The wisdom of the fathers DIVINE MESSAGE ? The significance of the 12 Marks of Perfect Submission: For PHILADELPHIA-CHRISTIANS: What does this message mean for the Church of God? She should by no means to be sent into a state of agitation, but be woken up and made to trim their lamps, that is, to prepare for the coming bridegroom. This happens by accepting the twelve marks as divine message and making every effort to put them into practice. More does the Lord not demand. Who rejects, however, even one of the marks, will not take part in the rapture and the marriage of the Lamb. (Jas. 2.10, Luke 10.16) But who agrees with this message (John 7.16,17) will receive from the Lord Himself the seal of the Spirit for the rapture.(Rev.7) We must keep in mind, though, when we pass on the message, that it is not meant for the world, but only for the people of God, for it is written: Do not give to dogs what is sacred and do not throw your pearls to the pigs. (Mt. 7.6) But who withholds it from the people of God and does not business with the entrusted talent will be held accountable and lose himself his privilege to be raptured. Just because of one single obedience, even Moses could not enter the Promised Land and king Saul was rejected because of it. The lazy servant and the goats at the last judgement in Mt. 25 forfeited their salvation just because of sins of omission. Whoever is not convinced of the divine inspiration of this message, however, - meant are mainly the 12 Marks of Perfect Submission - does not need them pass on and thereby become guilty of hypocrisy. These truths will reveal themselves directly to every heart and conscience of a Philadelphia-Christian, for everyone who is of the truth hears His voice. But anyone who has not let himself be loosed thoroughly from all satanic mendacity will not recognise the truth and therefore reject it. For LAODICEAN CHRISTIANS the 12 marks mean an admonishment to submit to the discipline of the Word of God, to strive for the oil of the Holy Spirit and give Him room, before it is to late. If someone wants to know how to receive the oil of the Holy Spirit, the answer is in short threefold: 1) Agree with God in His judgement of yourself and accept His testimony, that you are by nature a lost and condemned sinner who can not be saved by any of his own performance and will be excluded form the kingdom of God by holding on to even one single sin or disobedience. (Rom.6.23, Jas 2.10, Luke 14.33) 2) Agree with God, when He testifies, that only in Christ and His accomplished sacrifice on the cross is found salvation. (Rom 3.24, Acts 4.12) 3) Agree with God, when He testifies, that only the he has part in salvation, who is ready to break with every known sin, to put his self-life into death and accepts Christ not only as his atoning sacrifice, but also as absolute Lord of his life, and completely surrenders to Him. This is the blessed faith, that pledges allegiance even unto death to the Saviour - out of thankfulness for the finished work of salvation, that no man or devil can rob from us. Everything else is just empty imagination, daydreaming and devotion to delusions that contradict the reality and truth of the Word of God. But He gives grace to the sincere. Just as no-one can be a citizen of an earthly kingdom, if they rebel against authority, so no-one can be a citizen of the kingdom of God, if they rebel against the Anointed One. Whoever has found the way of salvation and received the gift of the Holy Spirit must not rest on this experience, but strive to progress on the once taken course and according to Gods command become filled with the Spirit by joining with other likeminded Christians and putting the 12 marks of Perfect Submission into practice.
