Christian Ebooks

book excerpt

These are a collection of articles written under the hand of the Lord to reveal some of the mysteries of the Kingdom of God which are not usually taught in most denominational churches today. This is further showing of deep foundational truths so one can enter the highest level of the coming age of Christâ€™s rule on earth. The road to perfection, which is what God longs for, is a narrow road. Few there be that pass on it. Christ said: â€œEnter ye in at the strait [narrow] gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leads to destruction, and many there be which go in there Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leads unto life, and few there be that find itâ€ (Matthew 7:13-14). Well you say I am a born again Christian and have accepted Jesus as my Savior. Isnâ€™t that enough to get me to heaven? The answer is that what we call â€œbasic salvationâ€ is just the beginning to a real walk with God. Yes you that have saved will obtain a measure of eternal life. But beyond that are many things you must learn, which things involve a continuing salvation process that brings you into perfection; and not necessarily after you physically die. More than anything God is after a relationship with you like He had with the first humans in the Garden. There He spoke face to face with them in the cool of the night. The first humans were babies in their overall spiritual development and God had much to teach them. We who are saved are in much the same place. God has much to reveal to us and much more He would like us to become. He desires us to become Sons of God, like the first Son Jesus Christ. Together Christ and His brethren, us, form the Fatherâ€™s family that he longs for. At the last supper Christ made it clear to His disciples that they had much to learn when He was gone He would send the â€œhelperâ€, the Holy Spirit to teach them many things. He said: â€œWhen the Helper [ Gr paracletos, one called alongside to help, comforter, advocate, intercessor] comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, that the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father, He will testify about Me, and you will testify also, because you have been with Me from the beginningâ€ (John 15:26-27). â€œBut I tell you the truth, it is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Helper [paracletos] will not come to you; but if I go, I will send Him to youâ€ (John 16:7). Christ was not speaking to babes. He was speaking to disciples who had been with Him for 31/2 years; they had cast out demons, healed people and done other mighty works. But Christ said He had more to teach them, through the helper that was to come, the Holy Spirit. Christâ€™s ministry was within a 30 mile radius of His home yet he wanted the gospel to go to the end of the earth. He wanted His disciples to do greater works than He did (John 14:12). He wanted the disciples to reduplicate themselves and make disciples of all nations (Matthew 28:18-20). â€œTo whom would He teach knowledge, And to whom would He interpret the message? Those just weaned from milk? Those just taken from the breast? â€œFor He says, Order on order, order on order, Line on line, line on line, A little here, a little there.â€™ â€Indeed, He will speak to this people Through stammering lips and a foreign tongue,â€ (Isaiah 28:9-11). This Book is one more line upon line, precept on precept so we can all reach perfection in the Lord as He desires.
