The Power of God's Second Prophet

What is the Purpose of Power

June 6, 2004

Dear Friend,

We all desire and crave to have power, because we all want to overcome and free ourselves from our physical, mental and spiritual limitations. This is why we seek to find a purpose and mission for our life, that we may set the right goals, and to motivate ourselves the right way to achieve to gain more POWER, which brings freedom from our limitations.

Humanity has the potential to gain God like power, even to discover the very essence of life, if we were allowed Gen.11:6. This is why God limited us to live in "confusion" as it was "revealed" to the Prophet Daniel 9:7-8. The more we are able to come out of confusion, which is maintained by the Anti-god with power, the freer we are.

This is why God gave us "two ways" to gain power in this world. One way is to maintain confusion, to serve the Anti-god. The other way is to free yourself and others from confusion to gain order and freedom. We are told "there is a way which seems right unto a man, but the end there of are the ways of death" Prov.14:12, our ultimate limitation.

This is why it is a gift of God, through revelation to receive the truth, and "the truth shall make us free" Jn.8:32, to "come out" Rev.18:4 of confusion. This is why new discoveries, which would help humanity to advance are held back by the government and the powers that be.

God limited us by giving us our evil "spirit of man" ICor.2:11, and by hiding the truth Mat.13:35, and by making us dying Gen.2:16,17, that we would become wise too late in our lives, when nobody listen to us, causing the generation gap.

Our Creator Jesus Eph.3:9 to maintain confusion, pre-ordained us to serve the Anti-god Jn.8:44; 2Cor.4:4 not Him. This is why the "whole world is deceived" Rev.12:9 and worship the Anti-god, religiously, as the people did in Noah's day Mat.24:37. Christ is using Satan to "SHUT up the Kingdom of God" Mat.23:13, to keep us in confusion, to experience evil to fulfill His purpose.

Jesus gives Revelations and Power according to His timing. This is why when truth is revealed, the Anti-god and his religious, legal and governmental, financial and others systems must oppose it. In this CONFLICT a Christian must exercise God's sacrificial power Jn.15:13 in him, to overcome his limitations created by his FEAR.

The Anti-god gives us power by catering to our human nature / spirit of man, by offering us "license" to avoid "conflict" and to eliminate our fear. This is why ministers of the churches have to have a "license" to preach, while God's servants must reject "licensing."

This is why if you are a true Christian you are like John the Baptist, and Jesus was, who had to "decrease" in status and power, that Jesus must "increase" in status and power Jn.3:30 in His work.

The more spiritual power you have, the more you are like Noah, who had no followers. This is specially true at the "end of the world" Mat.24:37 The more followers a preacher has the closer he is to the Anti-god, using the Anti-god's spirit and power. This is why the Prophets of God were always the "few" in this age of evil.

The purpose of God's power is not to make you look good, and powerful, but to help others to get that way. As I have shown in my previous newsletter, God works and gives power indirectly to us. This is very important to know to differentiate between the power of God and the Anti-god. This is how you "test" the spirit of a minister and others, to see if they have the "spirit of truth" or the "spirit of error" IJn.4:6.

The higher you are in God's government now, or more power God gives you, the LESS you are in the world. This is why Apostle Paul said that "God has set the Apostles last, as they were appointed to death." They were made a spectacle to the world and to the angels and to men ICor.4:9. The SIGN God gave us to recognize His servants is that they are in a CONFLICT between Satan's and God's systems. They are "persecuted" and suffer V.12. They are "defamed" and "made as the filth of the earth" V.13.

This makes it very difficult to accept and respect God's servants and Prophets. We naturally like and trust people who are accepted, popular, successful, and powerful. If we are wise, we follow only those who have an established and a long track record of success. This is why you can't come to God, UNLESS God "calls" you Jn.6:44. God has to do a "work" in you Acts. 13:41, to find, and recognize His Prophets, through whom Christ will "reveal" His truth to you, the "knowledge of salvation" Lk.1:77, to come out of your confusion.

Today the Anti-god has his "many prophets" Mat.24:5. God is only sending His "Two Witnesses" Rev. 11:3 and their FOUR Prophets. God's salvation is a difficult and "narrow" way, which are allowed to be found only by a "few" Mat.7:14 in this age. The "many" is only allowed to find the Anti-god, in this age, or dispensation. The exception to this is the "Great Multitude" of the Gentile Christians Rev.7:9 and the "144,000 Israelites" in this age V4. God loves all of us but draw us to Him in His preordained time periods.

Receiving Power from God

The way God gives power to His Prophets will He give power to you. God's way and the Anti-god's way are opposite in receiving power.

For you to receive power in God's government is the long and difficult road, like His "operation" of salvation is Col.2:12. We must be willing to "endure" the conflict Mat.24:13, to the very end. Christians will be rewarded "when the Son of man shall come" Mat.16:22, or after Christ's second coming. Until then we must be on the difficult and un-popular road which is full of conflict and "sacrifice." We must be willing to GIVE our sacrifice to God, as righteous Abel Gen.4:4.

The process is simple, but difficult to follow, because of our human nature. God requires us to exercise our faith. God's "revelations" of the truth is given to us from His "Faith to (our) faith" Rom.1:17. To have "faith" you must have access to some truth, which you must study, accept and believe. Then you must act on the truth using your faith.

This is when God will let you to fall on your face, and humiliated front of others. This ruin's your credibility, as it did Jesus' and the Apostles, causing a "falling away" of your followers. This is what happened to Christianity, when Jesus did not come back in the first century. This is how Christ maintains the deception of the world for the "many."

After your fall and disappointment, will Christ "comfort" you, and give you new "revelations." This is how Apostle Paul, received the "revelation" of the "mystery" of God Eph.3:3, which Christianity was not allowed to receive yet. Paul and the Apostles had to "decrease" in the world, humiliated by God "forsaking" them, as He did Jesus on the cross Mat.27:45b. The more power God gives you in the New Testament, the less affective and powerful you are in the world to reach others. This is the opposite how the Anti-god's system works. This is why Satan's "ministers of righteousness" are prosperous and powerful 2Cor.11:15, to deceive you as Satan, who transformed himself to appear not as "lawless" but as an "angel of light" V.14.

You are required to prove your and God's "righteousness" to your detriment Rom.12:2, as Abel proved it for himself, losing his life as Jesus and the Apostles did. It is not enough to "believe" for the "devils also believe" Jams.2:19. You must prove your belief in the trials of fire as Daniel's friends did Dan.3:17.

God's power is "made perfect in weakness" 2Cor.12:9, that no flesh may glory front of God ICor.1:29. To the carnal people and to Christians who are deceived "God's way's" are foolishness ICor.2:14, because they are spiritually blind. The Anti-god's ministers are spiritual, with the Anti-god's spirit, not God's "higher" spirituality. You must not mix the two spirituality.

Miracles, healings, signs, and other supernatural manifestations are NOT a sign of God's spirituality in the New Testament! Here the "spirit that quickens; the FLESH profits NOTHING" said John 6:63. This is one reason the miracles stopped soon after Pentecost. The more spiritual you are, the LESS miracles God will give you. This is why God's First Prophet had NO miracles as the Second Prophet. This keeps the true Christians to a very few, while Satan's followers will be the many.

The Timing of God's 2nd and 3rd Prophets

You see that God gives power according to your willingness to "give up," or "sacrifice" your life for eternal life Mat.16:25. The more obedient you are, the less benefits you receive in the physical world. This makes it most difficult for you to motivate yourself to "grow in grace and knowledge" of God IPet.3:18. You were created to "SAVE" your life. When you are able to "LOOSE" it without you being depressed, is the SIGN of your conversion. Your degree of conversion is shown by how much "bad news" you are able to endure, in the CONFLICT between "good and evil" God created for us. It's your "sacrifice" which establish your credibility with God and man.

How much power a Prophet receives to do his "work," depends on God's timing, or the age or "dispensation" Eph.1:9-10 of God. The power a Prophet receives determined by which administration of God you are called into. God has at the present three religions and kingdoms or administrations. The more spiritual you are, the less power you have to affect this world directly and physically, and you have great spiritual power to affect the world indirectly.

The less spiritual you are, the more power is given to you, to affect directly this world of the Anti-god. This is why the Two Witnesses' First Prophet had to endure the greatest humiliation having no financial, legal or physical power, only spiritual. He was not recognized by any one. This is how he lived outside of this world. God's Second Prophet is given more power that he would have credibility that some could follow him. God's Third Prophet, whose "work" Act.13:41 is to "call" the "Great Multitude" of the Christians, will have great spiritual and less physical power. He will affect the world spiritually and physically. He will have a direct and also even more indirect, spiritual affect on the angel's world. God's Fourth Prophet will have little spiritual, but great physical, and its religious, financial and legal power to warn the carnal world. These two Prophets together will greatly "torment" the population of the world, and the angels to warn them of their idolatry Rev.11:10.

God's Second Prophet has great spiritual, religious and legal power, to establish God's "highest," Kingdom of Heaven on earth, with its laws and its financial principles. He will help a very small spiritual group, God's "elect" Mat.24:22 to "come out" of this world religiously, legally and financially Rev. 18:4 that they may "enter" God's Kingdom of Heaven on earth, God's Place of Safety Rev.12:6. These will "flee" to the Middle East, and from there to the "wilderness of Moab," where God will protect them, while the Beast will rule the world as the greatest tyrant humanity has ever seen.

To gain God's power and through it eternal freedom, you must first switch your allegiance from the Anti-god's way, of lawlessness to the Creator's way of order, defined by His laws! You must change from the way of death, to the way of life Jer.21:8, defined by God's three laws! You must be willing to exchange the Anti-god's spirituality, to God's spirituality. God gave His true spiritual power to Paul and the Apostles in the "mystery" revelations, which is God's full "knowledge of salvation" Lk.1:77 to upset the spiritual world. This power was taken away after Paul and the Apostles died, and "hidden" again Mat.13:35, as it was in the time of Noah Mat.24:37.

The function of God's "Two Witnesses" is to "restore" Mat.17:11 God's "mystery," and by it to give us God's greatest spiritual power, to shake the spiritual world of the ruling, fallen angels of the Anti-god, operating in lawlessness or error.

God by giving to His Prophets great spiritual and physical power, tells us, that the "End of the World," or the rule over humanity of the angels' has come to an end Mat.24:3. We must seek the power of the eternal world, preparing us for the resurrection and eternal life. This present "revelation" gives us the pure motivation to be willing to "sacrifice" our lives for glory and power in the very soon coming Kingdom's of God. Since we have the greatest opportunity knowing the full "knowledge of salvation," we have the greatest rewards waiting for us in Christ's Kingdom of Heaven and His two kingdoms on the earth.

Our motivation can be spiritual, because we are given God's true "knowledge of salvation," giving us the POWER to sacrifice our life, to gain eternal life Mat.16:25. The holy men of old did not have this knowledge and it was much more difficult for them to be motivated as we are. Even now only the "Elects of God" has this knowledge revealed only, to gain this motivation. This window of opportunity is only three and a half years long, or during the public or open ministry of God's Second Prophet. This is why the greatest power is given in God's kingdom only to those, whom God is "calling" Jn.6:44 and if they are willing to accept the call, "counting" the cost of their sacrifice, and willing to "endure" their test of faith. Then God our Father will "choose them" to be one of His "elects" Mat.20:16.

Those whom God is not calling in this age, do not know God, only the Anti-god. These can't "hear" God's calling, using His Elect and the Second Prophet of God. We are told "he that knows God hears us; he that knows not God hears us not" this is how we can be sure and "KNOW the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error" IJn.4:6.

The knowledge of the truth is the greatest power, because it is eternal power! The world's and God's power of His "lower" kingdoms are only temporary power, which will pass away. God IN US is the hope of glory, knowing that God dwells in us.

The Power of Binding and Loosing

God's Second Prophet has the "Key of David" Rev.3:7, which is the "key of knowledge" Lk.11: 52, of the full "knowledge of salvation" Lk.1:77, or God's "mystery," Paul called it "my gospel" Rom.16:25, since it was "revealed" to him only Eph.3:3.

This KEY gives men God's eternal power, to use it, as we all will, when we are "made perfect" in God's sacrificial love, and are born into the "Godhead," or the family of God. This hidden KEY opens to humans the powers of our Creator, to overcome the dominion of angels, by "binding and loosing" Mat.16:19. Moses used this power, and the Anti-god was no match to it. Moses by "loosing" the plagues of God, "destroyed" Egypt, its people and their "gods." We must use God's power, to protect others because the Anti-god has a "short time" Rev.12: 12 to finish his function to "kill" and "destroy" God's people, to make us "perfect" in His sacrificial love Jn.10: 10. The Elects must use this power, that they may help others become God's elect or the Firstfruits of God.

Why? The Elects will reign with Christ balancing "good and evil," as the Anti-god now. They will judge angels, and through them "judge" humans on the earth.

They must learn to protect God's people, that the saints may not need healing from Satan's plagues. In the "sixth seal" Satan also will protect his followers, but later must "destroy" them for disobeying God. The Anti-god's ministers will mimic God's servants, as in Moses' day. In the showdown between the two God's servants, God's like Moses will prevail. At the end of the "sixth seal," (we are in it now) you will not survive.

Conflicts must arise because God's and the Anti-god's systems are opposite. If you as God's servant obey God, you must "disobey" the Anti-god. The issue of priority and authority settles the question, as with Jesus front of the Jewish Sanhedrin, and Pilate the Roman prosecutor, and front of king Herod.

When God's Elect who have finished their suffering stage of development, and will be brought into courts, the Elect will testify to the authorities of the Anti-god. The Anti-god's representatives will have a chance to accept the Creator's authority, or they will be "judged" by the Most High God. The saints will have the power to "bind" the power of these human beings, and the way they determined to judge the Elect, they will be judged.

Those Elect who are not yet "made perfect," will not have this power, that God may show them where they need to overcome their fear. Like Job, we are all blind to our sins and lack. In this case God will use the courts to "judge" us, to help us. When it comes to God's Saints let them be perfect or not perfect, Jesus said: "WOE unto the world because of offences! For it MUST needs be that offences come; but WOE to that man by whom the offences come" Mat.18:7.

Judas betrayed Jesus, and he killed himself. King Herod was stuck by an angel and worms ate him up. Pilate had to commit suicide. Many of the Jews were pulled into stakes to die. Jesus will do this, because He is taking back now His authority from the Anti-god, and He will start by protecting His saints.

God's Prophets will use this power, to establish what is the LAW in the Kingdoms of God, and how that law is going to be used in connection with the kingdom of the Anti-god. As Joseph established the laws of Egypt, and Daniel the laws of Babylon and the Persians and the Medes, now God's Prophets will do the same.

The world will need to accommodate God's laws and Prophets, as they had to Moses. As they forced us to be idolaters, now we must force them to "obey" God's Kingdom's laws. What goes around comes around.

The Power of Noah and John the Baptist

Jesus pointed to Noah how the End of the World will be Mat.24:37. Since the holy spirit or the knowledge of Salvation was not available, no one could follow Noah and his New Covenant with God. This is why only Noah was saved and his family.

This will be the case with God's Second Prophet. It is possible, that the Elect will not follow the Second Prophet, until the very end, just before the Elect will "FLEE" to the Middle East's where the saints will be "gathered" to gather. As Israel had an exodus, we will have one too.

It looks now that God's Elect will be "called" by God's angels, and directed to FLEE as the animals were brought into Noah's ark, just before God "sealed" Noah into the ark. Our exodus will be an individual issu, not a group effort, because God's full salvation is based on an individual voluntary act. We alone, individually must "come out" of the Anti-god's system Rev.18:4 to qualify to "FLEE" to the Middle East, and from there to the "wilderness" Rev.12:6.

This way God's Second Prophet is like Elijah Mat.17:10,11 who had no followers, or so he thought. God's Third Prophet will be like John the Baptist who had many followers, now the Great Multitude.

The time is CRITICAL to act. If you don't act URGENTLY, to receive GOD'S SEAL for protection, it might be too late to save your LIFE, and the LIVES of others, for which you are "called" to be "God's Elect." I pray that you make the choice to be an "Elect," and let me know, that you may be baptized.
