(Cont. from Page 25/12/82). MOUNT ZION. "But you have approached a Mount Zion and a city of the Living God, heavenly Jerusalem, and myriads of angels, in general assembly, and the congregation of the first-born who have been enrolled in the heavens, and God the Judge of all, and the spiritual lives of righteous ones who have been made perfect, and Jesus the mediator of a new covenant, and the blood of sprinkling, which speaks in a better way than Abel's blood." (Heb 12:22-24). WARRING
AGAINST SPIRITUAL "MOUNT ZION". MAKING THINGS "TIGHT" FOR THOSE OF It is written: "These are the things he says who is holy, who is true, who has the key of David, who opens so that no one will shut, and shuts so that no one opens". (Rev 3:7). This "key" of knowledge was given to the Firstborn Son of God (of David's lineage), namely The Christ Jesus. As "mediator of a new covenant" he was given spiritual authority to commence the ingathering of 144,000 anointed Kingdom heirs as a spiritual House for God. (1 Peter 2:4,5. Rev 5:9,10. 7:4). To "open" and to "shut" indicates a defined gathering period.
Apostates * "leaving the holy covenant"
waged war against spiritual "Mount Zion".
(Dan 11:30-32). After coming to know the Will of God, unfaithful
covenant-leavers of the sect falsely calling themselves Jehovah's Witnesses
published many apostate teachings in their
books
and
Watchtowers
("siege towers"), waging war against faithful covenant members by
twisting #
the fundamental meanings of the Word of God to make things "tight"
for faithful anointed sons of God. (Isaiah 29:7,8). But these apostates
will be exterminated, just as it is written: "The ruthless shall be no
more, the arrogant shall cease to be; those who are quick to see mischief, those
who charge others with a sin or lay traps for him who brings the wrongdoer into
court or by falsehood deny justice to the righteous
