IS THIS WHAT YOU ARE ASKING FOR????
Samuel anointed Saul.
Ahab was king!
Herod was privileged to have a royal Seat in the Temple!
Jesus, on the other hand preached to, gave everlasting freedom to individuals like "THE WOMAN AT JACOBS WELL"
The Samaritan woman was trash in the hypocrites' eyes, yet they choose Barabbas instead of freedom of expression.
Yes, there is plenty of wrong, sin, but God loved, called sinners to repentance.
In fact, God so loved the worlds so much, he forgave the ones that had the greatest sin, the ones that delivered Jesus
to be crucified, he forgave, ask the father to not lay this sin to their charge.
You see, like having billions (used to be millions", dollars in the bank, it does not do you any good unless you
draw out, share with others.
Jesus gave living waters to the Samaritan woman, she ran as fast, throwing her Waterhouse down, and shared this with her
village.
In fact, by her sharing, she won the entire village to Jesus.
Remember this...
Isaiah 65:2-25 (KJV) I have spread out my hands all day unto a rebellious people, who walketh in a way that was not good,
after their own thoughts.
A people that provokes me to anger continually to my face; that sacrifices in gardens, and burneth incense upon altars
of brick.
Which remain among the graves, and lodge in the monuments, which eat swine's flesh, and broth of abominable things is
in their vessels.
Which says, stand by thyself, come not near to me; for I am holier than thou. This is smoke in my nose, a fire that burneth
all day.
Behold, it is written before me: I will not keep silence, but will recompense, even recompense into their bosom,
Your iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together, saith the LORD, which have burned incense upon the mountains,
and blasphemed me upon the hills: therefore, will I measure their former work into their bosom.
Thus, saith the LORD, As the new wine is found in the cluster, and one saith, destroy it not; for a blessing is in it:
so, will I do for my servants' sakes, that I may not destroy them all.
And I will bring forth a seed out of Jacob, and out of Judah an inheritor of my mountains: and mine elect shall inherit
it, and my servants shall dwell there.
And Sharon shall be a fold of flocks, and the valley of Achor a place for the herds to lie down in, for my people that
have sought me.
But ye are they that forsake the LORD, that forget my holy mountain, that prepare a table for that troop, and that furnish
the drink offering unto that number.
Therefore, will I number you to the sword, and ye shall all bow down to the slaughter: because when I called, ye did not
answer; when I spake, ye did not hear; but did evil before mine eyes, and did choose that wherein I delighted not.
Therefore, thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, my servants shall eat, but ye shall be hungry: behold, my servants shall drink,
but ye shall be thirsty: behold, my servants shall rejoice, but ye shall be ashamed:
Behold, my servants shall sing for joy of heart, but ye shall cry for sorrow of heart, and shall howl for vexation of
spirit.
And ye shall leave your name for a curse unto my chosen: for the Lord GOD shall slay thee, and call his servants by another
name:
That he who blesses himself in the earth shall bless himself in the God of truth; and he that sweareth in the earth shall
swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hid from my eyes.
For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.
But be ye glad and rejoice forever in that which I create: for, behold, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people
a joy.
And I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in my people: and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the
voice of crying.
There shall be no more thence an infant of days, nor an old man that hath not filled his days: for the child shall die
a hundred years old; but the sinner being a hundred years old shall be accursed.
And they shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat the fruit of them.
They shall not build, and another, inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat for as the days of a tree are the days
of my people, and mine elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands.
They shall not labor in vain, nor bring forth for trouble; for they are the seed of the blessed of the LORD, and their
offspring with them.
And it shall happen, that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.
The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall eat straw like the bullock: and dust shall be the serpent's
meat. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain, saith the LORD.
You see Satan, and his servants know that they like the Devil hath but a brief time.
Revelation 12:10-17 (KJV) And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, now, is, come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom
of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God Day
and night.
And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto
the death.
Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil
has come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a brief time.
And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child.
And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where
she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.
And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of
the flood.
And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of
his mouth.
And the dragon was wroth with the woman and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments
of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.
This woman is the church, Mary, the virgin, she gave birth to this Messiah, he defeated Satan at the cross, and Satan
and his "MINIDTERS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS"...transformed into the minister of righteousness, they have but a brief time.
His servant has said "IF HE GOES DOWN, HE WILL TAKE THE WHOLE WORLD WITH HIM"
That is brief time talk but remember that Jesus said...Mark 13:19-27 (KJV) For in those days shall be affliction, such
as was not from the beginning of the creation which God created unto this time, neither shall be.
And except that the Lord had shortened those days, no flesh should be saved: but for the elect's sake, whom he hath chosen,
he hath shortened the days.
And then if any man shall say to you, Lo, here is Christ; or, lo, he is there; believe him not:
For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even
the elect.
But take ye heed: behold, I have foretold you all things.
But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light,
And the stars of heaven shall fall, and the powers that are in heaven shall be shaken.
And then shall they see the son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.
And then shall he send his angels and shall gather, together his elect from the four winds, from the uttermost part of
the earth to the uttermost part of heaven.
Jesus came as this prophet...Deuteronomy 18:13-22 (KJV) Thou shalt be perfect with the LORD thy God.
For these nations, which thou shalt possess, hearkened unto observers of times, and unto diviners: but as for thee, the
LORD thy God hath not suffered thee so to do.
The LORD thy God will raise up unto thee a Prophet from the midst of thee, of thy brethren, like unto me; unto him ye
shall hearken.
According to all that thou desire of the LORD thy God in Horeb in the day of the assembly, saying, let me not hear again
the voice of the LORD my God, neither let me see this great fire anymore, that I die not.
And the LORD said unto me, they have well-spoken that which they have spoken.
I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall
speak unto them all that I shall command him.
And it shall happen, that whosoever will not hearken unto my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require it
of him.
But the prophet, which shall presume to speak a word in my name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or that shall
speak in the name of other gods, even that prophet shall die.
And if thou say in thine heart, how shall we know the word which the LORD hath not spoken?
When a prophet speaketh in the name of the LORD, if the thing follows not, nor happen, that is the thing which the LORD
hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously: thou shalt not be afraid of him.
Then there was this witness that takes Elijah's place...Matthew 17:10-13 (KJV) And his disciples asked him, saying, why
then say the scribes that Elias must first come?
And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elias truly shall first come and restore all things.
But I say unto you, That Elias has come already, and they knew him not, but have done unto him whatsoever they listed.
Likewise, shall also the son of man suffer of them.
Then the disciples understood that he spake unto them of John the Baptist.
You that are looking for the "TWO WITTNESSES", just keep looking, but Jesus was "THAT PTOPHET, John the
Baptist was here to fulfil Elijah mission.
Both were killed.
You see, Jesus had just come down from the mountain where Peter, James and John saw Moses and Elijah.
Peter wanted to build a tabernacle, three tabernacles, one for each, but these were discussing his, Jesus's decease, and
I'm due Elijah let them know that he, and Moses from there, would not have to die, as many teach you that they must come back
in their flesh body, die, and have fire proceeding out of their mouth to destroy their enemies.
This fire, John tells of this...
Matthew 3:11-12 (KJV) I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I,
whose shoes I am not worthy to bear he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire:
Whose fan is in his hand, and he will thoroughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn
up the chaff with unquenchable fire.
You see, Jesus promises...John 11:25-26 (KJV) Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth
in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:
And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?
I ask you this question? WHY WOULD ELIJAH, AND ELIJAH HAVE TO COME AND DIE, when Jesus...Hebrews 2:8-18 (KJV) Thou hast
put all things in subjection under his feet. For in that he put all in subjection under him, he left nothing that is not put
under him. But now we see not yet all things put under him.
But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honor;
that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man.
For it became him, for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons unto glory, to make the
captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings.
For both he that sanctifies and they who are sanctified are all of one: for which because he is not ashamed to call them
brethren,
Saying, I will declare thy name unto my brethren, amid the church will I sing praise unto thee.
And again, I will put my trust in him. And again, Behold I and the children which God hath given me.
Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that
through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil.
And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.
For verily he took not on him the nature of angels; but he took on him the seed of Abraham.
Wherefore in all things it behooved him to be made like unto his brethren, that he might be a merciful and faithful high
priest in things pertaining to God, to make reconciliation for the sins of the people.
For in that he himself hath suffered being tempted, he is, able to, succor them that are tempted.
You see, Jesus reached all the way to the "FIRST HALF OF DANIELS PROPHECY", pulled the first half of the Seventieth
week, which was the "TRIBULATION", pulled this to the cross, took this curse upon himself, as the above words said,
"IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE TRIBULATION OF THOSE DAYS", meaning that the sun refused to shine for "THREE HOURS",
from Twelve o clock, "HIGH NOON", until Three o clock, and immediately after that "TRIBULATION, there was an
earthquake, and these rose from the graves...Matthew 27:45-54 (KJV) Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the
land unto the ninth hour.
And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? My God, my God, why hast thou
forsaken me?
Some of them that stood there when they heard that, said, This man calleth for Elias.
And straightway one of them ran, and took a sponge, and filled it with vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to
drink.
The rest said, let be, let us see whether Elias will come to save him.
Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost.
And behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks
rent.
And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose,
And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.
Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done,
they feared, saying, truly this was the Son of God.
Of course there are still those "STANDING THERE ", still looking for the "TWO WITTNESSES", and will
be standing there, having not tasted of death, until they see the "LORD COMING IN HIS FATHERS GLORY", as Paul writes...
Colossians 1:26-29 (KJV) Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest
to his saints:
To whom God would make known what the riches of the glory of this mystery is among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you,
the hope of glory:
Whom we preach, warning every man, and instructing every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ
Jesus:
Whereunto I also labor, striving according to his working, which worketh in me mightily.
Is this glory in you?
You see, on the "DAY OF PENTECOST", God places that glory, that hope, the "RICHES OF HIS GLORY", God,
as the "INVISIBLE GOD, THE HOLY GHOST", he wrote this word of God, not on tables of stone, as with Moses, not a
"CALLING FIRE DOWN FROM HEAVEN, TO DESTROY MENS LIVES", as it was with Elijah, John lays his head to the guillotine,
beheaded, calling the Holy Ghost down from heaven, not to destroy, but to "SAVE LIVES", just as Jesus did.
Luke 9:52-56 (KJV) And sent messengers before his face: and they went, and entered a village of the Samaritans, to make
ready for him.
And they did not receive him, because his face was as though he would go to Jerusalem.
And when his disciples James and John saw this, they said, Lord, wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven,
and consume them, even as Elias did?
But he turned, and rebuked them, and said, "Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of.
For the son of man has not come to destroy men's lives, but to save them. And they went to another village.
This one here, he destroys everyone that does not agree with his murdering his own people, rather, gods people.
He knows he has but a brief time, he wants to drag everyone down into "HELL", that is his comfort, the only
comfort he thinks he has.
Be careful of what you ask for, God just might give it to you!
