The Only True God (The Holy Father)

     Let’s go to page 35 chapter 2 learn in chapter 1 we made up our minds to get to know God and become friends with him, and if we want to become friends with him then we should know them well so does God our Father who is he and what does he look like what is his heart and what is his character? We will learn about that this hour, when Jesus came two thousand years ago if he had just anytime or opportunity whether he was on the street or on the road or any where else he would always tell the disciples all those who are listening to him how much God the Father love them all. So whether not the people who where listening where Christians believe in God or not all he did was to share to them how much our Heavenly Father love all the children in this earth and that’s why so many people especially the disciples they only learn all about the fearful and scary God after meeting Jesus they began to love God and they wanted to see God and they wanted to ask him why he love us so much and so one time Phillip ask, “Lord Jesus, show us the Father? So until now they only learn that God was the fearful God, he was the God of Judgment but after Jesus came down to this earth and explain to them who God was, and that God was the real Father who begot us and in every work from the mouth of Jesus showing them how much they love them they are filled with so such love, that Philip ask Jesus to show the Father, I want to meet the Father and so Jesus said the Father he is like me, if you live holy now the day will come when you will be able to see him face to face, then what is the face our Father

(1) The Outward Appearance of Our Heavenly Father

* Our Father has His head and hair 

[I watched... and the hair of His head was like pure wool] (Dan. 7:9). 

* He has a face 

[His servants shall serve Him] and [They shall see His face] (Rev. 22: 3, 4). 

[Now we see ... dimly, but then face to face] (1 Cor. 13:12). 

* He has a back 

[You shall see My back; but My face shall not be seen] (Exodus 33:23). 

[He who has seen Me has seen the Father] (John 14:9).

[I and my Father are one] (John 10:30).

* He has vocal cords and speaks 

[the voice of the Lord] (1 Sam. 15:22) 

* He has eyes and pupils 

[the eyes of the Lord] (Pro. 15:3). 

[as the apple of His eye] (Deut. 32:10) 

* He has a nose 

[There are a smoke in My nostrils] (Isa. 65:5). 

* He has a mouth and lips and speaks with them 

[the mouth of God] (Matt. 4:4). 

[My lips] (Ps. 89:34).

[Every word that proceeds from the mouth of the Lord] 

(Deut. 8:3). 

* He has ears 

[His ear] (Isa. 59:1) 

[You will cause Your ear to hear] (Ps. 10:17). 

* He has arms 

[My arm] (Ps. 89:21). 

[Your outstretched arm] (1 Kings 8:42).

[The Lord's arm] (Num. 11:23).

* He has hands and fingers 

[Your fingers] ( Ps. 8:3). 

[Has My hand not made all these things?] (Acts 7:50). 

* He has legs 

[Almighty God ... His thigh] (Rev. 19:15, 16). 

* He has feet 

[earth is My footstool] (Acts 7:49). 

[Your feet] (Ps. 74:3). 

* He is clothed in garment 

[His garment was white as snow] (Dan. 7:9). 

[He ... was like a jasper and a sardius stone in appearance] (Rev. 4:3). 

[dwelling in unapproachable light (garment)] (1 Tim.6:16). 

So who is God like, isn’t God like Jesus? Isn’t he like us? So we can be considered his sons and daughters Jesus just as he has face, mouth, nose, eyes, hands, arms, legs, feet, just like us our Father is the same but he is covered in light so that not anyone can see him so now do you know who we are like and why we are born like the way we are do you or not? Has you ever learn this before in the world right now in the world they have made God into someone who we cannot become close to, but we have to go close to him and we have to meet him we have to walk with him hand in hand. You got to have this living experience and you have to walk and live with him. It’s just not our religion but it is our life there is no way for us to act holy or always –6:36----- we should naturally walk with our Father and we should talk with him and we shall walk to heaven this is our happy life and this is what we call religious life why does religion seem to be such a burden we are beginning a happy life. So Jesus said, “Have I not been with you for so long that you cannot recognize me? He who sees me has seen the Father so who show us the Father I and the Father are I one. During the ten days seminar before you may felt so afraid of God and his eyes seems so scare but all that will disappear and now he will come to you as a real Father, so kind and gentle and you will be able to accept him and at that time you may want to see God like Phillip. And if you cannot bear to be patient, look the person next to you our Father kind look like that doesn’t he? If you look at the person next to you oh our God is so good looking can you think that way? Ah not really perhaps, what if really God looks like that person what happens if really God looks like that person next to me? What God look like that Teacher Myung Ho Park, right now I am 50 when I look at my picture when I was in the army 30 years ago, I can’t even recognize my own self. I guess my teeth are the same everything else is seems different it is very strange at that time I didn’t even wear glasses even though 30 years had passed somewhat our face is change and you cannot even tell then we left our Real Daddy we are not able to eat the fruit or drink the water of life already so many thousands of years do you think we would look like our Father any longer? You can’t even tell that we look like him any longer, it’s a miracle that we are even alive and breathing you know when we go to heaven we all have to be grow two and half up to three time taller than we are now, right now we are degenerated we become short right now we are just so short and so we go to heaven and we drink the water and eat the fruit of life we will grow two and half to three times taller than we are now. The original height and that time everything will be restored. Right now we are one third of our normal height we are like dwarfs because we ate things that we should not have eaten. And if you go to Africa there are people there known as pygmies there are some that even 57 cm. there are some that even a 150 cm. those who are a 150 cm. tall all they can talk and they can listen but those who are 57 cm. they have no language they can’t even think properly they have no salvation. Why no matter how much you gave them God’s word they can’t understand it. There is no way for them to understand. That’s why heaven has given up on them one time a missionary  went there and saw this 57 cm. people about two feet tall he was walking on the forest and he saw this short people and they are all running away all of a sudden, but they one pygmy you know missionary from Europe and America sometimes they are even more than 6 feet tall so they are very, very, any they are so tall that this 57 cm. this less than  2 foot pygmy become so scared but he couldn’t run because he become so scared.  So what he did was in this------11:30--- he start digging the ground even in this ground he stacked his face in the ground and his feet were dangling in the air ah who is this so this missionary came and pick this pygmy but this pygmy couldn’t  say anything and instead it’s trying to wiggle like some fish that was caught and this man look it was a person and this missionary was completely shock if you at him it’s a person but there is where the pygmies are living but heaven cannot take them that cannot be taken to heaven why? They have no judgment, they have no thinking, they have no language, they just live according to instinct like animals they build there house on trees because if they build it on the ground they will be eaten by the animals and they live in the trees and when they are hungry they come down from the trees and crawl on the trees and eat bugs and when they are full they back up and sleep and when they are hungry they come back down, this is what they do all day long they have no salvation. Second generation pygmies, are those who are a 150 cm. about 5 ft. tall and then they other third generation pygmies are us. Let us not forget that we are the third generation pygmies. And because we are pygmies no matter how much the real thing the truth is given to you say Amen, amen, and then during the resting period you just forget you only sit here and then after eating breakfast or lunch you forget when you go back and when you come back you forget. You will look over there and then you will forget. You must be wide awake and say God please give this pygmy wisdom and understanding that I would be able to understand the truth --------13:36------this is God’s voice, I hope that you will pray like this. If we are a little bit more degenerated we also, may not be able been saved I hope you will know that you are barely saved I hope that you will listen very, very carefully. There is children’s bible story a ten volume bible story and it has this color pictures that are drawn paintings and out of all the people there the most beautiful is Adam and Eve. When we go to heaven when we meet Adam and Eve I’m sure they will all look ten times a hundred time more beautiful than in the ----14:21--- why? Because this pygmies draw this pictures what if we really see them in person why do you think they would be so beautiful and handsome  So how much more good looking must our Father be, our is the best looking in this universe we left our Father for thousands of years we did drink the water of life or eat the fruit the life for thousands of years and though our Jesus called us but the food that we eat on this earth is like the food of animals though we become so degenerated we barely see that we have to wear glasses we can’t even hear we became blind and deaf too, all was completely blind and deaf. How pitiful we have become we who are Gods should have fly throughout the universe some while walking they sprain their ankle or they even break their ankle then now can you brag to everyone that our Father in Heaven is so good looking? Then what kind of part does he have is he such a scary God as they say in the world who only likes to judge, let’s learn of his Inner heart.

[Most assuredly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of His own accord, but only what He sees the Father do; for whatever He does, the Son does likewise] (John 5: 19). 

He is a diligent Father. Churches today think that God has merely sitting on His throne without doing anything and demands worship and glory from men and angels, as if He were thirsty for glory and worship and worship like king  Jinsi in Chinese history. He does not want glory and worship at all.

Even if the entire churches of the world do not give glory and worship, there are trillions of His own children in the universe. He does no desire worship and glory from men merely sitting on His throne; He is a diligent Father of ours. He is the best Worker, Laborer in the universe. We will learn about that couple of days later.

Look at the sky. Who made that? Don’t you see traces of His labor? Look at the mountains, plains, the world, and the sea. Who made them all? They are traces of our Father’s labor. All flowers in gardens, mountains, and valleys; our Father worked so hard to plant them all. He is our diligent Father who has been working so hard ever since the beginning. He works so hard. Even for a single child of His He works as hard as His hands are worn out. Those sky, mountains, plains… Have our ancestors made them? They all display traces of our Father’s labor. And how come people regard His as a greedy tyrant who merely demands worship and glory on His throne? Please don’t be fooled by fake doctrines.

God is not that all. He is a tender Father who works hard day and night for the happiness of His children. And as His efforts are not recognized by them, He sobs, sighs, and weeps. Let us accept His love.

So let’s read from the middle of page 42.

(M20) “Since He possesses affection just as we do, He loves one whom He loves, hates one whom He hates. When His love is rejected by His earthly children whom He pursued with one-sided love, He gets disappointed and become jealous behind their back. It is because He loves them too much: if He did not love them, He would not become jealous. Therefore His jealousy is an expression of His ardent love for them. And He feels happy at the sight of happiness, laughs at the sight of fun. He becomes sad at the sight of sorrow, sheds at the sight of greater sorrow, and wails as He sees something even more woeful.”

Let’s read next by turns.

(F19) “He is so compassionate and loving that when He sees pitiful men, He is touched with pity, and would give away everything to comfort them. But He hates and is displeased with those who keep doing things loathsome. When we do something bad, He gets angry with us and as we do worse deeds He become indignant. As we do unbearable things, He arises up to give severe punishment and reprimand.

But if we, though sinful, return and ask for pardon, He changes His mind, and forgives us completely, and never remembers our past. And He restores His peace of mind right away. He is so honest as much as He loathes dishonestly Himself, and faithful, truthful. Therefore even at the risk of His throne and His name, He never changes His promise but always fulfills it.

He repays the good, and the wicked according to what they have done even more perfectly and accurately than a computer or a calculator can, Home-Head of our universal family who is at unceasing work for all His creations, especially for the good of His children, with an effort incomparable to sacrifices and services of any earthly parents for their children. Should we not forget this fact and be thankful for so amazing grace of our Father?”

(M21) “Because He is also an emotional Father Just as we are, He speaks to us as follows, ‘I love Me, and those who seek Me diligently shall find Me.’ (Pro. 8:17) ‘Those who honor Me I will honor, and those who despise Me shall be lightly esteemed.” (1 Sam. 2:30).

Yes. Do you also love those who love you? Do you honor those who honor you? Do you disregard those who despise you? God is the same. If you truly want to be noble children of heaven, honor God and try to exalt Him.

If anybody tries to tread others down to exalt himself, he is trodden down and lowered. I hope you exalt God. If we glorify God, the whole world cannot put us into shame; they are put into shame themselves. Next.

(M22) “I will show Myself holy among those who are near Me, and before all the people I will be glorified. (Lev. 10:3). Therefore I will look with favor on the faithful in the land, which they may dwell with Me; he who walks in the way that is blameless shall minister to Me.” (Ps. 101:6).

Yes. God is glorified by those who come close to Him: that’s how we are to give glory to Him. To closely follow Him does not mean to carry the Bible all the time or to give speeches all the time, but to have God’s character most.

(F20) “Azariah also exclaims, ‘Hear Me…all the Judah…the Lord is with you, while you are with Him. If you seek Him, He will be found by you, but if you forsake Him, He will forsake you’ (2 Chro. 15:2). Elder James also said, ‘Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you’ (James 4:8).”

Yes. If you seek God, He also comes out to seek you; if you seek Him earnestly, what does He do? He is found by you. I hope you ask Him for a date with you. He said, “If you ask Him for a date with you. He said, “If you draw near Me, I will draw near you.”

And Solomon said also, “If you exalt Him, He will exalt you.” I hope you exalt God your Father. Then the Father will also exalt you high as the highest sons and daughters of heaven. Nest what did Jesus say?

(F21) “Jesus said, ‘If God is glorified in Him, God will also glorify him immediately.” (John 13:32).

Yes. Jesus who knew the inner heart of God most said, “If God is glorified in you, the Father will also glorify you in Himself, and glorify you how? Immediately. Without delay. No matter how humble, young or weak child give glory to Him, He repays him with courtesy and good manners; He is a gentle Father. He is not arrogant and indifferent but humble, tender and gentle.

When I was a little boy I happened to visit a Buddhist temple with my mother, and saw very old Buddhists keep bowing down to Buddha for so long. As I went there next time, they were doing the same thing again.

“Mom, why do they bow like that every day?”

“Oh, even though they bow a thousand times, the Buddha receives it as if they had done that just once; that’s why however many times they do that, it’s not considered so many.”

Isn’t the God of today’s Christian world the same, who hardly forgives them, once if they beg, pardon scores of or hundreds of times, and still, keeps looking for their faults? Trying to uncover their past sins? Our Father is not that kind of God. If we try to bow to Him like that, He will quickly prevent us saying, “No, dear, what if you get a backache!”

If you glorify God, He will also glorify you before the universe. The reason why churches today are easily put to shame is because they glorify not God but Satan. Churches are supposed to be eldest sons of the universe who are exalted above all countries and people with bright faces wherever they go.

Is it not there is one phoenix among a thousand chickens? They are supposed to be God’s noble sons who carry His character and glory in their countenance just like a phoenix in the midst of chickens.

True religion is to be connected with each other with love. Fake religion gives one-sided love with no return or response. If there had been a return, those Christians might have been transformed into God’s image already. Let us enjoy practical relationship with God. Let’s read the next.

(M23) “Therefore I hope every family member shares love and friendship with our heavenly Father, which the world has no knowledge of, by giving full glory to each other. Now we can see that His Heart and character are not different from ours, and that He made us in perfect accordance with Him not only in His image but also in His character, as He said, “Let us make man in Our image, after Our likeness. (Gen. 1:26). If there is any difference, it is that in His heart there is no sin, no evil, and no untruthfulness; and that from the deep of His heart springs forth the fountain of love sinners can not possess or compare with anything. This love is His life and light. If He could be robbed of that love which is His life and light, He would be reduced to nothingness and His life would disappear. His whole self is love. (1 John 4:16)

Yes. When He gave birth to us in the beginning He made us just like Himself with not only His image but His character also: therefore we were born as His real sons and daughters with the same dispositions as His, who feel happy at the sight of happiness and laugh at the sight of fun and cry at the sigh of sorrow. His whole self is love. Our Father’s life is love. So, please repeat after me.

“Love is God’s life.”

““Love is God’s light.”

His whole self is love in other words. He is the source of all love in the universe; he is a lump of love. If he could be robbed of His love, He would be dead. He would turn nothing and dead. His whole self is love, Love is His life. Please read on.

(F22) “He is the source of all love in the universe; He is a bundle of love. To rob Him His love is like removing intensely burning light and heat from the rays of the sun in the midsummer; if it could be done so, not only He himself but the whole universe would become pitch-dark and cold; everything would fall desolate. But for the burning rays of love extending out unceasingly from Him, the universe could not exist; and it is easier and more reasonable for fishes to survive out of water than for the children of men to live without the sun-ray of His love, the light of grace, or for any other worlds in the universe to live without the sun of love springing form Him unceasingly.”

Yes. The entire universe is sustained by the sun-ray of His love every passing moment whether we love Him or not. If the sun-ray of God could be taken away from Him at any moments, the entire universe would turn into pitch-black darkness and be destroyed. That’s why the whole universe cannot exist a single moment apart from our Father.

That’s why the first condition for salvation is to accept God. And then Jesus Christ. Shall I tell you one more thing offensive to your ears? There is no God in the Christian world today. Even if thousands or millions of people assemble there, there is no God with them. You may get offended? There is no God. I speak nothing but truth. Why is there is no God then? I’ll give you evidence.

The life of the sun is light. Is that right? So, the sun and the light cannot stay apart from each other. They remain together. Is that right? Light and the sun share inseparable relationship with each other. God’s life is love. Love is God’s light. So, where is God, love cannot be absent, and where is love, God cannot be absent.

Is there love in churches today? Do you truly believe there is no God in those churches who always fight with other churches, with pastors and elders? If there were God with them, His love would overflow from them like rivers of water and the ocean. If there is love, there must be God there in other words. So, if there is no love in a church, it tells there is no God there. I hope you find out and accept the true God of love here and bring Him to those churches where is no God, so that they can be saved with you together. Let’s read the next.

(M24) “Another difference that He has from the children of earth is…

“Since you readers…”

(M25) “Now, since you readers have learned well about His heart and character, I hope you become His loving sons and daughters who, from now on, render obedience to Him who is love Himself, whose life is love, and whose entirety is love, submitting not for fear of His judgment or punishment but for fear of making Him sad, sigh and cry, and weep for you. And as He  has promised, planned, and desired, He will send His Son at His exact preplanned time and date to bring us back to His everlasting holy city, to live with us forever as He did to Enoch our elder brother, and we shall possess the kingdom forever, forever and ever.’ (Dan. 1:18). Amen. Praise the Lord!”

So far we have attended church and obeyed God for fear of being thrown into fire of brimstone or into a fire of hell, of losing eternal life and the heavenly paradise. But that’s not obedience at all. That’s bondage, slavish life. That kind of religion does not give salvation.

But as we found our Father’s heart, we became His good sons and daughters who obey perfectly Him for fear of making Him sad, sigh, and shed tears if we don’t go to heaven. I hope you and I all become His obedient children by knowing His deep heart, sharing inseparable relationship with Him and living with Him in heaven forever.

After singing the Song No.242 may anybody pray? Let’s sing the 3^rd stanza twice.

This Is Eternal Life

[I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven]9Matt. 16:19

What shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?](Mark 10:17)

"What must I do to enter heaven where there is no death?"

This has been the unceasing questions of all the people throughout all ages who [through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage](Heb.2:15]. In reality, it is an even more pressing question to us in these last days. Then, how many people throughout the ages have actually found the definite answer to this question and obtained eternal life? Through the Bible, we are plainly assured of the heart aching fact that in contrast to the thousands of millions of people in all ages who have asked this question, deplorably few have found the answer, with all the rest having died without hope.

To give a clear answer to this question, [What shall I do that I may inherit eternal life])Mark 10:17), is the unique purpose and mission of this book.

When we become subject to the power of death without hope due to our fall by the transgression which we had brought upon ourselves, our infinitely compassionate Father [loved the world (sinners) so much that His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life] (john 3:16). We well know that it was to give eternal life to us sinners that God made His Son [who knew no sin to be sin] (2cor. 5:21). Then, "What is eternal life and on what conditions can be gained" become the most important questions.

1. The Keys of the Kingdom of Heaven (Matt. 16:19)

In the Bible, there are plainly revealed two ways and methods for eternal life: the first one is in John 3:16 as mentioned previously, that [God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him (Jesus) should not perish but have everlasting life.] Jesus also made clear this first way and method by saying, [You search the Scriptures, for in them you think you have eternal life; and these are they which testify of me] (John 5:39).

[And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that everyone who sees the Son and believes in Him may have everlasting life] (John 6:40). This is the first way and method for eternal life.

Jesus teaches us the second way, [Most assuredly, I say to you, he who hears My word and believes in Him who sent Me has everlasting life; and...has passed from death into life] (John 5:24). Now we see clearly that there are only two ways and methods for eternal life, and are simple and easy. These two formula are combined together in one place - in the prayer of Jesus to His Father - [He... lifted up His eyes to heaven, and said: Father... this is eternal life, that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ (the Son), whom You have sent] (John 17:1-3). So now, when a person is filled with the profound knowledge of the holy Father and the holy Son, he or she has already received eternal life and become a real son or daughter of God, over whom the power of death cannot have dominion. In the 66 books of the Bible from Genesis to Revelation, there are found innumerable ways of interpreting the truth, the light, and various messages. But all these different ways merge in one place, which is the only road in heaven or on earth. It is a straight and broad road from earth to heaven, a road of the knowledge of the only true God and of Jesus Christ whom He has sent.]

When men continue to follow the narrow ways of hidden truths of light shining from the respective books of the Bible, they at last arrive at the road of John 17:3. From then on, all hidden mysteries that could not be understood by the little dim lights that have been leading them, will suddenly be clearly understood. On this new road, they will find themselves as if riding on an express bus or flying in an airplane, as if their journey toward heaven has been like riding in a slow-moving wagon on a gravel road until now. They will realize that they have already received the key from God that unlocks all the mysteries of the Bible and all the mysteries of heaven and earth. The happiness! The gratitude! The joy! Who will be able to measure them? This is the happiness that only those who have experienced can posses.

[But the path of the just is like the shining sun, that shines ever brighter unto the perfect day] (Prov. 4:18). This is the key of heaven that Jesus meant when He said, [And I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven] (Matt. 16:19).

If John 3:16 is esteemed as the head verse of all the Bible, its conclusion and completion is John 17:3. This verse, John 17:3 is the golden road, the road of everlasting life that leads straight from earth to the very throne of God in heaven. This is also the one and only key that unlocks the pearly gates of the kingdom of heaven. It is said that we have in the Bible a key that unfolds the universe to all mankind, a key that makes known hidden mysteries of the Bible.

Ellen Gould White said "The knowledge of God and Jesus Christ expressed in one's character is an exaltation above everything else that is esteemed on earth or in heaven. It is the very highest education. It is the key that opens the portals of the heavenly city. It is God's purpose that all who put on Christ should posses this knowledge." Yes. The knowledge of God is the foundation of all true education. It is the subject that we will so eagerly seek to learn in heaven throughout eternal ages. To impart the knowledge of God and Christ, to form characters in accordance with this knowledge, should be the purpose of all gospel workers and teachers of religion.

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.] (Prov. 9:10). [I desire mercy and not sacrifice, and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings] (Hosea 6:6). But [My people are foolish, have no understanding] Jer. 4:22 RSV). [There is no knowledge of God in the land] (Hosea 4:1). My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge] (Hosea 4:6). Who do you think He means my people?" He is referring to all the people on the earth, especially those who in search of eternal life, pray in church every morning, every week and worship God in family circles every morning and evening. But what an astonishing sigh we hear - "My people are destroyed!" What is this all about? What knowledge are we so destitute of and will we be destroyed without? I believe that this sigh comes from our lack of knowledge of [the only true God and Jesus Christ whom He has sent.]

This is the true knowledge which is our eternal life; therefore, I earnestly hope that you read through this book repeatedly with a prayerful and thirsting spirit, as a thirsty deer longs for a flowing stream, so that you may not belong to those for whom God heaves a sigh, but to those children of eternal life, the sons and daughters of God who run on this heaven-bound road with unspeakable joy and thanksgiving.

2. Signs and Wonders Cannot Give Eternal Life (Matt. 24:24)

[And this is the will of Him (our Father)] (John 6:40) that we should have the practical knowledge of [the true God and Jesus Christ whom He has sent] (John 17:3). This is eternal life and also the will and purpose of our Father. Yet there is a large multitude of [foolish men] (James 2:20) in the world who apart from the true, practical knowledge of eternal life revealed in the Bible, seek after signs and wonders with reckless faith. It is commonly seen that such people are absorbed in impractical wonders, neglecting the words of the Bible, the knowledge of it which gives true life everlasting.

Jesus said, [It is the spirit who gives life... the words that I speak to you (the Bible) are spirit and they are life (John6:63). however, neglecting the words of life that proceed from the mouth of God, sad to say, multitudes today are driven here and there, deceived by miracles and wonders, gaining nothing in their hands despite their desperate longing to grab for eternal life. As a weary, exhausted wanderer in the desert who deluded by the mirage, pursues one mirage after another with scarce hope, only to finally collapse and die in a vast, lonely desert; likewise, there are countless numbers of Christians today who end their religious lives with the same miserable and pitiful pursuit. But people (fellow Christians) claim that this brother or sister fell asleep in the Lord with great hopes, making him or her a splendid bier of many flowers and giving a magnificent funeral march. By so doing, they only comfort themselves. Oh, what a deplorable fact it is!

I must say again that our salvation and eternal life is not obtained by wonders and miracles, most of which are wrought by Satan acting under the name of Christ. For there is nothing more effective and powerful in means to deceive and take captive all those are not standing firmly on the Word of God.

Consider the agents of Satan who performed the same miracles as those by Moses, the servant of God, before the Pharaoh of Egypt. Behold the great power of Satan brought terrible disasters to the righteous Job. Therefore, I hope you will not forget that Satan is a dreadful enemy who can skillfully imitate even those true miracles and powers that Jesus performed two thousand years ago. That is why Jesus gave warnings to us living in this last days saying, [For false Christs and false prophets will arise and show great signs and wonders, so as to deceive, if possible, even the elect](Matt. 24:24). Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world] (1 John 4:1). He repeatedly warns us that men shall not obtain eternal life by wonders or miracles [but by every word (of the Bible) that proceeds from the mouth of God] (Matt. 4:4).

I hope you will remember that true wonders and miracles of God are wrought only in times of pressing needs, merely as an indication of His loving protection and tender care for His children, and that the miracle itself does not bring eternal life. Our only salvation and everlasting life lies the true knowledge of [the only true God and Jesus Christ whom He has sent] (John 17:3), that is to eat and drink "the word" of God in the Bible and to live our lives according to the Bible, in His Word that has been from the beginning and that which contains the Spirit and life of God. Now, let us listen to the voice of our God. [To the law and to the testimony! If they do not speak according to this word, they have no light of dawn] (Isa. 8:20, N.I.V.) I believe you readers know well that "the light of dawn" mentioned here means the day on which Jesus, the Sun of Righteousness comes with His ten thousand times ten thousand and thousands of thousands of angels (Matt. 25:31) to take back His people as He promised in John 14: 1-3. In order to see this glorious day, if we have thus far had the blind religion which is based on wonders and miracles rather than living on every word that proceeds from the mouth of God, let us shake it off now and turn to a new faith and a new heart. Let us return to the Bible and to the Bible only, which is filled with the treasures of truth, with the grand truth of the universe being, [This is eternal life, that they may know You, the true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent] (John 17:3).

I say again that "eternal life" cannot be obtained by the power to heal diseases or to cast out demons, or by exercising authority as a prophet. It cannot be earned by attaining the position or authority of a pastor or an evangelist, a priest or the Pope. Also, "eternal life" cannot be attained in strife or in envy, nor through the authority of any denomination or power-wielding organization. Eternal life is gained solely through the sacred knowledge of [the true God, and Jesus Christ whom He has sent.] Only this knowledge is eternal life and salvation. In this grand truth lies the way, the life, the resurrection, the kingdom of heaven, and God Himself. Let us return to the grand truth of the Bible with a humble heart.

There are so-called clergymen who are possessed by the power of Satan, and perform false miracles and wonders. We should not only be on our strict guard against them but also have compassion on them, since they are completely deceived into thinking that the miracles wrought through them are brought by the power of Jesus and the Holy Spirit. But soon, the true character of their deception will be made manifest on the day of Jesus' Second Coming. [Many will say to Me in that day, 'Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done wonders in You name?] (Matt. 7:22), so "why do you turn Your face from us, and pay no attention to us?" [And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you.'] "The power that flowed out from you so far was not of Me, nor of the Holy Spirit, but of the foul spirit, the evil spirit of Satan," Therefore, [depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!] (Matt. 7:23).

On that day, all the falseness shall be made manifest and they will see that all the miracles performed by them have been the deceptions and schemes of Satan. If you readers have been one of them, I entreat you with tears to make a resolution to shake off the enemy from you, and with courage and determination, come forward [to the only true God,] our mighty Father and to [Jesus Christ,] our tender Brother. Open your heart to Them and talk to Them about your situation. Please do not hesitate to ask Them which path in life you should take to become a true son of God and a true shepherd who can lead the flock of God to the right way of eternal life. Then I hope that when Jesus Christ, the King of kings comes, you will hear the blessed declaration, [Well done, good and faithful servant; you have been faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of you Lord.] And the King will say... Come... inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world'] (Matt.25:23.34).

However, to the unfaithful shepherds it will be spoken, [there you shall die and there your glorious chariots shall be the shame of your master's house. So I will drive you out of your office] (Isa.22:18.19). ['Bind him hand and foot, take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth'] (Matt. 22:13). Return, oh return from your ignorance immediately, dear elders! [He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches](Rev. 2: 29).

3. Eternal Life is Gained by True Knowledge

In China, it is commonly said, "Unless a precious stone is cut with a chisel it cannot be made a vessel of value, and unless a man learns, he cannot attain to righteousness." Chuangtzu, a sage of China also said, "Man who refuses to learn is like someone who attempts to soar up to the sky without proper skills."

To attempt to enter heaven without the knowledge of [the only true God and Jesus Christ whom He has sent] is like attempting to fly through the heavens without any means. There is no difference in the foolishness of trying to do the impossible. So God says, [It is not good to have zeal without knowledge] (Pro. 19:2, NIV). It is indeed not good as well as impossible to have eternal life and come before God without knowledge.

You may ask, "Why by knowledge and not by faith?" And of course you are right to say so. We are saved by faith in Christ, not by knowledge alone. But by looking into the origin of faith, we find that we cannot have faith unless we have knowledge first. [So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God] (Rom. 10:17). Therefore, whether we obtain eternal life or not depends upon whether we have the necessary knowledge or not. That is, our everlasting life depends upon the true knowledge of [the only true God and Jesus Christ whom He has sent] (John 17:3). So, to those children who do not give heed to this knowledge, God says, [I have written for him the great things of My law, but they were considered a strange thing] (Hosea 8:12). Therefore, [Behold, the days are coming ... that I will send a famine on the land; not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord (words of what is true knowledge)] (Amos 8:11). [Because I have called and you refused, I have stretched out My hand and no one regarded, because you disdained all my counsel, and would have none of my reproof, I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your terror comes, when your terror comes like a storm, and your destruction comes like a whirlwind, when distress and anguish come upon you. Then they will call (Upon Me), but I will not answer; they will seek (Me) diligently, but they will not find (Me) because they hated knowledge ... and would have none of My counsel, and despised all (My) reproof] (Pro. 1:24-30).

[Because you have rejected knowledge, I also will reject you from being priest for Me ... I also will forget your children] (Hosea 4:6). Therefore, without a doubt, it is of immediate necessity that all religious workers and witnesses for God spread the knowledge of [the only true God and Jesus Christ whom He has sent] (John 17:3), which is everlasting life to all. So, in order to impart this knowledge to all people, we ourselves must first know God as our patriarchs did.

God is calling today for those who will go into the perishing world with the true knowledge of eternal life. [Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying: 'Whom shall I send, and who will go for Us?'] (Isa. 6:8). [My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge] (Hosea 4:6). [For I desire mercy and not sacrifice, and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings] (Hosea 6:6).

4. The Precious Gift of Eternal Life That God Gives Solely to His Friends.

Jesus said that to [know the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You (God) have sent] is eternal life, and I think that a deeper meaning is implied in the words "to know." It is more than to merely know each other's face and name. For example, a man working in a large company caused a big fire by a momentary mistake. Many workers were killed and he was sentenced to death. This news reached his close and intimate friend who came to him immediately, comforting and encouraging him, saying, "Do not be worried. Because I know President - of our country very well, if I only go and tell him about you, he will grant a general amnesty to you, and you will be released right away. Meanwhile, you can just wait with peace of mind." A few days later, he was released on a general amnesty as his friend had said. In this example, when the friend said, "I know President - ," he did not mean that he knew the President as the people generally know the president, but that he knew the President closely and personally. Likewise, to know God as the Creator and the King of the universe and Jesus as the Son of God, the Saviour who came to save the world, is not enough. It means to know Them just as the friend of the man under the death sentence knew the President as a close friend. It is to know God as Enoch knew Him, who had walked with Him for three hundred years as a personal friend before he was taken up to heaven forever.

If God were to give eternal life to all who knew Him superficially as the Creator, and Jesus as God's Son and the Saviour, there would be few deprived of eternal life. James said, [You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe - and tremble!] (James 2:19). Yes, even Satan and his angels, and all the wicked people of the world know and believe that God is the Creator, the One who gives life and blessings to man. Even the idolaters and those possessed with demons acknowledge, believe and cry out to God. Then, shall God make this sinful world into an eternally dreadful and terrible one by giving such evil people eternal life? No, this can never be. Our heavenly Father will not, by giving them eternal life, make His universe more horrible. In the Bible, He has plainly declared that He would restore this universe to its original state, sinless and holy, by removing such people forever [in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone] (Rev. 21:8).

Therefore, eternal life is a precious gift of God that He gives only to those who obey the instructions and words of the only true God and Jesus Christ whom He has sent. It is a gift only to those who have become intimate friends with Them, walking hand in hand with Them as Enoch did in the past. And these are the children He will invite to His everlasting kingdom as He did Enoch.

In the Bible we read, [Now Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of the Lord, died when he was one hundred and ten years old ... (and) another generation arose who did not know the Lord] (Judges 2:8, 10). [Now the sons of Eli were corrupt; they did not know the Lord] (1 Sam 2:12). Do you think that the descendants of Joshua, the prominent leaders of Israel, did not know that the Lord is the Creator of heaven and earth, and that He had divided the Red Sea for their fathers, and in the wilderness fed them with manna for forty years, and gave them water from a rock? Also, because the sons of Eli, the priest, did not know the Lord, is it written that they knew not God as the Creator? No. They did know the God of Israel. They knew Him well. But they turned away from Him who only found pleasure in giving them life and blessings, and refused to be friends with Him as Enoch was, betraying Him to live an impure and unruly life. Finally, they ended up perishing in their sins. I hope that my brothers and sisters who read this book learn from them, and become close friends with God and Jesus as Enoch was, because They will give you all the rich treasures of the universe unsparingly, one of them being the immortal life of God, the eternal life that we have been studying thus far.

Eternal life is a gift of God which is filled with His love and heart, which He gives only to His friends one by one, ever discreetly. I pray that those who read this book with eager interest will also receive this precious gift and enjoy the everlasting happiness of eternal life.

The Importance of the Knowledge of the Only True God and Jesus Christ.

(1) The Knowledge of the True God

[There is no truth or mercy or knowledge of God in the land] (Hosea 4:1).

[My people are foolish, they have not known Me. They are silly children, and they have no understanding] (Jer. 4:22). [My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge ] (Hosea 4:6). [For I desire mercy and not sacrifice, and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings] (Hosea 6:6).

It is the darkness of the misapprehension of God that is enshrouding the world. Men are losing their knowledge of His character. It has been misunderstood and misinterpreted. At this time a message from God is to be proclaimed, a message illuminating in its influence and saving in its power. His character is to be made known. Into the darkness of the world is to be shed the light of His glory, the light of His goodness, mercy, and truth. This is the work outlined by the prophet Isaiah in the words, [O Zion, you who bring good tidings, get up into the high mountain; O Jerusalem you who bring good tidings, lift up your voice with strength; lift it up, be not afraid; say to the cities of Judah "Behold your God!"] (Isa. 40:9). The last rays of merciful light, the last message of mercy to be given to the world, is a revelation of God's character of love and it is the children of God who are to manifest His glory. Through their lives and character, they are to manifest the grace of God which has been poured on them.

Our knowledge of God today is partial and imperfect. [But when the perfect comes, the imperfect will pass away] (1 Cor. 13:9, 10, RSV). [Let us know, let us pursue the knowledge of the Lord] (Hosea 6:3).

[If you cry out for discernment, and lift up your voice for understanding, if you seek her as silver, and search for her as for hidden treasures; then you will understand the fear of the Lord, and find the knowledge of God] (Pro. 2:3-5). This knowledge is gained by meditating upon the word of God, And this treasure may be earned by all those who would give everything they have for it.

In order to be representatives of God we must know Him first.

Moses knew God, personally. Through his close relationship with God, he was able to hear the call from heaven, to exchange his shepherd’s crook for the rod of authority, to leave his flock of sheep and take on the leadership of Israel.

In order to be co-workers with God, in order to become like Him and to reveal His character, we must know Him aright. We must know Him as He reveals Himself. A knowledge of God is the foundation of all true education and of all true service. If is the only safeguard against temptation. It is this alone that can make us like God in character. This is the knowledge needed by all who are working for the uplifting of standards in mankind. Transformation of character, purity of life, efficiency in service, adherence to correct principles, all depend upon a proper knowledge of God. This knowledge is the essential preparation both for this life and for the life to come. [And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding] (Pro. 9:10). Through knowledge of Him we are given [all things that pertain to life and godliness] (2 Peter 1:3). [This is eternal life, that they might know You the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent] (John 17:3). When we know God as it is our privilege to know Him, our life will be one of continual obedience. Eventually, through His children, the final and full display of the love of God to the world will be clearly revealed, and the world will be lightened with its glory.

(2) The Importance of the Knowledge of Jesus Christ.

The world doesn't need so much of anything else as it does and expression of the love of Christ through men. All heaven is waiting for channels through which God can communicate the holy oil to men, which when received, is a joy and blessing to their hearts. After the descent of the Holy Spirit, the disciples were so filled with love for Jesus and for those for whom He died, that many people's hearts were melted by the words they spoke and the earnest prayers they offered. There is nothing that Christ desires so much as He does agents who will represent to the world His Spirit and character.

When Lifeless doctrines accomplish nothing, the love of Jesus will melt and attract the hearts of men. His ever-abiding love, His holiness, meekness, mercy and truth are to be revealed to the world through His disciples. Our love for Christ and for our fellow brethren will testify to the world that we live and learn from Him daily. And eventually, the whole world will be lightened by His glory.

(3) The Importance of the Knowledge of God and Jesus Christ.

In His prayer to the Father, Christ said, [This is eternal life, that they might know You the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent] (John 17:3). This is the true education. It imparts power. The experimental knowledge of God and Jesus Christ whom He has sent, transforms man into the image of God. It gives to man the mastery of self, bringing every impulse and passion of the lower nature under the control of the higher powers of the mind. It makes its possessor a son of God, and an heir of heaven. It brings him into communion with the mind of the Infinite, and opens to him the rich treasures of the universe. The knowledge of God and Jesus Christ expressed in character is an exaltation above everything else that is esteemed on earth or in heaven. It is the very highest education. It is God's purpose that all who believes in Christ should possess this. The knowledge of God and Jesus Christ revealed in the character of man is highly esteemed as having the greatest value both in heaven and on earth. It is the very highest education. This is the key that opens the portals of the heavenly city.

Eternal life is to know the only true God and Jesus Christ whom He has sent. But Satan, the enemy of mankind, with his angels, are determined that men should not have this perfect knowledge of the love of God. So, all of heaven is anxious to see holy agents who will go to the world with the message of life today. [Also I heard the voice of the Lord saying: `Whom shall I send, and who will go for Us?'] [My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge] (Isa. 6:8, Hosea 4:6).

Where are the sons and daughters of God who will answer to the voice of the Lord, today?

Elijah 1

Good morning. Yesterday when I woke up early in the morning, there are many people who woke up even before the bell rang who were talking and it was quite noisy. When it’s hot, it’s hard to sleep early and you tend to wake up earlier in the morning as well. But as for us, as we have been holding hundred seminars, it never matter to us whether it was hot or whether it was monsoon season, or whether the snow is supposed to fall because our Real Daddy always took control the weather and He will make the nights cool for us. Please do not sleep late. And there are so many people outside talking, even past 10 at night. But the specialty of the people who are to live in heaven, in the eternal land, is that they have very good manners and they are never rude. So for others, please….even if you wake up a little early, if you have something to say to your family or to others, whisper into one another’s ear and be careful as you open and close the doors so it won’t cause too much noise.

And there are some people who go up to the mountains and they pray all night long, especially those who come from Protestant Churches. But we should never bother other people for what we want to do. And if you cause other people to not be able to sleep at night, so they will fall asleep during the day, then God will never praise us for what we have done. So please be careful and if you have something to say, whisper into each other’s ear, be careful as you open and close the doors, so it stays quiet, so that people will not lost sleep.

Please read Malachi chapter 4 verse 5 & 6, [“Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet Before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD, and he will turn The hearts of the fathers to the children, And the hearts of the children to their fathers, Lest I come and strike the earth with a curse."] Do you believe that the God of Elijah will bring up Elijah again, before the last days? Then why does God fulfill this Malachi chapter 4 verse 5 & 6? Why does He fulfills this work of Elijah again? Why does He send  Elijah again? First, He sends Elijah in order to give us the latter rain of the Holy Spirit.

Let’s look at 1 King chapter 17 verse 1, [And Elijah the Tishbite, of the inhabitants of Gilead, said to Ahab, "As the LORD God of Israel lives, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew, nor rain these years, except at my word."] Many thousand of years ago, when this whole world was in control by the organization of religion, Ahab who was the head politician and the religious head of the country, one day Elijah went to this leader, the head of the country and said, “In the name of the God whom I serve there shall be no rain, no dew in the future for many years, except at my word. And without any rain your country, the church will all fall into ruins.” Is King Ahab atheist?. No. He knew God. He was the religious leader at that time. And he was controlling all the people with his power. But a certain man who is not even a pastor, or an elder, or a deacon, he goes out in front of the King and says, “In the name of God whom I serve if you will not listen to me and repent, no matter how many years passed, there will not only be rain, but there will be no dew, and the church will fall to ruins.” So Since the God whom I serve is the true God listen to me and repent. And if you don’t, then you will fall to ruins.”

Can you believe a man who is not even a deacon who came from the country side, and goes to the religious leader of the country and says those kinds of words. What if someone comes to you and says, “There’s no salvation except at my words.” How upset you will become? Yet, this Elijah went to that man who is the religious leader of the country and said, “Your God is a false God. The God whom I serve is the true God. So you must listen to the words of my God and repent, because if you don’t, then the country, your religion will fall to ruins.” Would you believe that this truly happened? In these last days God will fulfill this work again.

Ahab was shock. “Who are you? Where did you come? He wanted to ask him, but Elijah just said what he wanted to say and disappeared. This was the first time the King heard such harsh words from anyone. This is the first time he received this kind of shame and disgrace. So the King called his guard. You could imagine as the king of the country, how many security guards must he passed. So he called his guards and said, “Did you see just a while ago a certain man came to me and said such words? Who sent that man in?” “We have never seen anyone like that, not even a dog went by. And all the guards said that and they were not asleep. They were all awake. And of course, it was not even night time. “Then, did you see him leave?” “No. No one ever left.” Jesus said, “Those who are from God, it says the wind blows where it wishes and you heard the sound of it, but you cannot tell where it comes and where it goes, and so is everyone who is born of the spirit. We cannot see the wind, but as we see the trees fall over, houses fall over, we see that there is wind. But we do not know where the wind comes, and where it’s going. In the same way, those who are of God are the same.

In every time and age of earth’s history, no one ever knew where this man of God came from and where he went. But this King Ahab, he was so filled with fear. Though he thought that his religion was the true religion, and there were many leaders under him, a certain man all of a sudden came up to him and said that your God is the false God, and you must return to the true God, my God, or else you will be destroyed. And this is the first time that he had ever heard anything like that and he was filled with fear. So he called altogether all those other religious leaders under him, who is considered very spiritual and he brought them all together, and he told them what Elijah said. “You know, this man Elijah said these words to me. What do you think? I don’t know who he is.” And so these religious leaders said, “Oh, King, don’t worry. He’s a heretic. He’s a fanatic. He’s out of his mind. Don’t worry, if we pray God will bring down rain. So don’t worry.” And yet for some reason, King Ahab could not trust those words. And only the words of that man from the country side, who the man he did not even know, his words kept on ringing in his heart, and it was as if he could still hear those words fresh. But just as he was someone who disappeared like the wind, he did not know where he went. So he just comforted himself with the words of those religious leaders he had called, and he said, “Then, okay, pray that it will rain.” And he sent them all home. But strange thing happened, though that strange man had come and said that there will be no rain, from that night forth; those words were fulfilled to the latter. In other days, there was dew in the morning, and you can see it. And the flowers and the plants would live off from that dew, but from that night on, there was no dew. There was only dry wind blowing, and the rivers, the creeks and streams began to dry. Spring passed, summer passed, yet there was not even one drop of rain, and there was no dew, and all the fields became dry. They could not even sow seeds and even trees with deep roots, they dried up, and his nation became ruined. Again the next year, and then the next year, for three and half years. King Ahab brought altogether, all those so called man of God, servants of God, and requested them to pray. He had them even pray all night, and fast. And he had them do everything. But God could not answer their prayers and instead only the word of that man whom the rest of the world considered a heretic and a fanatic. Only those words were being fulfilled.

So these religious leaders who always deceived the people, do you know what they said next? “King, our God is very upset and angry. That’s why He is not giving us rain. If we just kill that Elijah, God will give us rain.” And this foolish Ahab who is always deceived believed those words. “Okay. Then let’s kill Elijah.” And so he sent his soldiers out to all the mountains and to the cities to look for Elijah, but they could not find him. How can people find the man which God has hidden? So according to the words of that heretic and fanatic, the nation fell to ruins. And all of a sudden because the nation was in ruins, there were no more tithes for the people to pay. And so, even those religious leaders had run out of money. And all the animals began to die due to the lack of water. And even the king’s animals were dying because of thirst. But there’s no water. And afterwards, this man, this heretic, this fanatic appeared to King Ahab again. He did not repent to the end and instead try to kill the messenger of God.

So, finally it was decided. Okay’ let’s have a confrontation and see who the true God is. And so they gathered on Mt. Carmel. They put up, made an altar, and put sticks and they put a lamb. “The God who brings down fire and takes the sacrifice, burns the sacrifice is the true God.” And so they agreed, and everyone gathered on Mt. Carmel. This was a real battle now. Elijah said, “All of you pray first.” Now all those religious leaders who laid hands on people and healed people, and had those who cannot walk, paralyzed, they had them walked. So Elijah said, “You are much larger in number and you show great miracles, so you go first. I will do afterwards.” And the people, they all gathered there, and they’re watching to see. Of course the mountain was bare, nothing was alive out of the lack of rain for the past three and half- years, and everyone gathered there and everyone can see.

So these religious leaders all converged on that the mountain. And they started to go around in circles and pray, “Oh, God bring down the fire.” If you look in the Bible it says, that they called out to Baal. But that’s only for us to understand. They actually did not pray “Baal, Baal” they prayed in the name of God. If those prophets were praying in the name of Baal, do you think the people of God will be deceived? No. It’s the same with Jesus 2,000 years ago, when there were so many people gathered in Jerusalem, do you think they did not prayed in the name of God? They also prayed in the name of God. And what about in the world these days, do all the churches did not call in the name of God? Yes, they both all call in the name of God. But here, there is the difference between the real and the fake, the true and the false. So beginning from Adam to the last days of this earth, there will always be two Gods, a false god and the true God.

So they started going around and circles around the altar, shaking their bodies, saying, “God bring down the fire.” But there was no fire. Up until lunch time, they scream and shouted until their voices went hoarse, yet nothing happen. The sun is shining so brightly, but their prayers will not end. The people were so tired of watching and nothing was happening and they were sick and tired of waiting. But what did Elijah said? Elijah said, “Maybe your god is sleeping. Maybe he went somewhere, he’s on a trip. You should pray louder, he can’t hear you.” Right now their voices were hoarse from screaming and Elijah instead was telling them, “Pray louder.” They had been screaming all morning long. You can imagine how loud it was with 850 priests screaming. Yet, he was saying, “Oh, you must cry out louder. He’s probably sleeping, or he’s on a trip, he can’t hear you.” They want to kill him but everyone is watching. So they can’t kill him. Later, these religions leaders took out a knife and they started stabbing themselves and shedding blood. And yet, their god did not answer them. It became evening. All day long they prayed. Now they don’t even have the strength to pray out loud any longer. And their body was covered in blood.

Among the 850 prophets of Baal, among them, someone tried to light a match to make a fire. “What are you doing? How dare you put that fire? They try to make a deceit again. In the end, the people were so sick and tired of listening to those prayers. And every time of age, all throughout history, the prayers of the false gods were the same, loud and boisterous. Did Jesus ever jumped up and down and scream and yell? But look at the church in the world, do they not scream, and jumped up and down and yell? All those who worship the demon, always prayed and worshipped in the same way. And whether Elijah or Jesus or the last Elijah, their worship is all the same. It is quiet and solemn. Here, we can already see the difference between the true God and the false god.

The sun went down and still they wouldn’t give up their place. And after the sun went down, they gave up. It showed now their true state and colors. Though they had laid their hands on people, and supposedly made blind people see, and the paralyzed walk. On this day, in fighting with Elijah, everything that they had done up to now was shown to be a lie. Before they had appeared Elijah, all the people thought that those religious leaders were true. But in front of Elijah, their falseness was revealed. God completely shown those blind people the falseness of the religious leaders.

And now, Elijah took his place, he walked out. And he was very well-known to be very evil, heretic. Through all their organizations and powers they told everyone that Elijah was very evil. He was wicked, he stole, and said so many bad things. And they said that it’s because of that evil Elijah that our country had become like this. Every week they spoke about Elijah. That’s why even the people, whenever they just hear the name Elijah, they are filled with anger and they are upset.

Now finally, Elijah was showing himself. Everybody wondered what an evil man he was. But as they saw him, they realized how simple he looked and how kind he looked. You know, when our pastor talked about Elijah, he seemed to be such a wicked looking man, but instead, he looks so kind. He has no sword, he has no friend, he stands there alone. Such a kind looking man, how could he stand, how could he walked on this path alone? There was no one else with him. And they wondered, “O let’s see how he screams and jumps.” Instead, he just kneels and prays, [“Lord God of Abraham, Isaac and Israel, let it be known this day that you are the true God in Israel, and I am your servant, that I’m the true servant. Hear me O, Lord, hear me and answer.” It’s a very simple prayer. And right after he finished that prayer, without a delay of a second the fire came down from heaven. Do you believe that this is not just a story but that something that really happened? This really happened. And at that time the sun had already gone down. So not only Mt. Carmel but the whole area could see the fire falling. Even people who did not go up to Mt. Carmel could see right away that the fire was falling from heaven. And so the altar and the offering burnt. But not only the calf was burned but the rocks and everything, the whole altar was burnt and consumed and disappeared. Did God not give a sure answer?

At that time, even when all the false religious leaders had spread false rumors, with that one answer all the people’s eyes were opened and they were able to see who the God of Elijah was. And they realized that the God of Elijah was the true God, and that Elijah was the true son of God. And they all went to Elijah and they hit the ground, and said, “Yes, He is our Lord, He is the true God. God, up to now, we fought against you. We were deceived by those false religious leaders. All we did was want to kill your servants. Please forgive us.” And they all repented and they all returned to the God of Elijah. You know, the false religions in the world, you can’t tell it’s false unless you come to the God of Elijah. But once you return to the God of Elijah, once they return they were able to see the difference between the true and the false, the real and the fake.

So three years ago, he said, “Unless you forsake your false God and returned to me, return and repent. If you repent you will be given all the blessings and eternal life.” And so since they return, the rain started to fall because of that one prayer of a righteous. If it was not for that one man, even Israel today would not have been able to remain up to this day. You must remember that the prayer of one righteous man can save a nation.

And when the Son of Man comes again in these last days, he said that it will be like in the days of Noah. And when Jesus said those words, He meant that this whole world will be possessed by false religions. And this was not spoken by Peter, but by Jesus Himself. Then, how can one receive the latter rain of the Holy Spirit? Just as I said and told you yesterday, everything that God will fulfill is already prophesied in the Bible. Right now, the whole world does everything to receive the Holy Spirit, to see the second movement, the Pentecostal movement. But the Holy Spirit does not come to those who jump-up-and-down and scream and yell. It’s written in the Bible that the Holy Spirit… where and when and by how. It’s already promised how we can receive the Holy Spirit. The Bible is very précised.

Let’s read Malachi chapter 3 verse 1, [“Behold, I send My messenger, And he will prepare the way before Me. And the Lord, whom you seek, Will suddenly come to His temple, Even the Messenger of the covenant, In whom you delight. Behold, He is coming," Says the LORD of hosts.] Whenever God has something important to proclaim, He put His name in their. He’s saying this will happen for sure. [Behold, I will send My messenger], which God is saying this? Do you believe that it is the God Elijah? Do you believe that this is the true God? [Behold, I send My messenger.] Who is the messenger? Elijah. Behold I send Elijah. And he will prepare the way before me, and the Lord whom you seek.]

So before Jesus comes, He will send Elijah and those who listen to Elijah and rejects the false spirits, and return to Elijah, [and the Lord whom you seek will suddenly come to his temple.] Which of the Lord have you sought up to now? Jesus said, “I am the Helper, but the Father will sent you another Helper. Wait for Him.” Then that Lord, that third God when will He appear? [Behold, I will send My messenger.] When Elijah comes, those who listen to the words of Elijah will return and repent, in that very plaza? That very temple, He will suddenly come to His temple. How exact this is. The time and the place, is it not written here?

No matter how many times people gather in Youido plaza, there’s no Holy Spirit there. It says that [the Holy Spirit will suddenly come to His temple. Even the messenger of the covenant in whom you delight.] Just as the second God promised, the third God, the Holy Spirit comes down to those who listen to the voice of Elijah and return. And just as the former rain of the Holy Spirit came down in the time of the Pentecost in the attic room, the latter rain of the Holy Spirit will also fall to His temple. There’s no need for us to wander with the Bible here. Everything is so precise, even the fact that Jesus garments will be torn and they will gamble for it. And even none of His bones will be broken. All of that is so precise written in the Bible. So, will you believe then what happen in the time of Elijah, will also happen in these last days? It’s the same thing that will happen. Only those who hear the Words, the voice of the one whom God has sent, those who listen to those words will receive the Holy Spirit.

Even though Jesus did not graduate from even the elementary school, those who listened to Jesus and returned to Him, and He gathered in the attic room, received the Holy Spirit. It’s very easy. It’s written that history repeats itself. It’s also written somewhere, people say that, “Those who cannot understand the past are those who are like animals wearing clothes.” In other words, those who cannot understand the past, cannot understand the present and the future. So, because history repeats itself, if you want to know what the present is like, you must study the past and learn from it.

So why did God send Elijah? Not only just to scold and to rebuke, but in order for the people to receive the Holy Spirit, so that they can be prepared and ascend to heaven. Secondly, why does God send Elijah? To prepare the way of the King. Malachi chapter 3 verse 1. ["Behold, I send My messenger, And he will prepare the way before Me.] The God of Elijah says, [Behold, I send My messenger to all of you. And He will prepare what? He will prepare the way before me. What way? The way for the second advent of Jesus.

When I was living in Cheonla Province, I was setting up a new church, pioneering a new church. I was very, very busy farming. But one time, out of the speakers, the PS system, they told everyone to bring shovels and come out to the road, and so, we all gathered. The reason why they gathered us was to fix up the road, because the governor of the province is going by. If President Park Jong Hee, who was the president at that time, if he had gone by then, they probably would have made an asphalt road. Even when a president or king goes by, we have people who prepare the way, we had police and security who go first, isn’t that so?

Even America like the President, supposedly he has a thousand security and police. And of course, there’re many more than that. But those are his personal body guards and security. So even if a president or king of this country on this earth goes by, there’s police, security. Then, if the God of heaven comes down to this earth, should there not be any one who prepare the way for Him? Of course, there should be. And so Jesus when He came down to this earth 2,000 years ago, even when He first came, there was someone who prepare the way for Him. And who was that? That was John the Baptist. He was the second Elijah.

But even at that time, religion which had controlled of the whole world, when John the Baptist came, did they acknowledge him? Instead they killed him. But it’s written that history will repeat itself. And in these last days, a certain man will come out, someone who did not receive the education of this world, He did not learn from the theological school of this world, God of Elijah will use Him to be a messenger. At that time, the rest of the religions of this world will arise to get rid of Him.

So when the God of heaven came down 2,000 years ago, there was a second Elijah. And do you believe that Jesus will come again? Yes. Then, there will also be another messenger who will prepare His way. Who is that? [Behold, I send My messenger, and he will prepare the way before me.] Now, do you know who it is? Before Jesus comes, Elijah will appear again and prepare the way for Jesus’ second coming. I hope that you will become the Elijahs for your church. Unless these precise events happen, Jesus can not come. That’s why those who say that Jesus will come on October, they are truly crazy. They are truly crazy, they are fanatics. After Elijah prepares the way then Jesus will come. They called John the Baptist a fanatic and they killed him. but six months later they disappeared. Then where will he prepare the way? Let’s look at Isaiah 40:3-5[] where did Elijah prepare the way? Will he prepare in America or in Korea? Let’s read here Isaiah 40:3-5 [the voice of the one crying in the wilderness prepare the way of the Lord, makes straight the way of the desert ] so where will he prepare the way? In the wilderness and in the desert Elijah will prepare the way. Then did God send Elijah and go to Elijah and say, “Go to that wilderness where no one lives and prepare the way. And go to that desert, that *** desert and call a construction company to pave the road and Jesus will come down on helicopter.” Do you think He will command like that? A certain theological seminary professor said, “Ah, this wilderness and desert means that we will go to the countryside and preach there.” But that’s not so at all. This wilderness and desert spoken of here is not speaking of some visible wilderness or desert but the wilderness and desert of our hearts. Receiving the former rain of the Holy Spirit or the latter rain of the Holy Spirit means we must to first receive the voice of the One He has sent. You know our hearts are like trees. Jesus said, “I am the vine and you are the branches.” Our hearts is like a tree and only when we receive the rain of the Holy Spirit in our hearts cannot water, nourish the tree of our hearts. There will be leaves of regeneration and flowers of sanctification and fruits of sanctification. But if you are dragged around by the false spirits and because the whole world is deceived they cannot receive the true Holy Spirit and instead they are like Mt. Carmel without any rain. No trees, everything that is living is dead. It’s like a desert. The hearts are empty and thirsty, were you not like that before? Yes, that was all of your hearts. But through Elijah and we received the raining and falling of the rain of the latter rain of the holy spirit then all of our hearts by the water of the Holy Spirit all of a sudden the leaves and the flowers of regeneration and the fruit of sanctification comes out. And this is the very path, and this is the very way, and this is the very place which Elijah prepares. Our hearts which are all burnt and desolate by receiving the latter rain of the Holy Spirit the leaves of regeneration and the flowers of sanctification are the fruits of the Holy Spirit. This is the very way in which Elijah sent to prepare. Every valley shall be exalted and mountain and hill brought low. What is this speaking of? When we are speaking of valley, the valley is speaking of ignorance. It is written in the Bible that, ‘my people are dying because of ignorance. Though there are so many people talking about God, there’s no true knowledge. So through Elijah though it was like a valley the truth will completely *** up that valley though which was lacking the truth. Then every mountain and hill, all that pride, all that false education and all those false knowledge of God will all be taken away. Every one will become degenerated and sanctified and bear fruits and that time all will see the glory of the Lord. And this will be fulfilled before the second coming of Jesus. No matter who it is, no matter how intelligent, no matter what kind of education you may receive and no matter how ignorant and uneducated they maybe they will receive the Holy Spirit and all receive the same knowledge and then they will see the glory of God. And then Jesus will come again. Until this will not be fulfilled Jesus will not come. So you must understand that this must be fulfilled or else it is not the truth. I guess you will have to wait and see until what I say is true or not. So secondly, Elijah was the man who prepares the way of Jesus to make His second advent. And third, Elijah is sent so that all the prodigals’ sons may return to the Father’s arms. All the children who did not want to lose the heavenly Father and went on their own way, they will all return to the heavenly Father’s arms. Just as in the story that Jesus told us, they will all be embraced by the Father. And they return back home. Elijah was sent on this earth to fulfill that. It’s written in John says, Jesus says in John, “I will not forsake you. You will not be like orphans and I will not forsake you.” If Jesus says, He will do it, then, He will do it. He will do it through? Mal. 4:5,6 [he will turn all the hearts of the children to their Father, and the heart of the Father to the children and they will bring together the Father and all the children] this is the true mission of Elijah. As I told you last night, there are many churches and religions in this world who’s trying to return the people to Jesus. Are there religions and denominations that joined the people to the heavenly Father? No. this is the only work which Elijah can fulfill. That’s why do not call anyone in the earth your father for there is only one Father who can embrace you and take you home. All of you must be embraced by the heavenly Father so that you may ascend to heaven.

So during in these ten days, I hope that you will throw away all your pride and if you do, all of you will be embraced by the heavenly Father. It’s written that, “God’s words will be fulfilled at that moment.’ Even if you have many doctorate degrees in theology, if you just humble yourself, He will get rid of all the false education, all the false that you learned and He will instead fill you with the truth.

Fourth, why does God send Elijah? In order to generate and sanctify us. If you look at the religions of the world, is there anyone who speaks about regeneration or sanctification? They do not even know the first thing about regeneration. All of the leaders are busy healing people and making money. They don’t even know what it means to be regenerated instead Buddhist speaks about regeneration. The Christian should be speaking of regeneration but instead now the Buddhist has taken away the word regeneration. But to those who do not know what is regeneration, Elijah is sent in order to regenerate and sanctify the people. Luke 1:17 [] it said, ‘you will also be reformed in the spirit and power of Elijah.’ In the last days He will also go before him in the spirit and power of Elijah. You know Elijah was different in face and in name and even where he appeared. But they always said the same spirit and power. All throughout history, why? because they are sent by the same God. If we look at Elijah of the past then we can know Elijah who will appear. Because they have the same heart, spirit and power. He will also go before him the spirit and power of Elijah to make radiant people prepare the way of the Lord; To turn the heart of the Father to the children. Even though the children rebelled and went the wrong way they all returned back to the Father. And to make the radiant people prepare the way of the Lord. All those religious leaders and followers they will say, “Oh, you mountains, oh! you hills fall upon me because I cannot bear to see the Lord.” Those are the very people who use the name of Jesus to perform miracles and to make money. But when Jesus really appears they will say, ‘Oh, I cannot barely see the face of Jesus. Oh! you mountains and hills cover me up.” And they will run away. But there are people who are ready. ‘Oh! Lord Jesus, we have waited for You!” who are they? They are the ones who have become regenerated and sanctified. Those who have the image and the face of Jesus are the ones who can welcome Him. so in order to fulfill this, God sends Elijah. And it’s also prophesied in Luke 1:76-79 [] what is the prophet of the highest? It’s not a prophet of this earth but a prophet of heaven. To the people in time of Israel called John the Baptist the prophet? No. But who called John the Baptist the prophet? Jesus said He is a Prophet borne of woman. I hope that you will not try to accept acknowledgment from the people of this world. But I hope that you will be acknowledged by the Prophet by the God of Heaven. And each child will be called by the Prophet of the Highest for you will go before the face of the Lord, you will go before Jesus comes to prepare His ways. To give knowledge or salvation to His people by the remission of their sins. So through Elijah, all of your sins will be taken away. So you will just wait and see if this will be fulfilled or not. Everything in the Bible must be fulfilled to the very letter and to the very dot. There is not one thing in the Bible that is not fulfilled. Everything must but fulfilled. The reason why He sends Elijah, He sends to the tender mercy of our God. It is our God’s last show of love to His children, with which the day spring from One high has visited us to give light to those who seated on the darkness and the shadow of death to guide our feet into the way of peace. So the God of Elijah, the Son, the day of spring shines in our hearts that’s why we are able to see what is real, what is false, what is true, what is heresy, what is error. And by that light through Elijah we can see everything clearly and do everything clearly. It’s written here, this day spring from high, this day spring is the sun, what the sun is speaking of? That sun is the one that is spoken of Isaiah 60:19 [] so we want to see where the road is, we want to see where the truth is, we want to see where the way of light is, in order to be lifted up, the true God, the glory of the true God will be in our hearts. Your sun shall no longer go down nor shall your moon withdraw itself for the Lord will be your everlasting light and the days of your morning shall be ended. Because we have these two Gods in our hearts never again will our face be filled with sadness or mourning but instead our face will show the heavenly peace, joy and happiness. And this is the face of those regenerated and sanctified. Because our face and our heart is the same. Now a days even people see people who do not even believe in Jesus they say, ‘You go to Elijah Missionary Institute? Do you know me? Ah! I see your face I know.’ People who go to Elijah Missionary Institute their faces are always so bright. So last time our Bible reader here she went down to the town and they said, ‘Oh! You live in Shinsundong, don’t you? Oh! How do you know? Ah! I could see it in your face.’ Even all our brethren in all neighborhood, wherever they go their faces are filled with peace and joy. This is the very day spring, the glory of the Two Gods shining in our hearts. Also a certain doctor of theological technology came and said to me, “Teacher, how come only such beautiful are here.” Though they don’t have any make-up they are beautiful. If you go to other meetings, everyone has all their make-ups all over their face but still they don’t look pretty. But here, there’re people who don’t even use make-up but they are so beautiful. They are actually very beautiful at all but it is the light of glory of heaven which shines. That’s why Jesus said, ‘I am the light and you are the sons of the light.’ We are the children of the heavenly Father who is the Light. That’s why even though we don’t put anything in our faces any make-up or anything there’s light shining in our face. Soon you will know that the God of Elijah is truly guiding us.

Finally, why does God send Elijah? For us to able to accept, for us to receive the King of Glory Jesus and not run away. Be able to accept Him in joy and not run away in shame. If you look at in Malachi 4, it says that, ‘If it does not turn the children to the Father and the Father to the children and to those who do not return Jesus said to them, ‘Strike the earth with the curse.’ So everything in the bible ends with Elijah. After that Jesus will come, He will destroy the world and take all of His followers. You must know that this is the greatest event in these last days. I hope that you will open your eyes wide and see where this work of Elijah is being fulfilled. And I hope that you’ll find there. If you go to Christian bookstores you can see all kinds of books concerning Daniel and Revelation but there’s no need to read any of those books. Because they are all lies. There’s so many gods in this world. This person, that person they all interpreted God in all different ways. Why? Why is God like that? But it’s not like that at all. You cannot understand Revelation through research and study. If you just have the key of Elijah and Malachi 4:5,6 then all the secrets of Daniel and Revelation will be all opened up to you. have all these revelations have become opened to you? they have been opened up to you long time ago. So that’s why all those who come here will not be deceived by those who say that Jesus will come on October. The rest of the world may shiver in fear. Even all people they gave up their jobs and they gave up their families. You will know that those who followed the light are following the sure path and they are so happy. [Let’s come and strike the earth with the curse and to those who return it says that, *******behold! This is our God. We have waited for Him and He will save us.’] He will also go before him in the spirit of Elijah. He will turn the hearts of the Father’s children and the disobedient, *** and to make them a just, to make ready a people prepared for the Lord. They are the ones who will say, ‘Behold! This is our God. We have waited for Him and He will save us!’ Who will prepare the people? Elijah. The God of Elijah sends His messenger, His son to prepare the people. Then who will be prepared? Mal. 3:3 [He will sit as a refiner and a purifier of silver, He will purify the sons of Levi and prepare them as gold and silver so that they may offer to the Lord in offering in righteousness] So this Elijah will sit as refiner and a purifier of silver, he will purify the sons of Levi and purge them as gold and silver. He takes the sons of Levi and cleanses them that they may be able to accept Jesus and be taken to heaven. Who? The sons of Levi, and who should he be? Out of the twelve tribes of Israel we must be the sons of Levi. Then how? How can we become the sons of Levi? Who are the sons of Levi? All throughout history God asked His people for their chastity. No matter how beautiful a woman is if she has no chastity then she is not a woman. No matter how good looking a man is if he does not know how to be faithful then he is no good. That’s why there is loyalty for a man and faithfulness and for a woman it’s chastity. When God made a covenant with us, it was like a wedding covenant. God will ask His people on Mt. Sinai in the time of Moses, ‘Will you keep your chastity to Me?” and they said, “Yes! We will keep to our God. Through all the descendants and we will never give up our chastity.’ “Then I’ll give to you My love. Tell Moses to come up.’ So after gathering and received the promised for the people He gave them the Law. At the end of this law, and at the end of this Ark they can go to anywhere and they will be able to defeat any enemy, at any time and they will always be victorious. That’s what with the law was. It was the guarantee of their safety and victory. A day, three days, five days, seven days past and yet Moses does not come down. After a month Moses still not coming down. So after waiting, ‘Oh, let’s make a god for ourselves. Ah! Maybe God killed Moses. Let’s make other God.’ They convinced Aaron and they made a golden calf. They began worshipping this calf. Nowadays, there are lots of churches who worship at dawn but is there any Holy Spirit? Just attending dawn worship does not mean you receive the Holy Spirit. Going any prayer place and jumping up and down and screaming does not mean you receive the Holy Spirit. Only those who hear the voice of the God of Elijah and repent they will receive the Holy Spirit. So Moses was waiting and God said that, “You better go down. You should go down for the people are dying.” ‘What? They said that they’ll keep their chastity for eternal ages.’ “No! Go down.’ And Moses came down with the tablets in his arms and when he came down he saw one month ago the people was saying that, “We will keep our chastity to our God for eternity.’ But instead they were kissing and bowing down and worshipping. They were jumping up and down and screaming. Moses became so upset. They said that they would keep their chastity for generations but they can’t bear to wait even more than a month and they were bowing down and kissing the golden calf. So Moses became so upset and there he broke the two tablets. And it shattered into pieces. It was not Moses but it was God who broke it. It was the breaking of the covenant. No matter how beautiful a woman is if she has no chastity then that’s the end. So the covenant was broken. It was shattered and God forsook them. Moses fasted for forty days and repented to God and all the people repented. And Moses said, ‘Those who do not bow down to the calf please move out from this side and though all the other tribes of Israel bowed down only the tribe of Levi kept their chastity to God. They did not bow down or kiss the golden calf. So the eleven other tribes of Israel stood on the side of the calf and only one tribe was chased. God was so happy with them. “I will love you and you will be My friend for eternity. I will always walk with you.’ and that’s why the sons of Levi were especially chosen to move the tabernacle of God. In these last days when He says that HE will only purify the sons of Levi when the rest of the world is following all those demons and all the false gods in the world jumping up and down, screaming, falling. When the rest of the world is following the world dancing and kissing all the false gods in the world, only those like the sons of Levi who keep their chastity to the true God will He purify and take them to heaven. I hope all of you will become like the sons of Levi. I will end with this.

So let’s repeat what we have learned. He said that before the great and dreadful coming of the day of the Lord. He will send Elijah. And now do you believe that He will send Elijah in these last before Jesus will come again? Then who is Elijah? If you look in the Bible here it’s the voice of one crying in the wilderness. We have here a voice and we have one crying in the wilderness. There is a voice and the one crying. So what is Elijah? What’s the first mission of Elijah? To join the heavenly Father with all the prodigal sons to this earth and He is the intercessor. Joining them together it’s like a match maker between a young man and a young woman so that they can get married. Then can the pope or cardinals or pastors joined the heavenly Father to the children of this earth? How can sinners join God and the people? Only Jesus can do that. So Jesus is also an Elijah. So before Jesus comes there’s Elijah who join the heavenly Father and children. So Jesus is a true Elijah. Did He not come down to this earth and join the heavenly Father with the children on this earth? Jesus said, “I am the way, no one can go to the Father except through Me.” So you must listen to me and you must be embraced by the Father. He is your Real Father. He is the true Elijah who joined the heavenly Father and the children. Then who else? The Holy Spirit, the Third God. The latter rain of the Holy Spirit is also an Elijah. Because the Holy Spirit can only join the heavenly Father and the children on this earth. Also the Word of God, the almighty Word of God which created the heavens and the earth. The Word of God can join the heavenly Father and the children on this earth. This Three is Elijah. Then who are we? We are a speaker. We are the voice of the One who cries in the wilderness. That’s why do not be deceived by those who say, ‘I am Elijah.’ They are all the same deceivers, they are all fake.

I hope that you will listen to the voice of Jesus and the Holy Spirit. Do not ever look at that human channel; do not look at the Jesus who does not even come out of elementary school. If they had just look at Jesus they would have been saved but instead they picked up what is the educational background was like, where he was born, his job. We should never be like that. People, humans are nothing. They are ones who return to the dust.

So why does He send Elijah? First, for the Holy Spirit. All the people of this world waited for the latter rain in order to give the latter rain He sends Elijah. Is God not love? Yes.

Secondly, we know that Jesus the King of the universe who will appear again. But Elijah will be the one who will prepare His way.

Third, just as Jesus prophesied two thousand years ago. The prodigal who wandered in the world returns into the Father’s arms. All the religions in this world, Christians and others will all become one. Because there’s only one truth in this universe.

Fourth, to regenerate and sanctify. No matter how much we cut our hair and try to become a monk and fast or pray all night. When we meet Elijah we will become regenerated and sanctified. Fourth, in order to accept the King Jesus on His second advent. Then we can be the ones who will accept ‘Oh, Jesus we have waited for You.’ and then Jesus takes them on the clouds to heaven.

So Elijah is the greatest gift of God. I hope that you will accept this gift and receive all the blessings and all go to heaven.
