(To Coincide with Priests and Priests To Be Upgrading Service II)

Peace and grace in the love of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Revelation 4:4
4:4 Around the throne weretwenty-four thrones, and on the thrones I saw twenty-four elders sitting, clothed in white robes; and they had crowns of gold on their heads.

The twenty-four elders around the throne of Heaven are divided as follows:

  1. The twelve elders = the twelve apostles of the first rain.
  2. The other twelve elders = the twelve apostles of the last rain.

They also refer to the breaking of bread. In Matthew 14-15, there are two times of the breaking of breadas follows:

  1. [Matthew 14:13-21] The five loaves and two fish to feed five thousand people.
    The bread refers to the Word. The fish refers to the Holy Spirit.
    The number five refers to the five wounds of Jesus to save the sinner.
    The first breaking of bread refers to the revival in gospel or the Good News to save the sinner.

  2. [Matthew 15:32-39] The seven loaves and fish to feed the four thousand people.
    The number seven refers to the perfection.
    The second breaking of bread refers to the revival of Holy Spirit at the last rain which is in the Word that is sharper than any two-edged sword to sanctify the saved people to become perfect as Jesus is.

Between the two times of the breaking of bread there is a story about the woman of Canaan who believed[Matthew 15:21-28].

Matthew 15:24, 26

15:24 But He answered and said, "I was not sent except to the lost sheep of the house of Israel."
15:26
But He answered and said, "It is not good to take the children's bread and throw itto the little dogs."

Actually, Jesus was sent for Israel, the chosen people of God. The revival of Holy Spirit at the first and the last rain are for saving and perfecting the Israel until they become the perfect Bride of Heaven.

Romans 11:25-26

11:25 For I do not desire, brethren, that you should be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be wise in your own opinion, that blindness in part has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in.
11:26
And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written: "The Deliverer will come out of Zion,and He will turn away ungodliness from Jacob.

Israel refused Jesus as well as the revival of Holy Spirit at the first and the last rain because of the hard heart, so the opportunity and the great mercy of God are opened for the Gentiles. The Gentiles can be saved and perfected.

The result is the whole spiritual Israel (the Israel and Gentiles) can be saved and perfected to become the one perfect body of Christ, the Bride of Heaven that is ready to greet the second coming of Jesus on glorious clouds.

Romans 11:22

11:22 Therefore consider the goodness and severity of God: on those who fell, severity; but toward you, goodness, if you continue in Hisgoodness. Otherwise you also will be cut off.

The Gentiles who have already been saved and perfected must heed and dwell in the mercy of God, or else they will be cut and destroyed by God. There will be no more chance for them.

The practice of heeding and walking in the mercy of Godis as follows:

  1. The Gentiles must lick the crumbs that refer to the true teaching Word and the Holy Communion.
    Matthew 15:26-27
    15:26 But He answered and said, "It is not good to take the children's bread and throw itto the little dogs."
    15:27
    And she said, "Yes, Lord, yet even the little dogs eat the crumbswhich fall from their masters' table."

    Licking the crumbs can be done especially in Bible Study Service and Holy Communion. We experience the double purification.

    The result is we are sanctified from the double character of Gentiles as follows:

    1. The dog licks his own vomit. It is the idle word, lie, gossip, and evil speaking.
    2. The sow, having washed, returns to her wallowing in the mire. It is the sin up to the peak of sin that is the sin of eating-drinking and marrying-being given in marriage.

    Ephesians 4:11-12
    4:11 And He Himself gave some to beapostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers,
    4:12
    for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ,

    If the Gentiles are sanctified from the character of the dog and sows, they will be equipped with ministry and the gift of Holy Spirit. They will be employed in the building of the perfect body of Christ.

  2. We must heed solemnly the ministry to God.
    2 Corinthians 4:1
    4:1 Therefore, since we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we do not lose heart.

    It means as follows:

    1. We do not lose heart, become disappointed or desperate, and leave the ministry whatever happens.

    2. We are not negligent or unfaithful and do not leave the ministry.
      Jeremiah 48:10
      48:10 Cursed ishe who does the work of the Lorddeceitfully,and cursed ishe who keeps back his sword from blood.

    3. We do not stumble or leave the ministry.

    God never fools the priests and kings. The more we sacrifice for ministry, the more grace and mercy we receive from God.

The priest from the Gentiles must serve and minister God in faithfulness and fervency, faithfulness and righteousness, faithfulness and responsibility to God.

The results are as follows:

  1. We fight for the ministry more than anything. God will also fight for our life more than anything.
    1 Timothy 4:8-10
    4:8 For bodily exercise profits a little, but godliness is profitable for all things, having promise of the life that now is and of that which is to come.
    4:9
    This isa faithful saying and worthy of all acceptance.
    4:10
    For to this endwe both labor and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is theSavior of all men, especially of those who believe.

  2. God gives guarantee to live in this world,the future, up to the eternal life. God never fools us.

  3. Worshipping God.
    Psalm 5:7
    5:7 But as for me, I will come into Your house in the multitude of Your mercy; In fear of You I will worship toward Your holy temple.

    Judges 7:5-6
    7:5 So he brought the people down to the water. And the Lordsaid to Gideon, "Everyone who laps from the water with his tongue, as a dog laps, you shall set apart by himself; likewise everyone who gets down on his knees to drink."
    7:6
    And the number of those who lapped, puttingtheir hand to their mouth, was three hundred men; but all the rest of the people got down on their knees to drink water.

    The Gentiles worship God like the dog that licks the living water of God's love.

    Matthew 17:1-2
    17:1 Now after six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John his brother, led them up on a high mountain by themselves;
    17:2
    and He was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and His clothes became as white as the light.

    We always feel the satisfaction and spiritual freshness. So we will not look for satisfaction in the world. We keep warm in spirit and we are not faithless.

    The love of God makes us experience the life renewal from carnal man to spiritual one like Jesus. It starts from being clothed in pure and bright linen. It refers to the right and good deed, we become blessing for others, and we do not harm others.

    Revelation 19:8
    19:8 And to her it was granted to be arrayed in fine linen, clean and bright, for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints.

    Revelation 4:4

    4:4 Around the throne weretwenty-four thrones, and on the thrones I saw twenty-four elders sitting, clothed in white robes; and they had crowns of gold on their heads.

    We must worship so the dirty clothe will change into the white linen. It continues to the renewal of countenance that is the renewal of heart to become strong and of good courage. If we are strong and of good courage, we have beaming face. Being strong and of good courage means that we are not disappointed or desperate in everything but we hold fast the true teaching Word. We keep faithful and fervent in ministry. We believe, hope, worship, and give thank to God.

    The results are as follows:

    1. Receiving the golden crown or the crown of life.

      James 1:12

      1:12 Blessed isthe man who endures temptation; for when he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him.

      Revelation 4:4
      4:4 Around the throne weretwenty-four thrones, and on the thrones I saw twenty-four elders sitting, clothed in white robes; and they had crowns of gold on their heads.

    2. The mercy hands of God are able to finish all problems, even the impossible ones
      1 Chronicles 28:20
      28:20 And David said to his son Solomon, "Be strong and of good courage, and do it;do not fear nor be dismayed, for the LordGod--my God--will bewith you. He will not leave you nor forsake you, until you have finished all the work for the service of the house of the Lord.

      The mercy hands of God purify our life until we are perfect like He is. We are ready to greet His second coming on glorious clouds. We are ready to sit on the throne of heaven in white robes and the crown of life.

God blesses us.
