Revelation 19:15

Jesus comes a second time in the glory of the High Priest.
Out of His mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it He should strike the nations or the Gentiles.
Our attitude to the sword of the Word or the Bride Tidings determines our life.
Exodus 32:27-28
32:27. And he said to them, "Thus says the LORD God of Israel: 'Let every man put his sword on his side, and go in and out from entrance to entrance throughout the camp, and let every man kill his brother, every man his companion, and every man his neighbor.' "
32:28. So the sons of Levi did according to the word of Moses. And about three thousandmen of the people fell that day.
The positive attitude is putting the sword on our side. It means hearing and obeying the Word. As a result, we will experience the purification up to the number 3000, namely 2000--the Holy Place--is added with 1000--the Most Holy Place. We become the church of God who is holy up to perfection. It is the same as siding with God or the true teaching.
The negative attitude is rejecting the sword of the Word, so it becomes the one of punishment [Revelation 19:15].
The facts found in it are as follows:
Acts 2:13-15,41-42
2:13. Others mocking said, "They are full of new wine."
2:14. But Peter, standing up with the eleven, raised his voice and said to them, "Men of Judea and all who dwell in Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and heed my words.

3:4. and saying, "Where is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation."
3:5. For this they willfully forget: that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of water and in the water,
3:6. by which the world that then existed perished, being flooded with water.
On the last days, there are many people who mock the Word that reveals Jesus' second coming and His punishment. They just follow their lust, so they are like the people in the days of Noah.
Luke 17:26-27
17:26. "And as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be also in the days of the Son of Man:
17:27. "They ate, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all.
Men committed sins of eating-drinking and marrying-giving in marriage, so they were destroyed with the floods. It will happen again on the last days, so men are destroyed with the fire and brimstone up to the hell.
We must imitate Noah and his family, so we are not punished by God. It is as follows:
God blesses us.
Peace and grace in the love of our Lord Jesus Christ.

The negative attitude is rejecting the sword of the Word, so it becomes the one of punishment [Revelation 19:15].

- The golden calf. It refers to the hardness of the heart, namely one rejects the teaching Word, so he is unrestrained. It means not being shepherded.
- The Dagon. It refers to the foolish heart and being in futility of mind, namely one rejects the true teaching Word, but just hears joke et cetera.
- The idols of heart and mind have overflown to become sarcasm and ridicule up the sinful deed.

17:26. "And as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be also in the days of the Son of Man:
17:27. "They ate, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all.

We must imitate Noah and his family, so we are not punished by God. It is as follows:
- We must enter Noah's ark. It means as follows:
- Entering the true water baptism.
1 Peter 3:20-21
3:20. who formerly were disobedient, when once the Divine longsuffering waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was being prepared, in which a few, that is, eight souls, were saved through water.
3:21. There is also an antitype which now saves us--baptism(not the removal of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God), through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,
One who has believed in Jesus and died to sin or repented must be buried in the water with Jesus and come out or rise from water with Him to receive new life or the heavenly ones--the heavens are opened--, namely the heart that tends to do evil and uncleanness continually is changed to become a good conscience, namely obedience to the sword of the Word. - Being shepherded well and correctly.
Noah's ark is the same as the Tabernacle.
Genesis 6:16
6:16. "You shall make a window for the ark, and you shall finish it to a cubit from above; and set the door of the ark in its side. You shall make it with lower, second, and third decks.
Noah's ark had three levels. The Tabernacle had three rooms.
Genesis 6:14
6:14. " Make yourself an ark of gopherwood; make rooms in the ark, and cover it inside and outside with pitch.
Exodus 25:8

Acts 2:41-42
2:41. Then those who gladly received his word were baptized; and that day about three thousand souls were added to them.
2:42. And they continued steadfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in prayers.
After being baptized--entering Noah's ark--we must enter the Tabernacle--Noah's ark--, namely the Holy Place--the number 2000 (20 * 10 *10). It refers to the sheepfold, namely the perseverance in committing the three kinds of main service to God.
So, entering Noah's ark means that we are shepherded well and correctly, so our body, soul, and spirit attach to the trinity of God like a branch that abides in the true vine. As a result, we cannot be touched or fallen by the trinity of Satan. We cannot be deceived by the false teaching, but we experience the purification continuously, so we live in holiness.
Exodus 29:1
29:1. "And this is what you shall do to them to hallow them for ministering to Me as priests: Take one young bull and two rams without blemish,
If we are holy, we will be appointed as the priests and kings. We are equipped with the ministry and Holy Spirit's gift to be used in the revival of Holy Spirit in the last rain or the building of the body of Christ.
As a result, we bear sweet fruits sooner or later.
- Entering the true water baptism.
- We must live in the hands of God.
Genesis 7:16
7:16. So those that entered, male and female of all flesh, went in as God had commanded him; and the LORD shut him in.
It means that we must experience the ministry of reconciliation of the High Priest. It means entering through the veil or experiencing the tearing of the flesh to enter the Most Holy Place--the number 1000 (10 * 10 *10)
The ministry of reconciliation of the High Priest is signified by the things as follows:- The incense that refers to the intercession prayer.
1 John 2:1-2
2:1. My little children, these things I write to you, so that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.
2:2. And He Himself is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the whole world.
In heaven, Jesus as the High Priest lifts up the intercession prayer, so we do not fall into sin. Hardening the heart until falling in sins, one can be lifted up still.
Hebrews 13:17
13:17. Obey those who rule over you, and be submissive, for they watch out for your souls, as those who must give account. Let them do so with joy and not with grief, for that would be unprofitable for you.
In the world, a shepherd lifts up the intercession prayer for the salvation of soul of the congregation. If we become obedient, there will be the curtain of protection, otherwise it will be opened.
The result of being shepherded and obedient is that the hands of the Great Shepherd lift us up and a shepherd upholds us, so we will not be fallen and deceived. Falling into sin, we are still able to be lifted up. - The blood that refers to the sprinkle of blood.
Matthew 5:23-25
5:23. "Therefore if you bring your gift to the altar, and there remember that your brother has something against you,
5:24. "leave your gift there before the altar, and go your way. First be reconciled to your brother, and then come and offer your gift.
5:25. "Agree with your adversary quickly, while you are on the way with him, lest your adversary deliver you to the judge, the judge hand you over to the officer, and you be thrown into prison.
We must be reconciled to our brother. It means realizing, regretting, and confessing our sin to God and others with the encouragement of the teaching Word. Do not sin anymore after being forgiven! We can forgive others' sin and forget it. As a result, Jesus' blood washes our sin up to there is no remnant of our sin as if we had never sinned.
1 John 3:21-22
3:21. Beloved, if our heart does not condemn us, we have confidence toward God.
3:22. And whatever we ask we receive from Him, because we keep His commandments and do those things that are pleasing in His sight.
Our heart becomes good and calm. Our heart does not condemn us, and we do not condemn others, so we have confidence toward God. We pray to God, and He will stretch out His hands, so we live in His hands.
Genesis 7:16
7:16. So those that entered, male and female of all flesh, went in as God had commanded him; and the LORD shut him in.
God's hand shut Noah's ark, so the floods did not get in. It means that God's hand is able to protect and take care of us in the midst of the difficulties or crises of the world physically and spiritually. We keep living in righteousness and holiness. We keep being faithful and fervent in the ministry. We keep holding fast the true teaching Word. We are on the side of God.
God's hand opened the gate of ark. It means giving the way out. God finishes all of impossible problems. God gives the beautiful and successful future. God purifies and changes us up to purification. The doors of the marriage supper of the Lamb of God, Paradise, and heaven are opened.
