Judgment is coming! Spare yourselves!
There would be worst case scenario that will take place in the church if the Law will not be established in the church in these last days. Judgment will begin in the house of God. (1 Pet 4:17). On that day,many might fall dead instantly if not will receive a severe punishment. Think of what happen to King David, to the Israelites and to many others who transgressed the Law .
The Law which is the Ten Commandments is a very serious matter to think about. And there are four sin that might become prevalent in the Church if the Law will not be establish.
1. The father of lies (satan) will reign. Lies, boasting and exaggeration will not be extinct.
2. Thief shall arise. They don’t mind if they steal something even if it is small of value. Tithes and offering greatly affect too(they rob God)
3. Adulterous eyes were on the look (look with lust is adultery) (to love the things of the world is also adultery Jam 4:4)
4. Murderers freely come and go (anger is murder)
We are on the last days, and before the return of the Lord Jesus there would be a purification of the Church. God will purify the church to cleanse it and he will do it swiftly by means of judgment. He will pour judgment on earth that will begin first in the house of God.(1 Pet 4:17)
As if there is no thief, adulterer, murderer particularly liar will enter heaven will also be the same in the house of God. It will be like as on the time of the Apostles where Ananias and Sapphira who professed as Christian had been judged. They both expected to enter and be received gladly by the apostles with their generous gift but to their shame, both of them found out to be liars. At the door they fell backward dead. Much blessing will they supposed to receive but instead because they agreed to lie, judgment fall on them.(Acts 5:1-10)
The scripture gives us a lesson to be learn, an example for us as well as a clear warning.
“But God wasn't pleased with most of them, and so they were struck down in the wilderness. Now these things became examples for us so that we won't set our hearts on evil as they did. Let us stop being idolaters, as some of them were. As it is written, "The people sat down to eat and drink and got up to play." Let us stop sinning sexually, as some of them were doing, and on a single day 23,000 fell dead. Let us stop putting the Lord to the test, as some of them were doing, and were destroyed by snakes. You must stop complaining, as some of them were doing, and were destroyed by the destroying angel. These things happened to them to serve as an example, and they were written down as a warning for us in whom the climax of the ages has been realized. Therefore, the person who thinks he is standing securely should watch out that he does not fall”. 1Co 10:5-12
As what mentioned, the church will undergo a process of purification before Christ return. Judgments are the means by which God will clean to prepare the church to be the bride. The bible refers the church as the Bride of Christ (Rev 19:7). And the bride to come in the “marriage of the lamb” is must be without spot and wrinkles. Her garments must be purely white without any dirt or stains.
Notice what it said in the scripture, How blessed are those who wash their robes so that they may have the right to the tree of life and may go through the gates into the city! Rev 22:14. In other version,“Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.(KJV)
In the same way, as the law is perfect to convert, renew, reform the soul-psyche-mind, the law is altogether perfect to wash and cleans our robes and garments and makes us holy. Rev 22:11 says, “Let the holy person continue to be holy”.
Judgment is coming! Spare yourself! The perfect way to be spare one self from the coming judgment is by surpassing the law. God will base his judgments on the Law because all possible sin a man can do are all covered by the Ten Commandments.
Make every effort to establish the Law in the church especially in our mind.
