize how desperately wicked, how desperately evil is that nature within us. Now, I was thinking after hearing that, you know, the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, that's the way of human nature, isn't it? We know that. We know that. Okay, for you see your calling brethren, that there are not many who are wise according to the flesh. Yes, there are wise people in this world, and we can thank those who have studied the Word of God and given us the helps that they have, the understanding of the meaning of the Hebrew and the Greek texts. Those who have given us concordances where we can readily find and put a lot of material together. But when it comes down to the teachings, because these teachers either don't understand or reject the Sabbath day, and that have rejected the Passover for what? Easter? You know, eggs and rabbits and all that paraphernalia? Worshipping that ancient goddess Esther? Thankfully, there's quite a separation between the so-called celebration of the churches of this world. It is not a celebration of the church of God, the church that has the name of God, but not all churches of God are necessarily following the complete way of Christ and Him crucified. And we can read, coming up to Passover, no never bread, a good way to examine ourselves, as Paul encourages us, is to go to Revelation 2 and Revelation 3, where we have the history of the church as it was back in the first century when John was born to write this. Now, the history of the church as it's there in Revelation 2 and 3 was not out of the mind of John. We read in Revelation chapter 1 and verse 1 that God the Father gave these words to his son Jesus Christ and drove them to his angel to deliver to John. So this is the Word of God the Father is giving us the history of the church as it was among seven churches in Asia Minor. And down through history, we see the state in the church of God. Now, it may be reference to a specific church, or it may be a reference to each congregation that claims to be the church of God. And it tells us near the things that we need to repent of. Now, if you can go through there and find there's nothing you need to repent of, perhaps it'd be a good thing to go back again and do it a second time. And this time, before you do it, or before you do it, I'm telling myself, we ask God, Father, there are obviously things in my life because of the human nature within me that I can't see. I'm not aware of them. But because of your Word, I know it's still there. Please help me so that I'm able to repent of those and I'm able to walk in the paths of your laws and your commandments, your statutes and your judgments, your ordinances and your precepts. Briefly, what we have is the written law. Now, the written law, just take basically the Ten Commandments. That's the written law. That's the law. But it's also the commandments. Now, from the law and the commandments, what do we have? We have the statutes and judgments based on the Ten Commandments. And then beyond that, we have all the ordinances. For example, the Passover. Merchants talked about the way the ordinances kept. He showed the ordinances of Passover. There was a specific way in which it was to be done, which God commanded, the same way as Jesus introduced the Christian Passover. And you can read of that in John 13 and other places. Those ordinances. There's somebody, I don't recall where I heard that, there's one man or church who believes that we should do the wine, the bread and the wine, and have the foot washing after we've taken the bread and the wine. That was not according to Christ. That was not according to the Word of God. So, again, there are all those things. We're coming back to verse 26. Let's read that again. For you see your calling breath, and there are not many who are wise according to the flesh, not many who are powerful. And think of the wise and the powerful today. And again, I've never finished the statement. But what if the king were to read about the Sabbath and be, for one of them, they were gobsmacked that he'd been keeping the long day. And he made that personal decision to start keeping the Sabbath so that people would see his example. The same for the President of the United States, even with Manasseh, to show the rest of the country that I am now going to obey God and keep his Sabbath day. Do you think that would have an impact on the country? That's a rhetorical question, not expecting an answer. But just think about it. It's happened in the past, where deep repentance and obedience to the Word of God has happened. Think about what happens if you and I continually do worse. We've seen people witness what we're doing, and silently we're giving a witness of the faith that we have in the Father. That people ask us, where are you going? Well, not to say we're going down to the local football match, or in New Zealand, we've got Sail GP starting in the South Island today, actually, I believe. One of the sports that I do enjoy, sailing, watching some of these fast yachts, just the way they skim through the water. All right, continuing. Not many who are powerful, not many who are high among you. Maybe one or two. For most of us, we can say no. Rather, here's my pedigree, here's your pedigree in the eyes of God. Rather, God has called the foolish things of this world. We were, before God called us, we were foolish. We had no knowledge, we had no understanding. Why? So that he might put to shame those who are wise. And God has chosen the weak things of the world. So take courage, brethren. God chose you, God chose me, because we were the foolish, we were the weak to put to shame these highly intelligent men and women that are trying to change the world, they're trying to change the laws of God, they're trying to become gods themselves with all the so-called wonderful scientific products. Now, not all science is wrong, as long as it fits into the Word of God, Word of God, and what God has taught us and teaches us in his Word. And God has chosen the weak things of the world so that he might put to shame the strong things. Okay, next verse. And the loathsome of the world and the despised has God chosen. My pedigree, your pedigree. Even the things that are counted as nothing, not in God's eyes. We're counted as nothing by the world. We are nothing to the world. And why has God then done this in order that he might bring to nothing the things that are? God is going to crush the entire system that man has devised. And verse 29, so that no flesh may glory in his presence. So that's a good lesson for you and me. Lesson for you and me. God does not want you, God does not want me glorying in his presence. All the honor, all the glory, all the power, all the dominion, all the sovereignty, everything that is good and holy and righteous and true is God's. And you know that, and I know that. But we're just repeating these things to ourselves so we never forget, so that we can make that first resurrection, and we can be there to help Jesus Christ and be with him to bring in the ways of God to this world. I like that scripture in the book of Isaiah. Where God says, I believe it's Isaiah 40, a great chapter, where God says that all the notions in the world are like a drop in the bucket to him. And he takes it a step further. He says all the nations of the world are what? Less than a speck of dust on the balance. He takes it one step further. All the nations of this world, this is the kings, the princes, the prime ministers, the presidents, all those sitting in the powers of government and authority, all those sitting the roles, all those intelligent people that are trying to change the way man is, all those who are perverting and corrupting the sexual blessing that God gave to mankind so that the love of the family and the production of children for the family of God for all eternity, God has called us to be a part of that, to produce by what he's given to us, sons and daughters that can eventually become part of the family of God. And let's turn to Isaiah 57. Well there, all the nations, that's you and me and the rest of mankind, we're eight billion people right now. When God looks up from his position, we are less than nothing and vanity. But what does God reveal? What's his revelation? Somebody's probably already heard of me, Psalm 57. Breaking into verse 14, just as the introduction, and he says, Passed up, cast up, but clear the way. Take the stumbling block out of the way of my people. Sunday is a stumbling block. Easter is a stumbling block. All the pagan holidays, all the idols, a stumbling block before God's people Israel today, the twelve tribes. God wants us as a people, but we're not doing that to reflect his laws and commandments. But what's the revelation? We'll look at this next time. God is revealing his plans and his purpose through the church. And he's revealing this, not just to mankind, he's revealing it to the prince and palaties. In other words, to the angelic realm through the church. Where's that church? What is that church? How do I find that church? How do we enter that church? You know that. And there's so much information on that. But the church is the body of Christ. Christ is the head. He's dwelling in it. Continuing, all nations are less than nothing in vanity. So how important are the kings, the presidents, the prime ministers, the princes, the princesses? How important are they to God? They're less than nothing in vanity. I'm less. Let's read. For thus it says, verse 15, the high and lofty one whom inhabits eternity, whose name is holy. Brethren, the next is talking about you. It's talking about me. It's talking about all our brothers in the body of Christ, which is the church of God, then of him in the past, living now, and will live in future, until the color of the church, which is what I Pentecost, at the return of Christ. His name is holy. I dwell. This is revelation. God is telling you and telling me this right here and now. This is his word. It's spirit. I dwell in the high and holy place. Okay, what about you? What about me? Continue. England was the one who was of a contrite and humble spirit. Do we have that yet? The last other one is God's spirit would not be within us, because God resists the proud. Are we totally free then? No, we're not. We work now. We are work in progress. The work of God. The title, the works of God, comes through divine revelation, and this is what he's revealing to us now. Okay, we've read this before, but he keeps revealing to us over and over again. Why? Because we can be forgetful. I dwell, verse 15, in the high and holy place. England was the one who is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble and to revive the heart of the contrite ones. That's a revelation. That's a promise. That's the love of God. That's the mercy of God, and that is the works of God in his revelation. So, we'll finish here and pick that up next time.
