God has sent his warning message to all COG members who are in Jezebel splinter groups to repent and return to the one true Worldwide Church of God so that you can support the two witless witnesses that can only arise out of the one true faith.
When wolves came in, and the discontented took over our facilities and congregations, it was not evil to leave them and avoid them. What they did there, was they spoiled the Church, ransacked the assets and properties, and left it in ruins.We are left in a situation like Zechariah and Haggai. Which is about the Temple of God being restored in Jerusalem.That began with Herbert W Armstrong. He is the Zerubbabel type Christ is using.The hands of Zerubbabel are the two witnesses(Zechariah 4), and they are finishers of the Zerubbabel work.Ultimately we will be based and Headquartered out of Jerusalem, with Christ at His return.When we arrive in Jerusalem before the Tribulation, we are going to be there to support the men of God who will be the two witnesses. Because of our obedience to God, we shall receive the promise of Jesus Christ(Rev.3:10). We are going to be protected.Those who are separated at that point, in any other church and/or organization, will need to repent, and keep the commandments of God and have the testimony of Jesus Christ. Their era, is an era where the Church of God is an obedient Church.
They were just fooling themselves beforehand, because Jezebel, that Great whore, desired them to be separated into their own groups. And being involved with that religious confusion, and having facilities given them from that Jezebel, they will go into the Great Tribulation where half of them will repent.(Matthew 25)But as Revelation 2 says, they can repent beforehand and become right with God and “…Come out of her, my people, lest you take part in her sins, lest you share in her plagues;“for her sins are heaped high as heaven,and God has remembered her iniquities.”(Rev. 18:4-5)The Great Tribulation is correction intended for people to respond to God’s call to separate from sin and the great Whore. But we can separate today, now, before the Tribulation if we are diligent and faithful. Samuel Kitchen
Samuel is defining Christianity as attending the right church. Rather, the fundamental definition is one who follows Christ. All churches and splinters are morally compromised, so the issue is one of finding a tolerable splinter and one in which the church crazies are restrained.
ReplyDeleteAnd where does it say that half the church members will repent in the tribulation? For the "weak of the world" this repentance might be too little and too late since it takes time to build character.
