The Daily Word of Righteousness
The Fullness of God, #3
In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord: in whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit. (Ephesians 2:21,22)
The Christian Church, the Body of Christ, is being constructed as the dwelling place of God and Christ so it may serve as a house for God in the earth.
It is our understanding that the personal fulfillment of Trumpets, the Day of Atonement, and Tabernacles will take place (although not perfectly and completely) in the victorious saints before Jesus returns, and it will be these saints who will be ready to rise to meet the Lord in the first resurrection from the dead.
It requires the fulfillment of the last three feasts in us before we are prepared adequately to meet the Lord when He appears and to rule with Him over the nations of the earth. The promises of rulership are to the victorious saints.
And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations: And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father. (Revelation 2:26,27)
After we have received the baptism with the Holy Spirit, which is the personal fulfillment of the fourth feast, we then are ready for the Lord to come to us in the personal fulfillment of Trumpets.
The personal fulfillment of the feast of Trumpets is the coming of the King, Christ, to wage war against His enemies that are in our personality, in preparation for the dwelling of God in us (the personal fulfillment of the feast of Tabernacles). During our personal fulfillment of the Day of Atonement the Lord judges the darkness in us, the worldliness, lust, and self-will.
The personal, spiritual fulfillment of the first four feasts are preparatory works (Hebrews 6:1). The actual construction of God's house commences when the Builder of the Church, Christ, comes to us in the personal fulfillment of the Blowing of Trumpets. This is when the work begins. (It is significant that the Blowing of Trumpets is New Year's Day in the Jewish culture.)
The coming of Christ to us in the personal fulfillment of Trumpets is announced in John 14:3:
And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
We suggest that the coming of the Lord is in two parts: (1) to the believer in personal fulfillment of the Blowing of Trumpets; and (2) in and with the whole group of victorious saints at the time of the Lord's return to earth.
We suggest further that until we partake of the individual fulfillment of Trumpets it is not possible for us to be part of the Lord's appearing to the world. The Lord Jesus is not coming alone to the world but in the company of those who share His Life. Only those who have become part of Him can be part of the kingdom-wide fulfillment of the Blowing of Trumpets, the coming of the King to the world. They alone will rule with Him over the saved nations.
To be continued.
