Are you in your Individual
Capacity, a True Philadelphian Church; The Faithful Church of Christ that gets
Raptured into Heaven?
It is very important to aspire
to be the True Philadelphian Church, in your individual capacity; for it/they
(The Philadelphian Church) is/are the Faithful Church that gets Raptured into
Heaven.
The Church essentially is not
a building, but a collection of believers; each believer in Christ being a
Church in their own individual capacity, even as they fellowship together as a body
of believers in Christ Jesus. Therefore, even the Philadelphian Church is not a
building or a sign post written on a building or on a signage; it is thus also
a Church in an Individuals’ capacity, and when they gather together to
fellowship then it becomes a communion of believers (Philadelphians).
Therefore, the True Mark of the Philadelphian Church is her Faithfulness and
Truthfulness before The LORD. This has got nothing to do with Denomination or a
Physical “Name” of a “Church”.
In the discussion below, we
are going to discuss some very key points regarding how to Prepare to enter
into Heaven (In other words, the below is: How The Philadelphian Church
Prepares to enter into Heaven):
1-The
First point to note is that for One to enter into Heaven, they Must be Born
Again; being Born Again. This entails being Renewed in the spirit
through The Holy Spirit, but it also entails a physical Renewal (symbolism) through
Water (baptism).
John 3: 1-8 ‘“There
was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. This man came
to Jesus by night and said to Him, “Rabbi, we know that You are a teacher come
from God; for no one can do these signs that You do unless God is with him.”
Jesus answered and said to him, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is
born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.” Nicodemus said to Him, “How can
a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother’s womb
and be born?” Jesus answered, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born
of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. That which is born
of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Do not
marvel that I said to you, ‘You must be born again.’ The wind blows where it
wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and
where it goes. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit.”’
2-The
Second Point to note is that we receive Salvation through The Blood of The LORD
Jesus Christ. In other words, there is no Salvation without The Blood
of The LORD Jesus Christ.
The Blood Sacrifice of The
LORD Jesus Christ is an offer at The Cross of Calvary; so those who Believe in
Him, Accept Him, and Receive Him as their LORD, Master and Saviour shall have
indeed accepted the Offer and thus Received Salvation. Remember, Salvation is
by Choice and Freewill; ‘“Choose Yee This Day, Whom You Shall Serve.”’
John 3: 16-19 ‘“For
God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever
believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not
send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through
Him might be saved. “He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does
not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of
the only begotten Son of God. And this is the condemnation, that the light has
come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their
deeds were evil.”’
3-The
Third Point to note is that those who want to enter into Heaven must enter
through The Narrow Gate and The Narrow Road.
It is Narrow because there is
Purification, Cleansing and Refining therein; which many who are on the Broad
Road do not want to partake of.
Mathew 7: 13-14 ‘“Enter
by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to
destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and
difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.”’
4-The
Fourth point to note is that we need to embrace Repentance for the forgiveness
of our sins through The Blood of The LORD Jesus Christ and walk in
Holiness, Righteousness, Truth and Complete Surrender to The LORD Jesus Christ.
-Repentance means to humble
oneself and to go before The LORD in Prayer and to Plead for Mercy before The
LORD, for the forgiveness of Sins.
-Righteousness means being
Right before The LORD, by following the Ways and the Requirements of The LORD.
-Holiness means separating
oneself for the glory and the honour of The LORD.
Acts 17: 30-31 ‘“Truly,
these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to
repent, because He has appointed a day on which He will judge the world in
righteousness by the Man whom He has ordained. He has given assurance of this
to all by raising Him from the dead.”’
5-The
Fifth point to note is that The Lampstand of God is The Glory of The LORD; The
Light of The LORD, The Presence of The LORD upon the Faithful Sons and
Daughters of The LORD.
Whoever fails to Return to The
LORD in Repentance for the forgiveness of their sins will have their Lampstand
taken away from them.
Meaning that Repentance for
the forgiveness of our sins (at our individual capacity) and thereby walking in
Righteousness, Holiness, Truth and Complete Surrender to The LORD Jesus Christ
is The Key to endevour to continue to Remain and Partake of The Presence of The
LORD, The Glory of God, The Light of The LORD.
Revelation 2: 4-5 ‘“Nevertheless
I have this against you, that you have left your first love. Remember therefore
from where you have fallen; repent and do the first works, or else I will come
to you quickly and remove your lampstand from its place—unless you repent.”’
6-The
Sixth point to note is that Only those who have the Garment of Light will be
Raptured into Heaven.
This Garment of Light shields
us from nakedness; for without it, one is engulfed in a spiritual darkness and
nakedness. Adam and Eve were shamefully exposed when they fell into sin in the
Garden of Eden; and they then became naked, as The Garment of Light was taken
away from them.
This means that The Day of The
Rapture is The Day of Light; When The LORD will Rapture into Heaven those who
will have The Garment of Light Upon them: These will be the Faithful Sons and
Daughters of The LORD.
Revelation 16: 15 ‘“Behold,
I am coming as a thief. Blessed is he who watches, and keeps his garments, lest
he walk naked and they see his shame.”’
7-The
Seventh point to note is that, those who have the Garment of Light (The Garment
of Righteousness) will attend the Celebration of The Garment: The
Wedding (Marriage) Supper of the Lamb in Heaven; for they shall have been
Raptured into Heaven.
Revelation 19: 6-9 ‘“And
I heard, as it were, the voice of a great multitude, as the sound of many
waters and as the sound of mighty thunderings, saying, “Alleluia! For The LORD
God Omnipotent reigns! Let us be glad and rejoice and give Him glory, for the
marriage of the Lamb has come, and His wife has made herself ready.” And to her
it was granted to be arrayed in fine linen, clean and bright, for the fine
linen is the righteous acts of the saints. Then he said to me, “Write: ‘Blessed
are those who are called to the marriage supper of the Lamb!’” And he said to
me, “These are the true sayings of God.”’
8-The Eighth point to note is
that The Philadelphian Church (The Faithful Church of Christ), is The One that
gets Raptured into Heaven. This Church Worships The LORD in Spirit and in
Truth.
Are you in your individual
capacity a True Philadelphian Church?
SHALOM!!!
Revelation 7:13-14 ‘“And
to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write, ‘These things says He who is
holy, He who is true, “He who has the key of David, He who opens and no one
shuts, and shuts and no one opens”: “I know your works. See, I have set before
you an open door, and no one can shut it; for you have a little strength, have
kept My word, and have not denied My name. Indeed I will make those of the
synagogue of Satan, who say they are Jews and are not, but lie—indeed I will
make them come and worship before your feet, and to know that I have loved you.
Because you have kept My command to persevere, I also will keep you from the
hour of trial which shall come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on
the earth. Behold, I am coming quickly! Hold fast what you have, that no one
may take your crown. He who overcomes, I will make him a pillar in the temple
of My God, and he shall go out no more. I will write on him the name of My God
and the name of the city of My God, the New Jerusalem, which comes down out of
heaven from My God. And I will write on him My new name. “He who has an ear,
let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.”’
SHALOM!!!
NOTE: I first posted the above Message (Teaching) on 18th September
2016. It remains relevant today, in the past and forever more. Glory and Honour
be to The LORD.
2nd Peter: 1-12 ‘“So I will always remind you of
these things, even though you know them and are firmly established in the truth
you now have.”’
(‘“For this reason I will not be negligent to
remind you always of these things, though you know and are established in the
present truth.”’).
REPENTANCE PRAYER:
Precious Jesus,
I acknowledge today that you are LORD and Savior
of all mankind,
and today I have recognized my shortfall,
I Repent and turn away from all Sin
Please cover me with your Precious Blood,
and establish your Word in my life,
that I may be found in Righteousness and
Holiness
and write my name in your Book of Life
and Baptize me with the Power of The Holy Spirit
in The Mighty Name of Jesus Christ
AMEN.
Your Brother in Christ Jesus, and a Shepherd of
The LORD,

Dear Bro,
ReplyDeleteright topic. I ve been talking about it past few months, as a comment to frequent and loud commentary of the "large flock" - who keep repeating the bible verses how "the gates of the devil will not prevail over Church". So, no trouble, keep relaxed. But WHO is that remnant church? It is just a small flock. Only Philadelphia. type of church. Many others are built on sand.
