The Banner of Truth
Christ speaks of two men, one in the city of Jerusalem, like an olive branch on the rooftop, for the Feast of Tabernacles.The other is in the field, separated, but repents in time to ESCAPE, for Christ tells him NOT TO RETURN to grab his clothing.It shows the people gathering together in Jerusalem, in the fall festival season!Now we come to Ezra 9-10. It is talking about the body of Christ. Some have joined themselves to “strange women” or other churches! They call themselves the Church of God, yet are joined to other churches! They are fence riding!Those who make the separation in obedience to God, away from these groups, will escape the tribulation by coming to Jerusalem! Because obedience matters to them! They love God and Love His Truth! God is priority!!!!Are you obedient? Do you love God brethren? Or does assembling with “another church” outweigh your obedience to God?Will that red soup taste good later on when it’s gone?In Ezra 10, we read about the council of the Lord, and the council of the elders.Aaron Dean is the last member of the Adisory Council of Elders, established through obedience and by the name and authority of Jesus Christ , through the apostle of Jesus Christ!He is the duly appointed!I’m going to Jerusalem, this fall season, with other members of the Worldwide Church of God, to stand up and support God in obedience, to lift up the banner of truth, and to support and lift up the Philadelphia candlestick! To fetch the olive branches!I had hoped there would be more brethren coming, but by the mouth of two or more witnesses the matter is established.Mr Dean would be in the field, then, but like a branch plucked from the fire!I don’t see anyone else saying these things brethren! No one else is fighting and going through the pain thraws of birthing a restoration of the Worldwide Church of God! They all want to build up their separate group! But we must be obedient to God. And BELIEVE WHAT HE SAYS IN HIS WORD!Do you believe?

Who is going to be in Jerusalem, which is spiritually to be called Sodom and Egypt (Rev 11:8)?
Taking scriptures and putting them together here a little, and there a little (which we learned to do via WCG/HWA), may result in what? A bunch of false prophecies, causing one to: "...fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken."
Jeremiah mentioned those who prophesied false dreams:
"Behold, I [am] against them that prophesy false dreams, saith the LORD, and do tell them, and cause my people to err by their lies, and by their lightness; yet I sent them not, nor commanded them: therefore they shall not profit this people at all, saith the LORD." Jer 23:32
To believe or not to believe: that may be a question. How does that “believe” come?
As far as the words of the Bible are concerned: "And what [is] the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power," Eph 1:19
But to believe Samuel's words? How much shall anyone profit by any belief in Samuel’s words/thoughts?
Time will tell...
