I WILL BUILD MY ECCLESIA

THE ECCLESIA OF CHRIST

THE END OF THE YEAR 2013 IS COME UPON US LIKE IT STARTED YESTERDAY. I WILL LIKE TO LEAVE A WORD TO CAP UP THE YEAR.

I CHOSE THE TOPIC 'THE ECCLESIA OF CHRIST' BECAUSE IT IS THE BEST I CAN TALK ABOUT AND SINCE THIS IS WHAT IS UPPER MOST ON THE HEART OF THE KING OF KINGS AND THE LORD OF LORDS, THE GOD OF ABRAHAM, ISAAC AND JACOB, I WILL WITH THE HELP OF THE HOLY SPIRIT SAY A FEW WORD IN THIS REGARD, HOPING IT WILL MAKE MEANING TO A FEW AT LEAST.

Christ is coming back again, no matter how unreasonable it has become to the rational mind. It looks unreal to a lot of Christians, I mean professed Christians, they practice religion, play 'church' and go through religious motions just to satisfy the curiosity of the society they live in and their minds, that they at least are not Atheists or humanists.

The beast's (serpent or Dragon) government over the Earth has polarised the faith of many, and in Churches today without number, we see the Beast ruling through the doctrine of 'BAAL' and 'MAMMON'. What we see today in the Church is saddening, all programs have to do with the captivity of men to the world of darkness, the focus of the Church is more towards darkness than towards the light of the Sun of Righteousness that rises with healing in His wings (CHRIST), come and be blessed mean money and you will prosper is nothing spiritual but in the acquisition of Mammon. It is a final play out of the last joker of the Beast and his stolen government over the Earth through the Church. I will actually not be surprised when the Church start advertising the seal of the beast to their members, because in their covetousness, they have totally lost focus and embraced a god unknown to the spiritual Israel from the beginning.

Many came to Christ without coming to the full realization of what it means to be born from above, many embraced Christianity because it is sociable and acceptable, we have lost the real essence of why our Lord laid down His life and have embraced mediocrity. Some came to Christ as the last option when there seems to be no other solution and will willingly go back in the face of the slightest persecution and trials because they were not discipled and do not understand that when they accepted Christ they signed away their earthly life and embraced the life of total sacrifice, the life of the cross.

The reason Christ came was so that all that was lost to the serpent in the garden might be restored. Categorically speaking our salvation means getting to live a life that is above sin, i.e dominion over the desire for sin and getting the immortality of the body that comes only by been perfected and seeing perfection, this is the salvation of our body, because we need it to remain on Earth as was the royal decree passed at creation. This of course can only come by systematic development through the workings of the Spirit until Christ is fully formed in us. There is the formation of the fullness of Christ which can only be given to those that have been found worthy of their calling, in whom there is no longer found the workings of the venom of the serpent which of a necessity leads to death, they are the ones without blemish and spots, they are chaste and pure before Him because no impure thing will inherit His kingdom. Brethren, to come to the culmination of this Life that is Eternal in nature, we must first come to the way, learn the truth and become the truth by consuming it, I mean the Bread of Life through the revelation of the Spirit then and only then can you be entitled to enter into Life which will swallow up death in victory and in short it is called immortality. So the real meaning of the good-news is the message of immortality that has been brought to light by the gospel of Christ.

ROMANS 2 VERSES 5 TO 11
EMPHASIS ON VERSE 7 PLEASE
5 But after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up unto thyself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God;

6 Who will render to every man according to his deeds:

7To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life:

8 But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath,

9 Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile;

10 But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile:

11 For there is no respect of persons with God.

2 TIMOTHY 1 VERSE 10

10 But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel:

REVELATION 5 VERSE 9 TO 10
9 And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;

10 And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.

I HOPE YOU SEE THAT HEAVEN IS NOT WHERE WE ARE GOING TO REIGN BUT ON EARTH, SO WE NEED THE BODY

REVELATION 11 VERSE 15,

15And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord Pride Roni Louis
, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.

DANIEL 2 VERSES 39 TO 44
39 And after thee shall arise another kingdom inferior to thee, and another third kingdom of brass, which shall bear rule over all the earth.

40 And the fourth kingdom shall be strong as iron: forasmuch as iron breaketh in pieces and subdueth all things: and as iron that breaketh all these, shall it break in pieces and bruise.

41 And whereas thou sawest the feet and toes, part of potters' clay, and part of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; but there shall be in it of the strength of the iron, forasmuch as thou sawest the iron mixed with miry clay.

42 And as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken.

43 And whereas thou sawest iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay.

44 And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever.

DANIEL 7 VERSES 12, 13, 14, 17 18 AND 22
12 As concerning the rest of the beasts, they had their dominion taken away: yet their lives were prolonged for a season and time.

13 I saw in the night visions, and, behold, one like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of days, and they brought him near before him.

14 And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed.

17 These great beasts, which are four, are four kings, which shall arise out of the earth.

18 But the saints of the most High shall take the kingdom, and possess the kingdom for ever, even for ever and ever.

22 Until the Ancient of days came, and judgment was given to the saints of the most High; and the time came that the saints possessed the kingdom.

THE ECCLESIA OF CHRIST

Now, let's look at the word, "ecclesia". This Greek word appears in the New Testament approximately 115 times. That's just in this one grammatical form. It appears also in other forms. And in every instance, except three, it is wrongly translated as "church" in the King James Version. Those three exceptions are found in Acts 19:32, 39, 41. In these instances the translators rendered it "assembly" instead of "church." But, the Greek word is exactly the same as the other 112 entries where it was changed to "church".

In Acts 19, "ecclesia" is a town council: a civil body in Ephesus. This is usually a body of rulers appointed by the Emperor, who by virtue of their exceptional abilities bring to reality everything the Emperor has in mind and which he has hiterto laid bare on the table, by their training and abilities, this things will become a reality in a short while and either he is there or not the town runs perfectly the way the emperor wants it under the supervision of this men called 'ecclesia' since there were other ecclesias then Christ said I will build my ecclesia and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

What Christ was invariably saying was, I WILL BUILD MY ECCLESIA, MY ASSEMBLY OF RULERS, MY JUDGES, MY BODY AND BRIDE, THEY ARE THE ONES THAT WILL RULE THE EARTH WITH ME IN THE AGE TO COME, THEY ARE A BODY CALLED MY BRIDE, THEY ARE A CALLED OUT ONES FROM THE WORLD, HER GOD AND HER SYSTEM OF RUNNING AFFAIRS AND EVEN FROM THEMSELVES, THEY WILL BE MADE WHOLE BY EATING MY FLESH AND DRINKING MY BLOOD, THEY SHALL BE BUILT UPON THE REVELATION OF MY KINGLY POSITION AS THE SON OF THE LIVING GOD, WHO IS THE LION OF THE TRIBE OF JUDAH, WHO WILL REIGN OVER THE WHOLE OF CREATION AND THE WHOLE OF THE UNIVERSE WILL EXPERIENCE GODS RULE AND THE DOMINION OF HIS WILL AGAIN, AS IT WAS IN THE BEGINNING. THROUGH THIS MY SELECTED, CHOSEN AND CALLED OUT ONES, I SHALL RIDE LEADING THEM AS MY ARMY, DARKNESS SHALL FLEE AND BE JUDGED FOREVER, BECAUSE THEY SHALL BE JUDGES, JUDGING HUMANITY IN HER WICKEDNESS AND ANGELS ALSO. NO MATTER WHAT THE DEVIL, THAT OLD DRAGON WHO WAS INITIALLY CALLED THE SERPENT DOES, THE GATES OF HELL WHICH HE RULES OVER SHALL NOT PREVAIL AGAINST THIS WORK THAT I AM ABOUT TO DO, IT WILL BE FINISHED AND THEY SHALL REIGN WITH ME FOREVER AS MY KINGS AND PRIESTS. THIS IN MY OWN WORDS OF EXPLANATION ABOUT WHAT CHRIST WAS TELLING PETER. mind you, with this throng of rulers shall come the countless multitude too.

He will come back when the rulers are complete. They shall be without blemish, spot or wrinkle. They will be as perfect as their father in Heaven is perfect. Upon this ones shall the world look and know that there is a God in Israel.

They shall be made perfect by submitting to His standards for them, (EVEN IF IT MEANS SUFFERING AND DYING LIKE THE APOSTLES) they shall not bother for their own life's, look around you today, do you not see the persecution starting from everywhere? Nigeria is witnessing the persecution of Christians in the northern part of the country, (CAN YOU STAND NOW FOR CHRIST AND BE READY TO DIE IF BOKO HARAN (A TERRORIST GROUP) CATCHES UP WITH YOU IN THE NORTH OR YOU WILL DENY HIM?) everywhere you turn for news now what you see is devastations and wars. Man slaughtering man, the tree of the Knowledge of good and evil has come to its fullness, the fruit is terrible. The whole of creation is groaning for the manifestation of the Sons of God, creation groans because she was subjected to the curse of vanity with the hope that the sons will arrive in maturity to release them from the curse from Eden.

Do you understand that we are on a race of who comes out best? God will not settle for mediocre s and hypocrites, He needs Sons like Christ and He will get them because that was the reason Christ died. If you are found wanting you will loss your place and your lot shall be given to another, He will not wait forever, the trumpets have started sounding for their final preparation of the bride to go into the marriage chamber with the Groom, will you be one of the 5 wise or the 5 foolish virgins? when the persecution that is gradually building up now gets to its fullness will you still be standing for Christ?

If you are part of His Ecclesia, which is the assembly of those found Holy that will partake of the first resurrection, on whom the second death has no power (Rev 20 vs 4 to 6), then you must face up to making sure that the divine nature comes to fullness in you. If Christ or the Divine nature does not come to fullness in you then you will loss your place to another, God is not a respect-er of persons, it is time to stop playing Church and drop all religious attitude, humble yourself under His mighty hand, then and only then can and will you find the way laid bare for the divine nature to come to fullness.

I look on in total shock at how men and women who are supposed to look into the mysteries of Christ till they are granted the keys to the kingdom so that they can become home-owners, bringing fourth treasures for the body of Christ to be built on have resulted to merchandising the soul of men and use the gospel to fulfil their desires of stealing the glory of God.
They have resulted to lies to fill their bulging tummies, and men call them fathers while they know that they have not fathered anyone the Lord can truly call His own, if Christ appear today, will He meet you watching and gladly waiting for Him no matter your situation? will you with gladness in your heart see Him arrive or your eyes will be clouded by your earthly desires so much that you will not hear the trumpet of the message calling unto perfection before His return?

many have decided the side they belong to, they know that all they do is to try and make the devil king as long as possible, we know there are those that have signed out their soul to the devil in exchange for the perishable things of the earth but will you allow them rule you in ignorance and keep you in their company on the day of judgement? seek the Lord now when you can still find Him, search for Him now that He is still near, least by the time you wake up from your slumber the doors might have been closed and there won't be space for you any more. The devil is smart, I tell ministers not to ever forget that, he is going to pay dearly yet he wants to make sure that you join him in paying, do you know how he is doing this? by telling the Church that God does not have a standard. you just accept Christ as your Lord and personal saviour and you can live life the way you want, dance your eternity away while he feeds fat on the time he is wasting, God will not keep waiting for you to wake up from your slumber.

TODAY IS THE DAY OF SALVATION, WAKE UP BRETHREN, GOD HAS A STANDARD AND IT IS HIGH, THE ONLY GOOD THING IS THAT YOU ONLY HAVE TO OBEY AND KEEP THE FIRE BURNING ON THE ALTAR OF YOUR HEART, THEN HE WILL LOCATE YOU TO A PLACE WHERE YOU CAN BE PROPERLY AND SYSTEMATICALLY DISCIPLED IN THE WAYS OF THE LORD AND THE HIGH CALLING OF GOD IN CHRIST JESUS.

I PRAY FOR YOU TODAY, IF TRULY IN YOUR HEART YOU WANT TO KNOW HIM AND HIS WAYS, THE LORD WILL EITHER TUTOR YOU TO AN EXTENT BEFORE SENDING YOU OUT TO DISCIPLE OTHERS OR SEND YOU TO THOSE HE HAS CHOSEN AS APOSTLES IN THIS END TIME WHOM HE HAS SPECIALLY DISCIPLED LIKE PAUL BY HIMSELF IN OTHER THAT THEY MIGHT DISCIPLE OTHERS, SO THAT YOU CAN INCLINE YOUR HEART TO WISDOM. MAKE HASTE WHILE THE SUN STILL SHINES.

HAPPY NEW YEAR.
