Peace and grace in the love of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Revelation 12:3
12:3. And another sign appeared in heaven: behold, a great, fiery red dragon having seven heads and ten horns, and seven diadems on his heads.
Revelation 12: 3-18 is about the clear and complete appearance of Satan or dragon with his activities on the last days as follows:
Ad.6. Making war or persecuting.
Revelation 12:17-18
12:17 And the dragon was enraged with the woman, and he went to make war with the rest of her offspring, who keep the commandments of God and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.
12:18 Then I stood on the sand of the sea.
Satan or the dragon makes war with or tramples, persecutes, and beheads the rest of her offspring, namely the servants of God who are not evacuated to the wilderness for three and a half years.
Who are they?
But, they do not have the Golden Altar of Incense.
It means as follows:
Consequently, the church or God's servant does not get the life renewal from the fleshly man to the spiritual one like Jesus. This refers to "the rest of her offspring" who are not the godly descent like Jesus. They will be trampled by the dragon or the Antichrist for three and a half years.
Matthew 3:7
3:7 But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to his baptism, he said to them, "Brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the wrath to come?
The other descent refers to the brood of viper. It means the church or God's servant whose characteristics are like the viper. The representative is the Pharisees and the Sadducees.
The teachings of the Pharisees refer to the false teachings which allow the divorce-remarrying.
The teachings of the Sadducees refer to the false teachings saying that there is no resurrection, there is no angel, and there is no spirit or men are ony the blood and flesh.
There is brood of viper from age to age or generation to generation as follows:
God blesses you.
Revelation 12:3
12:3. And another sign appeared in heaven: behold, a great, fiery red dragon having seven heads and ten horns, and seven diadems on his heads.
Revelation 12: 3-18 is about the clear and complete appearance of Satan or dragon with his activities on the last days as follows:
- [Revelation 12:4a] His tail drew a third of the stars of heaven.
- [Revelation 12:4b] Devouring.
- [Revelation 12:7] Fighting.
[Revelation 12: 3-12] It happens when Satan is still able to go to heaven to accuse men and do his three activities. - [Revelation 12:13] Persecuting or catching up fast.
- [Revelation 12:15] Causing the woman or the church of God to be carried away by the flood.
- [Revelation 12:17] Making war or persecuting.
[Revelation 12:13-18] It happens when Satan has been defeated and cast to the earth. He has no place in heaven forever, so he uses his short time before he is bound and destroyed to come down to men, having great wrath in his three activities.
Ad.6. Making war or persecuting.
Revelation 12:17-18
12:17 And the dragon was enraged with the woman, and he went to make war with the rest of her offspring, who keep the commandments of God and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.
12:18 Then I stood on the sand of the sea.
Satan or the dragon makes war with or tramples, persecutes, and beheads the rest of her offspring, namely the servants of God who are not evacuated to the wilderness for three and a half years.
Who are they?
- The servants of God who keep the commandments of God (the Table of Showbread).
- The servants of God who have the testimony of Jesus Christ (the Golden Candlestick).
But, they do not have the Golden Altar of Incense.
It means as follows:
- The church or God's servant who does not want to worship God or he is forced in worshiping God.
- The church or God's servant whose worship has not reached the measurement of God yet, namely the Veil has not been torn yet or the flesh still speaks.
- The church or God's servant that commits the false worship which is encouraged by the false teachings or the worship to the Antichrist.
Consequently, the church or God's servant does not get the life renewal from the fleshly man to the spiritual one like Jesus. This refers to "the rest of her offspring" who are not the godly descent like Jesus. They will be trampled by the dragon or the Antichrist for three and a half years.
Matthew 3:7
3:7 But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to his baptism, he said to them, "Brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the wrath to come?
The other descent refers to the brood of viper. It means the church or God's servant whose characteristics are like the viper. The representative is the Pharisees and the Sadducees.
The teachings of the Pharisees refer to the false teachings which allow the divorce-remarrying.
The teachings of the Sadducees refer to the false teachings saying that there is no resurrection, there is no angel, and there is no spirit or men are ony the blood and flesh.
There is brood of viper from age to age or generation to generation as follows:
- The age of Father Godor the beginning, from Adam to Abraham for about two thousand years.
Genesis 3:1
3:1 Now the serpent was more cunning than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said to the woman, "Has God indeed said, 'You shall not eat of every tree of the garden'?"
The brood of viper refers to the church that has the characteristic of the serpent, namely being cunning without sincerity. The representative is Eve. She had been created as glorious as the Lord, but she could have the characteristic of the serpent because she heard the voice of the serpent or the false teachings which are not in line with the true shepherding Word. The characteristics of the serpent entered her, so she became cunning like the serpent, but there was no sincerity like dove.
The facts found in being cunning like serpent, but without sincerity like dove are as follows:- [Genesis 3:1] Always being doubtful to the Word or having no firm faith because of hearing the Word only with the brain, intelligence, greatness, so the Word only becomes knowledge or it does not become faith in heart.
- Adding or taking away the Word.
Genesis 3:2
3:2 And the woman said to the serpent, "We may eat the fruit of the trees of the garden;
Genesis 2:16
2:16 And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, "Of every tree of the garden you may freelyeat;
Taking away the Word 'freely' means that the Word is without the anointing of Holy Spirit. It means as follows:- There is no revelation of the Word through a verse that explains other verses in the Bible, so the preaching of the Wod is only as the knowledge, physical things, and physical motivation.
- The time is limited according to the logic.
- The content is limited, so there is no sanctification until the pastor and congregation are still bound by sins.
3:3 "but of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God has said, 'You shall not eat it, nor shall you touchit, lest you die.' "
Genesis 2:17
2:17 "but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die."
Adding the Word "touch" means the preaching of the Word which is added with joke, fable, and knowledge. The servant of God touches the emotion of the congregation to make them enthusiastic, so their heart cannot be touched by God and they cannot change.
Taking away and adding the Word is the same as changing the Word of God or the true teaching Word. Consequently, the pastor and the congregation never change, but keep on being the fleshly men who will be trampled. - There is no revelation of the Word through a verse that explains other verses in the Bible, so the preaching of the Wod is only as the knowledge, physical things, and physical motivation.
- Genesis 3:6-7
3:6 So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree desirable to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate. She also gave to her husband with her, and he ate.
3:7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves coverings.
Disobeying the voice of the pastor is the same as rejecting it and hearing the voice of the serpent. The consequence is the nakedness or losing the garments of righteousness, holiness, and glory. It means living in sins, the destruction in marriage and children, losing the sun, moon, and stars, not being evacuated, but being trampled by the Antichrist or worshiping the Antichrist and being destroyed.
- God gave the clothes of the skin of animal for covering the nakedness of Adam and Eve.
Genesis 3:21
3:21 Also for Adam and his wife the LORD God made tunics of skin, and clothed them.
Jesus as the Good Shepherd is willingly stripped until being dead on the cross for giving us the garments of salvation. The proof of receiving the clothes of salvation or righteousness is our believing Jesus, repenting, and being baptized or reborn of water and Holy Spirit, so we get the new life in righteousness. We are not naked anymore. We become the godly descent or the sheep of God. - Jesus as the Good Shepherd gives His soul for shepherding us with the rod of the Shepherd and bringing us to enter the sheepfold or the Holy Place. It refers to the perseverance in doing the three main services to God as follows.
Ezekiel 20:37
20:37 "I will make you pass under the rod, and I will bring you into the bond of the covenant;- The Golden Candlestick or the perseverance in doing the General Service to get the fellowship with Holy Spirit God in the anointing and gifts.
If we persevere in the General Service, our gifts will increase up to the perfect ones someday, namely the garland of twelve stars. - The Table of Showbread, namely the perseverance in doing the Bible Study Service with the Holy Communion to get the fellowship with the Son of God in the true teaching Word and the sacrifice of Christ. We get the redemption or deliverance from sins.
If we persevere in the Bible Study Service and the Holy Communion, we will get the increasing redemption until it is perfect, namely there is no sin and we have the moon under the feet. - The Golden Altar of Incense or the perseverance in doing the Prayer Service to get the fellowship with Father God in His love.
If we persevere in committing the Prayer Service, the love of God will be increasing until being the clothes of the sun or the perfect love. The proof is our loving God more than anything and loving others like we love ourselves.
Revelation 12:1
12:1 Now a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a garland of twelve stars.
The church with the sun, moon, and stars or the light of the world will return to the clothes of righteousness and holiness. We are counted by God to be the apple of His eye and given the two wings of a great eagle for being evacuated to the wilderness for three and a half years, far away from the presence of the serpent. - The Golden Candlestick or the perseverance in doing the General Service to get the fellowship with Holy Spirit God in the anointing and gifts.
- [Genesis 3:1] Always being doubtful to the Word or having no firm faith because of hearing the Word only with the brain, intelligence, greatness, so the Word only becomes knowledge or it does not become faith in heart.
- The age of the Son of Godfrom Abraham to Jesus' first coming for about two thousand years.
Isaiah 27:1-2
27:1 In that day the LORD with His severe sword, great and strong, Will punish Leviathan the fleeing serpent, Leviathan that twisted serpent; And He will slay the reptile that is in the sea.
27:2 In that day sing to her, "A vineyard of red wine!
The representative is the beautiful vineyard or the church that blooms, produces the sweet fruits, or has the life renewal.
The serpent makes the beautiful vineyard not beautiful anymore. It means not blooming and not producing fruits.
John 15:1-5
15:1 "I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser.
15:2 "Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit.
15:3 "You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you.
15:4 "Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me.
15:5 "I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.
It means as follows:- Being unclean, dirty, or unholy. It starts from the heart.
Matthew 15:19
15:19 "For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies.
The heart is controlled by the evil, unclean, and bitter lusts. If the heart is dirty, the clothes will be dirty too. It means that the deeds become dirty.
Zechariah 3:3
3:3 Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and was standing before the Angel.
Ephesians 4:29
4:29 Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but what is good for necessary edification, that it may impart grace to the hearers.
It continues until the words are dirty too in the lies, slanders, and blasphemies to the righteous, God, and true teachings. - Not being faithful in the shepherding, service and ministry to God, as well as the marriage.
Neither being holy nor faithful is the same as a branch that does not abide in the true vine or the true teaching anymore. It means not being shepherded. Consequently, there is dryness.
John 15:1-6
15:1 "I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser.
15:2 "Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit.
15:3 "You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you.
15:4 "Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me.
15:5 "I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.
15:6 "If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned.
Being dry, not blooming, and not producing fruits, one will enter the conspiracy which is without the true teaching Word until being trampled by the dragon and burnt in fire or being the same as the Antichrist.
27:1 In that day the LORD with His severe sword, great and strong, Will punish Leviathan the fleeing serpent, Leviathan that twisted serpent; And He will slay the reptile that is in the sea.
The solution is receiving the Bride Tdings or the true teaching Word which is sharper than any two-edged sword, repeated, and flaming for sanctifying our dirty heart, deeds, and words, so we can have the holy heart, deeds, and words or live in holiness.
If we are holy and faithful, we will be sanctified continually until we can bloom or get the ministry and gifts of Holy Spirit for being used in the ministry of the edification of the body of Christ. We can produce the fruits, namely the perfect one or the bride who is without blemish like the sun, moon, and stars. There is no darkness anymore, but perfection. - Being unclean, dirty, or unholy. It starts from the heart.
- The last age from Jesus' first coming for about two thousand years. Now, we are in 2021 as the longsuffering of God.
Acts 1:16-18
1:16 "Men and brethren, this Scripture had to be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit spoke before by the mouth of David concerning Judas, who became a guide to those who arrested Jesus;
1:17 "for he was numbered with us and obtained a part in this ministry."
1:18 (Now this man purchased a field with the wages of iniquity; and falling headlong, he burst open in the middle and all his entrails gushed out.
Judas Iscariot had the characteristics of the serpent, so he fell headlong.
It means being like a serpent or looking at the ground, embracing the earth, and making God behind.
The facts found in it are as follows:- Looking for money in illegal ways.
- Not being faithful in the service and ministry to God because of looking for money.
- Serving and ministering to God but only for seeking for physical things, not God or the true teaching Word.
- Being stingy (not being able to give) and greedy (stealing the possession of God and others), worshiping the Antichrist, or the false worship.
Acts 22:25
22:25 And as they bound him with thongs, Paul said to the centurion who stood by, "Is it lawful for you to scourge a man who is a Roman, and uncondemned?"
The solution is the recumbent position or making the world behind us. It means that we are not bound by the world. We only look at and rely on God. The proof is willingly suffering in the flesh because of God or without sins. It refers to the sprinkling of blood. As a result, there is Shekinah glory or the ministry of the High Priest who brings the blood and incense.
The facts found in the sprinkling of blood are as follows:- The right fasting.
Isaiah 58:2-8
58:2 Yet they seek Me daily, And delight to know My ways, As a nation that did righteousness, And did not forsake the ordinance of their God. They ask of Me the ordinances of justice; They take delight in approaching God.
58:3 'Why have we fasted,' they say, 'and You have not seen? Why have we afflicted our souls, and You take no notice?' "In fact, in the day of your fast you find pleasure, And exploit all your laborers.
58:4 Indeed you fast for strife and debate, And to strike with the fist of wickedness. You will not fast as you do this day, To make your voice heard on high.
58:5 Is it a fast that I have chosen, A day for a man to afflict his soul? Is it to bow down his head like a bulrush, And to spread out sackcloth and ashes? Would you call this a fast, And an acceptable day to the LORD?
58:6 "Is this not the fast that I have chosen: To loose the bonds of wickedness, To undo the heavy burdens, To let the oppressed go free, And that you break every yoke?
58:7 Is it not to share your bread with the hungry, And that you bring to your house the poor who are cast out; When you see the naked, that you cover him, And not hide yourself from your own flesh?
58:8 Then your light shall break forth like the morning, Your healing shall spring forth speedily, And your righteousness shall go before you; The glory of the LORD shall be your rear guard.
Fasting refers to the process to accelerate the tearing of flesh with all characteristics of viper, so there are the spiritual characteristics. We can receive the perfect love of God. We can love God more than anything and obey Him until the flesh does not speak anymore. We can love others like we love ourselves until we can love the enemy or repay good for evil. - Facing the fiery flame of persecution, suffering in the flesh, and the insult because of the name of Jesus for changing us from the brood of viper to the godly descent that is perfect like Jesus.
1 Peter 4:12-14
4:12 Beloved, do not think it strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened to you;
4:13 but rejoice to the extent that you partake of Christ's sufferings, that when His glory is revealed, you may also be glad with exceeding joy.
4:14 If you are reproached for the name of Christ, blessed are you, for the Spirit of glory and of God rests upon you. On their part He is blasphemed, but on your part He is glorified.
Colossians 3:10-17
3:10 and have put on the new man who is renewed in knowledge according to the image of Him who created him,
3:11 where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcised nor uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave nor free, but Christ is all and in all.
3:12 Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, put on tender mercies, kindness, humility, meekness, longsuffering;
3:13 bearing with one another, and forgiving one another, if anyone has a complaint against another; even as Christ forgave you, so you also must do.
3:14 But above all these things put on love, which is the bond of perfection.
3:15 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful.
3:16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
3:17 And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him.
The appearances of the new man are as follows:- [Colossians 3:15] Living in peace or there are no more worry, evil, and uncleanness.
- [Colossians 3:16] The deeds and words are holy and able to be accounted for before God, become blessings for others, and always give thanks to Him.
Psalm 136:1-2
136:1 Oh, give thanks to the LORD, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever.
136:2 Oh, give thanks to the God of gods! For His mercy endures forever.
When do we always give thanks?
We always give thanks when we remember and appreciate the mercy and goodness of God.
One who does not appreciate the sacrifice of Christ always murmurs, gossips, and so on.
Numbers 14:29
14:29 'The carcasses of you who have complained against Me shall fall in this wilderness, all of you who were numbered, according to your entire number, from twenty years old and above.
Murmuring, one will be the carcass and not enter Canaan.
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."
Mark 15:27-28
15:27 With Him they also crucified two robbers, one on His right and the other on His left.
15:28 So the Scripture was fulfilled which says, "And He was numbered with the transgressors."
Jesus willingly becomes the carcass on the cross so that we, the carcass that should have perished, can get the mercy and goodness of God through His sacrifice.
Therefore, as long as we appreciate the sacrifice of Christ who has become the carcass, we must consume the carcass, namely the Holy Communion and always give thanks and worship God. We stretch out our hands to God and He stretches out His hands of mercy and goodness or the key of David to all of us.
As a result, God alone does the great wonders.
Psalm 136:2-4
136:2 Oh, give thanks to the God of gods! For His mercy endures forever.
136:3 Oh, give thanks to the Lord of lords! For His mercy endures forever:
136:4 To Him who alone does great wonders, For His mercy endures forever;
"Alone" means that we must not hope others. We must not be hopeless. God will open the doors for us and we have the beautiful successful future life. It continues until Jesus comes a second time that the last miracle happens, namely we are changed to be as perfect and glorious as He is. We do not stumble in words. We return to the first creation and shout for joy saying "Alleluia" welcoming Jesus' second coming on the glorious clouds to be with Him forever.
- [Colossians 3:15] Living in peace or there are no more worry, evil, and uncleanness.
- Looking for money in illegal ways.
God blesses you.
