ARE YOU ONE OF THE WISE VIRGINS?

ARE YOU ONE OF THE WISE VIRGINS?
F O R E W O R D

The anticipated events of His coming describe in His parable of the Ten Virgins foreshadow the urgency of the moment and the need of readiness of every Christians in meeting our Lord Jesus. The crux of the matter lies on the readiness of having enough oil in our lamps as decisive issue whether we would be with Him in His kingdom or not. It is lamentable for those Christians among us who finds themselves lacking of oil for they will find themselves destined not to enter His Kingdom.

Today is an opportune time for us to fill our lamps with oil and have it continually lighted while remaining awake for any eventualities demanding our service. It is for this reason that we need to examine ourselves and be assured that we have sufficient oil to enter the Kingdom of God. There is nothing that could best equip us except the Word of God, especially those prophecies related to His coming and His judgment. Having a precise cognition of events as presented in scriptures bring us in closer estimation of its reality. And from its light we could draw the best preparation for ourselves as an additional oil for our lamps.

The discussion presented here are obviously indispensable truths for every Christians to know while there is still time. It is with hope that we would be found in readiness with lighted lamps and in proper apparel at His coming, together with those whom we shared some of our oil today.

I. The Midnight Cry

Matt. 25:5 The bridegroom was a long time in coming, and they all became drowsy and fell asleep. 6 At midnight the cry rang out, “Here’s the bridegroom! Come out to meet him!
Who will reveal and announce publicly his coming?
Amos 3:7 Surely the Sovereign Lord does nothing without revealing his plan to his servants the prophets.
What kind of Prophet?
Matt. 24:37 As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of man.
2 Pet. 2:5 If he did not spare the ancient world when he brought the flood on its ungodly people, but protected Noah, a preacher of righteousness and seven others.

The prophet is a preacher of righteousness that will announce the coming judgment of God and the way to meet our Lord Jesus. If Noah was the preacher of last days in the first world, even so, this prophet is the preacher for our generation to separate the righteous from the wicked, those who are to inherit the earth from those who are destined to suffer the wrath of God. As it was in the days of Noah, everyone are compelled to make a decision, if they follow they will be save but if not they will surely die in punishment.

In the prophecy of God’s coming or Jesus return prophet Isaiah reveals that it is concurrent with His reign in Zion (the chosen Church). There the watchmen or overseers were full of joy when they see that Jesus returns and begun reigning in the Church to establish it above every churches.

Is. 52:7 How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news, who proclaim peace who bring good tidings, who proclaim salvation, who say to Zion, “Your God reigns!”
8 Listen! Your watchmen lift up their voices, together they shout for joy. When the Lord returns to Zion they will see it with their own eyes.
Isaiah 2:2 In the last days the mountain of the Lord’s temple will be establish as chief among the mountains; it will be raised above the hills, and all nations will stream to it.

Consider the discourse of our Lord Jesus related to his coming to give rewards for his faithful servant. He comes to entrust the faithful servant with obligation to give proper food for all other servants. This faithful servant knows that Jesus comes and assigned him to his new office of responsibility where he must manage the affairs of the church as a whole, nurturing the needs of other workers of different churches to be more equip in divine service. Similarly, he becomes like a prophet or a bishop to expound the Bible truths for the edification of the whole church of God.

Luke 12:42-44 The Lord answered, “Who then is the faithful and wise manager, whom the master puts in charge of his servants to give them their food allowance at the proper time? It will be good for that servant whom the master finds doing so when he returns. I tell you the truth, he will put him in charge of all his possessions.

Hence, the coming of our Lord Jesus is more a personal experience to him, and was made known to other servants who are also watchful in waiting. These other servants will always seek to be guided of new revelations coming from God, knowing his privilege to be within the Kingdom God is at hand. However, those who are not faithful and not watchful may consider such testimonies of God’s coming dubious, and more likely to become unbelievers as was foretold to happened to them. Because He comes in the time they do not expect Him.

Luke 12:45-46 But suppose the servant says to himself, “My master is taking a long time in coming, and he then begins to beat the menservants and maidservants and to eat and drink and get drunk. The master of that servant will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour he is not aware of. He will cut him to pieces and assign him a place with the unbelievers.

These event of entrusting authority over other servants from God, is in reality quite ridiculous to other pastors or workers who knows not the mysteries of high calling of God for the prophets and overseers. Since many of them were his colleagues in the vineyard of the Lord, hardly would they readily accept it without much reproach. The same was experience by prophet Jeremiah with his co-workers or with other priests. Jer. 28.

The midnight cry will come first as a testimony of the prophet or chosen pastor that would cause much dissension among church workers and believers, not only because of the impending danger but of new revelations of truth from God that dismantle every false teachings and doctrines of many churches already long establish. Then the Pastor’s divine authority and heavenly anointing be clearly manifest to confirm such truth of revelation is from God. And the church of God will outshines all other churches in glory.

II. The Oil and Light of the Lamp
In the vision given to Prophet Zechariah there is an illustration of golden lampstand with a bowl and two olive trees beside it, wherein the seven lights of the lamp are being provided with golden oil coming from the two olive branches of these trees.
Zec. 4:2-3 He asked me, “What do you see?”I answered, I see a gold lampstand with a bowl at the top and seven lights on it, seven channels to the lights. Also there are two olive trees by it, one on the right of the bowl and the other on its left.”
Zec. 4:11-14 Then I asked the angel,”What ere these two olive trees on the right and the left of the lampstand?” Again I asked him, “What are these two olive branches beside the two gold pipes that pour golden oil?”He replied, “Do you not know what these are?”No, my lord,”I said. So he said, “These are the two who are anointed to (or two who bring oil and ) serve the Lord of all the earth.”
Rev. 11:1-4 I was given a reed like a measuring rod and was told, “Go and measure the temple of God and the altar, and count the worshipers there. But exclude the outer court; do not measure it because it has been given to the Gentiles. They will trample on the holy city for 42 months. And I will give power to my two witnesses and they will prophecy for 1,260 days, clothed in sackcloth. These are the two olive trees and the two lampstands that stand before the Lord of the earth.

These two witnesses will enforce the disciplines of our Lord Jesus in Matthew 5-7 to every followers that they may enter the narrow gate of God’s Kingdom and be with God. The austerity of discipleship teachings of carrying one’s cross in following Jesus as a measuring rod of true righteousness inside the church of God will be exhibited in full light of its glory. As it is written in prophecy of Isaiah the discipline for every followers of THE WORD OF GOD.

Is. 62:10-12 Pass through, pass through the gates! Prepare the way for the people. Build up, build up the highway! Remove the stones. Raise a banner for the nations. The LORD has made proclamation to the ends of the earth: “Say to the Daughter of Zion, “See, your Saviour comes!”See his reward is with him, and his recompense accompanies him.” They will be called the Holy people, the Redeemed of the Lord; and you will be called Sought After, the City No Longer Deserted.”

However, as forecast “many will try to enter and will not be able to”. (Lk. 13:24). Perhaps by reasons of pride and worldly involvements if not unstable in faith and deep rooted iniquities. While others were stumbled in darkness of calumnies incited by those who failed to enter. Because of sharp rebuke against their misdeeds, they in return insinuated discord and hatred. Notwithstanding the grave repercussions of their doings, they imputed these adversities against the prophets. Altogether with other Church leaders who where blind and very much in derision because of their failure to teach the true righteousness, contrive to bring false charges against the two witnesses.

Rev. 11:10 The inhabitants of the earth will gloat them and will celebrate by sending each other gifts, because these two prophets had tormented those who live on the earth.

Those who remain faithful much knowledge were bestowed, until the mysteries of the Kingdom of heaven was unfolded to them and its bounties were entrusted to them. Unlike to other Christians (outer court) outside the disciplines of the church, being feeble in Spirit cannot withstand the persecutions of the world, and therefore they were overcome.

Matt. 13:11 He replied, “The knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you, but not to them.
Matt. 13:13 This is why I speak to them in parables; Though seeing, they do not see, though hearing, they do not hear or understand.

They do not understand that other churches outside are places were the other five virgins seek to buy some oil. Wherein the discipline there cannot bring the right harvest in due season. And perhaps some of them are not real children but rather bastards. The world cannot hate them because they are more with the world than of heaven. Hence, they are more a children of the world than of God.
Jer. 8:20 The harvest is past, the summer has ended, and we are not saved.
Heb. 12:8 If you are not disciplined (and everyone undergoes discipline), then you are illegitimate children and not true sons.
Hos. 5:7 They are unfaithful to the Lord; they give birth to illegitimate children.

As it was their destiny to suffer the wrath of God, being unprepared they remain faithful to their respective churches that imprisons their soul to lack of knowledge. They are comparable to a woman who cannot give a proper birth to their children, their church is full of confusion and without peace, they stumble because of THE WORD OF GOD.

1 Pet. 2:8 and a stone that causes men to stumble and a rock that makes fall.” They stumble because they disobey the message – which is also what they were destined for.
Hos.4:6 So I will destroy your mother – my people are destroyed from lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I also reject you as my priests; because you have ignored the law of your God, I also will ignore your children.
Gal. 4:19 My dear children, for whom I am again in the pains of childbirth until Christ is formed in you…
Mic. 7:4 The best of them is like a brier, the most upright worse than a thorn hedge. The day of your watchmen has come, the day God visits you. Now is the time of your confusion.

III. The Foolish Virgins

Matt. 25:8-13 The foolish ones said to the wise, Give us some of your oil: our lamps are going out.”No they replied; there may not be enough for both of us and you. Instead, go to those who sell oil and buy some for yourselves. But while they were on their way to buy the oil, the bridegroom arrived. The virgins who were ready went in with him to the wedding banquet. And the door went in with him to the wedding banquet. And the door was shut.”Later the others also came. “Sir! Sir! They said. Open the door for us! But he replied, I tell you the truth, I don’t know you. Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day or the hour.

Their unpreparedness cause them delay to be outside of God’s grace. Their effort of preparations turned futile and their pleadings denied. Should they have known some prophecies about the coming of God somehow they might at least have prepared before the time.

Let us examine our standing in the judgments of the holy scriptures and know the needs of preparations we must have in meeting the Lord. That we may not be found not in proper apparel and be disgrace.

WHO IS COMING?

Isaiah 44:6 Thus, say’s Israel’s King and his redeemer, Yahweh Sabaoth: I am the First and the Last: there is no other God besides me (Jerusalem Bible)
Rev. 4:8 Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord God Almighty who was, and is and is to come.
Rev. 4:11 You are worthy, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power for you created all things, and by your power will they were created and have their being.
Matt. 12:8 For the Son of man is the Lord of the Sabbath.
Rev. 21:6-8 He said to me: It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To him who is thirty I will give to drink without cost from the spring of the water of life. He who overcomes will inherit all this, and I will be his God and he will be my son. But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars – their place will be in the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death.
Rev. 22: 12-16 Behold, I am coming soon! My reward is with me, and I will give to everyone according to what he has done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End. "Blessed are those who wash their robes, that they may have the right to the tree of life and may go through the gates into the city. Outside are the dogs, those who practice magic arts, the sexually immoral, the murderers, the idolaters and everyone who loves and practices falsehood. “I, Jesus, have sent my angel to give you[a] this testimony for the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the bright Morning Star.”

The Lord God Almighty, Yahweh Sabaoth, the Lord of Sabbath, Jesus Christ himself will come as a Father of every Christians that becomes victorious in the great battle of THE WORD OF GOD. He being the Lord of Sabbath will demand worship and obedience to his very words at his coming. Therefore those foolish virgins being unprepared understand not their regular worship every Sunday is an expression of revolt or war against His Kingship and His Chosen Church. They cannot ofcourse be accepted in His Kingdom since their punishment is death.

James 2:10 For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of it.
Exo. 31:15 For six days, work is to be done, but the seventh day is a Sabbath of rest, holy to the Lord. Whoever does any work on the Sabbath day must be put to death.

WHY DID HE COMES?

- He comes to save those who believes in Him.
Heb. 9:28 …he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him.

Assurance of salvation depends upon how will you response at his coming. However, the foolish virgins believes that their oil is enough only to realize at the last moment the danger of having no reserve oil in meeting their master. The same is true to many Christians confessing they are save already without making a serious study on Biblical prophecies; that is why they do not know the time of war, and was taken captive by the deceivers.

- He comes to bring justice to his faithful followers.

Luke 18:8 I tell you, he will see that they get justice and quickly. However when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?

The church of God comes bearing his name THE WORD OF GOD fulfilling the mission of giving justice to the oppress, spreads the truth of His words that every Christians be freed from the shackels of their oppressors the blind pastors and teachers of His words. Yet, who are not cowards to free themselves and be not continually deceived. Their faith to be save must be accompanied with their works, otherwise it is not reliable. But, the foolish virgins will still believes salvation is theirs because of their blindness, seeking the intercessions of blind workers not to stumble in the dark. They wait to see the Son of Man without purity of heart and without faith. And perceive not that it is Christ’s spirit that leads his church to victory against their blind leaders.

Isaiah 3:13 -14 The Lord takes his place in court: he rises to judge the people. The Lord enters into judgment against the elders and leaders of his people:”It is you who have ruined my vineyard,”
Isaiah 28:5-6 In that day the Lord Almighty will be a glorious crown, a beautiful wreath for the remnant of his people. He will be a spirit of justice to him who sits in judgment, a source of strength to those who turn back the battle at the gate.”

- He comes to bring the punishment of fire and sword.

Isaiah 66:15-17 Forsee, the Lord will come with fire and with swift chariots of doom to pour out the fury of his anger and his hot rebuke with flames of fire. For the Lord will punish the world by fire and by his sword, and the slain of the Lord shall be many. Those who worship idols that are hidden behind a tree in the garden, feasting there on pork and mouse and all forbidden meat – they will come to an evil end, say Jehovah. (Living Bible version)
Isaiah 66:16-17 For by fire will Yahweh execute judgment, and by his sword against all mankind. The victims of Yahweh will be many. As for those who sanctify themselves and purify themselves to enter the gardens, following the one in the center (procession of idolatry), who eat the flesh of pigs, reptiles, rats: their deeds and their thoughts shall end all at once – it is Yahweh who speaks. (Jerusalem Bible)

The majority of Christians were unaware that everyone must be found walking in holiness at his coming. Ever since, the time of apostle Paul the grace of God through his works are commanding us to be holy before Him. As apostle Paul’s appeal to them in his writings:

Rom. 14:9-13 For this very reason, Christ died and returned to life so that he might be the Lord of both the dead and the living. You, then why do you judge your brother? Or why do you look down on your brother? For we will all stand before God’s judgment seat. It is written: Äs surely as I live says the Lord, every knee will bow before me, every tongue will confess to God. So then each of us will give account of himself to God. Therefore let us stop passing judgment on one another. Instead, make up your mind not to put any stumbling block or obstacle in your brother’s way.
Rom. 14:20 Do not destroy the work of God for the sake of food. All food is clean, but it is wrong for a man to eat anything that causes someone else to stumble. It is better not to eat meat or drink wine or to do anything else that will cause your brothers to fall.

So as not to cause your brothers to fall let us follow strickly this teaching of not eating meat abominable to God and keep away from intrigues on issues of unclean food that results to disputes. However, those who would like to be among the foolish virgins, will reason out that all food is clean and nothing is it be dread about unclean food on judgment day. They misunderstood the permitted period of God’s grace for the Gentiles in matters of food nor they did follow the advice of apostle Paul while waiting God’s judgment day. Therefore, because of lack of oil, this coming of God is to them a punishment of fire and sword for considering pig, rats and other forbidden meat as clean in the sight of God to be eaten. Perhaps, they regard this passage of Isaiah as something already past. Notwithstanding the following verse is not yet fulfilled.

Isaiah 66:18 And I, because of their actions and their imaginations, am about to come and gather all nations and tongues, and they will come and see my glory.

- He comes to gather the consecrated ones.

Ps. 50 :3-5 Our God comes and will not be silent him, and around him a tempest rages. He summons the heaves above and the earth, that he may judge his people: “Gather to me my consecrated ones, who made a covenant with me by sacrifice.”
Ps.50:14-17 Sacrifice thank offerings to God, fulfill your vows to the Most High and call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver you, and you will honor me.” But to the wicked, God says: What right have you to recite my laws or take my covenant on your mouth?

Those who are consecrating themselves to be pure and not eating forbidden meat will gather themselves together and fulfill their vows to serve and honor the Lord with their gifts and thanksgiving. However, the foolish virgins will not join them in consecration instead become more disagreeable and hostile towards their concerns. They will not regard that the words of Isaiah is being fulfilled against them.

Isaiah 66:5 Hear the word of the Lord, you who tremble at his word: “Your brothers who hate you and exclude you because of my name (THE WORD OF GOD) have said, “Let the Lord be glorified that they may see your joy! Yet they will be put to shame.

Hence, THE WORD OF GOD comes to gather and consecrate the saints with their gifts (Exo. 23:15) in celebration of the Feast of Tabernacles in these last days. That they may not be affected of the coming plague which will strike all nations that go against His Chosen Church.

Zec. 14:16-17 Then the survivors from all the nations that have attacked Jerusalem will go up year after year to worship the King, the Lord Almighty, and to celebrate the Feast of Tabernacles. If any peoples of the earth do not go up to Jerusalem to worship the King, the Lord Almighty, they will have no rain.
Zec.14: 12-13 This is the plague with which the Lord will strike all nations that fought against Jerusalem: Their flesh will rot while they are still standing on their feet, their eyes will rot in the socket and their tongues will rot in their mouths. On that day men will be stricken by the Lord with great panic. Each man will seize the hand of another and they will attack each other. (The blast of nuclear explosion and coming widespread violence.)

IV. The Wise Virgins.

- They will leave the blind guides.

Matt. 15:13-14 He replied, Every plant that my heavenly Father has not planted will be pulled up by the roots. Leave them, they are blind guides. If a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into a pit.

Those Church workers who promotes Sunday worship than Saturday (Sabbath day) are worshiping in vain, because it is but rules taught by men and tradition.

Matt. 15:6-9 Thus you nullify the word of God for the sake of your tradition. You hypocrite! Isaiah was right when he prophesied about you. “These people honor me with their lips but their hearts are far from me. They worship me in vain: their teachings are but rules taught by men.”

- They bring others out of the pit.

Matt. 12:11-12 He said to them,”If any of you has a sheep and it falls into a pit, on the Sabbath, will you not take hold of it and lift it out? How much more valuable is a man than a sheep. Therefore it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath.”
Inviting others for Sabbath day worship and Bible Study, consecrating ourselves for the Lord and honoring this day holy is to bring others out of the pit.

- They bear fruits of the Holy Spirit.

Matt. 7:19-20 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire, thus, by their fruit you will recognize them.
Gal. 5:22-23 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self control. Against such things there is no law. Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the sinful nature.

- They help and share food and clothings and inviting their brothers in their home.

Matt.25:35 For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat. I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in. I needed clothes and clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.
Matt.25:40 The King will reply I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did it for me.

- They will follow his prophets

Matt. 13:46 When he found one great value, he went away and sold everything he had and bought it.
Matt. 10:41 Anyone who receives a prophet because he is a prophet will receive a prophets rewards…

Remember prophet Elisha, he is always following prophet Elijah before he was given an authority and power from God. The same is true to Jesus disciples, they were given an authority to judge the whole Israel.

- They come to His (Chosen Church) THE WORD OF GOD

Isaiah 2:2-3 In the last days the mountain of the Lord’s temple will be established as chief among the mountains; it will be raised above the hills, and all nations will stream to it. Many peoples will come and say, Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob. He will teach us his ways, so that we may walk in his paths. The law will go out from Zion, the word of the Lord from Jerusalem. (The dwelling place of His Divine presence)

- They are servants of the Lord.

Mal. 3:14-18 “You have said, Ït is futile to serve the God. What did we gain in carrying out his requirements and going about like mourners before the Lord Almighty? But now we call the arrogant blessed. Certainly the evil doers prosper, and even those who challenge God escape.” Then those who feared the Lord talked with each other, and the Lord listened and heard. A scroll of rememberance was written in his presence concerning those who feared the Lord and honored his name.
They will be mine, “says the Lord Almighty, in the day when I make up me treasured possession. I will spare them, just as in compassion a man spares his own son who serves him . And you will again see the distinction between the righteous and the wicked, between those who serve God and those who do not.

The wise virgins knows that they must be found in service as soldiers of THE WORD OF GOD, since those who will not be servants will be numbered with the wicked or be regarded as blind knowing not where to go to meet our Lord. Should they have known the way, they would atleast be helping in gathering.

Matt. 12:30 He who is not with me is against me, and he who does not gather with me scatters.

- They are followers of Truth.

2 Cor. 18:8 For we cannot do anything against truth, but only for the truth.
The wise knows they must be advocates and defender of truth. Should they become advocates of false they are deceivers themselves and commits a sin of idolatry. Thus, those servants who promotes Sunday and remaining faithful to their church are committing a sin of idolatry, honoring the church against truth.

V. The Glorious Meeting

Prov. 4: 18-19 The path of the righteous is like the first gleam of dawn, shining ever brighter till the full light of day. But the way of the wicked is like deep darkness: they do not know what makes them stumble.
Isaiah 60:1-2 Arise, shine for your light has come and the glory of the Lord rises upon you. See, darkness covers the earth and thick darkness is over the peoples, but the Lord rises upon you and his glory appears over you.
Isaiah 62:1-2 For Zion’s sake I will not keep silent for Jerusalem’s sake I will not remain quiet, till her righteousness shines out like the dawn, her salvation like a blazing torch.
Isaiah 54:12-14 I will make your battlements of rubies, your gates of sparking jewels and all your walls of precious stones. All your son’s will be taught by the Lord, and great will be your children’s peace. In righteousness you will be established: Tyranny will be far from you: you will have nothing to fear. Terror will be far removed it will not come near you.
Ps. 91:14 Because he loves me, “says the Lord, I will rescue him, I will protect him for he acknowledges my name.

Our Church THE WORD OF GOD, prepares you for the glorious meeting and provide you more teachings for the coming battle of Armageddon. As it is written, so it must be fulfilled.

Zec. 10:8-9 I will signal for them and gather them in. Surely I will redeem them; they will be as numerous us before. Though I scatter them among the people, yet in distant lands they will remember me. They and their children will survive and they will return.
Zec. 10:12 I will strengthen them in the Lord and in his name they will walk, declares the Lord.
Isaiah 52:2-3 Shake off your dust: rise up, sit enthroned, O Jerusalem. Free yourself from the chains on your neck O captive daughter of Zion. For this is what the Lord says: You were sold for nothing and without money you will be redeemed.
Isaiah 60:3-4 Nations will come to your light and kings to the brightness of your dawn. Lift up your eyes and look about you; All assemble and come to you; your sons come from afar, and your daughters are carried on the arm.
Isaiah 42:16 I will lead the blind by ways they have not known along unfamiliar paths I will guide them; I will turn the darkness into light before them and make the rough places smooth. These are the things I will do: I will not forsake them.
Isaiah 33:10 “Now will I arise, “says the Lord, Now will I be exalted: now will I be lifted up.
Ps. 5:21 Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes and clever in their own sight.
Isaiah 28:13-15 The Lord says: These people comes near to me with their mouth and honor me with their lips but their hearts are far from me. Their worship of me is made up only of rules taught by men. Therefore once more I will astound these people with wonder upon wonder; the wisdom of the wise will perish, the intelligence of the intelligent will vanish. Woe to those who go to great depths to hide their plans from the Lord, who do their work in darkness and think, who sees us? Who will know?
Isaiah 13:4 Listen, a noise on the mountains (churches) like that of a great multitude! Listen an uproar among the kingdoms like nations massing together! The Lord Almighty is mustering an army for war.
Isaiah 49:24-26 Can plunder be taken from the warriors, or captives rescued from the fierce? But this is what the Lord says: “Yes, captives will be taken from warriors, and plunder retrieved from the fierce. I will contend with those who contend with you, and your children I will save.I will make your oppressors eat their own flesh; they will be drunk on their own blood, as with wine. Then all mankind will know that I, the Lord , am your Savior, your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.

These scriptures will surely come to pass says the Lord Almighty and is now at hand. Every faithful followers must be skillful in using the swords of THE WORD OF GOD, he must not be coward in fighting against false church workers. Let every captives be set free and be part in the triumphant Battle of THE WORD OF GOD.
