WHO WILL BE THE "LEFTOVER (ONES)"?
(REV 2:24 GREEK INTERLINEAR TRANSLATION).
(9) According
to our Lord Jesus, those left remaining will have conquered by being obedient to
Jesus' advanced warnings to the "seven congregations" for the
"Lord's day". (Rev 1:10,11). These individuals
do not
come to know the "deep things of satan" (i.e.) how to deject the
hearts of righteous ones with falsehood. (Ezek 13:17 23) (Rev 2:24).
As for those called to be holy ones who fail to correct
these offences, they are advocating eating "things sacrificed to
(dungy) idols" (to them). (Rev 2:20). Through their
apostate teachings they inspire JW members to admire them and to seek admiration
in their turn by reaching out for the office of
'elder' within congregations
promoting the teachings of "that woman Jezebel". These are not
conquerors with a hearing ear to what the Spirit is saying to the congregations.
Jehovah made provision through His Christ to be with those who have a portion of
His Holy Spirit, and they have witness borne to them that they are sons of God
because they are led by His Spirit. (Rom 8:14-19).
Jehovah gave all authority in heaven and on earth to our Lord Jesus Christ. That
is why Christ was able to say to his disciples: "And look! I am with you
all the days until the conclusion of the system of things." (Matt 28:18 20). Unsealed 'elders'
making apostate statements in contradiction of
the Will of God such as:
'Most of the anointed that remain are not able to
speak or teach well enough. They are elderly, and there are not enough of them',
are not spiritual "Jews", for they are lying against
the Word of God. (Rev 3:9). Please read
1 Corinthians 12:4-18.
Those who seemingly have spiritual qualifications and claim to be anointed ones
but receive admiration and glory at the expense of the "lean sheep"
of the "least" of Jesus' faithful anointed brothers, are
self-centred "plump sheep". (Ezek
34:20,21. Matt 25:41-46). In their lack toward their brothers they are
missing the very purpose of God.
(2 Cor 6:1).

(9a) |
How are those who know the "deep things of satan" made manifest?

|
(9b) |
How do we know there is a sufficient number of
faithful anointed sons
of God remaining on earth to teach
the "great crowd" of "other sheep"? |
