SHADOWS OF HIS COMING

1. The world is in anguish as a WOMAN in PAINS of childbirth, “… every man with his hands on his loins, as a WOMAN IN TRAVAIL, and ALL FACES are TURNED INTO PALENESS?” [Jeremiah 30:6] The WOMAN is the world and Church is the WOMB, inflated with “struggling twins”, “And the CHILDREN STRUGGLED together within her; and she said, If it be so, why am I thus? And she went to enquire of the LORD. And the LORD said unto her, TWO NATIONS are in thy womb, and TWO MANNER of PEOPLE shall be separated from thy bowels …” [Genesis 25:22-23] Rebecca, unsettled by altercations of TWO NATIONS in her womb was a SHADOW of what lies ahead as Church prepare for the appearance of the Lord Jesus Christ and manifestation of SONS OF GOD “For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the MANIFESTATION of the SONS OF GOD. … For we know that the whole CREATION GROANETH and TRAVAILETH in PAIN together until now” [Romans 8:19-22] SHADOWS OF HIS COMING bring to fore what had been, what is and what shall be, to establish us in PRESENT TRUTH; that we should not be caught unawares “Wherefore I will not be negligent to put you always in REMEMBRANCE OF THESE THINGS, though ye know them, and be established in the PRESENT TRUTH” [2 Peter 1:12]

2. Isaiah prophesied, “Arise, shine; for thy LIGHT IS COME, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee. For, behold, the DARKNESS SHALL COVER THE EARTH, and GROSS DARKNESS the people: but the LORD shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee” [Isaiah 60:1-2] Verse one referred to the birth of Jesus and the LIGHT of His SALVATION. Verse two point to the DARKNESS that should precede His appearance to receive His BRIDE. GROSS DARKNESS signify disorder and season of unrivalled instabilities such as we have today, “… upon the earth DISTRESS of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken” [Luke 21:25-26] It is not coincidence, the world like a drunken man lurch from crisis to distress, yet KNOWLEDGE increased exponentially; it is PROPHECY fulfilled, “… there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: … even to the TIME OF THE END: many shall run to and fro, and KNOWLEDGE SHALL BE INCREASED” [Daniel 12:1-4] We now have ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE, which in reality is DEMONIC INTELLECT to bring forth a MINGLED RACE of half human, half demons, bringing us one step closer to the abyss, “And whereas thou sawest iron mixed with miry clay, they shall MINGLE THEMSELVES WITH THE SEED OF MEN: but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay’ [Daniel 2:43]

3. This generation is reminiscent of the days of Noah, “… when the SONS OF GOD came in unto the DAUGHTERS OF MEN, and they bare children to them, the same became MIGHTY MEN which were of old, MEN OF RENOWN” [Genesis 6:4] Whatever your understanding of SONS OF GOD in this context, their offspring were TARES among the WHEAT, symptomatic of contradictions of Esau and Jacob in one womb. Brethren, TARES are in full bloom in the Church, MEN OF RENOWN peddling LIES in HYPOCRISY and fulfilling PROPHECY “Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the LATTER TIMES some shall DEPART FROM THE FAITH, giving heed to SEDUCING SPIRITS, and DOCTRINES OF DEVILS; SPEAKING LIES in HYPOCRISY; having their conscience seared with a hot iron” [1 Timothy 4;1-2] Let no man deceive you, examine those who exercise spiritual rule over you by their fruits [Matthew 7:16] If all our MIGHTY MEN sowed the WORD of God, the Church should be ripe with men raised in likeness of Christ. If not and the Church be overgrown with TARES, it is because some of the men who bestride the Church as Colossus are themselves TARES and HYPOCRITES, who “… compass sea and land to MAKE ONE PROSELYTE, and when he is made, ye make him TWOFOLD more the CHILD OF HELL than yourselves” [Matthew 23:15] However, though the field be overgrown with TARES, God knows His own and has a word of comfort for you “FEAR NOT, LITTLE FLOCK; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom” [Luke 12:32]

4. Hitherto, I have spoken in TYPES and SHADOWS and now speak plainly; the appearance of the Lord Jesus Christ is at hand, “That he might present it to himself a GLORIOUS CHURCH, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and WITHOUT BLEMISH” [Ephesians 5:27] Present global dislocations and contradictions in the Church tell us His appearance is closer than ever, when we shall possess the kingdom: “Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto TEN VIRGINS, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. And FIVE of them were WISE, and FIVE were FOOLISH” [Matthew 25:1-2] TEN VIRGINS, BORN AGAIN and qualified to inherit the kingdom but FIVE were FOOLISH and FIVE, WISE; the WISE “BOUGHT” the TRUTH in season, the FOOLISH left it too late, “And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your OIL; for our lamps are gone out. But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but GO YE RATHER TO THEM THAT SELL, and BUY for yourselves” [Matthew 25:8-9] OIL was and remains the difference between WISDOM and FOOLISHNESS. What is OIL? OIL is certainty of HOPE in Christ’s imminent appearance and steadfast preparation to be made ready as His BRIDE. This is the TRUTH, BUY it and be WISE, “BUY THE TRUTH, and SELL IT NOT; also wisdom, and instruction, and understanding” [Proverbs 23:23]
