DOES THE FATHER COME TO EARTH, BEFORE CHRIST.

WHO COMES TO EARTH WITH THE FATHER.

DO THE FIRSTFRUITS BELONG TO CHRIST AND THE FATHER

DO THE SAINTS BELONG TO CHRIST ALONE

The above questions are important to us regarding this wonderful time for the people of God.  Do you know the answers to these questions?  Lets look at what the bible says on these subjects.

As we are well aware from scripture, the dead in Christ will be resurrected to spirit, and the living saints will be changed to spirit.  What is the order of the first resurrection?

1 COR 15 V 23

But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming. 

The above scripture clearly shows that Christ is the first to be resurrected, then the firstfruits. Read that scripture again, Christ, then the firstfruits, then they that are Christs at his coming.  There are three stages.  Three separate events.
Some might say, no that is not what the scripture says, it says that Christ is the firstfruit, {He is resurrected first} then they that are Christs at his coming. 
That  is incorrect understanding of this scripture { Christ is the first of the firstfruits we are not suggesting He is not the first of the firstfruits} as we will confirm in this article, God the Father comes to earth with the saints.   The Father comes to earth before Christ, the Father comes with His saints {the firstfruits}, so how would these firstfruits fit into the above reasoning.  The firstfruits that come to earth with the Father are left out in this reasoning. 

The correct explanation is that the saints who return with the Father are the firstfruits. 

The correct understanding of the verse is: Christ, then the firstfruits, then they that are Christs at His coming. 

Who are the firstfruits, notice the following verses.

REV 14 V 4

These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb. 

The firstfruits belong to the Father and to Christ, notice the last line of the above verse. 
Also notice the following

REV 14 V 1

And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father's name written in their foreheads. 

Notice that there is only 144,000 firstfruits, that comprises the resurrected dead saints and the resurrected live saints.  That is people like Abraham, Moses and David etc as well as  the saints who are alive at the return of the Father, these combined saints will number 144,000,00.  Notice that they have the Fathers name on their foreheads.  They belong to the Father and Christ. The dead firstfruits will come to earth with the Father, those that are alive at this time will have the seal of God  {the Fathers name }on their foreheads, and will be protected until they are changed to spirit as firstfruits. 

REV 1 V 6

And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. 

Read that scripture again,kings and priests unto God {Christ} and His Father

2 JOHN V 9

Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. 

These scriptures make it plain that the firstfruits belong to the Father and Christ.

Notice some of the requirements of being a firstfruit or an elect {chosen}of the Father and Christ.
We must have foreknowledge of God the Father. This means that when new knowledge of the Father is given, we must prove it to ourselves and accept it.  We must not just dismiss it out of hand because it is not what we thought.  We have not had all knowledge.  We must continue to grow in grace and knowledge.  We must prove all things and then accept them if we want to be a firstfruit. 

1 PETER 1 V 2

Elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through sanctification of the Spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace unto you, and peace, be multiplied.

Note this well, the firstfruits belong to the Father and to Christ.  The Father brings the resurrected dead saints with Him at His return.

ZECH 14 V 5

And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah: and the LORD my God shall come, and all the saints with thee. 

The dead firstfruits come with the Father, the live firstfruits will be changed later. Lets notice what actually happens during this time.

Firstly we see the firstfruits resurrected in heaven, they have been killed for their beliefs and are told to waite until the number of martyrs is complete. Notice they are given white robes, there is no doubt that these saints are firstfruits and are  resurrected.

Rev 6:9  And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held: 
Rev 6:10  And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth? 
Rev 6:11  And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled. 

When the total number of firstfruits is complete, there will be no more martys of the firstfruits.  The saints will continue to be martyred until the return of Christ, but the firstfruits will not.

Now lets look what happens next, the firstfruits are resurrected in heaven, the total number of martyrs for the firstfruits is complete, now The Father puts a seal on the live firstfruits, they will not be killed, they are marked out for protection, to continue their jobs here on earth as humans until the Father changes them to spirit. The resurrected firstfruits are sealed at this time also.

Rev 7:2  And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea, 
Rev 7:3  Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads. 
Rev 7:4  And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel. 

Notice how the live firstfruits are marked out for protection.

Rev 9:4  And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads. 

The live firstfruits are changed to spirit when Christ returns, because the next we see of them in scripture, is when they stand on the Mount  Sion with Christ.
 

1 THES 4 V 14

For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. 

DAN 7 V 21-22

I beheld, and the same horn made war with the saints, and prevailed against them; 
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 saints who are dead will hear Christ’s voice and be raised from the dead.

JOHN 5 V 25

Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live. 

Why do the dead hear the voice of the Son of God, because Christ will raise them from the dead, they will hear His voice, and He will raise them from the dead.  Notice the following scripture.

Joh 6:54  Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day. 

Once resurrected, they will rule on earth with the Father as per the above scriptures.  The live firstfruits will be changed later.

1 THES 4 V 15-16

For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. 
For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: 

Here we see the dead firstfruits resurrected first and they hear the voice of Christ and  are resurrected.The  firstfruits then come to earth with the Father, Then after this the live firstfruits  will then be changed when Christ returns

Notice the live firstfruits are changed to spirit.

1 THES 4 V 17

Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. 

Notice how the Father calls for His saints to be gathered

Psa 50:4  He shall call to the heavens from above, and to the earth, that he may judge his people. 
Psa 50:5  Gather my saints together unto me; those that have made a covenant with me by sacrifice. 

The following scripture shows that there are people at the end who know their God .

Dan 11:32  And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits. 
Dan 11:33  And they that understand among the people shall instruct many: yet they shall fall by the sword, and by flame, by captivity, and by spoil, many days. 
Dan 11:34  Now when they shall fall, they shall be holpen with a little help: but many shall cleave to them with flatteries. 

Notice that some fall…..not all.

Dan 11:35  And some of them of understanding shall fall, to try them, and to purge, and to make them white, even to the time of the end: because it is yet for a time appointed. 

The following scripture gives the time setting of the return of the Father, and the voice of the archangel, {Michael} is one of the signs of the return of the Father as per 1 Thes 4 v 15-16 

Dan 12:1  And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book. 

The next scripture shows that there is a number who must be martyred and when that is reached the Father returns with the firstfruits.

Rev 6:11  And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled. 

Before we cover the return to earth of Christ, let us look at the scriptures, which refer to the return to earth of the Father. Firstly notice this scripture showing that the Father and Christ are on earth together.

ACTS 4 V 26

The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord, and against his Christ. 
 

THE RETURN OF THE FATHER WITH HIS SAINTS
 

PSALM 18 V 6-15

In my distress I called upon the LORD, and cried unto my God: he heard my voice out of his temple, and my cry came before him, even into his ears. 
Then the earth shook and trembled; the foundations also of the hills moved and were shaken, because he was wroth. 
There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, and fire out of his mouth devoured: coals were kindled by it. 
He bowed the heavens also, and came down: and darkness was under his feet. 
And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly: yea, he did fly upon the wings of the wind. 
He made darkness his secret place; his pavilion round about him were dark waters and thick clouds of the skies. 
At the brightness that was before him his thick clouds passed, hail stones and coals of fire. 
The LORD also thundered in the heavens, and the Highest gave his voice; hail stones and coals of fire. 
Yea, he sent out his arrows, and scattered them; and he shot out lightnings, and discomfited them. 
Then the channels of waters were seen, and the foundations of the world were discovered at thy rebuke, O LORD, at the blast of the breath of thy nostrils. 

PSALM 97 V 1-5

The LORD reigneth; let the earth rejoice; let the multitude of isles be glad thereof. 
Clouds and darkness are round about him: righteousness and judgment are the habitation of his throne. 
A fire goeth before him, and burneth up his enemies round about. 
His lightnings enlightened the world: the earth saw, and trembled. 
The hills melted like wax at the presence of the LORD, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth. 

DAN 7 V 21-22

I beheld, and the same horn made war with the saints, and prevailed against them; 
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. 

ZECH 14 V 3-7

Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle. 
And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south. 
And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah: and the LORD my God shall come, and all the saints with thee. 
And it shall come to pass in that day, that the light shall not be clear, nor dark: 
But it shall be one day which shall be known to the LORD, not day, nor night: but it shall come to pass, that at evening time it shall be light. 

1 THES 4 V 14

For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. 

JUDE 1 V 14

And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints, 

ISA 66 V 15

For, behold, the LORD will come with fire, and with his chariots like a whirlwind, to render his anger with fury, and his rebuke with flames of fire. 

ISA 40 V 10

Behold, the Lord GOD will come with strong hand, and his arm shall rule for him: behold, his reward is with him, and his work before him

Notice when the Father returns that He refers to Christ as His arm, in the above verse.

DEUT 33 V 2-3

And he said, The LORD came from Sinai, and rose up from Seir unto them; he shined forth from mount Paran, and he came with ten thousands of saints: from his right hand went a fiery law for them. 
Yea, he loved the people; all his saints are in thy hand: and they sat down at thy feet; every one shall receive of thy words. 

PSA 50 V 3- 5

Our God shall come, and shall not keep silence: a fire shall devour before him, and it shall be very tempestuous round about him. 
He shall call to the heavens from above, and to the earth, that he may judge his people. 
Gather my saints together unto me; those that have made a covenant with me by sacrifice. 

Notice the following scripture, it is interesting that the Father brings a reward with Him and Christ brings a reward with Him.
Lets look at the reward of the Father.

REV 11 V 18 

And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth. 

When the Father returns to earth, with the firstfruits, they have some very important work to do, let’s look at the following scriptures, which describe their duties upon their return to earth and their change to spirit.

The firstfruits will help the Father in the Day of the Lord, in judgment and punishment.

ISA 13 V 3

I have commanded my sanctified ones, I have also called my mighty ones for mine anger, even them that rejoice in my highness. 

ISA 13 V 5

They come from a far country, from the end of heaven, even the LORD, and the weapons of his indignation, to destroy the whole land. 

OBAD 1 V 21

And saviours shall come up on mount Zion to judge the mount of Esau; and the kingdom shall be the LORD'S. 

Following the return to earth of the Father and His firstfruits, we see the return to earth of Christ.

THE RETURN TO EARTH OF CHRIST AND THE ANGELS 

The following scripture shows two things firstly that Christ returns with the angels, and secondly that He rewards every man according to his works, the Father also has a reward when He comes.

MATT 16 V 27 

For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works. 

MATT 24 V 27 

For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 

MATT 25 V 31

When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory: 

2 THES 1 V 7

And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels, 

2 THES 2 V 8

And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: 

REV 1 V 7

Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen. 

REV 19 V 11-16

And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war. 
His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself. 
And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God. 
And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. 
And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. 
And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS. 

The above scriptures show clearly the difference between the return of the Father and the return of Christ.
With this new knowledge of the return of The Father and Christ, firmly in our minds, lets press on for greater understanding of the first resurrection……….. 
Lets understand that the Firstfruits, return to earth with the Father, then they begin the many duties in front of them, assisting the Father with the nation of  Israel and other duties.

There will be a period of time between the resurrection of the firstfruits and the resurrection of Christs saints.

MATT 24 V 30

And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. 

Then we see the remainder of  1 Cor 15 v 23

.......afterwards they that are Christ’s at his coming

This is the resurrection of the saints, which have not qualified as high as firstfruits, they do not belong to the Father and Christ, they are Christs only.  However they are in the first resurrection and have a great reward, but they are not firstfruits. 

MATT 24 V 31

And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. 

Mark has more detail of this account, remember some of these people have been dead and some are alive, so the same will apply as for the firstfruits.  The dead will rise first, then the live saints will rise.

MARK 13 V  27

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. 

The following shows the resurrection of the live saints.

1 COR 15 V 51-55 

Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, 
In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. 
For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. 
So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. 
O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? 

Notice that when Christ returns His saints are changed, the dead will be resurrected first, and changed to spirit, and then the ones who are alive and remain will be changed to spirit.

Col 3:4  When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.

Then we see Christ with the Firstfruits, on Mt. Zion.

REV 14 V 1

And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father's name written in their foreheads. 

Who are the 144,000? they are firstfruits to the Father and Christ.

REV 14 V 4

These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb. 

Now a sum up of the above.

REV 20 V 4

And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years. 

And the two groups are shown in the following verse

REV 20 V 6

Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years. 

Notice that some will be priests of God the Father and some will be priests of Christ. Together they will reign with Christ for a thousand years.

Our spiritual calling is an exact parallel with the exodus from Egypt by the Israelites.

Lets compare.

God the Father calls us.  We are to come out of this world as the Israelites had to leave Egypt.

JOHN 6 V 44

No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day. 

The Father brought the Israelites out of Egypt

EX 20 V 2-3 

I am the LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. 
Thou shalt have no other gods before me. 

Before we can truly obey God we need to receive the Holy Spirit.  God gives us the earnest of the spirit first.  This is all we need to obey overcome and grow towards the fullness of the stature of Christ.  The earnest of the spirit is usually given at the laying on of hands at baptism.

2 COR 5 V 5 

Now he that hath wrought us for the selfsame thing is God, who also hath given unto us the earnest of the Spirit. 

The parallel to this is the Israelites crossing the Red Sea

1 COR 10 V 1-2

Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea; 
And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea; 

Once we are called, and receive the Earnest of the Spirit, we begin our journey toward the promised land {eternal life}

As mentioned in John 6 v 44 The Father calls us, but then Christ looks after us for a good part of our journey to the promised land {eternal life}  This is because He  intercedes for us.

HEB 2 V 17

Wherefore in all things it behoved 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. 

In the case of the Israelites, the Father started out amongst them, but due to their constant rebellion and stiffnecked attitude, the Father withdrew from their midst, and put Christ amongst them. 

EX 33 V 2-3

And I will send an angel before thee; and I will drive out the Canaanite, the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite: 
Unto a land flowing with milk and honey: for I will not go up in the midst of thee; for thou art a stiffnecked people: lest I consume thee in the way. 

Our journey to the Promised land {eternal life} is usually a long and hard one.  Filled with trials and testing, this is to see if we will obey God.

1 PETER 4 V 12

Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you: 

God led the Israelites through the wilderness to see if they would obey, He fed them manna, which was a type of the soft milk of the word.

DEUT 8 V 2

And thou shalt remember all the way which the LORD thy God led thee these forty years in the wilderness, to humble thee, and to prove thee, to know what was in thine heart, whether thou wouldest keep his commandments, or no. 

Now we come to some end time knowledge of what happens next.  After the 40 years of wondering in the wilderness, the next event for the Israelites is the crossing of the Jordan into the Promised Land.  Before this happens we see that the Israelites did not want the promised land.  Only Joshua and Caleb brought back a favourable report.

We must want the promised land today, there is knowledge regarding eternal life, we must seek it, and desire it and want to believe God and what He tells us.

The Israelites who did not want the promised land; all died.  The only two who wanted the promised land were Joshua and Caleb.  They were the only two who went into the promised land out of the original group of 2,000,000 plus who left Egypt.

We must want to leave the wilderness behind and go forward into the promised land.

Once we show God that we want the Promised land {eternal life} by accepting the knowledge of Him and the other requirements of eternal life, we then receive the Holy Spirit of power.

1 TIM 2 V 4

Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. 

The spirit of power

ROM 15 V 19 

Through mighty signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God; so that from Jerusalem, and round about unto Illyricum, I have fully preached the gospel of Christ. 

Once we cross over the Jordan into the promised land, which is a type of eternal life, the Father then comes back into our midst.  This is because if you accept eternal life, you will then be a firstfruit and you will belong to the Father and to Christ.

REV 14 V 4

These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb. 

Now in the case of the Israelites, once they crossed over the Jordan, and entered the promised land, the Father came back amongst them.

JOSH 3 V 10 

And Joshua said, Hereby ye shall know that the living God is among you, and that he will without fail drive out from before you the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Hivites, and the Perizzites, and the Girgashites, and the Amorites, and the Jebusites. 

The above scriptures clearly show that there is a parallel between the Israelites Exodus and our spiritual calling.

Now back to our spiritual calling…..

Look at the amazing duties awaiting the firstfruits once they are resurrected, changed to spirit and return to earth with the Father.

The firstfruits will execute judgment. 

JUDE V 14-15

And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints, 
To execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speeches which ungodly sinners have spoken against him. 

Judgment is given to the saints of the most High.  {firstfruits}

DAN 7 V 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 saints will judge the world and also the angels.

1 COR 6 V 2-3 

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? 
Know ye not that we shall judge angels? how much more things that pertain to this life? 

This article has clearly shown a number of new and exciting things, the firstfruits belong to Christ and the Father and the dead firstfruits return to earth with the Father.  The live firstfruits are changed to spirit after that time, when Christ returns.

Christ returns with His angels, His saints are gathered by the angels and the dead saints are changed to spirit.  The live saints are changed to spirit shortly after that time.

The firstfruits are spiritual giants, they belong to the Father and Christ, the saints which belong to Christ are still saints but have a lesser responsibility than the firstfruits.  They rule with Christ. The Father calls for His saints to be gathered to Him, Psa 50 v 4-5.

The firstfruits judge the world, they are used by the Father and Christ in a tremendously valuable position of authority……they are rewarded according to how they have lived their life now……..are we striving to be a firstfruit……..they are few and far between, only 144,000

Let’s be about our Fathers business as we see the day approaching, let us make our calling and election sure.
