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

8:13 And I looked, and I heard an angel flying through the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice, "Woe, woe, woe to the inhabitants of the earth, because of the remaining blasts of the trumpet of the three angels who are about to sound!"
There are two possibilities about the eagle as follows.
Job 39:27-30
39:27 Does the eagle mount up at your command, And make its nest on high?
39:28 On the rocks it dwells and resides, On the crag of the rock and the stronghold.
39:29 From there it spies out the prey; Its eyes observe from afar.
39:30 Its young ones suck up blood; And where the slain are, there it is."
Matthew 24:28
24:28 "For wherever the carcass is, there the eagles will be gathered together.

Isaiah 66:24
66:24 "And they shall go forth and look Upon the corpses of the men Who have transgressed against Me. For their worm does not die, And their fire is not quenched. They shall be an abhorrence to all flesh."
The carcass refers to the dead bodies of the people who disobey God and must be judged in the hell forever.
Mark 15:28
15:28So the Scripture was fulfilled which says, "And He was numbered with the transgressors."
Jesus is made equal to the transgressors. He must die on the cross and be supposed as the carcass.
Thus, the carcass refers to the dead body of Jesus on the cross.
Jesus willingly dies on the cross to be the carcass for helping and redeeming the sinful men so that they do not become the carcass perishing forever.
Thus, the eagles gathering together to the carcass refer to the servants of God who appreciate the sacrifice of Christ or get the redemption by the blood of Jesus.

25:8 "And let them make Me a sanctuary, that I may dwell among them.

1 Kings 9:3
9:3 And the LORD said to him: "I have heard your prayer and your supplication that you have made before Me; I have consecrated this house which you have built to put My namethere forever, and My eyesand My heartwill be there perpetually.

8:13 And I looked, and I heard an angel flying through the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice, "Woe, woe, woe to the inhabitants of the earth, because of the remaining blasts of the trumpet of the three angels who are about to sound!"
There are two possibilities about the eagle as follows.
- The people who reject the sound of the trumpet, the repeated true teaching Word, or the sanctification from now on will see and hear an eagle bringing the news about the fifth, the sixth, and the seventh blowing of the trumpet. It means experiencing the fifth, the sixth, and the seventh judgment of the Son of God.
- The people who hear and obey the sound of the trumpet or the repeated true teaching Word or experience the continual sanctification will appear as an eagle flying to a high mountain to wait for Jesus' second coming on the glorious clouds.
Job 39:27-30
39:27 Does the eagle mount up at your command, And make its nest on high?
39:28 On the rocks it dwells and resides, On the crag of the rock and the stronghold.
39:29 From there it spies out the prey; Its eyes observe from afar.
39:30 Its young ones suck up blood; And where the slain are, there it is."
Matthew 24:28

Revelation 14:3-5
14:3 They sang as it were a new song before the throne, before the four living creatures, and the elders; and no one could learn that song except the hundred and forty-four thousand who were redeemed from the earth.
14:4 These are the ones who were not defiled with women, for they are virgins. These are the ones who follow the Lamb wherever He goes. These were redeemed from among men, being firstfruits to God and to the Lamb.
14:5 And in their mouth was found no deceit, for they are without fault before the throne of God.
There are three kinds of the redemption by the blood of Jesus that we must experience all the time as follows.
- Being redeemed from among men.
It means as follows.- Being redeemed of the nations on earth like the house of Israel.
Revelation 5:9-10
5:9 And they sang a new song, saying: "You are worthy to take the scroll, And to open its seals; For You were slain, And have redeemed us to God by Your blood Out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation,
5:10 And have made us kings and priests to our God; And we shall reign on the earth."
Israel was redeemed and chosen by God from among the nations on earth to be appointed as the priests and kings.
Exodus 19:6
19:6 'And you shall be to Me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.' These are the words which you shall speak to the children of Israel."
Thus, only the native of Israel are worthy to be the priests and kings.
1 Peter 2:9-10
2:9 But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light;
2:10 who once were not a people but are now the people of God, who had not obtained mercy but now have obtained mercy.
According to the genealogy, the Gentiles cannot become the priest and king. Nevertheless, God opens the chance for the Gentiles to become the priest and king through His grace and mercy, namely through the redemption by Jesus on the cross.
A priest is a person who is holy. He also bears the office or serves and ministers to God according to the ministry He has entrusted.
The ordination of the Gentiles or the service and ministry to God cost the sacrifice of Christ or the blood of Jesus.
Not being serious in serving and ministering to God means trampling the blood of Jesus and going towards everlasting perdition. - Being redeemed from the flesh with all of its lusts and wills which make us disobedient to God.
Romans 8:7
8:7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be.
We must be redeemed by the blood of Jesus, so we can be obedient until the flesh does not speak anymore, regardless of any risks we must take.
We indeed need to pay the price to be obedient to the Word.
Matthew 7:24-25
7:24 "Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock:
7:25 "and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock.
If we are obedient, we can endure. We will not fall when the trinity of Satan attacks us.
The rainrefers to Satan with the spirits of evil and uncleanness.
The windrefers to the false prophets with the false teachings.
The floodrefers to the Antichrist with the bond of money which causes the stinginess and greediness.
1 Peter 1:6-7
1:6 In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while, if need be, you have been grieved by various trials,
1:7 that the genuineness of your faith, being much more precious than gold that perishes, though it is tested by fire, may be found to praise, honor, and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ,
Enduring is the same as having the faith which is like the pure gold to make us ready to welcome Jesus' second coming.
- Being redeemed of the nations on earth like the house of Israel.
- Being redeemed from the earth.
It means being redeemed from the world with all of its influences such as the activities, amenities, sorrows, difficulties, and so on which cause the unfaithfulness in serving and ministering to God.
James 4:4
4:4 Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.
We are redeemed from the world so that we can be the servants of God who is faithful and righteous, faithful and fervent in spirit, as well as faithful and responsible. We do not want to be hindered until we cannot be hindered in serving and ministering to God.
After we become faithful and righteous, we will be entrusted with the beautiful tunic, so our life becomes beautiful.
Nevertheless, the beautiful tunic must be dipped in the blood. It means that we must be faithful and willing to sacrifice our time, energy, money, thought, and so on. There is one thing we must not sacrifice, namely the true teaching Word.
It continues until the tunic becomes the clean and bright fine linen or the clothes of the bride to welcome Jesus' second coming. - Being redeemed from sins bringing perdition.
Revelation 14:5
14:5 And in their mouth was found no deceit, for they are without fault before the throne of God.

There are eight sins bring perdition as follows.- Cowardly. It means the fear of something in the world which makes one resist against God.
- Unbelieving.
- Abominable or wicked.
- Murderers. It means envy or hatred.
- Sexually immoral. It includes the sins concerning eating-drinking such as smoking, getting drunk, and drugs abuse, as well as the ones concerning marrying-being given in marriage.
- Sorcerers. It means the fortune-telling and going to shaman.
- Idolaters. The idol means everything which hinders us to love God. It includes the sins.

Exodus 25:8
25:8 "And let them make Me a sanctuary, that I may dwell among them.
In the Old Testament, the house of Israel offered the gold, silver, and clothes for the building of Tabernacle that God might dwell among them.

1 Kings 9:3
9:3 And the LORD said to him: "I have heard your prayer and your supplication that you have made before Me; I have consecrated this house which you have built to put My namethere forever, and My eyesand My heartwill be there perpetually.
Jesus dwells in us as the Head in the following three forms.
- The eyes of the Lord.
It means that He always pays attention to, cares, and struggles for us to preserve and protect us miraculously in the midst of the difficulties in the world.
He preserves our life abundantly. It means that we always give thanks to Him. When we need something, God always provides for us and we can be blessings for other people.
He protects us from all disasters which may come suddenly. The proof that we have the protection of God is the peace in our life. All things become easy and light. - The heart of the Lord or His mercy.
He knows our weakness and infirmities in facing the problems up to the impossible ones. Therefore, He always has mercy to help us right in His time.
Mark 1:40-42
1:40 Now a leper came to Him, imploring Him, kneeling down to Him and saying to Him, "If You are willing, You can make me clean."
1:41 Then Jesus, moved with compassion, stretched out His hand and touched him, and said to him, "I am willing; be cleansed."
1:42 As soon as He had spoken, immediately the leprosy left him, and he was cleansed.
All physical diseases can be cured immediately. The disease in economy, job, study, and so on can also be cured by God.
Luke 7:12-15
7:12 And when He came near the gate of the city, behold, a dead man was being carried out, the only son of his mother; and she was a widow. And a large crowd from the city was with her.
7:13 When the Lord saw her, He had compassion on her and said to her, "Do not weep."
7:14 Then He came and touched the open coffin, and those who carried him stood still. And He said, "Young man, I say to you, arise."
7:15 So he who was dead sat up and began to speak. And He presented him to his mother. - The name of the Lord.
Isaiah 4:1
4:1 And in that day seven women shall take hold of one man, saying, "We will eat our own food and wear our own apparel; Only let us be called by your name, To take away our reproach."
The name of Jesus is able to take away all reproaches of sin, sanctify, and change us until we are as perfect as He is and united with Him forever.
God blesses you.
