How loyal are you to Jesus Christ?

Readers of Plain Truth are responsible for the KNOWLEDGE they receive!
Are you ACTING on it?
Do you know what JOB will be your reward
in the literal GOVERNMENT of God soon to be set up on this earth?

 

WORLD events are speeding up. Prophecy is being fulfilled with almost terrifying speed!

Strange things are happening in the weather. Experts are becoming alarmed. Gigantic earthquakes and volcanic eruptions are in the making.

Great nations are being brought low by drought. Literally dozens of specific prophecies are being fulfilled.

Why? Because the LIVING Christ is very much in charge.

Seated at the right hand of God the Father, in heaven, is the LIVING Jesus Christ. According to His master plan, He is beginning, in a new way, to intervene in human affairs.

His POWER is supreme.

 

Christ is Our "HEAD"

For those who truly believe in the inspired Word of God, Christ is our living Head — our Master, our Ruler, our Boss.

He has ascended to the right hand of God the Father. It is He who "shall JUDGE the quick and the dead at His appearing and His kingdom" (II Tim. 4:1).

For God "hath put all things under His feet, and gave Him to be the HEAD over all things to the church, which is His body, the fullness of Him that filleth all in all" (Eph. 1:22-23).

We know that HE is the one actually in charge of world events. And He is directly in charge of this very Work — the Work which God has raised up to WARN OUR PEOPLES OF THEIR SINS (Isaiah 58:1), and to foretell the soon-coming government of God as a warning or WITNESS to all nations (Mat. 24:14).

Yes, Jesus Christ is the literal, active HEAD of this Work — the WORLD TOMORROW broadcast, Plain Truth magazine, The AMBASSADOR COLLEGE CORRESPONDENCE COURSE, etc. That is WHY we speak and write with such authority and POWER. That is why we are able to be specific with the prophecies of God's Word — not beating around the bush with sweet platitudes of vague generalities. That is why we KNOW what is about to happen in world events — when, where and why.

The living Christ — who directs this Work — thunders to you: "Not everyone that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that DOETH the will of my Father which is in heaven" (Mat. 7:21).

 

Prove the Truth and ACT

You, personally, need to be a DOER of the things you hear through this Work — through these very pages of Plain Truth magazine, month by month and year by year! Of course, you need to check anything you hear from any source to be sure it is GOD'S will. But do you just sit around, year after year, and theorize about it — meanwhile fallowing the rest of this world's society like a dumb sheep?

Or do you set yourself to think, study and PROVE what is God's will through His Word, the Bible?

God says: "PROVE all things; hold fast that which is good" (I Thess.5:21).

God reveals that the people of Berea in Paul's day were a good example of how you ought to hear our message — or that of anyone who is sincere and who is fallowing the Bible. Luke writes: "These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so" (Acts 7:11).

First, notice that the Bereans received the word with a ready mind — being quick to accept what was obviously based on God's Word and His Law. To back this up, they searched the Scripture daily — really STUDYING the Bible and not taking anything for granted one way or the other. Also, seeing that Paul's message was indeed based on the Bible over all, they studied with a positive attitude — not negatively, sarcastically or deliberately trying to "chip away" at what he was teaching.

In type, a modern apostle Paul is preaching to you through this very Work! You need to GRASP what is happening and RESPOND to it with an open heart and a willing and zealous mind!

God says: "For not the hearers of the law are just before God, bat the DOERS of the law shall be justified" (Romans 2:13).

Just realizing, understanding and agreeing that this Work is being used to prophesy the major events now beginning to unfold in world affairs and to teach the true way of life revealed in the Bible is not enough. God says you must be a DOER of the Word — and not a hearer only (James 1:22). You need to realize the importance of the knowledge you are receiving through Plain Truth and Put it to work in your life!

But do you?

 

You Were Born To RULE

Actually, the whole purpose of your human existence is to qualify to be literally her n into the Kingdom of God. That Kingdom is a family grown great into a war id government.

In the very beginning of the Bible, God said: "Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have DOMINION over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth" (Gen. 1:26). Immediately we notice that we are made after God's likeness — potentially capable of RULING as does God Himself.

Therefore, in the very beginning God gave man "dominion" or RULE over every other creature on the earth. For man was being trained in right government — the lessons of how to exercise authority properly.

Are you learning that lesson?

 

The "Fall"

The third chapter of Genesis tells the story of the so-called "fall" of man.

Actually, man didn't "fall" at all — for he took the very first opportunity to sin which was given him. His human nature was evil from the beginning. God created him with that human nature, of course, but gave him the mind power to rule over it, if Adam had wanted to.

God Almighty purposed that man be allowed to write bitter lessons in human suffering during this first six thousand years of human history. He has allowed man to go his own way — devise his own systems of government, religion, education, society, etc. In the end, when he has been taught the lesson he has been writing in human suffering, man will realize how wrong are his own ways and how much BETTER the ways of God !

Notice now, in Genesis 3, how Satan got Eve to thinking that God's ways were "unfair." After being commanded by God not to eat of the tree containing a bad mixture of good AND EVIL, the woman answered Satan's challenging question by reminding him that God had said she and Adam would die if they touched or ate of this tree (verses 2-3).

"And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods knowing good and evil."

Immediately, Satan began to put God in a bad light — implying that God was UNFAIR. Satan gave the distinct impression that God was "afraid" that Adam and Eve would become as smart as He was if they experienced evil and ate of this tree! Here Satan began to cause the woman to "REASON" in her mind various motives for what God said rather than simply OBEYING HER MAKER!

This is a vital principle to understand for human beings have been doing THIS VERY THING ever since!

This is WHY Adam and Eve could not be given eternal life, glory and honor right then! For they would have had Power WITHOUT RESPONSIBILITY! As members of God's own family — GLORIFIED Spirit Beings — Adam and Eve might have literally WRECKED part of this universe before being stopped by God the Father! At the time of the "temptation" they were obviously NOT READY to be given eternal lip e and POWER in the Family of God!

God will not save any soul He cannot RULE!

From the very beginning of creation, the problem has been whether man would OBEY his God — or would argue, "reason," justify self, and use human excuses to DISOBEY his Maker.

 

How Do You REACT to God's Instructions?

God says: "To this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and TREMBLES at my word " (Isa. 66:2).

When something is clearly shown you out of the Bible, God's inspired word do you automatically say: "Yes sir!" to God? Do you begin immediately to DO what God's Word has instructed?

How do you REACT?

Any captain in the army, any boss or supervisor over any organization anywhere is concerned with this problem. This is not some strange or unusual Principle. This is the BASIC concern of Almighty God about YOU, personally! Once you have been shown something from the Bible, will you zealously RESPOND to orders from your Creator?

What kind of "kingdom" do you think God has, anyway? Do you think He is going to have a lot of REBELS running loose in His Kingdom forever and ever?

Certainly this is not the way many preachers of our present society look at it ! They have a theoretic, vague approach to a kind of sentimental, namby-pamby, fuddy-duddy, doddering old being off in the sky somewhere whom they dub "god"! But the real GOD of heaven they know not! He is planning a literal government on this earth to be composed of the glorified Saints who have learned to OBEY their Maker!

It is time you learned this fundamental and all important TRUTH! Nothing could be more basic or more easy to understand — for those who are willing.

Throughout His word, God tells us NOT to use human reason in deciding how we want to worship Him. Rather, He commands us to worship Him — NOT "according to the dictates of our consciences" — but according to His Word! In this principle of His very character, He has always been the same — yesterday, today and forever.

And in instructing ancient Israel about their worship, God commanded: "When the Lord thy God shall cut off the nations from before thee, whither thou goest to possess them, and thou succeedeth, and dwellest in their land; take heed to thyself that thou be NOT snared by following them, after that they be destroyed from before thee; and that thou inquire NOT after their gods, saying, how do these nations serve their gods? Even so will T do likewise" (Deut. 12:29-30).

Here God plainly shows that it is REBELLION to try to adopt the customs of the people of this world — the ancient pagans or the "educated pagans" of today — and attempt to worship the living Creator according to these vain human traditions!

Rather, as Jesus said: "Man shall not live by bread alone, but by EVERY WORD OF GOD (Luke 4:4).

Therefore, God tells ancient Israel and us today in Deuteronomy not to follow pagan traditions in attempting to worship Him. "Thou shalt NOT do so unto the Lord thy God; for every abomination to the Lord, which He hateth, have they done unto their gods; for even their sons and their daughters have they burnt in the fire to their gods. What thing so ever I command you, observe to do it: thou shalt not add thereto, nor diminish from it" (verses 31-32).

Notice!

God commands His people to do EXACTLY what He says! We are not to "add" to God's word or instructions — bringing in foolish pagan customs and ideas which "seem right" to a man (Prov. 14:12). Neither are we to take from God's word or water down or diminish His instructions in ANY way!

Yet, today, we behold the pitiful spectacle of professing ministers of Jesus Christ twisting, perverting, distorting and Blaspheming the name of the God of heaven by openly advocating disobedience to this or that of God's commandments, saying that certain books in the Bible were not inspired or ought not to be there or ought not be obeyed, or even advocating their Satan inspired doctrine that "God is dead"!

That true God of the Bible who seems "dead" to some of these smart-aleck "intellectuals" is now beginning to intervene dramatically in human affairs! Soon, very soon He will literally SHAKE every island and every mountain on this earth out of its place in the greatest earthquake in human history!

Before this present generation is past, the entire earth will truly Know that the God of the Bible is very much ALIVE and in charge of this earth and the entire universe!
