Faith and Food in Each Era


                                              

Faith and Food in Each Era

 

 Main reference: Mt 24 (Jn 6)


What are the proper faith and food in each of the eras?

 Starting from Adam’s era up to today, there were the eras of Adam, Noah, Moses, then Jesus’ First Coming; and there also is the era of Jesus’ Second Coming.

 What is the proper faith in each of the eras? There are prophecies and events of fulfillment in each of the eras, and believing in them is faith.

 There are two types of food: One is physical food, and the other is spiritual food. The food at the proper time (refer to Mt 24:45-47), which is the food that is given at the appointed time, is spiritual food and food of faith. The food at the proper time symbolizes the word that makes known the prophecy and its fulfilled reality at the time of the prophecy’s fulfillment.

 Matthew 24, today’s main reference, was a prophecy that was yet to be fulfilled. At the time of this prophecy (Mt 24)’s fulfillment, the food that believers must eat is the word (prophecy) of Mt 24 and its physical fulfillment that appears according to its very word.  

 God fulfilled the promise He had made with Abraham (Gn 15). The food that believers must have eaten at that time was the word of its prophecy (promise) and its physical fulfillment. Since the prophecies spoken to the Old Testament prophets were fulfilled during Jesus’ era, the food that believers must have eaten in that era was the Old Testament prophecies and the physical fulfillment Jesus fulfilled during his time. In John 6, Jesus’ flesh and blood were described as the bread of life (food). The flesh and blood symbolize the revelation/fulfillment of the Old Testament, and they were the spiritual food that believers must have eaten at that time. Jesus promised the prophecies in the New Testament roughly 2,000 years ago, and today they have been fulfilled in the Republic of Korea. The food that believers must eat in this era is the New Testament prophecies and the physical fulfillment that has appeared in accordance with those prophecies.

 This is the faith and food that God gives to believers in each era.

 If it were physical food, any food can be eaten regardless of eras, but it is different with spiritual food. If one still testifies to the Old Testament prophecies and their fulfillment while the promised New Testament has been fulfilled, his testimonies cannot be the proper food at the time of the New Testament’s fulfillment. The proper food at the time of the New Testament’s fulfillment is the New Testament itself (prophecy) and its fulfilled reality. Today at the time of Revelation’s fulfillment, one can attain salvation only by eating this food (the New Testament prophecies and their physical fulfillment).  

 Even if one has heard the testimony of the Old Testament and its fulfillment (figuratively eating that testimony), if he neither sees and hears the fulfillment of the New Testament, nor believes in it, he will be unable to eat the food given at the proper time. He will remain hungry. The food will pass by him as if he were in dark night. Since he will be unable to see and hear it, he will also be unable to believe it, and as a result, he will not acquire salvation.

 Jesus’ testimony 2,000 years ago was regarding the fulfillment of the Old Testament (Jn 19:30). His testimony at the Second Coming is regarding the fulfillment of the New Testament (Rv 21:6). Just as the Old Testament was fulfilled, the New Testament will be all fulfilled at the Lord’s second coming. After Jesus breaks and opens (Rv 6, Rv 8) the seals of the sealed scroll (Rv 5), he allows one person (the promised pastor, New John) in Rv 10 to receive and eat it. Furthermore, after Jesus fulfills all of the New Testament (the events of the entire book of Revelation), he shows the entire fulfillment and make it known to this one person (Rv 22:8). Jesus chooses this person (a pastor), who has eaten the revealed scroll and has seen all the physical fulfillment of the entire book of Revelation, and sends him to the churches as his messenger to testify to them what he has seen and heard (Rv 22:16). Is it not the obligation of the saints to believe in these promises?


The faith that God wants us to have according to His will is to hear from the one who has received and eaten the opened scroll of which Jesus broke all the seven seals, and who has seen all the events of that opened scroll. The Scripture states that it is only those who do this will that can go to heaven (Mt 7:21). Those who do not act according to this will cannot enter into heaven.

 Everyone who does not hear and eat this food of the physical fulfillment of Revelation in the New Testament will hunger, and they will be unable to believe in the fulfillment because they have neither heard it nor seen it.

 What is God’s objective in fulfilling the book of Revelation? It is to create God’s kingdom, priests, and the great multitude in white. Since Adam’s fall, there has not been God’s true kingdom, pastors, and people on this earth. Adam’s world, Noah’s world, Moses’ world all broke the covenants and became corrupt, and thus, they got destroyed. If Adam, or Noah, or the Israelites of Moses had kept the covenants with God, then God would not have needed to promise another era (Hos 6:7; Ex 19:5-6; Jer 31:31-32). But God promised in Rv 1:5-6, “… freed us from our sins by his blood, and has made us to be a kingdom and priests to serve his God and Father …” This is the objective of Revelation.

 The Twelve Tribes God promised in Revelation is the kingdom of the promise. They are the priests and the white multitude. Whoever does not belong to the Twelve Tribes will be unable to attain salvation, not even a single person.

 Why do people not believe in the covenant, just like Adam and the Physical Israelites (Hos 6:7)?

 Believing in the physical fulfillment of Revelation, the promise of the New Testament, and the words of Jesus’ messenger who speaks on behalf of Jesus, is the same as believing in Jesus’ words (refer to Rv 1:1-3). Those who believe will inherit the kingdom of heaven and eternal life.

 Amen!

Adam, Noah, Moses, Jesus, the Messenger who Overcome (One who Overcomes), and the Life of Faith of the Believers who belong to Each Era

                            Adam, Noah, Moses, Jesus,

       the Messenger who Overcame (One who Overcomes),

 and the Life of Faith of the Believers who belong to Each Era





Main reference: Mt 7

 
 
▶ The World of Adam and the World of Noah (Adam’s 9th Descendant)

During Noah’s time, Adam’s family thought that they were the only orthodoxy that God created.  They did not realize that they sinned against God, that they became deceived by the snake, that they sided with the snake, that they were banished from the presence of God, and that God left them.  Also, they did not know that God was with Noah.  Hence, they rejected Noah as he tried to evangelize to them, and they were destroyed by the flood.
 

▶ The World of Noah and the World of Moses (Israel)

Although Noah’s family (the people of Noah’s world) saw Adam’s world betray and become destroyed by the flood, they too sinned like Adam (Gn 9).  After this, God went to Abraham, Noah’s 10th descendant, and prophesied about events that will happen in the future (Gn 15).  After living in Egypt for 4 generations, Jacob’s family came out of Egypt according to the prophecy, entered the land of Canaan, destroyed the Canaanites, and lived there. 

      After this, Israel was destroyed, for King Solomon worshiped gentile gods (1Kgs 11); as written in Isaiah 1, only one tribe remained—Judah and Jerusalem. Eventually, Judah and Jerusalem was also destroyed by the gentiles. 
 

▶The World of Physical Israel and the World of Jesus

Jesus was sent to Physical Israel (the people) (refer to Jn 17:3) according to God’s promise (Old Testament) like Noah and Moses.  However, like Noah’s family, Physical Israel thought they were the only ones who were saved from Egypt and have entered the land of Canaan.  They did not know that they received destruction for worshiping gentile gods and that God left them and was with Jesus.  Instead, they insulted and accused Jesus of being a cult.  Jesus told the Physical Israelites that they were like their ancestors who persecuted the prophets God sent in the past (Mt 23).

During Noah’s time, Adam’s family only believed in Adam and in his words.  During Moses’ time, Noah’s family only believed in Noah and in his words.  During Jesus’ time, the Israelites (Moses’ family) only believed in Moses and in his words.  As shown above, in each era, the previous world believed, but it did not believe in the promise of the new era.  If Physical Israel believed in God’s prophecies of the Old Testament (promise) instead of believing in the corrupted world of Moses, they would not have killed Jesus.

Today, the pastors and congregation members of the church of Jesus (Christianity and Catholicism) believe in Jesus, the cross, and in various images of Jesus and the Virgin Mary.  They say, “Lord, lord,” without knowing or believing in the prophecies of the New Testament (promise) that Jesus spoke about.  How can they be considered as the people who do God’s will?  If one truly believes in God and Jesus, shouldn’t they also believe in the things that God and Jesus promised (prophesied)?  There are many who cry out to Jesus, “Lord, lord,” but it is hard to find someone who truly believes in Jesus (Lk 18:8).  The one who truly believes in Jesus is the one who keeps his promise.  Like Adam, Eve, Ham, King Solomon, and the priests and people of Physical Israel, one cannot be a true believer for saying, “Lord, God.”

 

▶New Testament Prophecy about Spiritual Israel.  What is its physical reality?

Aren’t the corruptions of Spiritual Israel by far the greatest in the history of the past 6,000 years?  As it is written, Spiritual Israel became corrupt and betrayed; the sun, moon, and stars in the heavens (chosen people, Gn 37:9-11) fell to the earth (Mt 24:29; Rv 6:12-14), not one stone is left on another (Mt 24), they received the mark from the devil and worshiped him (Rv 13), all nations drank and fell from the wine of adulteries, and married the devil (Rv 17-18).   How can one say that this is not corruption?  They began with the spirit, but like Adam, they returned to flesh. 

Do you know what the wine of adulteries is—the wine that made all nations fall?  Why are the congregation members (believers of the world) not informed about this?  Haven’t the pastors drank this wine and offered it to their congregation members to drink just as Eve gave the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil to Adam?  Can they still be the orthodoxy?

While he was on this earth, and even after he departed, Jesus promised to send one pastor just as he (Jesus) was promised about in the Old Testament.  In the spirit, the Spirit of Truth who comes in the name of Jesus, the “another Counselor,” will come (Jn 14).  In the flesh, the pastor who gives the food at the proper time will come (Mt 24:45-47), and he is also promised about in Revelation 2-3, 12, 10, and 22:16. 

If the Physical Israelites at the time of the First Coming had perceived and believed in the Scriptures and in Jesus who came according to the Old Testament, rather than in Moses, they would have received salvation.  Likewise, there is salvation for the one who believes in the prophecies of the New Testament and in the pastor who has come according to that promise.  The one who truly believes in Jesus is the one who believes in his promise and keeps it.   Even if one claims to believe in Jesus, praises his name, and has a fervent faith, but does not believe in the pastor whom Jesus promised in the New Testament, there will be no salvation and no heaven for that person, and he/she will not be able to go to God and Jesus.  Please read verse by verse in Revelation 2-3 and see whether or not someone can receive salvation through other pastors apart from the one who overcomes. 

I (one who overcomes) am the messenger who received a command from Jesus after seeing and hearing the events of Revelation fulfill; I am the promised pastor sent for the churches (Rv 1:1-2, 22:16).   Can you believe?  Please, do not forget to read Revelation 12 and 2-3 to see the duty the one who overcomes has, and make much effort to receive salvation.   

There is not one pastor on this earth except for the one who overcomes who has mastered the Bible, who truly knows God’s will and acts according to it.  The pastors (and religious leaders) must set aside vanity and pride, humble themselves in obedience before the word, and carry a life of faith inside the Bible rather than outside.  They must offer their religions to God, and have all religions become one under God so that He can reign (Rv 19:6).   Perceiving this and repenting is the road to being born again and a road to salvation (Is 16:1, 1Cor 15:25-28, Rv 19:6).  I sincerely pray for this. 
 

Amen!
