The Daily Word of Righteousness
You Are My People, #38
Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. (John 8:44)
In numerous instances, neither the Judaic religionists nor the Gentile religionists know God and His Christ. They are of their father, the devil, and they do the works of their father.
We are coming to the day when all of God's true elect, both Jew and Gentile, will join together as one stick in God's hand. Then will the great Babylon arise in her fury and add much blood to that which already is on her hands. The Lord's people will be accounted as sheep for the slaughter.
But in the end the Lord's witnesses from every age will arise from the dead and be clothed with Divine Glory. The righteous shall rejoice. The meek shall inherit the earth.
Then the moon shall be confounded, and the sun ashamed, when the Lord of hosts shall reign in mount Zion, and in Jerusalem, and before his ancients gloriously. (Isaiah 24:23)
Great Babylon shall come to her end and there is no hand that can save her.
Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her. (Revelation 18:8)
The return of the remnant to Israel.
Therefore will he [Christ] give them [the people of Israel] up, until the time she [the new-covenant believers] which travaileth hath brought forth [Christ in the saints—see Revelation, Chapter 12]: then the remnant of his brethren [Christ's brothers, the new-covenant saints—see Romans 8:29] shall return unto the children of Israel [the earthly nation of Israel]. (Micah 5:3)
Today the true saints are in travail, a travail to bring forth Christ, the ruler of the nations of the earth.
Who hath heard such a thing? who hath seen such things? Shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day? or shall a nation be born at once? for as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children. (Isaiah 66:8)
For two thousand years the Gentile believers have labored in the beliefs and practices of religion, just as was true of the Jewish people for hundreds of years previously. This has been true for the sincere of the Jews and Gentiles as well as for those whose hearts have not been established in the Lord.
Now—suddenly—Zion, the elect of God, the true saints, are laboring to bring forth Christ; and He is coming to birth in the form of Zion's children!
As Christ is formed in us we begin to understand that our religious beliefs and practices, our diligent adherence to the Scriptures, have been bringing us to the place where the Word has been formed in us. We have kept the Word and now the Word is keeping us. The Day Star—Christ—is arising in our heart
