The
Remedy
For months now we have been
discussing the faltering of the wayward church. In these discussions we have
revealed the fall of the mainstream church, the spawning of fables, the
propagation of false doctrine, the rise of other jesuses, the hate from the
kingdom of heaven for sin and wickedness and the purveyors of such, and the
undeniable worldwide rejection of God, His holy spirit and His son Yeshua
Jesus, the Christ child of Nazareth. As
I was writing praying about and contemplating the last teaching, “Why do the
Heathen Rage,” I believe that the lord impressed upon me that he wanted me to
begin speaking on the prescribed remedy for the fall of mankind and the church.
What He says should be done to bring man back into alignment with and in a good
relationship with God.
1 Behold, the Lord's hand is not
shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear:
2 But your iniquities have
separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you,
that he will not hear.
Mankind surely cannot endure
joyfully and in peace residing in a state of separation from our creator. However,
Halleluiah, the word of God tells us that He is slow to wrath and quick to
forgive. But we have got to put ourselves into a place where we can receive His
forgiveness. The word of God gives us the instructions for the remedy.
6 Seek ye the Lord while he may be
found, call ye upon him while he is near:
7 Let the wicked forsake his way,
and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the Lord, and he
will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
8 For my thoughts are not your
thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord.
9 For as the heavens are higher
than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your
thoughts.
14 If my people, which are called
by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from
their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin,
and will heal their land.
51 Verily, verily, I say unto you,
If a man keep my saying, he shall never see death.
7 Submit yourselves therefore to
God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
8 Draw nigh to God, and he will
draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye
double minded.
26 He said unto him, What is
written in the law? how readest thou?
27 And he answering said, Thou
shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with
all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself.
28 And he said unto him, Thou hast
answered right: this do, and thou shalt live.
22 But be ye doers of the word, and
not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
23 For if any be a hearer of the
word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a
glass:
29 Then Peter and the other
apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.
34 Awake to righteousness, and sin
not; for some have not the knowledge of God: I speak this to your shame.
3 But know that the Lord hath set
apart him that is godly for himself: the Lord will hear when I call unto him.
4 Stand in awe, and sin not:
commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still. Selah.
1John 2:1
1 My little children, these things
write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with
the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:
10 When Jesus had lifted up
himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those
thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?
11 She said, No man, Lord. And
Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.
17 All unrighteousness is sin: and
there is a sin not unto death.
9 If we confess our sins, he is
faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all
unrighteousness.
5 Because that Abraham obeyed my
voice, and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.
5 Now therefore, if ye will obey my
voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto
me above all people: for all the earth is mine:
20 That thou mayest love the Lord
thy God, and that thou mayest obey his voice, and that thou mayest cleave unto
him: for he is thy life, and the length of thy days: that thou mayest dwell in
the land which the Lord sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to
Jacob, to give them.
1 And God spake all these words,
saying,
2 I am the Lord thy God, which have
brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
3 Thou shalt have no other gods
before me.
4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any
graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is
in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself
to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the
iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation
of them that hate me;
6 And shewing mercy unto thousands
of them that love me, and keep my commandments.
7 Thou shalt not take the name of
the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh
his name in vain.
8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep
it holy.
9 Six days shalt thou labour, and
do all thy work:
10 But the seventh day is the
sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy
son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor
thy stranger that is within thy gates:
11 For in six days the Lord made
heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day:
wherefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
12 Honour thy father and thy
mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth
thee.
13 Thou shalt not kill.
14 Thou shalt not commit adultery.
15 Thou shalt not steal.
16 Thou shalt not bear false
witness against thy neighbour.
17 Thou shalt not covet thy
neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his
manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is
thy neighbour's.
1 Ye shall make you no idols nor
graven image, neither rear you up a standing image, neither shall ye set up any
image of stone in your land, to bow down unto it: for I am the Lord your God.
2 Ye shall keep my sabbaths, and
reverence my sanctuary: I am the Lord.
3 If ye walk in my statutes, and
keep my commandments, and do them;
4 Then I will give you rain in due
season, and the land shall yield her increase, and the trees of the field shall
yield their fruit.
5 And your threshing shall reach
unto the vintage, and the vintage shall reach unto the sowing time: and ye
shall eat your bread to the full, and dwell in your land safely.
6 And I will give peace in the
land, and ye shall lie down, and none shall make you afraid: and I will rid
evil beasts out of the land, neither shall the sword go through your land.
7 And ye shall chase your enemies,
and they shall fall before you by the sword.
8 And five of you shall chase an
hundred, and an hundred of you shall put ten thousand to flight: and your
enemies shall fall before you by the sword.
9 For I will have respect unto you,
and make you fruitful, and multiply you, and establish my covenant with you.
10 And ye shall eat old store, and
bring forth the old because of the new.
11 And I set my tabernacle among
you: and my soul shall not abhor you.
12 And I will walk among you, and
will be your God, and ye shall be my people.
13 I am the Lord your God, which
brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, that ye should not be their
bondmen; and I have broken the bands of your yoke, and made you go upright.
24 Thou shalt not bow down to their
gods, nor serve them, nor do after their works: but thou shalt utterly
overthrow them, and quite break down their images.
25 And ye shall serve the Lord your
God, and he shall bless thy bread, and thy water; and I will take sickness away
from the midst of thee.
14 Be ye not unequally yoked
together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with
unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?
15 And what concord hath Christ
with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?
16 And what agreement hath the
temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath
said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they
shall be my people.
17 Wherefore come out from among
them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and
I will receive you.
18 And will be a Father unto you,
and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.
3 For this is the love of God, that
we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.
4 For whatsoever is born of God
overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even
our faith.
5 Who is he that overcometh the
world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?
22 Lay hands suddenly on no man,
neither be partaker of other men's sins: keep thyself pure.
Ephesians 5:1-7
1 Be ye therefore followers of God,
as dear children;
2 And walk in love, as Christ also
hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God
for a sweetsmelling savour.
3 But fornication, and all
uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh
saints;
4 Neither filthiness, nor foolish
talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks.
5 For this ye know, that no
whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any
inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.
6 Let no man deceive you with vain
words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of
disobedience.
7 Be not ye therefore partakers
with them.
1Corinthians 6:9-10
9 Know ye not that the unrighteous
shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor
idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with
mankind,
10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor
drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
6 And he said unto me, It is done.
I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is
athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.
7 He that overcometh shall inherit
all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.
8 But the fearful, and unbelieving,
and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and
idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with
fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
31 I protest by your rejoicing
which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.
32 If after the manner of men I
have fought with beasts at Ephesus, what advantageth it me, if the dead rise
not? let us eat and drink; for to morrow we die.
33 Be not deceived: evil
communications corrupt good manners.
34 Awake to righteousness, and sin
not; for some have not the knowledge of God: I speak this to your shame.
Ephesians 5:11-14
11 And have no fellowship with the
unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.
12 For it is a shame even to speak
of those things which are done of them in secret.
13 But all things that are reproved
are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light.
14 Wherefore he saith, Awake thou
that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.
12 This is my commandment, That ye
love one another, as I have loved you.
13 Greater love hath no man than
this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
14 Ye are my friends, if ye do
whatsoever I command you.
15 Henceforth I call you not
servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called
you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known
unto you.
16 Ye have not chosen me, but I
have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and
that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my
name, he may give it you.
17 These things I command you, that
ye love one another.
19 Then came to him his mother and
his brethren, and could not come at him for the press.
20 And it was told him by certain
which said, Thy mother and thy brethren stand without, desiring to see thee.
21 And he answered and said unto
them, My mother and my brethren are these which hear the word of God, and do
it.
35 For whosoever shall do the will
of God, the same is my brother, and my sister, and mother.
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 in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and
mother.
20 But wilt thou know, O vain man,
that faith without works is dead?
21 Was not Abraham our father
justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar?
22 Seest thou how faith wrought
with his works, and by works was faith made perfect?
23 And the scripture was fulfilled
which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for
righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God.
24 Ye see then how that by works a
man is justified, and not by faith only.
25 Likewise also was not Rahab the
harlot justified by works, when she had received the messengers, and had sent
them out another way?
26 For as the body without the
spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.
12 And I saw the dead, small and
great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was
opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things
which were written in the books, according to their works.
13 And the sea gave up the dead
which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them:
and they were judged every man according to their works.
13 Thou shalt fear the Lord thy
God, and serve him, and shalt swear by his name.
14 Ye shall not go after other
gods, of the gods of the people which are round about you;
15 (For the Lord thy God is a
jealous God among you) lest the anger of the Lord thy God be kindled against
thee, and destroy thee from off the face of the earth.
16 Ye shall not tempt the Lord your
God, as ye tempted him in Massah.
17 Ye shall diligently keep the
commandments of the Lord your God, and his testimonies, and his statutes, which
he hath commanded thee.
18 And thou shalt do that which is
right and good in the sight of the Lord: that it may be well with thee, and
that thou mayest go in and possess the good land which the Lord sware unto thy
fathers.
5 But whoso keepeth his word, in
him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him.
6 He that saith he abideth in him
ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.
6 Whosoever abideth in him sinneth
not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.
7 Little children, let no man
deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
8 He that committeth sin is of the
devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of
God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
9 Whosoever is born of God doth not
commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is
born of God.
10 In this the children of God are
manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is
not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.
10 And that ye may put difference
between holy and unholy, and between unclean and clean;
Ruth 1:16
16 And Ruth said, Intreat me not to
leave thee, or to return from following after thee: for whither thou goest, I
will go; and where thou lodgest, I will lodge: thy people shall be my people,
and thy God my God:
46 This is the law of the beasts,
and of the fowl, and of every living creature that moveth in the waters, and of
every creature that creepeth upon the earth:
47 To make a difference between the
unclean and the clean, and between the beast that may be eaten and the beast
that may not be eaten.
15 One ordinance shall be both for
you of the congregation, and also for the stranger that sojourneth with you, an
ordinance for ever in your generations: as ye are, so shall the stranger be
before the Lord.
16 One law and one manner shall be
for you, and for the stranger that sojourneth with you.
13 But the man that is clean, and
is not in a journey, and forbeareth to keep the passover, even the same soul
shall be cut off from among his people: because he brought not the offering of
the Lord in his appointed season, that man shall bear his sin.
14 And if a stranger shall sojourn
among you, and will keep the passover unto the Lord; according to the ordinance
of the passover, and according to the manner thereof, so shall he do: ye shall
have one ordinance, both for the stranger, and for him that was born in the
land.
1 And the Lord spake unto Moses,
saying,
2 Speak unto the children of
Israel, and say unto them, Concerning the feasts of the Lord, which ye shall
proclaim to be holy convocations, even these are my feasts.
3 Six days shall work be done: but
the seventh day is the sabbath of rest, an holy convocation; ye shall do no
work therein: it is the sabbath of the Lord in all your dwellings.
4 These are the feasts of the Lord,
even holy convocations, which ye shall proclaim in their seasons.
5 In the fourteenth day of the
first month at even is the Lord's passover.
6 And on the fifteenth day of the
same month is the feast of unleavened bread unto the Lord: seven days ye must
eat unleavened bread.
7 In the first day ye shall have an
holy convocation: ye shall do no servile work therein.
8 But ye shall offer an offering
made by fire unto the Lord seven days: in the seventh day is an holy
convocation: ye shall do no servile work therein.
9 And the Lord spake unto Moses,
saying,
10 Speak unto the children of
Israel, and say unto them, When ye be come into the land which I give unto you,
and shall reap the harvest thereof, then ye shall bring a sheaf of the
firstfruits of your harvest unto the priest:
11 And he shall wave the sheaf
before the Lord, to be accepted for you: on the morrow after the sabbath the
priest shall wave it.
12 And ye shall offer that day when
ye wave the sheaf an he lamb without blemish of the first year for a burnt
offering unto the Lord.
13 And the meat offering thereof
shall be two tenth deals of fine flour mingled with oil, an offering made by
fire unto the Lord for a sweet savour: and the drink offering thereof shall be
of wine, the fourth part of an hin.
14 And ye shall eat neither bread,
nor parched corn, nor green ears, until the selfsame day that ye have brought
an offering unto your God: it shall be a statute for ever throughout your
generations in all your dwellings.
15 And ye shall count unto you from
the morrow after the sabbath, from the day that ye brought the sheaf of the
wave offering; seven sabbaths shall be complete:
16 Even unto the morrow after the
seventh sabbath shall ye number fifty days; and ye shall offer a new meat
offering unto the Lord.
17 Ye shall bring out of your
habitations two wave loaves of two tenth deals; they shall be of fine flour;
they shall be baken with leaven; they are the firstfruits unto the Lord.
18 And ye shall offer with the
bread seven lambs without blemish of the first year, and one young bullock, and
two rams: they shall be for a burnt offering unto the Lord, with their meat
offering, and their drink offerings, even an offering made by fire, of sweet
savour unto the Lord.
19 Then ye shall sacrifice one kid
of the goats for a sin offering, and two lambs of the first year for a
sacrifice of peace offerings.
20 And the priest shall wave them
with the bread of the firstfruits for a wave offering before the Lord, with the
two lambs: they shall be holy to the Lord for the priest.
21 And ye shall proclaim on the
selfsame day, that it may be an holy convocation unto you: ye shall do no
servile work therein: it shall be a statute for ever in all your dwellings
throughout your generations.
22 And when ye reap the harvest of
your land, thou shalt not make clean riddance of the corners of thy field when
thou reapest, neither shalt thou gather any gleaning of thy harvest: thou shalt
leave them unto the poor, and to the stranger: I am the Lord your God.
23 And the Lord spake unto Moses,
saying,
24 Speak unto the children of
Israel, saying, In the seventh month, in the first day of the month, shall ye
have a sabbath, a memorial of blowing of trumpets, an holy convocation.
25 Ye shall do no servile work
therein: but ye shall offer an offering made by fire unto the Lord.
26 And the Lord spake unto Moses,
saying,
27 Also on the tenth day of this
seventh month there shall be a day of atonement: it shall be an holy
convocation unto you; and ye shall afflict your souls, and offer an offering
made by fire unto the Lord.
28 And ye shall do no work in that
same day: for it is a day of atonement, to make an atonement for you before the
Lord your God.
29 For whatsoever soul it be that
shall not be afflicted in that same day, he shall be cut off from among his
people.
30 And whatsoever soul it be that
doeth any work in that same day, the same soul will I destroy from among his
people.
31 Ye shall do no manner of work:
it shall be a statute for ever throughout your generations in all your
dwellings.
32 It shall be unto you a sabbath
of rest, and ye shall afflict your souls: in the ninth day of the month at
even, from even unto even, shall ye celebrate your sabbath.
33 And the Lord spake unto Moses,
saying,
34 Speak unto the children of
Israel, saying, The fifteenth day of this seventh month shall be the feast of
tabernacles for seven days unto the Lord.
35 On the first day shall be an
holy convocation: ye shall do no servile work therein.
36 Seven days ye shall offer an
offering made by fire unto the Lord: on the eighth day shall be an holy
convocation unto you; and ye shall offer an offering made by fire unto the
Lord: it is a solemn assembly; and ye shall do no servile work therein.
37 These are the feasts of the
Lord, which ye shall proclaim to be holy convocations, to offer an offering
made by fire unto the Lord, a burnt offering, and a meat offering, a sacrifice,
and drink offerings, every thing upon his day:
38 Beside the sabbaths of the Lord,
and beside your gifts, and beside all your vows, and beside all your freewill
offerings, which ye give unto the Lord.
39 Also in the fifteenth day of the
seventh month, when ye have gathered in the fruit of the land, ye shall keep a
feast unto the Lord seven days: on the first day shall be a sabbath, and on the
eighth day shall be a sabbath.
40 And ye shall take you on the
first day the boughs of goodly trees, branches of palm trees, and the boughs of
thick trees, and willows of the brook; and ye shall rejoice before the Lord
your God seven days.
41 And ye shall keep it a feast
unto the Lord seven days in the year. It shall be a statute for ever in your
generations: ye shall celebrate it in the seventh month.
42 Ye shall dwell in booths seven
days; all that are Israelites born shall dwell in booths:
43 That your generations may know
that I made the children of Israel to dwell in booths, when I brought them out
of the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God.
44 And Moses declared unto the
children of Israel the feasts of the Lord.
1 Though I speak with the tongues
of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a
tinkling cymbal.
2 And though I have the gift of
prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have
all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am
nothing.
3 And though I bestow all my goods
to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity,
it profiteth me nothing.
4 Charity suffereth long, and is
kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,
5 Doth not behave itself unseemly,
seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
6 Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but
rejoiceth in the truth;
7 Beareth all things, believeth all
things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.
8 Charity never faileth: but
whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they
shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.
9 For we know in part, and we
prophesy in part.
10 But when that which is perfect
is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.
11 When I was a child, I spake as a
child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man,
I put away childish things.
12 For now we see through a glass,
darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even
as also I am known.
13 And now abideth faith, hope,
charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.
16 For 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.
17 And the world passeth away, and
the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.
