We Have One Sole Mission: TO DO THE GREATEST COMMISSION IN ALL THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD This covers well

defined, clear, and simple things to do: To Proclaim THE GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD again to all the peoples speaking different languages. To them who inhabit and dwell in different countries, nations, and nationstates. To proclaim

it to their kings and monarchs, their top leaders in the Eastern Hemisphere, (Rev. 10:11). To bring the EVERLASTING GOSPEL into these vast lands and continents, over many mountains, across oceans, and seas, from the space above, and the space below, (Mat 28:18-20; Mk 16:15-18; Lk 24:46-49). To Preach the Good News of Christ s return to establish the KINGDOM OF GOD (Mat 24:14), that will

reign and rule the whole world from the eternal capital city of Jerusalem, (Jer 3:17; Zech. 14:3-9; Obad. 21; Isa 2:2-4). To PUBLISH the Good Tidings of the end of this present evil world. And the beginning of the NEW WORLD coming (Mk 13:10; Isa 52:7), First for a thousand years. To restore the 5

original GARDEN OF EDEN planetwide. To be followed by the RESURRECTION OF THE DEAD, all rising into a worldwide PARADISE. And ALL to live for a hundred years. And then forever in the New Heaven and the New Earth. To spread to all the Universe, (Mark 13:10; Acts 3:21; Rev. 5:10; 20:4; Isa65:20; Rev 20:11-15; Rev 21:1-7). To announce the arrival of the New Order of The Ages

underthe DIVINE GOVERNMENT OF GOD RULED BY THE KING of kings and LORD of lords, (Isa 9:6-7; Zech 14:3-9; Isa 2:2-4); assisted by 144,000 immortal kings and priests, (Rev 14:1). The Kingdom of God will rule over the remnants of the Great Tribulation and the 7 Last Plagues, one-tenth of the world s population (Isa 6:11-13; 24:1-21; 26:19; Mat24:21-22; Rev 6:4, 8; 8:11; 9:11, 15),

who will be left alive, and considered worthy to be taught God s Word, God s Will, God sWay, and do God s Work, (Isa 2:1-4), and understand the deepthings of God. All working together cheerfully and joyfully to build the civilization of the Millennium under God, to shine in truth and in righteousness (Isa 26:9), and in peace (Isa 32: 1718). To TEACH the pure WORD of GOD. To announce that

theGood News of True Salvation is now being fully PREACHED and PUBLISHED among all the Gentiles. To bear the wonderful Good News that the door to the Gentiles has now been opened wide by the Captain of Salvation, the Author and Finisher of the Faith, the CHRIST of GOD, (Acts 14:27; 18:6; 28:28; Col. 1:27). To make it known to them that their true hope is in CHRIST JESUS. To be PROCLAIMED to all of

them without fail that the hope, and TIMES of the Gentiles is soon to be fulfilled, (Matt. 28:19; Rom. 11:11, 12, 13, 18; 15:16; Eph. 3:6; 2 Tim. 1:11; Luke 21:24). To finally make known, reveal, make crystal clear, that theULTIMATE FINAL DESTINY OF MAN IS TO BE BORN AGAIN vi

INTO THE GOD FAMILY AND KINGDOM, OF GOD, BORN OFTHE SPIRIT, BORN OF GOD, IMMORTAL, ONE IN GOD, (Gen1:26-27; Jn 3:21-8; Jn 17:21). To carry the WARNING, and for it to be a WITNESS to these eastern nations. To DECLARE the arrival of the PROPHESIED DISTRESS and TUMULT among the nations, (Col. 1:28; Acts 1:8). That this shall be made intense by the arrival of the

PROPHESIED worldwide DECEPTION, (Mat 24:4-5; 11:23-26). To sound the trumpet and push the button of the alarms of WAR, even as the world is swamped with RUMORS OF WARS, (Matt. 24:6-7). To WARN and TELL to the peoples of the East that the FOUR HORSEMEN of the Apocalypse now rides with ferocious vigor. Their long journeys across the millennia beginning from inside of the GARDEN

OF EDEN launched by the lying evil and wicked serpent,, and will soon climax in the destruction of the wicked one and his legions as evil and wicked, that old serpent Satan the devil and his deceived fallen angels, (Rev. 6:2 {white}; 6:4 {red}; 6:5 {black}; 6:8 {pale}. To announce the arrival of the prophesied EARTHQUAKES, of FAMINES, of PESTILENCES, and ALL THESE

shall be the BEGINNING OF SORROWS, (Matt. 24:7-8). To warn of the presence of the prophesied FALSE PROPHETS, who, from among them, the many will look to as unto gods, (Matt. 24:1, 23-28). That the work of god -21st century, is now here. Havingbeen raised by the Living Christ to commence the great beginnings of this phase of the work of god.

Because a short work will the Lord make upon the earth, and for us His loyal servants, a short time to do it in, (Rom. 9:28). vii

That we are NOT out to try to convince, NEITHER to forciblytry to convert anybody, or anyone, anywhere, anytime. Yet we must, as commanded by the Apostle and High Priest of our Profession, teach all men everywhere to repent for the remission of sins, and to do all things that Christ the Son ofGod has commanded us. (Mat 28:19-20; Lk 24:47). That we earnestly teach and actively

practice THE WAY OF PEACE, (Mat 5:9; I Tim 2:2; Jas 3:17). For the world lost knowledge of the way of peace (Rom 3:17; Isa 59:8). That we enthusiastically TEACH and faithfully PRACTICE the Way to LOVE GOD with all our heart, our soul, and our mind, with all our strength, and with all our understanding, (Matt. 22:7; Mk. 12:30, 33; Lk. 10:27). That we sincerely teach,

and continually practice THE WAY TO LOVE OUR NEIGHBOR AS WE LOVE OURSELVES, (Matt. 5:43; 19:19; 22:39; Mk. 12:31; Lk. 10:27; Rom. 13:9; Gal. 5:14; Jas. 2:8). That we diligently teach and zealously practice HOW TO HAVE TRUE SUCCESS now in this time, and in the world to come, SPIRITUAL SUCCESS with EVERLASTING LIFE, (Matt. 6:33; Mark 10:28-30; Jn. 13:17; Isa. 58:13-14).

That we seriously teach and lovingly practice turning back the hearts of the fathers to the childen, and the hearts of the chlldren to their fathers, (Mal. 4:6). That we gently, tenderly, patiently FEED and NOURISHSPIRITUALLY THE FLOCK for whom Christ The Redeemer, theLamb of GOD died, and purchased with His own blood, (John 21:15, 16, 17; Acts 20:28; I Peter 5:2). That we compassionately, mercifully,

and so kindly HEALTHE SICK, (Lk 9:1,2; 10:9), when we encounter them as we goour way to proclaim the Gospel of the Kingdom of God. viii

That we do practice pure religion undefiled before God and make visits and care for the helpless orphans, the fatherless, and the widows in their affliction, (Jas 1:27). That we point to the nations and its peoples, and families, that the Eternal Creator God has left a window open for the blessing of health and prosperity to be known if they would be glad and sing for joy, and PRAISE

THE GOD OF CREATION for all His wonderful works! That they would learn to PRAY and PRAISE the Everlasting LORD, (Ps 67:1-7; Ps 147:1-20; 148:114; 149:1-9; 150;1-6; Mat 26.30; Mark 14.26; Eph 5.19; Col3:16; Jas 5:13). All these, to FEARLESSLY and COURAGEOUSLY PREPARETHE WAY for the return of the GREAT GOD, our LORD andSAVIOR JESUS CHRIST, King of kings, and Lord of lords, (Matt 24:14; Mk

13:10; Titus 2:13; Rev. 17:14; 19:16). THIS IS THE VISION THAT THE LORD JESUS CHRIST INSPIRES FOR THE WORK OF GOD 21ST CENTURY TO DO IN THE ENTIRE EASTERN HEMISPHERE. (Written on a Mabuhay magazine page in PAL PR310 Flight Manila to Hong Kong, Seat 37K 1 February 2007, 6 8 PM Wednesday). JMC ix

Golden Scroll Series XXXXIII GO, OVERCOME AND DO YOUR PART IN GOD S WORK! P R E F A C E Who will show you how the Mind of God works? Can man by taking a space ship into outer space seehow the Divine Mind operates? By the imagination ofhuman beings that built those awesome modes oftransport beyond the atmosphere of

this little planetEarth, and landing on the moon inside of a speciallydesigned space suit with a built-in life support system, or onto any other bigger planetary body in the solarsystem, can they claim to begin to understand how theMind of their Creator work? Can they relate to the Divine Maker who created the outer space they were forbidden to intrude prematurely into? A female astronaut

came into disgrace a few weeksback of the time of this writing, now 10th of May 2007. She went aga-ga over her inordinate love for a malefellow astronaut. Raging with jealousy, she drove andwent hundreds of miles from her home and children to 17

go scare off, and, perhaps, harm her imagined rival forthe affections of the man who may not even love her. Caught by the police, she was detained, and then theyfound out who she was. Someone spilled it to a newsreporter. When mass media, ever hungry and snoopingfor a scandal of earth-shaking magnitude, got hold ofthe scoop, the news exploded on the televisionscreens and syndicated newspapers all over

the world. She proved very human, a weak flesh and blood. Herouter space adventure, and long, rigorous training inthe secular exacting sciences, post graduate courses, and astronomy did not make her understand how theMind of God works, or how it operates for her sake, as one of God s precious creation. Her star-crossed love without the knowledge of the God of all Creation, whowilled that human

beings, including her, should not allow themselves to sink into emotional relationshipsthat will destroy them, and thereby they should learnand know how to control their mind and emotions. Her love made her blind, as Shakespeare oft quoted, observed. She failed to overcome. Her elite league of fellow astronauts were, however, there to give hersupport and counsel. Albeit, it was too late. Her act

ofself-destruct ruined her reputation into shreds andtatters. Who will help her recover and rise from thewreckage of her love-lorn life now? 18

Such is a sampling of a life reflecting the parallelpattern of the lives of tens of millions, with theirshades and variations, of others on this planet. Oflives, aptly defined and observed by one author as living lives of quiet desperation. Of vast numbers of lives without goals of real substance and meaning, confused and shattered byteachings on evolution and man s cosmic saliva origins. Of the lonelies in the crowds and multitude, deceivedinto forgetting that every man is his brother s keeper,

even in the vast throng fully engaged in the rat racetowards a place called EREHWON! It is perpetuallypursued. Ever reached after. Always grasped at. Like what seems to be a very faint flicker of life, at the endof the tunnel to the countless many. Of millions of existences, alive but without a life. Make a life! isthe vogue slogan and exhortation of well-meaningothers to others. Of lives spent in

the vain pursuit of ephemeral goals, and when they appeared to have reached their goals, did not find the enduring happiness, peace and joy they thought would be there. Beyond was emptiness andvoid. Retirement to many, at the end of their secularcareers, was the commencement of death. 19

Make a life! Or, Let me make me a life! Is now theparting word of wives separating from. or divorcing, their husbands; vice-versa. Yet, that slogan may have been derived from the directcommand of the LORD God Almighty who inhabitseternity (Isa 57:15), preserved in the Holy Scriptures: I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set

before you life and death, blessing andcursing: therefore choose life that you and your children may live, (Book of Deuteronomy 30:19). What seems a vast horizon of live and living humanityis really a staid, sterile, arid desert of forced and false appearances of insensate mortals holding selfknowledge without the TRUE GOD. Myriads of crosscurrents of contradicting, conflicting purposes andgoals, of intra-fightings intermittent quarrels of vestedinterests. It is the Me. Myself.

I. Would you comprehend God s Mind and live a life? His Mind created duality to be seen in the nature of HisWorks. 20

To teach mortals how to make the right choices, Hewould present them to men s finite mind comparisons and contrasts. To make man to qualify for the higher things that reallymatter, He bids them to receive His instructions andact accordingly in sets of two: Bind up the testimony. Seal the law among mydisciples, (Isa 8:16). He will magnify the law, and make it honorable, (Isa42:21).

To enable you to qualify for the reward of the crown oflife with honor and glory, along with the gift ofsalvation, He revealed: And he that overcometh, and keepeth My Works untothe end, to him will I give power over the nations andI will give him the morning star, (Rev 2:26-29). This Golden Scroll Series XXXXIII may be the only oneof its kind circulating in

the Eastern Hemisphere today. When it reaches you by one way or the other, treasureit. Read it slowly and prayerfully. It was designed by the One who willed it to be spread on this other half of 21

the planet Earth to bless the minds and hearts, andconsequently, the lives and well-being of them who will do so. Jesus Martinez Cardona Written in the cities Modern 21st Century AsiaSpringtime, May 2007 22

therefore, willing to do your part in God s Work for the rest of your life? Are you ready to accept the duality of your mission in your personal life, and in the Work of God? Do you believe that at the end of your journey, and having at that point accomplished your dual task, a crown of honour and glory

is waiting for you? If you do, then, GO, overcome till the end of the days, and joyfully, and zealously do your task, your appointed role in The Great Work of God! 24

Part I WHAT ARE YOU TO OVERCOME? Hebrews 12 reveals the answer: 1. Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before

us, The Captain of Salvation who drafted you, and made you a soldier in the mightiest Spiritual Army of the Lord, is quite aware that you are but dust. That you are weak. That you are but flesh, and blood. That you are mortal. That you are finite. The Word, who was with God in the beginning, and

was God, and is God, (Jn 1:1), who made the worlds and the earth, and placed man on this same earth, knows all your weaknesses, alongside your strengths. He is quite aware, therefore, how easily you can be overcome and taken over. Twenty-four hours a day non-stop, you have an unkillable enemy. An invisible non-sleeping adversary, whose main

goal is to destroy the human race. To shatter and divide the human family. 25

To ruin every human individual. To lay waste and confuse the priceless minds of every man, woman, and child on earth. That means YOU. Satan the devil, and his legions of demons and wicked spirits. operates from a headquarters. Is it at subterranean levels?, (Rev. 9:11, king of the angels: Satan angel of the bottomless pit,

abaddon in the Hebrew,i apollyon; Apolluon in the Greek tongue, #63 Strong s, a destroyer). UFOS were reported coming out of the surface of the earth. Because it is but a single, yet invisible wicked spirit, it can only be in one place, at any one time. It has an invisible ultra powerful broadcasting facility set up in one specific point.

It has a headquarters broadcasting station from a vantage point on earth, or underneath the surface of this planet. Because it was not allowed to directly kill human beings directly and physically, it devised ways and means to do that indirectly, by proxy. The major world powers used this strategy, as a policy, in conducting wars against smaller

nations and countries. They borrowed the technique from Satan the devil. It has instigated wars. It has spread rumors of wars. When man go to war and fight against one another, huge casualties result. Human beings are killed by fellow human beings. Humans are killed by proxy, with effectiveness, thru other humans. They both use weapons of death when they

clash and engage each other on the battlefields of conflict. They cause destruction and injury on each other. On the arenas of battles. They maim each other either immediately or permanently. They cause mental, emotional, even spiritual injuries against each other. The scars and the memories lodge in their minds. After the fights 26

and wars are over, and long after that the damage of their human bodies from their mental psyches linger on. Many are never healed. Limbs that are severed can not be replaced by metal, plastic or wooden arms or legs. Eyes that are gouged can not be replaced by artificial marbles. When it is all over, the

leaders and captains of wars, and the peoples that allowed them to go to war realize, in hindsight, that the wars, all wars, was not necessary after all. They were violent exercises of futility. And thereafter, the veterans of wars, conflicts, and battles, are living off on meager pensions. Forgotten by the world. Living alone by themselves Ignored

by the society they fought for, and were willing to have died for. They now realize the futility of the war they had been in. And in retrospect, all the wars that man has been misled to go into. WHAT IS THIS SIN THAT SO EASILY BESET HUMAN BEINGS? Here is the surface of the earth. On

this same surface, all the human beings created in the image of God, are walking on the same planet. Eating the same kinds and types of food for millennia. Drinking the same kind of water composed of hydrogen and oxygen (H20) for thousands of years. Breathing the same kind and manner of invisible air (oxygen) throughout the rolling centuries.

Wherever human beings are congregated, initially, one religious person rises to be leader, in one way or another. This one conceives or devises an idea or a concept. This is passed on to other men to 27

believe, to follow and to do. First, on a test run. A trial balloon, so to speak. And the things sought to be done becomes many. They become myriad. They are soon a multitude. Then they get established and institutionalized. The analysis and case history of every act preceded by thought contrary,and in defiant opposition to, GOD S PERFECT LAW

OF LOVE, ends up becoming acts of actual sin. Sin, or sins, against the GOD THE FATHER, LAWGIVER AND SUPPREME GOVERNOR OF THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE! The concept of making the 1st day of the week as a Sabbath was proposed. Sooner, or later, it was adopted and accepted by the majority. This is a literal, actual transgression against

a test key commandment of God, the 4th commandment on His Holy Sabbath of rest on the 7th day, ( REMEMBER, it commands, and people forget.) So all who keep Sunday which is the 1st day of the week, have, and continue, to commit INDIVIDUAL, PERSONAL SIN every time. And to do this as one congregation of believers, becomes a COLLECTIVE

SIN, AND AN ABOMINATION AGAINST GOD, THE LORD OF THE SABBATH! This is contrary to the explanations and scholarly treatises that claim that apostles and first century Christians (first called in 7th Antioch -Acts 11:26) changed the day Sabbath to1st Day Sunday: PROPHESIED DAY AND TIME OF CHRIST S DEATH: 1.

He died in the middle of the week, the 4th day, a Wednesday by the Roman/Gregorian calendar, NOT FRIDAY, the 6th day. 28

27 He shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease , (Dan 9:27). 2. He died at 3 o clock in the afternoon, on the cross: 46 And about the ninth hour, Jesus cried with a loud voice. Saying, Eli,

Eli, lama sabachthani? That is to say, My God, my God, why has thou forsaken me? (ninth hour is 3 p.m., Roman time). 50 So Jesus when He had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost, (Mat 27: 46, 50). Therefore, Jesus died on a Wednesday, not Friday, 6th day, and at 3 p.m. (the ninth hour),

not 12 noon (the 6th hour), on Friday. 3. He remained in the grave three (3) days and three nights. It was the sign of the prophet Jonah that Jesus showed, who was in the belly of the great fish, three days and three nights, as unto the grave, (Jon1:17; 2:1-10; Mat 12:39-40; Luke 11:29-30) Then He was resurrected from

the grave, (Mat 28:6; Mk 16:6, 9; 14; John 2:22; 21:14; 24:34). THIS WAS THE ONLY SIGN HE GAVE TO DEMONSTRATE TO THAT EVIL AND ADULTEROUS GENERATION THAT HE IS THE MESSIAH. COUNT THIS YOURSELF: 1st day 3 p.m. Wednesday to 3 p.m. Thursday >>> 2nd day -3 p.m. 2nd day Thursday to 3 p.m.

Friday >>> 3rd day -3 p.m. 3rd day, Friday to 3 p.m. Saturday >>> 29

JESUS WAS RESURRECTED AT 3 P.M. SATURDAY, THE 7TH DAY SABBATH. 1ST NOT EARLY SUNRISE OF A SUNDAY (THE DAY). (NOW, THIS DAY IS CELEBRATED AS EASTER SUNRISE SERVICE!) 4. JESUS KEPT THE SABBATH AS HIS CUSTOM WAS, (Luke 4:16). 5. THE APOSTLES AND DISCIPLES WORSHIPPED IN THE TEMPLE

AFTER THE RESURRECTION AND ASCENSION OF CHRIST TO HEAVEN, (LUKE 24:53). The temple written in Greek: hieron, a sacred place; the central sanctuary itself of the Temple (at Jerusalem, or elsewhere). They did this on the Sabbath, 7th day). 5. APOSTLE PAUL INSTRUCTED THE BRETHREN TO LAY BY IN STORE ON THE FIRST DAY OF THE WEEK (SUNDAY): 1

Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I have given order to the churches of Galatia even so do ye. 2 Upon the first day of the week let every one of you lay by him in store, as God hath prospered him, that there be no gatherings when I come, (I Cor 16:2). The Apostle Paul was not convening

a congregation meeting or worship service. He was telling them that after the Sabbath, the 7th day, they were to work right after, on the next day, on the 1st day (Sunday) to lay by in store food and other useful stuff to be collected when Paul comes by. These collectibles were to be shared 30

with the other brethren that were having a hard and difficult time in Jerusalem at that time. 4. IF HE DIED ON A FRIDAY (THE 6TH DAY), 12 NOON, THEN 3 DAYS AND 3 NIGHTS AFTER THAT WOULD LOGICALLY AND MATHEMATICALLY BE 12 NOON ON A MONDAY (THE 2ND DAY). SO, THE BIBLE SCHOLARS AND THEOLOGIANS HAVE

DECEIVED THEMSELVES, AND CONSEQUENTLY THEIR FOLLLOWERS AND READERS WHO NUMBER A BILLION PLUS, WORLDWIDE, ALL TOLD. THIS IS A WEEKLY TRAGEDY OF UNIMAGINABLE PROPORTIONS! In so many ways, and in so many other acts of actual sin committed by man or woman, they did them because they were influenced by what the around them enticed them to do.

Other men outside of themselves, in many ways or another, were literally executed, their lives taken away from them. Because the sins they have committed may have become crimes against their fellowman. Against other people s properties and possessions. And against other people s very lives, And this, they have to answer and pay for in the societies where they lived. The

laws of the land demands it. Justice has to be served. And ultimately, they sinned against God. And so all these things became sin, Spelled S I N The New Testament Scriptures defines for us the definition SIN. It is stated in seven words. (1 John 3:4): Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin

is the transgression of the law. SIN IS THE TRANSGRESSION OF THE 31

LAW. Seven words. So simple and clear. It can not be misunderstood. It can not be misconstrued. THE PENALTY FOR SABBATH BREAKING, WHICH IS SIN, IS THE TERRIBLE PENALTY OF DEATH, (Rom 6:23): For the wages of sin death but the gift God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (wages, from the Greek word: opsonion

ration for a soldier, his stipend, or pay, wages. Strong s # 3800). In the context in which it was written, the wages is a penalty, because the result is death.) That which so easily beset us is simply and clearly called SIN by the inspired word of God. The LAW is the Royal Law of Love.

It is the Divine Code. This Divine Code has TEN POINTS. These points are subdivided into two. The first subdivision has the first four points of the Ten Commandments. The second subdivision consists of the following six points. The first subdivision clarifies WHAT is the LOVE OF GOD. The next subdivision of six points defines what is the

meaning of LOVE OF NEIGHBOR, AS ONE LOVES ONE S SELF. It is estimated after a long research and analysis that thirty-five million laws had been drafted and made into formal and official laws, are all derived from the Ten Commandments. So if you really want to know what you must overcome, that are defined as sin,

it is written in the Holy Scriptures. 32

All of these are the very things that you must overcome. All these are the very source and main mover of human activity. Now therefore sin will never again be to you an amorphous, nor a nebulous concept. Word of three letters pronounced as, or called the LAW. YES, YOU MUST BE OCCUPIED IN OVERCOMING

YOUR FOUR ENEMIES: . Satan the devil, and his legions of invisible demons and wicked spirits. . The world around you and the society in which you live. . Your human nature . Your human vanity Indicated also in, I John 2: 13-16 13I write unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from

the beginning. I write unto you, young men, because ye have overcome the wicked one. I write unto you, little children, because ye have known the Father. 14I have written unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from the beginning. I have written unto you, young men, because ye are strong, and the Word of

God abideth in you, and ye have overcome the wicked one. 33

15Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is

of the world. All these four were present in the Garden of Eden. At the exact time of the temptation of Eve by the lying serpent. For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil. And

when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat, (Gen 3:5-6). 1. Satan the devil is the lying

serpent, uttering the first lie. He has used deception preceded by wrong fear against all the mortal inhabitants of the earth ever since, non-stop. This has proved to be the mother of all evils. The turning against the Creator GOD. Bringing the wars. Conflicts. Quarrels. Violence. Crime. The poverty. The famine. The hunger. The dread diseases. The curses. The misery.

The wretchedness. The endless woes. 2. Good for food lust of the flesh, gluttony, the belly first becomes men s god. Hoarding at the expense and denial of the need of others. This has engendered greed and covetousness. The denial that is deeply rooted defiance: I AM NOT MY BROTHER S KEEPER! So man have today become island to themselves; Me.

Myself. I. 34

3. Pleasant to the eyes lust of the eyes Taking pleasure in passing fancies. Vogues of fashion of the present. Inordinate delight in temporal fun. Glitter. This has engendered covetousness. This has bred rankling jealousy over what others have. Dissatisfaction and discontent over what one has already. 4. Desired to make one wise Vanity and pride

in one s own selfacquired wisdom, Self-attained knowledge. Attainments in human wisdom and secular education. Self-exaltation for attainment of rank, grant of recognition, and acquisition of the power of command, including political, and religious. In today s society, the chain of letters, titles, and degrees before and after one s name conferred by men. Authorship of books. Membership in elite clubs, exclusive

honor fraternities, and secret societies. These things are not evil, and may rightly be blessings if used properly, and humbly. Yet to the possessor, these bring vanity and pride into the persona of a mortal, an acknowledged temporary, passing human on the passageway of time. This has engendered endless competition. To rise above the corpse of others to rise to

the top. This has produced the rat race in human society. This brought all the anxieties, pressures, and stress producing all manners of psychosomatic disorders and physical ailments in 21st century man. And when it does, what could have been a blessing and good pleasure turns into a burden and a curse. The Lord Jesus Christ warned: WHICH

OF YOU BY TAKING THOUGHT CAN ADD ONE CUBIT TO HIS STATURE?, (Mat 6:27; Lk 12:25). 35

All these four enemies of yours just about totally and completely covers every aspect of life and living that needs to be overcome. YOU MUST BE FULLY OCCUPIED, FOCUSED AND UNREMITTINGLY COMMITTED TO OVERCOMING ALL FOUR OF THEM. NOT BY YOUR OWN SELF AND OWN STRENGTH BUT THRU GOD S HOLY SPIRIT IN YOU, AND WITH YOU. Because

your adversary is invisible and supernaturally powerful. Compared with you, who is but a weak, perishing earthling. You will need all the help to enable empower you to be a successful overcomer. Even as that famous world renowned 5-star general of the United States. Army, Douglas Mc Arthur said those immortal 6 words: THERE IS NO SUBSTITUTE FOR VICTORY!

It is perfectly true in spiritual overcoming. God would not accept 99.99 victory. He requires of you 100% success. The principle obtaining in the 100% accuracy required for a satellite launched into orbit into outer space is applicable, to illustrate the point. A mere 1 degree off will cause the orbit to fail. Its trajectory

wrong by a milli-degree will cause it to miss its target. THE STAKES ARE THE HIGHEST. THERE ARE NO HALFWAYS WITH WHAT THE ETERNAL CREATOR GOD HAS PLANNED FOR MAN TO BE. THE MAN MUST MATCH AND BE EQUAL TO THE REAL SPIRITUAL PURPOSE AND 36

ULTIMATE DESTINY OF EACH AND EVERY MAN GOD HAS CREATED AND MADE. FOR HE WAS MADE TO ATTAIN TO BECOMING A KING! AN IMMORTAL SON OF GOD IN THE GOD FAMILY. A DIVINE MEMBER IN THE KINGDOM OF GOD. HE COULD NOT BE AN IOTA LESS. HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE? Most could not

comprehend how is it possible to achieve 100% total victory. Even the most fervent, most zealous believer and practitioner make mistakes. That no one is really perfect. One is only, truly, human. THAT IS THE POINT. And that has not been fully grasped. A man of true believing faith is just like you. Flesh and blood.

As the true disciples and apostles were (Acts 14:15, Jas 5:17). JESUS CHRIST IS OUR EXAMPLE For we have not a High Priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities, but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin, (Heb 4:15). So one can sin. But not

praticing sin. Not habitually. Not premeditatedly. Not defiantly. Not disobediently. Not rebelliously. Not sneeringly. And when one sins, the 100% score is no longer valid then? 37

WHAT IS THE ANSWER? This is the exact situation that has confounded and perplexed so many. Read the answer: 1 THERE IS THEREFORE NOW NO CONDEMNATION TO THEM WHICH ARE IN CHRIST JESUS, WHO WALK NOT AFTER THE FLESH, BUT AFTER THE SPIRIT, 2 FOR THE LAW OF THE SPIRIT OF LIFE IN

CHRIST JESUS HATH MADE ME FREE FROM THE LAW OF SIN AND DEATH, (Rom 8:1-2). Without God s Holy Spirit in you in the past, you were just keeping scores in your determined steps to be good, and perfect. You were carnal. You were materialistic. You were secular. You were not living under the loving grace of God. Your

life was directed by the counsel of equally carnal and secular minded individuals, however wise and holy their words seemed to be. And when you failed, you felt you had blown it. You were always back on square 1. And you have to begin all over again. On a fresh start and a clean slate. You may have had the

right heart. But not the right understanding of what it was all about. HERE IS THE DIFFERENCE: A sin-forgiven, Spirit-begotten son of God in this life, in flesh-andblood, walks in the Spirit. He does not keep scores anymore. He 38

lives inside of God s Law of Love, not living in a box, but in continuing, unbroken flow of Spirit-filled life. There is no spiritual discontinuity to those who live under the loving, merciful grace of God, and who walk INSIDE of God s Law of Love and perfect liberty, (Ps 1:2; 119:1). WHENEVER AND WHEREEVER HE UNINTENTIONALLY, OR

INTENTIONALLY, SINS, OR TRANSGRESSES THE LAW IN ANY ONE POINT, HE REPENTS, HE PLEADS FOR FORGIVENESS. HE PLEADS FOR CLEANSING. HE PRAYS FOR MERCY. AND SO HE IS NOT CONDEMNED. AND IS FORGIVEN. EVER WHITE AS SNOW AS WHEN HE ROSE FROM THE WATERY GRAVE OF BAPTISM ON DAY 1 OF HIS FORGIVEN LIFE. 100% MEANS

RIGHT ATTITUDE. OF DEEP REPENTANCE WITH GODLY SORROW. OF BEING CONTRITE WHENEVER ONE FALLS AND RISES, NOT BY HIS STRENGTH, BUT BY GOD S, THRU THE HOLY SPIRIT. AND ONCE FORGIVEN, HE IS NOT LADEN WITH A SENSE OF GUILT. HIS SINS NO LONGER EXIST IN GOD S PERFECT MEMORY FOR THEY ARE ERASED FOREVER. IN BUILDING YOUR SPIRITUAL HOUSE:

6 Then he answered and spake unti me saying: This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit, saith the LORD of hosts, (Zech 4:6). 39

TO this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit and trembleth at My word, (Isa 66:2). 9 Now I rejoice, not that ye were made sorry, but that ye sorrowed to repentance, for ye were made sorry after a godly manner, that ye might receive damage by us in nothing.

10 For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death, (2 Cor 7:9-10). The story of King David, of the ancient nation of Israel, is an example. He schemed and murdered Uriah, his faithful and loyal army commander, so he could get to Uriah s wife. He committed

a heinous and grievous crime, and sinned against the LORD, his Creator God. Yet when Nathan, God s true prophet, came to him and told him, and condemned him of his terrible sins, he did not resist. He grieved and repented in dust and ashes, (2 Sam 12:1-14). He was forgiven by God, even as he had to suffer the penalty

of his sins against the LORD. The story of his deep sorrow and godly repentance is etched forever in the Book of Psalms 51:1-19). To encourage and provide true hope to every truly repentant and forgiven sinner. David became a man after God s own heart, (Ps 89:3; 1 Sam 1314 -Acts 13:22). HOW WILL YOU THEN

OVERCOME? 1. HOW CAN YOU OVERCOME THE DEVIL?: Submit yourselves therefore to God. RESIST THE DEVIL AND HE WILL FLEE FROM YOU, (Jas 4:7). Put on the whole armour of God, (Eph 6:11, 13). 40

Satan the devil is an invisible wicked, evil spirit. He has superior supernatural powers. Originally created as an archangel, the Lucifer who was to be a light bringer fell from grace and from heaven (Luke 10:18), because the iniquity of pride and vanity was found in him, (Ezek 28:15). Now a twisted devil, his entire motivation is to destroy

the Church of God, and the human family. He uses invisible impulses. He broadcasts them embedded with twisted wrong attitudes and perverted ideas in the ether. What seems empty space is filled with sound wavelengths of bitterness, hate, anger, jealousy, and lusts. And all manner of deceptions and urgings to commit all types of evil and unrighteousness. RESIST THESE. AND

CLEAR THEM OUT OF YOUR MIND. And they will flee from you. Your peace of mind and calm will be your shield. Yet these unnatural impulses will attempt to return. Continually reject and resist such thoughts. A disciplined, strengthened mind can not be a habitation of evil spirits, and thoughts. They can not attach themselves to a clean

mind. Your earnest prayers with fervent supplications drives evil away from you. Your continual fasting and study of the holy Scriptures (Mat 17:21; Mark 9:21), reinforces you and erects a mighty spiritual wall in and about you, This rejects and rebuffs all these evil thoughts from taking hold in your mind and being, an invincible protection against evil

wicked marauders called demons. THIS IS SUCCESSFUL OVERCOMING! 2. HOW TO OVERCOME THE WORLD AROUND YOU AND THE SOCIETY IN WHICH YOU LIVE: 41

The world you live in is the world, the age. The period of humans living under the sway of Satan the devil ( doing wicked works: Col 1:21). Apostle Paul discloses this in Ephesians 2: 1 And you hath he quickened who were dead in trespasses and sins; 2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course

of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience: 3 Among whom also we had all had our conversation (behavior, conduct) in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature the children

of wrath, even as others. 5 Even when we were dead in sins . YOU ARE TO RISE ABOVE THIS, YOUR PAST LIFE, IN THE WORLD OR SOCIETY YOU WERE ONCE AN INTEGRAL PART OF. You must be willing to lose your life (in this world s system and temptations, thrills, glitter of gold or weight of mammon, celebrity and

glamour, and senseless pleasure, overweening fame and fortune): He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it, (Mat 10:39). You must learn how to strike the real balance between acquisition of money and the proper use of money, and not be drowned in the sorrows that wrong

way to acquire it have brought, and the inordinate love of money, brings. You must truly learn the correct use of money. Money can be a blessing from the Lord, and God adds no sorrow to it, (Prov 10:22). Money anwereth all things, (Eccl 10:19; it is also a defense,(Eccl 7:12), lends a sense of security, and not the oppression

of penury. Of demeaning poverty and want. 42

Christ warned against the inordinate, addictive lust and love of mammon, or money. He would want us to love to do our task and part in God s Great Work, and see our joyful willingness to use our money, or part of our money, to carry out our part in THE WORK OF GOD. 14 I have given

them thy word, and the world hath hateth them, BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT OF THE WORLD, EVEN AS I AM NOT OF THE WORLD. 15 I pray not that thou should take them out of the world but that thou shouldest keep them from evil. 16 THEY ARE NOT OF THE WORLD, even as I am not of the world.

18 As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I ALSO SENT THEM INTO THE WORLD, (John 17: 14, 15, 16 18). HUMILITY IS MOST ESSENTIAL AND RECOGNIZED BY THE HIGHEST 15 For thus saith the High and Lofty One that in-habiteth eternity, whose name is Holy: I dwell in the high and

holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the contrite ones, (Isa 57: 15). 2 For all those things hath mine hand made, and all those things have been, saith the LORD: but to this man will I look, even to him that

is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at my word, (Isa 66:2). HOW CAN YOU OVERCOME YOURSELF, YOUR HUMAN NATURE? 43

5 MORTIFY therefore your members which are upon the earth: fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry: 6 For which things sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience 7 In the which ye also walked sometime when ye lived in them. 8 But now ye also, PUT OFF ALL THESE; ANGER,

WRATH, MALICE, BLASPHEMY, FILTHY COMMUNICATIONS OUT OF YOUR MOUTH. 9 LIE NOT ONE TO ANOTHER, SEEING THAT YE HAVE PUT OFF THE OLD MAN WITH HIS DEEDS; 10 AND HAVE PUT ON THE NEW MAN, WHICH IS RENEWED IN KNOWLEDGE AFTER THE IMAGE OF HIM THAT CREATED HIM. 11 Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision, nor uncircumcision, Barbarian,

Scythian, bond, nor free, BUT CHRIST IS ALL, AND IN ALL. 12 PUT ON THEREFORE, AS THE ELECT OF GOD, HOLY, AND BELOVED, BOWELS OF MERCIES, KINDNESS, HUMBLENESS OF MIND, MEEKNESS AND LONGSUFFERING: 13 FORBEARING ONE ANOTHER, AND FORGIVING ONE ANOTHER, IF ANY MAN HAVE ANY QUARREL AGAINST ANY: EVEN AS CHRIST FORGAVE YOU. SO

ALSO DO YE. 14 AND ABOVE ALL THESE THINGS PUT ON CHARITY, WHICH IS THE BOND OF PERFECTNESS. 15 AND LET THE PEACE OF GOD RULE IN YOUR HEARTS, TO THE WHICH YE ARE CALLED IN ONE BODY, AND BE YE THANKFUL. 44

16 LET THE WORD OF CHRIST DWELL IN YOU RICHLY IN ALL WISDOM, TEACHING AND ADMONISHING ONE ANOTHER IN PSALMS, AND HYMNS, AND SPIRITUAL SONGS, SINGING WITH GRACE IN YOUR HEARTS TO THE LORD. 17 AND WHATSOEVER YE DO IN WORD OR DEED, DO ALL IN THE NAME OF THE LORD, GIVING THANKS TO GOD AND THE FATHER BY

HIM, (Col 3:5-17). WHEN YOU HAVE FORSAKEN THE WORLD, WHAT THEN? DOES THIS ALL MEAN YOU NOW LIVE BY A VOW OF POVERTY, LIKE THE SOCIETY OF JESUITS, OR THE BUDDHISTS MONKS DO? THE LORD JESUS CHRIST STRAIGTHENED THIS MISCONCEPTION FROM THE START: 27 Then answered Peter and said unto Him, Behold, WE HAVE

FORSAKEN ALL, AND FOLLOWED THEE; what shall we have therefore? { what is in it for me? }. 28 And Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of His glory, ye shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes

of Israel. 29 And every one that hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, FOR MY NAME S SAKE, SHALL RECEIVE AN HUNDREDFOLD, AND SHALL INHERIT EVERLASTING LIFE, (Mat 19:27-29). (now in this tim: mk 10:29-30; in this present time: lk 18 29-30). 45

I am come that they might have life life and have it more abundantly. (John 10:10). 3. HOW CAN YOU OVERCOME YOUR HUMAN NATURE? Originally, man was created good:

AND GOD SAW EVERYTHING THAT HE HAD MADE, AND BEHOLD, IT WAS VERY GOOD . , (Gen 1:31). So in the beginning, the first created

humans, male and female, were very good. Very good in the original Hebrew word means superlatively good, or excellent to the utmost in every aspect and way. Man was made: 13 For thou hast possessed my reins; thou hast covered me in my mother s womb. 14 I will praise thee; FOR I AM FEARFULLY AND WONDERFULLY

MADE: marvelous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well. 15 My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. 16 Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my my members were written, which in continuance were

fashioned when as yet there was none of them. 17 How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! How great is the sum of them! 18 If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I awake, I am still with thee, (Psalms 139:13-18). 46

HOW DID HUMAN NATURE ARISE IN AN INNOCENT BABY? A newly born baby, the sweetest sight on earth to behold, begins to breathe in air. Oxygen is inhaled into its lungs. And the lungs commences to pump blood into the heart and into the circulatory systems. All systems go for all the other systems in the body.

What comes then into the new baby s new mind, very virginal, so to speak? . Knowledge of all sorts. It s bodily functions are all-systems go. And blood flows into the heart. Along with these physical things, are the nonphysical impulses drawn from impulses broadcasted, or channeled, forcibly by Satan s electronic wavelengths and frequencies of very high ranges in the

ether, into the baby s mind, a ready receiver of all inputs at that point. A combined chemico-physico composition human is now suffused continually, albeit ceaselessly, with a non-physical element. They are processed, when ingested, continuously, or continually, automatically and involuntarily, by the body processes, and senses, and by the mind, included. Over time they accumulated. Precipitated

even drip by drip. Or become impressed into the mental template. Henceforth, human nature arose. The seed of the serpent is sown. And germinates in the mind and body. The knowledge of good and evil. Of truth and error. They are in the arisen, human nature. Thus, the newly born human continues to imbibe these impulses with dual presence of

good and evil. Truth and error. Facts and lies. Truths and half truths. THE NEW FORMING HUMAN MIND, is made possible 47

by the continual, even continuous, blending of the physical human brain and the non-physical spirit in man , (Job 32:8; Eccl 3:21; 12:7). Unfortunately, the resulting human nature is more evil, than good. And it becomes reinforced as such, in the process of time, in the human psyche, or the human persona, and character. They continually build up

over time, like a difficult-to-eradicate plaque, on tooth, or as in factory water boilers metal sidings. RESULT? The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it? (Jer 17:9). ANTIDOTE: The teaching by the parents, guide, or teacher/s with spiritual knowledge, or direct reading, and teaching of the Holy Scriptures, (2 Tim 3:15,16). The

spiritual power of the truths of God defends the child s growing mind. It nourishes that young mind. 6 TRAIN UP A CHILD IN THE WAY HE SHOULD GO: AND WHEN HE IS OLD, HE WILL NOT DEPART FROM IT, (Prov 22:6). An undisciplined life leads to a spoiled inner person. Emotional immaturity is the result. The

person may be filled with a load, or an overload, of head knowledge. But the inner man is rotten and weak. Personal crises comes, and the person reacts and responds like a spoiled child. Temper tantrums. Outbursts of explosive anger. An uncontrolled spirit comes out. Calm and poise totally collapses \in a fit of anger and disappointment. Reaction to correction

is vituperous hate and unbridled rebellion. And thoughts of suicide. This type of human nature is man s hidden enemy. In his 48

home. Within his family. Or in his social interaction with his fellowmen. Unfortunately, modern, contemporary man has sought and succumbed before the altar of a new confessional, a new 20th-now 21st century god: the psychiatrist s couch, where he is psychoanalyzed. For this, even the insurance companies are prepared to pay the bill/s, the cost. The

clear, simple, logical truth revealed by the very Creator of mortal human beings is contrary to all intellectual speculations, theories, hypothesis, ramblings, about human nature as having sprang and evolved thru long periods of evolution thru millions, nay, hundreds of thousands of years, and now manifested in homo sapiens, man, the wise . BALANCE, MODERATION AND TEMPERANCE ARE THE

KEYS SELF-CONTROL IS VITAL: He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty; and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city, (Prov 16:32). And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible., (I Cor

9:25). 24 And after certain days, when Felix came with his wife Drusilla, which was a Jewess, he sent for Paul, and heard him concerning the faith in Christ. 49

25 And as he reasoned of righteousness, temperance, and judgment to come, Felix trembled and answered, Go thy way for this time: when I have a convenient season, I will call for thee, (Acts 24:2425). 5 And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue, and to virtue, knowledge; 6 And to knowledge, temperance,

and to temperance, patience, and to patience, godliness. 7 And to godliness, brotherly kindness, and to brotherly kindness, charity, 8 For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren, nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ, (2Pet 1:5-8). 50

WHAT HAS GOD WISELY AND MERCIFULLY PROVIDED TO HELP YOU OVERCOME SUCCESSFULLY? The all wise and merciful Eternal Creator God has provided THE ONE AND ONLY TRUE WAY. In His Mercy, Loving kindness, and Wisdom, He provided you: 1. The Holy Word of God: The Holy Scriptures, the completecanon of 66 books, God-breathed, and they are Spirit, andthey are Life,

(Jn 6:63; Mat 4:4; Luke 4:4). 2. He has begotten you with the Holy Spirit, your earnest ofeverlasting life, and the measure of spiritual power to dothe things you are commissioned to perform and do, whichyou can not of your power neither by your own feeblestrength and finite, and limited mind, (1 Pet 1:3, 23; Eph2:1;1 Pet 3:18; Jn 6:63). 3.

He gave you the Body of Christ, with Brethren forgivenof their sins, and begotten with the Holy Spirit of God, (1Cor 10:17; 8:6; 12:13), to become your spiritual family. Yourtrue friends, (Mat 12:48:50): 48 But He answered and said unto him that told Him: Who is my mother? And who are My brethren? 49 And He stretched forth His hand toward His

disciples, and said. Behold My mother, and my brethren! 50 For whosoever shall do the will of My Father which is inheaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother. 51

4. He gave you the protection of His holy angels, tominister to you, and protect you always, (Heb 1:13 -14). 5. He gave you His converted servants to spiritually feedyou, and nourish you, (Jn 21:15, 16, 17; Acts 20:28; 1 Pet5:2). 6. He has made provision for your sufficiency in all things, primarily His boundless grace of complete forgiveness of to enable you

to travel light in your spiritual journey (Mat1:28-31; 2 Cor 3:5; 9:8), that you may abound unto everygood work. 7. He has taught you how to pray, in a way and manner thatGod will hear and listen to, and respond to, (Mat 6:9). 8. He has provided you with the whole spiritual armour of God, (Eph 6:11-18). That perfect way is a spiritual

process. That spiritualprocess has twelve spheres. Twelve distinct phases, yetone seamless whole. It is well outlined in the Work of God.21st Century s publication titled, The Twelve Spiritual Phases of True Salvation.

THE APOSTLE PETER STRONGLY ENCOURAGES YOU: 1 Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the strangers 2 Elect, according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through sanctification of the Spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: GRACE UNTO YOU, AND PEACE BE MULTIPLIED. 3 Blessed be the God and Father of our

Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. 4 TO AN INHERITANCE INCORRUPTIBLE, AND UNDEFILED, AND THAT FADETH NOT, RESERVED IN HEAVEN FOR YOU, 5 WHO ARE KEPT BY THE POWER OF GOD THROUGH FAITH, UNTO SALVATION READY TO BE REVEALED IN

THE LAST TIME. 6 Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations: 7 That the trial of your faith being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ:

8 Whom having not seen, ye love, in whom though now ye see Him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory: 9 Receiving the end of your faith even the salvation of your souls. 10 Of which salvation the prophets have inquired and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that should come unto you:

11 Searching what, or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them did signify when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow. 53

12 Unto whom it was revealed that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto with the Holy Spirit sent down from heaven; WHICH THINGS ANGELS DESIRE TO LOOK INTO. 13 Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and

HOPE TO THE END FOR THE GRACE that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ; 14 As obedient children, NOT FASHIONING YOURSELVES ACCORDING TO THE FORMER LUSTS IN YOUR IGNORANCE: 15 But as HE which hath called you is HOLY, SO BE HOLY IN ALL MANNER OF CONVERSATION. 16 Because it is written, BE YE

HOLY, FOR I AM HOLY. 17 And if ye call on the Father without respect of persons judgeth according to every man s work, pass the time of your sojourning here in fear: 18 Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things as silver and gold from your vain conversation received by tradition for your fathers; 19

But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot: 20 Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last days for you, 21 Who by Him do believe in God, and raised Him from the dead. And gave Him glory; that your faith and hope might

be in God. 22 Seeing you have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that you LOVE ONE ANOTHER WITH A PURE HEART FERVENTLY: 23 Being born again {BEGOTTEN, Strong s # 313 Gk: anagennao beget, bear, again}, not of corruptible seed, but 54

incorruptible, by the WORD OF GOD, WHICH LIVETH, AND ABIDETH FOREVER. 24 For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away: 25 But the word of the Lord endureth forever. AND THIS IS THE WORD WHICH BY THE GOSPEL IS PREACHED UNTO

YOU. 2:1 Wherefore laying aside all malice, and all guile, and hypocrisies, and envies, and all evil speakings. 2 AS NEWBORN BABES, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby. 3 If so ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious. 4 To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men,

but chosen of God, and precious, 5 YE ALSO, AS LIVELY STONES, ARE BUILT UP A SPIRITUAL HOUSE, A HOLY PRIESTHOOD, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ, 6 Wherefore also it is contained in the Scripture, BEHOLD I LAY IN ZION A CHIEF CORNERSTONE, ELECT, PRECIOUS, AND HE THAT BELIEVETH ON HIM SHALL NOT BE

CONFOUNDED. 7 Unto you therefore which believe He is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner. 8 And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offense, even them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were .appointed. 9 But YE ARE

A CHOSEN GENERATION, A ROYAL PRIESTHOOD, A PECULIAR PEOPLE, that ye should show forth the praises of Him who hath CALLED YOU OUT of darkness INTO HIS MARVELLOUS LGHT. 55

10 Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy. 11. DEARLY BELOVED, I BESEECH YOU AS STRANGERS AND PILGRIMS, ABSTAIN FROM FLESHY LUSTS WHICH WAR AGAINST THE SOUL; 12 Having your conversation {conduct, Gk: anastrophe Strong s # 391 behavior},

honest among the Gentiles: that whereas they speak against you as evildoers, they may by your good works, which they shall behold, glorify God in the day of visitation. 13 Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord s sake: whether it to the king, as supreme; 14 Or unto governors, as unto them that are sent by him

for punishment of evildoers and for the praise of them that do well. 15 For so is the will of God, that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men. 16 As free< and not using your liberty for a cloak of maliciousness< but as the servants of God. 17 HONOUR ALL MEN. LOVE THE

BROTHERHOOD. FEAR GOD. HONOUR THE KING, (I Peter 1:1-25; 2:1-17). BUILD YOUR SPIRITUAL HOUSE ON A FOUNDATION OF ROCK 24 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine and doeth them will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: 25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and

beat upon that house: and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock, (Mat 7:24-25). 56

This is the wisdom of the ages imparted from the Spiritual Rock of Ancient Israel, who was Christ, (1 Cor 10:4). REWARDS TO HIM THAT OVERCOMES TRIUMPHANTLY: 1). EAT OF THE TREE OF LIFE - To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, (Rev 2:7). 2). NOT HURT

OF THE SECOND DEATH - He that ovrcometh shall not be hurt of the second death, (Rev 2:11). 3). EAT OF THE HIDDEN MANNA AND GIVEN A WHITE STONE - To him that overcometh will give to eat of the hidden manna, and I will give him a white stone, and in the stone, a new name written, which no

man knoweth saving he that receiveth it, (Rev 2:17). 4). RULERSHIP WITH POWER OVER THE NATIONS -26 And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations: 27 And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter they shall

be broken to shivers: even asI received of My Father. 28 And I will give him the morning star, (Rev 2:26-28). 5). CLOTHED IN WHITE RAIMENT -He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the Book of Life, but I will confess his name before

My Father, and before His angels, (Rev 3:5). 57

6). A PILLAR IN GOD S TEMPLE - Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of My God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of My God, and the name of the City of My God, which is the New Jerusalem, which cometh down out of Heaven from

My God: and I will write upon him My NEW NAME, (Rev 3:12). 7). SIT WITH CHRIST- To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in My Throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with My Father in His Throne, (Rev 3:21). 58

Part II DO YOUR APPOINTED PART AND TASK IN GOD S GREAT WORK The First Part being done, and continually being accomplished, you will have qualified to go occupy the broader area of true occupation: TO DO YOUR APPOINTED TASK IN DOING YOUR PART, YOUR ROLE IN THE GREAT WORK OF GOD. 28 Then

said they unto Him, WHAT SHALL WE DO,THAT WE MIGHT WORK THE WORKS OF GOD? 29 JESUS ANSWERED AND SAID UNTO THEM, THIS IS THE WORK OF GOD, THAT YE BELIEVE ON HIM WHOM HE HATH SENT. 30 They said therefore unto Him, WHAT SIGN SHOWEST THOU THEN, THAT WE MAY SEE, AND BELIEVE THEE? WHAT

DOEST THOU WORK? 32 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven, but my Father giveth you the TRUE BREAD FROM HEAVEN. 33 For the bread of God is He which cometh down from heaven and giveth life unto the world. 59

34 They said unto Him, LORD, EVERMORE GIVE US THIS BREAD. 35 And Jesus said unto them, I AM THE BREAD OF LIFE: HE THAT COMETH TO ME SHALL NEVER HUNGER; AND HE THAT BELIEVETH ON ME SHALL NEVER THIRST, (Jn 6:2935). HOW CAN YOU DO YOUR APPOINTED TASK IN GOD S DIVINE WORK? God often

directs us to do TWIN THINGS. It is always DUAL.. In His own way of making us perfect He has designed for us to do two things. (AS THE TEN COMMANDMENTS, divided into TWO: Love of God, and Love of Neighbor, as one s self). Again in this case after He tells us to overcome, He is indirectly saying, IT IS

NOT ENOUGH. In these instructions He tells us to also DO the Work of God. In many of the previous Golden Scroll Series, the WORKOF GOD has been clearly presented and defined. We can not make a mistake in what is really, The Work of God. The Work of God was started before the world was. It started

before the foundation of the world. And God s Work will carry on for all eternity. It was carried out and carries on in phases and stages. In the big picture, the central point of His Work is the spiritual creation of perfected sons of God. Born again, Spirit born into the God Family and Kingdom of God, (Gen 1:26; Jn

17:21; Rom 8:16-18). These be they that are the FIRSTFRUITS, who, if they will overcome and do the Work of God ,will inherit the universe with Christ. That includes you. 60

Romans 8:14-19: 14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. 15For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. 16The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we

are the children of God: 17And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together. 18For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in

us. 19For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God. To accomplish this most awesome, glorious plan and purpose of the Holy God our Father, He directed the Lord Jesus Christ to build His Church. And He named it after His Holy Name (Jn 17:11): CHURCH OF GOD. This

is confirmed in 12 places in the New Testament Scriptures, (Acts 20:28; 1 Cor 1:2; 10:32; 11:22; 15:9; 2 Cor 1.1; Gal 1:13; Col 3:15; 1 Tim 3:5; 3:15; 1 Thess 2.14; 2 Thess 1:4). Matthew 16:18: 61

And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. It is HIS SPIRITUAL BODY of which HE IS THE HEAD. It is the very body into which those whom God the Father called, and Christ has chosen,

will be fed. First with spiritual milk, and spiritual meat till they become mature and attain the fullness of the stature of Christ. God gave these offices of service, to bring supplementary help in bringing believer s joy to fulfillment in the Church of God: Ephesians 4:11-15: 11And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets;

and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; 12For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: 13Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the

stature of the fullness of Christ: 14That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; 15But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is

the head, even Christ. 62

THIS PHASE OF BUILDING PERFECT SPIRITUAL CHARACTER IS COUPLED WITH A MANDATE FROM THE LORD JESUS CHRIST TO HIS FOLLOWERS AND DISCIPLES, HIS SPIRTUAL ARMY IN THE LAST OF THE LAST DAYS: 18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, ALL POWER is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 19 GO ye

therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of then Son, and of the Holy Spirit. 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and lo, I AM with you always , even to the end of the world. (Mat 28:18-20). 15 And He said unto

them, GO ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature, 16 He that believeth, and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth shall be damned. 17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In My Name shall cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;

18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover, (Mark 16:15-18). 44 And He said unto them, These are the words which I speak unto you, while yet I was with you, that all things must be fulfilled

63

which was written in the law of Moses, and in the preophets, and in the psalms, concerning Me. 45 Then opened He their understanding, that they might understand the Scriptures. 46 And He said unto them, THUS it is written, and thus it behooved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third

day: 47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in His Name among all nations, beginning in Jerusalem. 48 And ye are witnesses of these things. 49 And, behold, I send the promise of My Father upon you, but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with

power from on High. 50 And He led them out as far as to Bethany, and He lifted up His Hands and blessed them. 51 And it came to pass, while He blessed them, He was parted from them and carried up into Heaven. 52 And they worshipped Him, and returned to Jerusalem with

great joy: 53 And were continually in the temple, praising and blessing God. Amen,: (Luke 24:44-53). 64

1 The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began to do and teach, 2 Until the day in which He was taken up after that He through the Holy Spirit had given commandments unto the apostles whom He had chosen: 3 To whom also He showed Himself alive after His

passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the Kingdom of God: 4 And being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which saith He, ye have heard of Me. 5 For John truly baptized with

water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days hence. 8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Spirit is come upon you: AND YE SHALL BE WITNESSES UNTO ME both in Jerusalem, and all Judea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth, (Acts 1:1-5, 8).

14 And this gospel of the kingdom, shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations, and then shall the end come, (Mat 24:14). 10 And this gospel must first be published among all nations, (Mark 13:10). 65

17 For the Scripture saith unto Pharaoh, Even for this same purpose have I raised thee up, that I might show my power in thee, and that my name might be declared throughout all the earth, (Rom 9:17). 28 For He will finish the work, and cut it short in righteousness: because a short work will the

LORD make upon the earth, (Rom 9:28). THE APOSTLE PAUL KNEW WHAT HE WENT THROUGH Towards the conclusion of the life of this mighty servant of the Lord, who was used to write more books and letters of scripture than those before him, and his contemporaries, he wrote this for us: 1 Paul, a

servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God By whom we have received grace and apostleship, for obedience to the faith among all nations, for His Name, revealed that: -He kept overcoming 23 And this I do for the gospel s sake, that I might be partaker with you. 24

Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run that ye may obtain. 25 And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do to obtain a corruptible crown, but we an incorruptible. 66

29 I therefore so run, not as uncertainly, so fight I as, not as someone that beateth the air 30 BUT I KEEP UNDER MY BODY, AND BRING IT UNTO SUBJECTION: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway, (1 Cor 9:23-27). PAUL CONFESSED THAT HE

WAS A FORMER HIGH RANKED PHARISEE (Acts 26:5; Phil 3:5). HAVING GONE THROUGH A VERY THOROUGH LEARNING PROGRAM, A COMPLETE COURSE, TO BECOMING ONE, HE, BY ANALOGY, CAME TO REALIZE THAT THE BELIEVERS AND PRACTITIONERS OF THE WAY ARE UNDERGOING A SIMILAR PROCESS, IN PRINCIPLE, OF EDUCATION, GOD S WAY: 6 For now I am ready to be offered,

and the time of my departure is at hand. 7 I have fought a good fight, I HAVE FINISHED MY COURSE, I HAVE KEPT THE FAITH. 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, (2 Tim 6-8). 12 Truly the signs of an apostle were wrought among you in all patience, in signs, and wonders, and mighty deeds, (2 Cor 12:12). 67

23 Are they ministers of Christ? (I speak to you as a fool,) I am more; in labours more abundant, in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequent, in deaths oft, (2 Cor 11:23). I HAVE KEPT THE FAITH is a testimony by the apostle Paul that he did the two: HE OVERCAME, and DID THE TASK AND

ROLE HE WAS APPOINTED TO DO IN THE GREAT WORK OF GOD! 68

PART III WHAT THEN IS YOUR SPECIFIC TASK TO DO IN THIS PHASE OF THE GREAT WORK OF GOD? 1 For the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder, which went out early in the morning to hire laborers into his vineyard. 2 And when he had agreed

with the laborers for a penny a day, he sent them into his vineyard. 3 And he went out about the third hour, and saw others standing idle in the market place. 4 And said unto them: Go ye also into the vineyard, and whatsoever is right I will give you. And they went their way.

5 Again he went out about the sixth and ninth hour, and did likewise. 6 And about the eleventh hour he went out, and found others standing idle, and said unto them, Why stand ye here all the day idle? 69

7 They say unto him, Because no man hath hired us. He said unto them, Go ye also into the vineyard; and whatsoever is right, that shall ye receive. 8 So when even was come, the lord of the vineyard saith unto his steward, Call the labourers and give them their hire, beginning from the last unto

the first. 9 And when they came that were hired about the eleventh hour, they received every man a penny. 10 But when the first came, they supposed that they should have received more; and they likewise received every man a penny. 11 And when they had received it, they murmured against the goodman

of the house. 12 These last have wrought but one hour, and thou hast made them equal unto us, which hath borne the burden and heat of the day. 13 But he answered one of them, and said, Friend, I do not do wrong, didst not agree with me for a penny.? 14 Take

that thine is, and go thy way: I will give unto this last, even as unto thee. 15 Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with mine own? Is thine eye evil, because I am good? 70

16 So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few chosen, (Mat 20:1-16). THE LORD JESUS CHRIST gave THIS PARABLE, and it is all about the Kingdom of God, as it in all His parables He had spoken. He showed the broad canvas of the Work of God

throughout all human history. He made the choosing and hiring in specific times during the last 6,000 years. First, the third hour. Second, in the sixth. Third, in the ninth hour. Fourth, the last, in eleventh hour. That is FOUR TIMES. So the FIRST WAS THE TIME FRAME of righteous Abel, Enoch, Seth. SECOND

was the time frame of Noah, who walked with God, before, and after the Great Flood. THE THIRD, IS THE TIME FRAME OF THE NATION OF ISRAEL. Under THE PATRIARCHS Abraham, his son Isaac ,and Isaac s son Jacob; and one of Jacobs s son: Joseph. Followed by Moses, Joshua, King David. The prophet Elijah, and Elisha. The

71

prophets Isaiah. Jeremiah. Ezekiel. The prophet Daniel in Babylon, with Meshech, Shadrach and Abednego. The men and women of faith listed in the book of Hebrews, chapter 11. THE FOURTH, and last, thru the last 2,000 years of the New Testament Church of God: It began with John the Baptist. Linked to the time of

the original 12 apostles, who were sent by the Lord Jesus Christ to the Lost sheep of the House of Israel {The Lost Ten Tribes, (Mat 10:5; 15:24). Then Paul, the apostle chosen by Christ whom He sent to the Gentiles. And the earliest faithful believers and practitioners of the faith once delivered to the saints

(Jude 3), that time Pentecost 31 A.D., thru 20 centuries, till the 21st century. They comprise the beginning minutes, and the ongoing moments of the eleventh hour. Then at the extreme end part of the eleventh hour, in the very last of the last days, in the final minutes of the time of the climax of human history,

are the Churches of God, the branches (that came out of the 20th century prophesied and fulfilled apostasy the 1990 s) of the VINE, the Lord Jesus Christ (Jn 15:5), who keep the Commandments of God and have the Testimony of Jesus Christ (Rev 12:17), The workers in the Work of God 21st Century are part of that very

end time team of laborers and workers, the very elect, in the VINEYARD of the GOD THE FATHER, THE HUSBANDMAN. 72

The original apostles thought the end of the age was to come in their day. The Holy Bible reveals their number: 144,000. They will be the FIRSTFRUITS. And their reward, their hire, is the same: REWARD OF A CROWN, with honor, power, and glory, with the gift of everlasting life. They will each be the

first line of kings and priests, and will reign on the earth for a thousand years, under the KING of kings, and LORD of lords, (Rev 1:5-6; 5:10; 14:1-5; 19:16; 20:4). YOU, OF THE END PART OF THE ELEVENTH HOUR, WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO IN THE VINEYARD OF THE FATHER? CAN YOU IDENTIFY YOURSELVES?

1. WE then, as WORKERS TOGETHER WITH HIM, beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain, (2 Cor 6:1). 2. Christ, built His Church: The Church of God. It is the Body, of which He is the Head, (Mat 16:18), and named it after God s Name (Jn 17:11). It is the same Body that He

will use as a spiritual Vessel to bear, to carry, and proclaim, to preach thru the written word, and to publish, thru the spoken word, the TRUE GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD,(Mat 24:14; Mk 13:10). He gave His Church (Gk. ecclesia, Strong s #1577, community of saints on earth, believers, called out ones) the authority and power to DO THE

JOB, (Mat 16:19; Mat 28:19-20; Mk 16:15-18; Lk 24:47-53; Acts 1:1-8). 73

3. To accomplish that colossal task, His Body has to perform and carry out the Task thru a DIVERSITY OF OPERATIONS, (I Cor 12:6) imbued with diverse spiritual gifts: a. For to one is given by the Spirit THE WORD OF WISDOM. b. To another THE WORD OF KNOWLEDGE. c. To another FAITH. d. To another THE GIFTS OF

HEALING. e. To another THE WORKING OF MIRACLES. f: To another PROPHECY. g. To another DISCERNING OF SPIRITS. h. To another DIVERS KIND OF TONGUES. i. To another the INTERPRETATION OF TONGUES. But ALL THESE WORKETH THAT ONE AND THE SELFSAME SPIRIT, dividing to every man severally as He will. But as the BODY IS ONE, hath MANY

MEMBERS and all the members of that ONE BODY, BEING MANY, ARE ONE BODY; SO ALSO IS CHRIST, (I Cor 12:1-12). 27 Now YE are the BODY OF CHRIST, and members in particular. 74

28 And GOD hath SET SOME in the Church, first APOSTLES, secondarily, PROPHETS, thirdly TEACHERS, after that MIRACLES, then GIFTS OF HEALINGS, HELPS, GOVERNMENTS, DIVERSITIES OF TONGUES. 29 Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Are all workers of miracles? 30 Have all the gifts of healing? Do all speak with tongues? Do

all interpret? 31 But coveth earnestly the best gifts, (1 Cor 12:27-31) And now abideth FAITH, HOPE, CHARITY (LOVE), THESE THREE, BUT THE GREATEST OF THESE IS CHARITY (LOVE), (1 Cor 13:13). Follow after charity, and desire spiritual gifts, but rather that ye may prophesy, (1 Cor 14:1). 3 But he

that PROPHESIETH speaketh unto men to edification, and exhortation, and comfort. 6 Now, brethren, If I come unto you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you, except I shall speak to you either by revelation, or by knowledge, or by prophesying, or by doctrine? (1 Cor 14:3, 6). 12 Even so ye, forasmuch as

ye are zealous of spiritual gifts, seek that ye may EXCEL TO THE EDIFYING OF THE CHURCH, (1 Cor 14:12). 75

These are the JOB DESCRIPTIONS of the 0FFICES OF SERVICE (NOT RANKS OF EXALTATION neither LORDSHIP, nor as BENEFACTORS, (Luke 22:25) and CARING (HELPERS OF THE BRETHREN S JOY, {2 Cor 1:24}, that YOU CAN DO IN the GREAT WORK OF GOD.
