God
asks his people to control themselves, to tame their anger Matt 5/22.
The parents have no more right to be angry than the others members of the Community
of Jesus-Christ.
Whoever
makes another person become angry commits a sin. Eph 6/4. We should
behave like God who, for the sake of his Name, defers His Anger Is 48/9.
God is slow to anger and very loving Ps 145/8. It is what a disciple
should be Pro 15/18.
Cain,
the son of the devil, is the first human being to become angry Gn 4/5.
See Cain.
ANDREW.
NT
He
is the brother of Simon Peter. He is one of the twelve Apostles (angels, messengers)
(see angel), of Jesus-Christ. Matt 4/18-19. Mk 1/16-18,29.)
An Apostle of Jesus-Christ is an Apostle who has been ordained as such during
the life of Jesus on the earth. There are other Apostles, and even so today.
The
root meaning of the word angel (mal'ak) is: sent as a delegate. An angel, a
messenger, a delegate, an Apostle.
There
are two sorts of angels, the celestial and the earthly. The celestial angels
are spirits. There are two sorts of spirits. The spirits of God Heb 1/14,
and those who have been sent on earth for a function in the pre-Adamic times
and who have lost their dignity. Jud v. 6. They are fallen and are called
angels of the devil.
And
there are the earthly angels. They are the envoys of God on the earth who have
a body. A child of God is an earthly angel. Any child of God is an angel, an
envoy of God who has the ministry of reconciliation. 2Cor 5/18.
Jacob
saw celestial angels Gn 28/12. Gedeon sees the angel of the Eternal
face to face Judge 6/22. There is an angel of destruction in 2 Sam
24/16. It is an angel who touches Elijah and talks to him 1 Kings 19/5-7.
Daniel sees the angel Gabriel Dan 8/15-16. The angel Michael helps Daniel
Dan 10/13. God sends the angel Gabriel Luke 1/19, 26-27. The
angels of the devil are kept in chains until judgment Jud 6, 2 Peter 2/4.
The
seven angels of Rev 2 and 3 are earthly angels: Paul Rev 2/1.
Ireneus Rev 2/8. Martin Rev 2/12. Colomba Rev 2/18.
Martin Luther Rev 3/1. John Wesley Rev 3/ 7.
Rev 3/14. See Church.
As
a matter of fact, Jesus did not dictate these seven letters to John to be sent
to celestial angels. John was to send them to earthly angels, i.e. to envoys
of God to the seven local churches of this time. These letters also have a prophetic
value for whatever concerns the seven ages of the Church. We are now living
in the age of Laodicea, the age of the spittable church. The humble Bride of
Jesus-Christ should come out of it and be dedicated as was the Church during
the seven ages, i.e. The humble Bride of Christ should conform to the model
of the Church of Jerusalem and become what the Word says it should be.
The
angel (envoy of God) is the envoy of God who says ''come out
of it, my people''.
There
is a hierarchy of angels. A super-angel (an archangel) is manifested at this
time in history to gather the Bride. He talks. This super-angel is the most
important envoy of God. He took the message 'of the given signal', the angel
of Rev 3/14 and he desmonstrates so. When he completes his work, the
sound of the trumpet of God will be heard by the living and dead Bride (who
will then resurrect) and she will be caught up to meet the Lord on the clouds.
1 Thess 4/16 - 17.
ANNA.
N.-T.
Prophetess of the New Testament, of the tribe of Asher. She recognized the redeemer in Jesus. Luke 2/36-38.
ANNAS.
N.-T.
Jesus
was conducted to him after being arrested. Jn 18/13. He was an influent
man in the sanhedrin.
He was actively involved in the prosecution of the Apostles Act 4/3-6.
Spirit,
then character of flesh and blood, who openly or secretly opposes the divine
plan for salvation. 1 Jn 2/18-22; 4/3-6; 2 Jn 1/7.
He
is also called the son of perdition. He is the adversary who stands up above
anything which is from God. 2 Thess 2/1-12.
He seduces The inhabitants of heaven by miracles Rev 13/13-17.
His
number is 666. The calculation of this horrendous being is as follows:
'Vicarius'
means replacement.
The
vicar of Jesus-Christ is the pope. (This is what he claims.)
The
replacement of Jesus-Christ is the pope.
The
substitute of Jesus-Christ is the pope.
The
subtitute-replacement of the son of God is the pope.
When
we look at this coldly, we cannot but feel a deep discomfort. Think of all the
things the popes have done in the name of the Lord Jesus-Christ for centuries!
If
the pope is the faithful representative of Jesus-Christ, we then need to believe
that Jesus has much changed.
I
know that several will label me a simplistic protestant, but what they think
will not deter me from saying loudly that this title of ''VICAR of the son of
God'' is an abomination.
Yet,
as the devil is always doing a work which betrays him, the term Vicar of the
son of God perfectly betrays him. Those with intelligence should just calculate
the number of the beast, the Holy Bible tells us Rev 13/18. I thus suggest
to make a simple calculation: knowing that the Roman ciphers are letters and
ciffers tell The truth.

is also necessary to know that the false church is called ''The Great Babylon''
Rev 14/8, Rev 16/19, Rev 17/5, Rev 18/2, Rev 18/10, Rev 18/21. Well, in
Babel, the name under which Nemrod was hiding was Saturn, i.e. ''God of the
mysteries''. Saturn and mystery are both Chaldean words and are correlative
terms. Mystery means the hidden system and Saturn means the hidden God.
The
God was revealed to the initiates and remained hidden to others. The word Saturn
in Chaldean is pronounced Satur and consists of four letters ''STUR". Those
who have studied Chaldean know that the word STUR contains the apocalyptic number
666.

The
original name of Rome was Saturnia, the city of Saturn. It is what Ovidius,
Pline and Aurelius Victor say. (Strange! isn't it?)
Moreover,
the Book of Revelation tells us that the false church is sitting on seven mountains.
Rome is built on seven hills... Rev 17/9.
And
remember: the Bible invites those who have intelligence to calculate the number
of this disgusting being. Rev 13/18. I tell you: the antechrist is born
and will become more and more popular. See Last Judgment. Babylon.
I
do not claim to present an exhaustive study of this Book. I shall just bring
a Light that the Lord has given us to help us understand where we are in the
history of the world. We are not of those who announce the end of the world
for tomorrow. It is to demonstrate this that those lines are written. This is
written in order to bear witness that we don't belong to the dangerous apocalyptic
cults.
Last
book of the NT. Comes from a Greek word which means 'Revealed', 'Revelation'.
This book reveals who Jesus-Christ is to John while the latter is on the island
of Patmos. He was given the possibility to see ihe history of the true and false
church as well as ihe history of the world until ihe etablishment of the future
world.
Ch.1
to 3 contain the introduction and the prophecy about the seven ages of the Church.
We believe that the Church is now in the age of Laodicea and that the humble
Bride of Christ should come out of all the religious organizations to live what
the trues disciples were living in Jerusalem. This humble Bride will be taken
up before the 144000 Jews are marked with the Seal of God. Rev 7/4-8.
The
first seal. Rev 6/1,
This
concerns the first three ages of the Church Rev 2:1-17. (Ephesus, Smyrna
and Pergamum.) Jesus refers to it in Matt 24/4-5..
The
second seal. Rev 6/3-4 concerns the fourth age of the Church. Rev
2/18-29. (Thyatira.) Jesus refers to it in Matt 24/6.
The
third Seal. Rev 6/5-6 concerns the fifth age of the Church Rev 3/1-6
(Sardis) and Jesus refers to it in Matt 24/7.
The
fourth Seal Rev 6/7-8 concerns the sixth age of the Church (Philadelphia)
and our time, the age of Laodicea Rev 3/7-22 and Jesus refers to it
in Matt 24/9-14.
The
Bride is thus caught up under the fourth seal.
The
fifth Seal. Rev 6/9-11 concerns the Jewish martyrs of the past and future.
There are no more living beings who call.
The
sixth Seal. Rev 6/12-17 covers the last part of the great tribulation,
and the day of the Lord is introduced at the end of this era.
Chronology
of the seven years of the great tribulation.
After
the Bride of Christ is caught up in Glory, the Vatican will make a covenant
with Israel and with the Arab States which are its neighbors. (We already witness
the first signs of this).
Christians
who don't uphold the revealed Word will remain on the earth and will be persecuted
by the anti-Christ and the worldwide super-organization of the false church.
See Antichrist. Last Judgment.
The
ministry of the two witnesses is manifested during three years and a half.
Rev 11/3.
The
144000 Jews who came to faith are gathered on the mount Zion. Rev 14/1.
The
covenant is broken and the two witnesses (see Witnesses, Martyrs) are killed,
resurrected and taken up to heaven, with the whole world watching (television
helps) Rev 11/3-14.
The
great tribulation also starts for the Jews, whereas before, it only concerned
the Christians who had not been taken up. This great tribulation will last three
years and a half. Dan 7/25. Rev 13/5-7.
We
then arrive at a period of seven years between the abduction of the Bride and
the establishment of the Millenium during which Jesus-Christ rules on earth,
the devil being in chains. Rev 20/1-10.
Suppose
that Jesus takes up his Bride at the precise moment where you are reading these
lines; there must be seven more years before Jesus comes to establish his millenium
on earth.
The
creation of a new heaven and new earth would then be in 1007 years. (I do not
prophesy it, it is a counting based on the assumption that Jesus comes back
right now!)
Then
don't listen to the 'prophets' who talk to you about an imminent 'end of the
world'! They lie. They belong to what are called the 'Apocalyptic cults', but
they don't have the Evangelical Revelation of what the Apocalypse says. Any
Evangelical Christian will tell you that the end of the world is not for tomorrow
and that it is not what the junk 'prophets' are saying.
The
seventh Seal consists of:
The
silence in the heaven, Rev 8/1.
The
throne of grace which becomes the throne of the jugement, Rev 8/2-5.
The
first four trumpets of the first four celestial angels which touch the nature.
Rev 8/6-13.
The
horrendous torments of the fifth trumpet Rev 9/1-12. These torments
affect all of mankind.
The
second calamity of the sixth trumpet Rev 9/13-15.
All
these things take place after the abduction of the humble Bride of Jesus-Christ
and after the sealment des 144000 Juifs.
Here,
two intermediate visions take place. Rev 10/1 to 11/14.
And
the seventh angel (Rev 10/7) plays his trumpet. It is the triumph of Jesus-Christ,
the proclamation of the kingdom on earth.
We
thus understand that the angel of Rev 3/14 is not the same as Rev
10/7.)
We
believe that the mystery of God of Rev 10/7 is the same as mentioned
by Paul in his letter to the Colossians 2/2-3, i.e. Christ. Christ is
not a mystery for those to whom He already revealed Himself, but he remains
a mystery for the others and particularly for the Jews.
We
believe that we are experiencing the patience of God 2 Peter 3/9, for
all is completed and Jesus will come back any moment to take His Bride.
The word Apocalypse does not mean catastrophe. The book of Revelation is a source of tremendous joy for those who read it, understand it and keep what is written in there. Rev 1/3.
Apocryphal
books are books which were not gathered in the canon of the Holy Scriptures.
We believe that some are useful, for instance the books of Henoc. The Apostle
Jude quotes a prophecy of one of these books, Jude 14 to 15. This prophecy
is found in 1 Henoc 1/9. We consider that only the Bible is the 'Holy-Word-of-God',
but we do not reject the apocryphal books which we respect as books of valuable
informations.
The
apocryphal books often contain ideas which are not exact. But we believe they
can be useful for those filled with the Holy-Spirit.
This
means to turn away from the Truth.
Israel
was to mind about this, Deut 29/17. If there is no revelation coming
from God, the people perishes. Pro 29/18. In the New Covenant some turn
away from the Truth, already in the first century Gal 1/6. The Apostasy
is now important at this moment of history 2Thess 2/3. To turn away
from the Truth 2Tim 2/18. To have only the outward appearance of piety 2
Tim 3/5. To reject the sound doctrine 2Tim 4/2-4. There are false
teachers 2Peter 2/1. Some deny the only Lord Jude 4. There are
false Apostles Rev 2/2.
The word Apostle, in Greek means envoy or angel. Jesus sent twelve Apostles Luke 6/13. Jn 15/16.
The
true Church is built upon the teaching of the Apostles and prophets Eph 2/20;
4/11.
There
are still apostles nowadays. Eph 4/11.
TREE
OF LIFE.
Tree
of the Garden of Eden and Paradise of God Gn 2/9; Rev 2/7. This
Tree is Jesus-Christ. The tree of the knowledge of Good and Evil is the Devil.
After the fall of Adam and Eve, cherubins with a flaming sword keep the way
to the Tree of life. Gn 3:24. John sees the Tree in the paradise of
God and its leaves serve to cure the nations. Rev 22/2.
