THE SEVEN CHURCHES OF ASIA /REVELATION 2 - 3

CHAPTER 16 (1 of 5)

PROPHETS

-

And Moses said unto him, Enviest thou for my sake? Would God that all the Lord's people were prophets, and that the LORD would put his spirit upon them.  (Numbers 11:29)

-

Saying, touch not mine anointed and do my prophets no harm. (1 Chronicles 16:22)

-

"Touch not mine anointed and do my prophets no harm" is a warning from God to those who would harm any of God's people. Although 1 Chronicles 16:22  has significance for the people of the Nation of Israel because of the promises made to their forefathers, it has no less significance to those who are of “spiritual” Israel Christians whether they be Jew or Gentile; for true Israel are those who have had their Heart circumcised by the Holy Spirit, God’s New Birth. As true born-again Christians we are as much God's anointed as a Prophet, although not necessarily as a specific Commission all of us have a “general” commission to share the Gospel with everyone as God would lead us through His Holy Spirit.

-

For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God. (Romans 2:28-29)

-

Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stiff necked. (Deuteronomy 10:16)

-

And the Lord thy God will circumcise thine heart, and the heart of thy seed, to love the Lord thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, that thou mayest live. (Deuteronomy 30:6)

-

“Would God that all the Lord's people were prophets” (Numbers 11:29), is a call of God to His church today. It is not so much that God desires to use all of us to prophesy, as much as it is His desire that we walk in what I call "revival status;” making the effort to live the lifestyle of total obedience to His perfect will, satisfying all requirements of His desires and His alone for our behavior and life endeavors. God's desire is for all of us who make up His true church to live the consecrated life of a faithful and true Prophet, a living sacrifice, called by God to speak for Him and to live lives that prove to those who are unsaved that there is a God who loves them beyond their comprehension, and that we are living proof of this fact.

-

If when a lost soul sees us and there is no evidence of a radical difference in our conduct and endeavors to cause them to say, “There is something different about you, are you a Christian?” we are living below God's standard for our life. Jesus said of Himself in Revelation 3:14 "The faithful and true witness."  Worldliness and a false spirit of religion prevail in many churches worldwide. Unbridled worldliness and carnality, prevailing in the life of a person who claims to be a Christian, will cause many who are unsaved to critically say: "If that is what being a Christian is all about I don't want any part of it." 

-

The foolish virgins of Matthew 25:3 are those who profess to be Christians, but do not have the power and anointing of the Holy Spirit in their life, oil. The Baptism with Power through the Holy Spirit also has all nine Gifts of the Holy Spirit associated with this (Acts 1:8, and 2:4, 1 Corinthians 12:8-10), which make the Holy Spirit filled Christian a candidate for God to use use for the manifestation of any of the Gifts of the Holy Spirit as He wills (1 Corinthians 12:11) at any given point in time, to make His presence known, not only for the encouragement of the Saints but also for effectively encouraging the radical life changing born again event to occur in the Heart (spirit and soul) of lost souls; their repentance from sin to receive Jesus as Lord and Savior of their life.  Without the Holy Spirit we can never hope to fully live the standard of holiness that God requires for us, and neither can we discern what is happening on God’s invisible level what is about to happen in the near future in the visible level.

-

Through the Holy Spirit God reveals His secrets, His hidden mysteries to those who are His people, "spiritual" Israel. It is because of not having the Holy Spirit endowment with God’s Power that comes through being "Baptized with the Holy Spirit" that has caused many well meaning but misinformed preachers, to preach for centuries that we cannot live a sinless life; Jesus is not the only one written in the Bible who did concerning the Law. Every provision for living sinless is provided for God's people through and by the Holy Spirit. As Jesus said about the Holy Spirit in John 14:26: "He shall teach you ALL things."

My Facebook Timeline - www.facebook.com/samuelsiders1 - contains responses I have posted in answer to those who God has had me to share with for over seventeen years on Facebook Forums created to share the Scriptures. My activity about sharing the Word of God with Muslims, other false Cults, and with those who profess to be Christian continues; this open door that the Lord has made available to me as an Apologist/Teacher is one where worldwide opportunities are made available to all English speaking people around the world from many different countries, races, and religious beliefs.

It is WRITTEN in 1 Peter 3:15 … “But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asks you of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:" God wants us to know AND understand His Word (2 Timothy 2:15), “Study to show yourself approved unto God, a workman that needs not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” Jude 3, “Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend [Gr. agonize with fervent zeal] for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.”

A Muslim name Yusuf posted a meme claiming no one in Israel is a biological Israeli. In 1976 an Israeli name Arthur Koestler published a book called “The Thirteenth Tribe,” which Many then and still today misuse and misinterpret to make the – False – claim that Yusuf did. Having researched information many years ago about the Author of the Book, I also found an interview where the Author explained the meaning of his book “The Thirteenth Tribe.” What follows is the response I posted for Yusuf the Corrupt his Deception:

=

Yusuf E ... your Post is a Lie and Deception that you Clearly have a Poor Comprehension of. The Writer of the 13th Tribe is - totally - misinterpret - by you to make the False Claim there are no ethnic Biological Israelis who are descendants of Jacob in the Land of Israel. DNA testing was done when the 13th Tribe Book was published to prove more than 80% of those in the Land of Israel - ARE - Biological descendants of Jacob, and Your deceived heart and mind Refused to do the Research that proves this Fact. Almighty God had it Prophesied that Israelis would Return to the Land of Israel in the last days and contrary to Your deception They Have.
