BETHEL is where ABRAHAM and JACOB worshipped GOD, Ge 12, Ge 28
Bethel—BUT LORD destroys altars of Bethel—Amos 3:12-15
BETHEL is where ABRAHAM and JACOB worshipped GOD
Gen 12:6 And Abram passed through the land unto the place of Sichem, unto the plain of Moreh. And the Canaanite was then in the land.
Gen 12:7 And the LORD appeared unto Abram, and said, Unto thy seed will I give this land: and there builded he an altar unto the LORD, who appeared unto him.
Gen_12:8 And he removed from thence unto a mountain on the east of Bethel, and pitched his tent, having Bethel on the west, and Hai on the east: and there he builded an altar unto the LORD, and called upon the name of the LORD.
Gen_13:3 And he went on his journeys from the south even to Bethel, unto the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Bethel and Hai;
Gen 13:4 Unto the place of the altar, which he had made there at the first: and there Abram called on the name of the LORD.
Jacob's Dream
Gen 28:10 And Jacob went out from Beersheba, and went toward Haran.
Gen 28:11 And he lighted upon a certain place, and tarried there all night, because the sun was set; and he took of the stones of that place, and put them for his pillows, and lay down in that place to sleep.
Gen 28:12 And he dreamed, and behold a ladder set up on the earth, and the top of it reached to heaven: and behold the angels of God ascending and descending on it.
Gen 28:13 And, behold, the LORD stood above it, and said, I am the LORD God of Abraham thy father, and the God of Isaac: the land whereon thou liest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed;
Gen 28:14 And thy seed shall be as the dust of the earth, and thou shalt spread abroad to the west, and to the east, and to the north, and to the south: and in thee and in thy seed shall all the families of the earth be blessed.
Gen 28:15 And, behold, I am with thee, and will keep thee in all places whither thou goest, and will bring thee again into this land; for I will not leave thee, until I have done that which I have spoken to thee of.
Gen 28:16 And Jacob awaked out of his sleep, and he said, Surely the LORD is in this place; and I knew it not.
Gen 28:17 And he was afraid, and said, How dreadful is this place! this is none other but the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven.
Gen 28:18 And Jacob rose up early in the morning, and took the stone that he had put for his pillows, and set it up for a pillar, and poured oil upon the top of it.
Gen_28:19 And he called the name of that place Bethel: but the name of that city was called Luz at the first.
Gen_31:13 I am the God of Bethel, where thou anointedst the pillar, and where thou vowedst a vow unto me: now arise, get thee out from this land, and return unto the land of thy kindred.
Gen_35:1 And God said unto Jacob, Arise, go up to Bethel, and dwell there: and make there an altar unto God, that appeared unto thee when thou fleddest from the face of Esau thy brother.
Gen_35:3 And let us arise, and go up to Bethel; and I will make there an altar unto God, who answered me in the day of my distress, and was with me in the way which I went.
Gen_35:6 So Jacob came to Luz, which is in the land of Canaan, that is, Bethel, he and all the people that were with him.
Gen_35:8 But Deborah Rebekah's nurse died, and she was buried beneath Bethel under an oak: and the name of it was called Allonbachuth.
Gen_35:15 And Jacob called the name of the place where God spake with him, Bethel.
CONDITION OF BETHEL NOW--
Amos 1:2,9,10
Judgment on Israel's Neighbors
Amo 1:2 -And he said, The LORD will roar from Zion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem; and the habitations of the shepherds shall mourn, and the top of Carmel shall wither.
· Please read through AMOS ---LORD compares people of GOD as SONS OF ABRAHAM and DAVID (who are MINISTRY the SHEPHERDS) –the ministry today does not understand WORSHIPPING GOD OF ISRAEL, the CREATOR who even HAD SACRIFICED to remove their SINS, Rom. 6;3-7.
· These prophecies are all about GOD’S CHURCH TODAY, the PHILADELPHIA CHRUCH OF GOD
PHILADELPHIA CHRUCH OF GOD
Ministry is compared to people who HAD OTHER gods in history
Amo 1:7 But I will send a fire on the wall of Gaza, which shall devour the palaces thereof:
Amo 1:8 And I will cut off the inhabitant from Ashdod, and him that holdeth the sceptre from Ashkelon, and I will turn mine hand against Ekron: and the remnant of the Philistines shall perish, saith the Lord GOD.
PCG leader compared to TYRUS
They do not know THE BROTHERLY COVENANT,
Amo 1:9 Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Tyrus, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they delivered up the whole captivity to Edom, and remembered not the brotherly covenant:
· Brotherly COVENANT began in Gen 9: 4-5
Gen 9:5 And surely your blood of your lives will I require; at the hand of every beast will I require it, and at the hand of man; at the hand of every man's brother will I require the life of man.
This is not a simple sentence, BUT A GRAVE SIN---
Eze.33:25 Wherefore say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Ye eat with the blood, and lift up your eyes toward your idols, and shed blood: and shall ye possess the land? -----Eze 33:26 Ye stand upon your sword, ye work abomination, and ye defile everyone his neighbour's wife: and shall ye possess the land?
· NOTICE—“EVERYONE”, Eze. 33;26-----DO WE KNOW that LORD could COUNT HIS PEOPLE—
See below how LORD counts ONE BY ONE— The preacher SOLOMON counted (Ecc 7; 26-29) THE LORD WHO GAVE WISDOM to SOLOMON would KNOW BETTER—AND IN THE END, LORD COUNTS one by one, Isa. 27;12
1Ki_4:29 And God gave Solomon wisdom and understanding exceeding much, and largeness of heart, even as the sand that is on the sea shore.
· Consider why LORD gave SUCH WISDOM to SOLOMON---it is to JUDGE GOD’S PEOPLE and make them TO WORSHIP GOD OF WHOLE EARTH without DEFILING HIS NAME AND SABBATHS
· But SOLOMON was also given A THOUSAND WOMEN -- 1Ki_11:3 And he had seven hundred wives, princesses, and three hundred concubines: and his wives turned away his heart.
WHAT THEN DID SOLOMON FIND OUT--
· Ecc_7:27 Behold, this have I found, saith the preacher, counting one by one, to find out the account:
Ecc 7:26 And I find more bitter than death the woman, whose heart is snares and nets, and her hands as bands: whoso pleaseth God shall escape from her; but the sinner shall be taken by her.
Ecc 7:27 Behold, this have I found, saith the preacher, counting one by one, to find out the account:
· HE had 1Ki_11:3 And he had seven hundred wives, princesses, and three hundred concubines: and his wives turned away his heart.
SOLOMON just did not say that, BUT HE COUNTED from
THOUSAND WOMEN, 1 Ki 11;3—
And his wives turned away his heart –
1Ki 11:4 For it came to pass, when Solomon was old, that his wives turned away his heart after other gods: and his heart was not perfect with the LORD his God, as was the heart of David his father.
· David OFFERED PERFECT SERVICE to GOD, 1 Ch 23;29-31
· And people under David kept the SERVICE of Num; 28, and 29
But SOLOMON’S heart was TURNED AWAY from GOD OF ISRAEL
1Ki 11:5 For Solomon went after Ashtoreth the goddess of the Zidonians, and after Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites.
1Ki 11:6 And Solomon did evil in the sight of the LORD, and went not fully after the LORD, as did David his father.
1Ki 11:7 Then did Solomon build an high place for Chemosh, the abomination of Moab, in the hill that is before Jerusalem, and for Molech, the abomination of the children of Ammon.
1Ki 11:8 And likewise did he for all his strange wives, which burnt incense and sacrificed unto their gods.
· I had written how I found out SOLOMON had strange wives in SIGIRIYA, he had written some PROVERBS written in BIBLE on the MIRROR WALL of Sigiriya (He owned a fleet of Ships of Tarshish)---read in No. 1259, 1260 in www.restoringcaptivity.com
WISDOM of GOD in Solomon wrote—
And those WORDS are FOR NEIGHBOUR’S WIVES
As STRANGE WOMEN, (harlots) Prov. 6;26-29
Harlots, or neighbour’s wives would NOT ALLOW A MAN to produce his FRUITS as BABIES, even if they get babies
They are BASTARDS, not the babies of BROTHERS spoken in
Ge 9; 4-9 (prov. 1 teaches how HARLOTS or WOMEN cause BLOOD SHED--
Ecc 7:26 And I find more bitter than death the woman, whose heart is snares and nets, and her hands as bands: whoso pleaseth God shall escape from her; but the sinner shall be taken by her.
The Enticement of Sinners
Her HANDS AS BANDS
Pro 1:8 My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother:
Pro 1:9 For they shall be an ornament of grace unto thy head, and chains about thy neck.
Pro 1:10 My son, if sinners entice thee, consent thou not.
Pro 1:11 If they say, Come with us, let us lay wait for blood, let us lurk privily for the innocent without cause:
Pro 1:12 Let us swallow them up alive as the grave; and whole, as those that go down into the pit:
Pro 1:13 We shall find all precious substance, we shall fill our houses with spoil:
Pro 1:14 Cast in thy lot among us; let us all have one purse:
Pro 1:15 My son, walk not thou in the way with them; refrain thy foot from their path:
Pro 1:16 For their feet run to evil, and make haste to shed blood.
Pro 1:17 Surely in vain the net is spread in the sight of any bird.
Pro 1:18 And they lay wait for their own blood; they lurk privily for their own lives.
Pro 1:19 So are the ways of every one that is greedy of gain; which taketh away the life of the owners thereof.
There are many prophecies for PCG leader ABOUT BANDS--
Psa 119:61 The bands of the wicked have robbed me: but I have not forgotten thy law.
Isa_52:2 Shake thyself from the dust; arise, and sit down, O Jerusalem: loose thyself from the bands of thy neck, O captive daughter of Zion.
BROTHERHOOD of JUDAH and ISRAEL cut off
Zec 11:14 Then I cut asunder mine other staff, even Bands, that I might break the brotherhood between Judah and Israel.
Zec 11:15 And the LORD said unto me, Take unto thee yet the instruments of a foolish shepherd.
Zec 11:16 For, lo, I will raise up a shepherd in the land, which shall not visit those that be cut off, neither shall seek the young one, nor heal that that is broken, nor feed that that standeth still: but he shall eat the flesh of the fat, and tear their claws in pieces.
Zec 11:17 Woe to the idol shepherd that leaveth the flock! the sword shall be upon his arm, and upon his right eye: his arm shall be clean dried up, and his right eye shall be utterly darkened.
· The IDOL SHEPHERD is Gerald Flurry who simply made A DEAD MAN H. W. Armstrong as FATHER in CHURCH!
· HE CANNOT SEE, HE DESTROYS GOD’S FLOCK!!
PCG leader compared to TYRUS
They do not know THE BROTHERLY COVENANT,
Amo 1:9 Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Tyrus, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they delivered up the whole captivity to Edom, and remembered not the brotherly covenant:
· Brotherly COVENANT began in Gen 9: 4-5
WHEN YOU FAST ---LOOSE BANDS OF WICKEDNESS---
Isa_58:6 Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke?
Jer_2:20 For of old time I have broken thy yoke, and burst thy bands; and thou saidst, I will not transgress; when upon every high hill and under every green tree thou wanderest, playing the harlot.
Ezk_3:25 But thou, O son of man, behold, they shall put bands upon thee, and shall bind thee with them, and thou shalt not go out among them:
· WE SEE, THE MINISTRY as sons of Gerald Flurry had BEEN COMMITED SIN on Eze. 33;25, 26!
· And Gerald Flurry as WATCHMAN, and PROPHET, Eze. 33;33 did not CORRECT THEIR SIN of Eze. 33;26, they are the ABOMINATIONS of JERUSALEM , Eze. 16;2, Eze. 22; 1-26 (which had destroyed SERVICE OF GOD)
I had learned the lesson from GW 1—
· She broke SABBATHS around 2008/2009
· And when one day when I told that WE SHOULD HONOUR NEW MOONS, she said ‘NOW DON’T START NEW THINGS!’
· Well, we separated in 2010,
· And I began to keep NEW MOONS (they are BEGININGS OF MONTHS, Nu 28;9-14) ---there are TWELVE MONTHS in a year—(by calendar observing GREATER LIGHT, THE SUN, Ge 1)—(River of Life shows TWELVE MONTHS, Rev. 22; 1-5—and JEWISH CALENDAR has some times 13 months)
The River of Life
Rev 22:1 And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.
Rev 22:2 In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
Isa 66:23 And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the LORD.
· PEOPLE OF GOD are to LEARN what is NEW MOONS which DAVID kept, 1 Ch 23;29-32
1Ch 23:29 Both for the shewbread, and for the fine flour for meat offering, and for the unleavened cakes, and for that which is baked in the pan, and for that which is fried, and for all manner of measure and size;
1Ch 23:30 And to stand every morning to thank and praise the LORD, and likewise at even;
1Ch 23:31 And to offer all burnt sacrifices unto the LORD in the sabbaths, in the new moons, and on the set feasts, by number, according to the order commanded unto them, continually before the LORD:
1Ch 23:32 And that they should keep the charge of the tabernacle of the congregation, and the charge of the holy place, and the charge of the sons of Aaron their brethren, in the service of the house of the LORD.
ANY WHO would NOT KEEP GOD’S SERVICE
In Isa. 66;23, WOULD SUFFER GREATLY, Isa.66 24
Isa 66:24 And they shall go forth, and look upon the carcases of the men that have transgressed against me: for their worm shall not die, neither shall their fire be quenched; and they shall be an abhorring unto all flesh.
· People of world WOULD HATE them who WOULD NOT REPENT and TURN TO KEEP GOD’S SERVICE!
· All WOMEN as NEIGHBOUR’S WIVES representing STRANGE WOMEN as harlots, adulteresses TO REPENT and TEACH A LESSON to other women!
And very soon JESUS CHRIST WOULD COME—

Rev 22:7 Behold, I come quickly: blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this book.
Rev 22:3 And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him:
Rev 22:4 And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads.
NO SUN or MOON (which gets light of sun needed)---Rev 22:5 And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever.
Ecc 7:28 Which yet my soul seeketh, but I find not: one man among a thousand have I found; but a woman among all those have I not found.
SOLOMON found his father, DAVID as SUCH A MAN (though David sinned in the case of Bathsheba –it is he that sinned—but DAVID REPENTED and LORD removed his death penalty--
Kings were given power-- Samuel's Warning Against Kings--1Sa 8:10 And Samuel told all the words of the LORD unto the people that asked of him a king. Read 1 Sam 8; 10-18-)
LORD’S PUNISHMENT to DAVID---(we learn LORD JUDGES EVERY ONE and punishes) 2Sa 12:8 And I gave thee thy master's house, and thy master's wives into thy bosom, and gave thee the house of Israel and of Judah; and if that had been too little, I would moreover have given unto thee such and such things.
2Sa 12:9 Wherefore hast thou despised the commandment of the LORD, to do evil in his sight? thou hast killed Uriah the Hittite with the sword, and hast taken his wife to be thy wife, and hast slain him with the sword of the children of Ammon.
2Sa 12:10 Now therefore the sword shall never depart from thine house; because thou hast despised me, and hast taken the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be thy wife.
2Sa 12:11 Thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will raise up evil against thee out of thine own house, and I will take thy wives before thine eyes, and give them unto thy neighbour, and he shall lie with thy wives in the sight of this sun.
2Sa 12:12 For thou didst it secretly: but I will do this thing before all Israel, and before the sun.
2Sa 12:13 And David said unto Nathan, I have sinned against the LORD. And Nathan said unto David, The LORD also hath put away thy sin; thou shalt not die.
2Sa 12:14 Howbeit, because by this deed thou hast given great occasion to the enemies of the LORD to blaspheme, the child also that is born unto thee shall surely die.

Lawsuits Against Believers
1Co 6:1 Dare any of you, having a matter against another, go to law before the unjust, and not before the saints?
1Co 6:2 Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters?
1Co 6:3 Know ye not that we shall judge angels? how much more things that pertain to this life?
1Co 6:4 If then ye have judgments of things pertaining to this life, set them to judge who are least esteemed in the church.
1Co 6:5 I speak to your shame. Is it so, that there is not a wise man among you? no, not one that shall be able to judge between his brethren?

Of IMAGE OF H. W. Armstrong is what PCG has according to prophecies of

Mal 2:7 -For the priest’s lips should keep knowledge, and they should seek the law at His mouth: for he is the messenger of the LORD of hosts.
· Priests should LEARN SPIRITUAL LAWS of ALMIGHTY CHRIST who came as MESSENGER!
Should people in church hear their LAWS or GOD’S LAWS!
· For instance H. W. Armstrong or Gerald Flurry never made to keep 1ST DAY OF MONTH as “new moon” as David kept, 1 Ch 23;30-31—that was a statute LORD ordained, Nu 28; 9-14
· LORD gave bad statutes when PCG does not keep Sabbaths, even 1st day of a month is a SABBATH, Nu 28; 9-14
When ISRAEL PCG did not keep STATUTES of Covenant, LORD gave BAD STATUTES, Eze.20;25---they became UNRIGHTEOUS, but when they keep statutes which are lawful they become RIGHTEOUS, and would be forgiven, and sins would be forgotten, Eze. 18; 21-22

COMMENTS—these are ridiculous statements—would the WORLD hear Gerald Flurry of his laws???
· CHRIST is LAWGIVER--Rom.8; 2-For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.
When Rom. 8; 2 says so, who is the LAW GIVER??
· It is CHRIST our LORD, and NOT men who die!!
· Should we have colleges in name of men whose work is VAIN!!!
COMMENT--SO WE SEE, PCG leader is trying to get the THRONE OF GOD OF WHOLE EARTH, and get ministry as Levi to UNIFY AROUND him, to GIVE A VISION OF HOPE ---according to vision Gerald Flurry of “WHAT THE WORLD NEEDS!”!
Below is some quotes of article of Gerald Flurry
Why Our College Is Named After Herbert W. Armstrong
By Gerald Flurry • Aug. 22, 2019
(Repeated in TRUMPET on Aug 13th 2022)
The Philadelphia Church of God sponsors a private liberal arts college. Why is our college named Herbert W. Armstrong College? We had many different names to choose from, and spent a considerable amount of time searching for the right name.
Herbert W. Armstrong was one of the most prominent religious leaders of the 20th century.
Learn from COMMENTS to above article of Gerald Flurry “IN No. 1162” that LIVING CHRIST THE SAVIOR came on DAY OF LORD to PURGE THE Levi, Mal 3;1-6, Mal 2, as JUDGE, to also correct them through THRONE ON WHEELS, Dan 7; 9, the prominent religious leader H. W. Armstrong is dead, and his follower Gerald Flurry had made a Covenant with death, and LORD sends a SCOURGE to remove their Covenant with DEATH, Isa 28; 15-19.
H. W. Armstrong did not find eternal life through Rom. 6; 19-23, by baptism unto death of CHRIST, Rom. 6: 2-23!
Read No. 1162 in www.restoringcaptivity.com
But IF WE READ AND LEARN FROM GOD’S BOOK THE BIBLE, we SEE HIS RIGHTEOUS WAYS we are TAUGHT TO KEEP HIS Commandments!
1Co 6:7 Now therefore there is utterly a fault among you, because ye go to law one with another. Why do ye not rather take wrong? why do ye not rather suffer yourselves to be defrauded?
1Co 6:8 Nay, ye do wrong, and defraud, and that your brethren.
1Co 6:9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,
1Co 6:10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
1Co 6:11 And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.
· WHEN PCG was made as having COVENANT of GOD, Eze. 16;4-8, we see how she was cleansed as in an ‘ENGAGEMENT” to be married as wife, Rev. 19;7, 8 in EVERLASTING COVENANT, Eze. 16;60
· Therefore THEY ARE SHAMED, Eze. 16; 15-59
NOW I LEARN their SIN by GW 1—Gentile Witnesses were sanctified BY HIS BLOOD, Eph. 2; 11-13-1Co 6:11 And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God
· After Eph. 2; 3-13, AFTER CLEANSING GENTILES by BLOOD OF CHRIST, ---she SINNED as an ADULTERESS, Rom.7; 3, then SHE WAS WIFE OF NEW COVENANT—
· But GW 1 too broke the NEW COVENANT marriage status—teaching THE LESSON to PCG
To people of GOD, He had given LAWS NOT TO DIVORCE—
Because when A MAN GOES TO ANOTHER WOMAN (as for a neighbour’s wife, Eze. 33;26, ) other than his OWN WIFE—THEY BOTH PUT ASUNDER the MARRIAGES of HIMSELF (BROTHER, Ge 9; 4,5) and the MARRIAGE OF NEIGHBOUR
Teaching About Divorce
Mat 19:1 And it came to pass, that when Jesus had finished these sayings, he departed from Galilee, and came into the coasts of Judaea beyond Jordan;
Mat 19:2 And great multitudes followed him; and he healed them there.
Mat 19:3 The Pharisees also came unto him, tempting him, and saying unto him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause?
Mat 19:4 And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female,
Mat 19:5 And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh?
Mat 19:6 Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
Mat 19:7 They say unto him, Why did Moses then command to give a writing of divorcement, and to put her away?
Mat 19:8 He saith unto them, Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so.
Mat 19:9 And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.
Mat 19:10 His disciples say unto him, If the case of the man be so with his wife, it is not good to marry.
Mat 19:11 But he said unto them, All men cannot receive this saying, save they to whom it is given.
Mat 19:12 For there are some eunuchs, which were so born from their mother's womb: and there are some eunuchs, which were made eunuchs of men: and there be eunuchs, which have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's sake. He that is able to receive it, let him receive it.
As I WROTE BEFORE—(In No. 1387) LORD had made me as a EUNUCH for the Kingdom of Heaven’s sake, Mt. 19;12!---when LORD appointed to execute Judgments for adulteresses, Eze. 23;45-49---I am given knowledge to do so!! AND I WATCH everyone!
I HAD given my Judgment to GW 1 before she divorced—ACCORDING to WORD OF GOD--1Co 6:7 Now therefore there is utterly a fault among you, because ye go to law one with another. Why do ye not rather take wrong? why do ye not rather suffer yourselves to be defrauded?
1Co 6:8 Nay, ye do wrong, and defraud, and that your brethren.
· I HAD TOLD GW 1 not to divorce (I said so in Nov 2011)
· SHE had planned her divorce –and
· Remarried the BROTHER of her former husband
· New husband as a SON of MINISTER, Paul taught—1Ti 1:2 Unto Timothy, my own son in the faith:---- Tit 1:4 To Titus, mine own son after the common faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ our Saviour.
Therefor 1 Co 5;1 applies to Gentile Witness 1 too---
And it is a LESSON FOR ALL GOD’S PEOPLE!
Sexual Immorality Defiles the Church
1Co 5:1 It is reported commonly that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as is not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one should have his father's wife.
1Co 5:2 And ye are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he that hath done this deed might be taken away from among you.
1Co 5:3 For I verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged already, as though I were present, concerning him that hath so done this deed,
1Co 5:4 In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when ye are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ,
1Co 5:5 To deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.
1Co 6:9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,

Amo 3:12 Thus saith the LORD; As the shepherd taketh out of the mouth of the lion two legs, or a piece of an ear; so shall the children of Israel be taken out that dwell in Samaria in the corner of a bed, and in Damascus in a couch.
· Beds and couches, the abominable sins takes place in such places!!!!
Eze 23:17 And the Babylonians came to her into the bed of love, and they defiled her with their whoredom, and she was polluted with them, and her mind was alienated from them.
Eze 23:18 So she discovered her whoredoms, and discovered her nakedness: then my mind was alienated from her, like as my mind was alienated from her sister.
Eze 23:19 Yet she multiplied her whoredoms, in calling to remembrance the days of her youth, wherein she had played the harlot in the land of Egypt.
Eze 23:20 For she doted upon their paramours, whose flesh is as the flesh of asses, and whose issue is like the issue of horses.
Eze 23:21 Thus thou calledst to remembrance the lewdness of thy youth, in bruising thy teats by the Egyptians for the paps of thy youth.

Amo 3:13 Hear ye, and testify in the house of Jacob, saith the Lord GOD, the God of hosts,
Amo 3:14 That in the day that I shall visit the transgressions of Israel upon him I will also visit the altars of Bethel: and the horns of the altar shall be cut off, and fall to the ground.
3:15 And I will smite the winter house with the summer house; and the houses of ivory shall perish, and the great houses shall have an end, saith the LORD.
Amos 2:4-8,10-12,16
Judgment on Judah
Amo 2:4 Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Judah, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they have despised the law of the LORD, and have not kept his commandments, and their lies caused them to err, after the which their fathers have walked:
Amo 2:5 But I will send a fire upon Judah, and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem.
Judgment on Israel
Amo 2:6 Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Israel, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they sold the righteous for silver, and the poor for a pair of shoes;
Amo 2:7 That pant after the dust of the earth on the head of the poor, and turn aside the way of the meek: and a man and his father will go in unto the same maid, to profane my holy name:
Amo 2:8 And they lay themselves down upon clothes laid to pledge by every altar, and they drink the wine of the condemned in the house of their god.
THE MINISTRY AS NAZARITES
Were DRINKING WINE and UNABLE TO PROPHESY
Amo 2:11 And I raised up of your sons for prophets, and of your young men for Nazarites. Is it not even thus, O ye children of Israel? saith the LORD.
Amo 2:12 But ye gave the Nazarites wine to drink; and commanded the prophets, saying, Prophesy not.
Amo 2:13 Behold, I am pressed under you, as a cart is pressed that is full of sheaves.
Amo 2:14 Therefore the flight shall perish from the swift, and the strong shall not strengthen his force, neither shall the mighty deliver himself:
Amo 2:15 Neither shall he stand that handleth the bow; and he that is swift of foot shall not deliver himself: neither shall he that rideth the horse deliver himself.
Amo 2:16 And he that is courageous among the mighty shall flee away naked in that day, saith the LORD.
Israel's Guilt and Punishment
Amo 3:1 Hear this word that the LORD hath spoken against you, O children of Israel, against the whole family which I brought up from the land of Egypt, saying,
Amo 3:2 You only have I known of all the families of the earth: therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities.
Amo 3:3 Can two walk together, except they be agreed?
Amo 3:4 Will a lion roar in the forest, when he hath no prey? will a young lion cry out of his den, if he have taken nothing?
Amo 3:5 Can a bird fall in a snare upon the earth, where no gin is for him? shall one take up a snare from the earth, and have taken nothing at all?
Amo 3:6 Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD hath not done it?
Amo 3:7 Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.
Amo 3:8 The lion hath roared, who will not fear? the Lord GOD hath spoken, who can but prophesy?
Amo 3:9 Publish in the palaces at Ashdod, and in the palaces in the land of Egypt, and say, Assemble yourselves upon the mountains of Samaria, and behold the great tumults in the midst thereof, and the oppressed in the midst thereof.
Amo 3:10 For they know not to do right, saith the LORD, who store up violence and robbery in their palaces.
Amo 3:11 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; An adversary there shall be even round about the land; and he shall bring down thy strength from thee, and thy palaces shall be spoiled.

1Ki 11:9 And the LORD was angry with Solomon, because his heart was turned from the LORD God of Israel, which had appeared unto him twice,
1Ki 11:10 And had commanded him concerning this thing, that he should not go after other gods: but he kept not that which the LORD commanded.
1Ki 11:11 Wherefore the LORD said unto Solomon, Forasmuch as this is done of thee, and thou hast not kept my covenant and my statutes, which I have commanded thee, I will surely rend the kingdom from thee, and will give it to thy servant.
1Ki 11:12 Notwithstanding in thy days I will not do it for David thy father's sake: but I will rend it out of the hand of thy son.
1Ki 11:13 Howbeit I will not rend away all the kingdom; but will give one tribe to thy son for David my servant's sake, and for Jerusalem's sake which I have chosen.
1Ki 11:14 And the LORD stirred up an adversary unto Solomon, Hadad the Edomite: he was of the king's seed in Edom.

Eze 28:11 Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
Eze 28:12 Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the king of Tyrus, and say unto him, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Thou sealest up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty.
Eze 28:13 Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created.
Eze 28:14 Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire.
Eze 28:15 Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee.
Eze 28:16 By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.
Eze 28:17 Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee.
Eze 28:18 Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffick; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee.
Eze 28:19 All they that know thee among the people shall be astonished at thee: thou shalt be a terror, and never shalt thou be any more.

Amo 9:14 And I will bring again the captivity of my people of Israel, and they shall build the waste cities, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and drink the wine thereof; they shall also make gardens, and eat the fruit of them.
Amo 9:15 And I will plant them upon their land, and they shall no more be pulled up out of their land which I have given them, saith the LORD thy God.
Joe 1:12 The vine is dried up, and the fig tree languisheth; the pomegranate tree, the palm tree also, and the apple tree, even all the trees of the field, are withered: because joy is withered away from the sons of men.
A Call to Repentance
Joe 1:13 Gird yourselves, and lament, ye priests: howl, ye ministers of the altar: come, lie all night in sackcloth, ye ministers of my God: for the meat offering and the drink offering is withholden from the house of your God.
Joe 1:14 Sanctify ye a fast, call a solemn assembly, gather the elders and all the inhabitants of the land into the house of the LORD your God, and cry unto the LORD,
Joe 1:15 Alas for the day! for the day of the LORD is at hand, and as a destruction from the Almighty shall it come.
Joe 1:16 Is not the meat cut off before our eyes, yea, joy and gladness from the house of our God?
Joe 1:17 The seed is rotten under their clods, the garners are laid desolate, the barns are broken down; for the corn is withered.
Joe 1:18 How do the beasts groan! the herds of cattle are perplexed, because they have no pasture; yea, the flocks of sheep are made desolate.
Joe 1:19 O LORD, to thee will I cry: for the fire hath devoured the pastures of the wilderness, and the flame hath burned all the trees of the field.
Joe 1:20 The beasts of the field cry also unto thee: for the rivers of waters are dried up, and the fire hath devoured the pastures of the wilderness.
· Hos_2:18 And in that day will I make a covenant for them with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of heaven, and with the creeping things of the ground: and I will break the bow and the sword and the battle out of the earth, and will make them to lie down safely.
LORD LEADS HIS PEOPLE AS BEASTS—
Psa_36:6 Thy righteousness is like the great mountains; thy judgments are a great deep: O LORD, thou preservest man and beast.
LORD LEADS HIS PEOPLE AS BEASTS—
Isa_63:14 As a beast goeth down into the valley, the Spirit of the LORD caused him to rest: so didst thou lead thy people, to make thyself a glorious name.
Isa_43:20 The beast of the field shall honour me, the dragons and the owls: because I give waters in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, my chosen.
So the BEAST POWER in Rev. 17 is LORD’S OWN PEOPLE FIGHTING THE LORD as LAMB, Rev. 17;14
· They REFUSE TO ACCEPT THE OFFER of CRUCIFIED CHRIST TO BE BAPTISED UNTO HIM to be FORGIVEN OF THEIR SINS
· They ARE NOT REPENTING!!
Rev 17:13 These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.
Rev 17:14 These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.
Rev 17:15 And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.
JACOB would be GIVEN PEOPLE as MULTITUDE OF SEA SAND
Ge 32; 12
Gen 32:9 And Jacob said, O God of my father Abraham, and God of my father Isaac, the LORD which saidst unto me, Return unto thy country, and to thy kindred, and I will deal well with thee:
Gen 32:10 I am not worthy of the least of all the mercies, and of all the truth, which thou hast shewed unto thy servant; for with my staff I passed over this Jordan; and now I am become two bands.
Gen 32:11 Deliver me, I pray thee, from the hand of my brother, from the hand of Esau: for I fear him, lest he will come and smite me, and the mother with the children.
LORD’S PEOPLE are COUNSELED as A MULTITUDE
As SEA OF SAND , Ge 22;17, Ge 32; 12, 1 Kin 4;20, Jer. 33;22
1 Kin 4;29, they are as GOG AND MAGOG who are AS SEA
OF SAND, Rev. 20;8
Blessing to ABRAHAM --Gen_22:17 That in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore; and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies;
Blessing to Jacob —Gen 32:12 And thou saidst, I will surely do thee good, and make thy seed as the sand of the sea, which cannot be numbered for multitude.
1Ki_4:20 Judah and Israel were many, as the sand which is by the sea in multitude, eating and drinking, and making merry.
Blessing to DAVID and LEVITES—LORD_33:22 As the host of heaven cannot be numbered, neither the sand of the sea measured: so will I multiply the seed of David my servant, and the Levites that minister unto me.
Blessing to SOLOMON--- 1Ki_4:29 And God gave Solomon wisdom and understanding exceeding much, and largeness of heart, even as the sand that is on the sea shore.
· TODAY WE ARE BENEFITTED FROM WISDOM given to SOLOMON!
· They are the MEN AS CANNOT BE NUMBERED who fights the LORD ---AS GOG and MAGOG –
Rev 20:8 And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.
Gog prophecies fulfill in land of ISRAEL (His church)—Eze 38:16 And thou shalt come up against my people of Israel, as a cloud to cover the land; it shall be in the latter days, and I will bring thee against my land, that the heathen may know me, when I shall be sanctified in thee,O Gog, before their eyes.
GOG prophecies are for SPIRITUAL DISPERSED NATIONS, in four corners, Rev. 20: 8—of Judah, Isa. 11: 9-12 –they are as spiritual nations of captivity, Lam. 1: 3.
They fight LAMB –refusing to REPENT and BE FREED from SIN so that their NAMES could be entered in THE BOOK OF LIFE OF LAMB—
Rev 20:15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
Rev 21:27 And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the LAMB’s book of life.
The Defeat of Satan
Rev 20:7 And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,
Rev 20:8 And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.
Rev 20:9 And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them.
Rev 20:10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
Judgment Before the Great White Throne
Rev 20:11 And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.
Rev 20:12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.
Rev 20:13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.
Rev 20:14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
Rev 20:15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
Rev 21:27 And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb’s book of life.
PCG WOULD FIGHT THE LORD as a BEAST POWER
UNTIL WORDS OF LORD FULFILL in GREAT CITY, JERUSALEM
Rev 17:16 And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire.
Rev 17:17 For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled.
Rev 17:18 And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.
Quoted from No. 1150 -PART 3—
LORD says of ABOMINATIONS as of harlotry is “IN THEE” meaning those abominations, in JERUSALEM, Eze. 16; 2, is found in HIS CHURCH amidst ISRAEL , PCG , for it is Philadelphia Church of God leader was given the COVENANT rights, Eze. 16;8-14. But they had proved of their harlotry, Eze. 16; 15-59
Read in No. 1273—Eze. 16;8—Covenant made with PCG----Referring to Eze.16:15, Gerald Flurry wrote—The word “fornication” should be translated adultery! This is a higher level of sin.
· Eze. 16;15 is words to PCG how she became harlot—
Eze.16;15—But you trusted in your own beauty, played the harlot Because of your fame and poured out your harlotry on everyone passing by who would have it.
Comments--- so PCG had committed FORNICATION ---a higher level of sin, just as Gerald Flurry wrote (read in No. 1273) ---ADULTERY before MARRIAGE OF LAMB, Rev. 19’7, 8, PCG to be married in EVERLASTING COVENANT, Eze. 16;60-63, Isa 59;21
Isa 59: 21-This is My covenant, saith the LORD; My spirit upon thee, My words which I have put in thy mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth, nor out of mouth of thy seed, nor out of mouth of thy seed’s seed, saith the LORD, from henceforth and forever.
PCG is spoken in Eze. 16
Because they made the Covenant with God, Eze.16; 8,
But became a harlot, vs. 15
Eze 16:34-And the contrary is in thee from other women in thy whoredoms, whereas none followeth thee to commit whoredoms: and in that thou givest a reward, and no reward is given unto thee, therefore thou art contrary.
Eze 22:10 In thee have they discovered their fathers’ nakedness: inthee have they humbled her that was set apart for pollution.
Eze 22:11 And one hath committed abomination with his neighbour’s wife; and another hath lewdly defiled his daughter in law; and another in thee hath humbled his sister, his father’s daughter.
· These SINS are all against WORDS written in Lev. 15—17-19.
· In other words, Levi are taught of ABOMINATIONS of family, which is DISGRACEFUL!!
· LORD CALLS IT ABOMINATIONS that are AS HARLOTRY, or FORNICATION before LAMB’S MARRIAGE!
· LORD REQUIRES LAND OF ISRAEL as A VIRGIN, Isa 62;4-5
Zec. 14; 9--And the LORD shall be king over all the earth: in that day shall there be one LORD, and his name one.
Eze 22:6 Behold, the princes of Israel, everyone were in thee to their power to shed blood.
· Princes of ISRAEL are those ministers profaned in church, Isa 43; 48, in profaned Sanctuary amidst PCG, Eze. 24; 21.
Eze 22:7 In thee have they set light by father and mother: in the midst of thee have they dealt by oppression with the stranger: in thee have they vexed the fatherless and the widow.
Eze 22:9 In thee are men that carry tales to shed blood: and in thee they eat upon the mountains: in the midst of thee they commit lewdness.
· Jude 4 For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the GRACE of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.
· They were COUNSELED –ORDAINED to become UNGODLY! ---then NO BODY could CHANGE THAT---He makes counsels, and teaches the ABOMINATIONS in those counsels through HIS WORDS!
Eze 22:12 In thee have they taken gifts to shed blood; thou hast taken usury and increase, and thou hast greedily gained of thy neighbours by extortion, and hast forgotten me, saith the Lord GOD.
· Coveting money!
Eze 25:4 Behold, therefore I will deliver thee to the men of the east for a possession, and they shall set their palaces in thee, and make their dwellings in thee: they shall eat thy fruit, and they shall drink thy milk.
· ABOVE WORDS In Eze. 22 are ALL RELATED TO CHURCH!!
