The Kingdom of God has been a net that has brought in of every kind. It is time now for that which is wicked and evil, dark and unclean, to be removed from the Kingdom of God.

The way of the Lord must be made straight. The holy must clearly be holy and the filthy must clearly be filthy. The present mixture is an abomination to God. It will be divided into the righteous and the wicked. Then will the righteous shine in the Kingdom. Then will the Lord return for an unblemished Bride.

The days of judgment, of separation, are here now. The darkness is settling on us. It is time for God's true Jerusalem to arise and put on her beautiful garments of righteousness and praise. The power of redemption is present to cleanse the saints from their sin and self-rule.

Each of us Christians must set his house in order. Only the pure, the true, will be able to stand in the present hour. Let the reader look to the Lord Jesus in faith. "Lord, what would you have me to do?"

Zion is asleep! Sinners are at ease and amuse themselves in the house of God. The self-seeking and lust of man is predominant. The sword of the Lord is poised over the Christian churches and over the nations that are staggering about in lust, violence, and drunkenness. Such cannot behold the righteous and holy Christ shining in His churches.

The witness of Christ in the churches is not strong enough to guide the nations of the earth into the godly conduct that would result in their acceptance by Christ, that would guide them toward eternal life in the Kingdom of God (Matthew 28:19,20).

The sinners in Zion will be terrified at what they behold in the near future. The hypocrites will be astonished. It is the dark hour just before the dawning of the Day of the Lord. Only those who truly are living in marriage, in union, with the Lord Jesus Christ will be able to resist the deceiving spiritual darkness that even now is settling down on us.

Our contemporary, spiritually weak Christian church cultures no longer will be sufficient to preserve us from the attacks of an enraged Satan and his demons. The Day of which the Hebrew Prophets spoke is at hand.

Who among us can walk with the devouring Fire of Israel?

He that walketh righteously, and speaketh uprightly; he that despiseth the gain of oppressions, that shaketh his hands from holding of bribes, that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood, and shutteth his eyes from seeing evil; (Isaiah 33:15)

God's standard for fellowship with Himself never changes. The spiritual "singles" cannot meet this standard of behavior. Only those who are married to the Lord Jesus, in whom He is working constantly, are being transformed so the righteous and holy ways of the Lord are observed. The married perform God's law by nature because the Righteous One, Christ, is being created in them and is dwelling in them. Righteous, holy, and obedient behavior are the fruit of marriage to the Lord.

To be continued.
