BEFORE THE EXTERMINATION COMMENCES
"FOR ALL THE LAND",
TO
THOSE
"CLAMOURING
IN
THEIR
CUPS"
OF
THEIR
OWN
"WINE",
TO FALSE PROPHETS AND FALSE PRIESTS (ISAIAH 28:7,8 NEB) :
A WARNING.
THIS PHYSICAL EVENT OF THE PAST
IS BECOMING A SPIRITUAL REALITY:
"For
Jehovah will rise up just as at Mount Perazim, He will be agitated just as in
the low plain near Gibeon, that He may do His deed
His deed is strange
and that He may work His work His
work is unusual. And now do not show yourselves scoffers,
in order that your bands may not grow strong, for there is
an extermination, even something decided upon, that I have
heard of from the Sovereign Lord, Jehovah of armies,
for all the land."
(Isaiah 28:21,22).
"WHOM WILL ONE INSTRUCT IN KNOWLEDGE"?
(28:9).
Over recent
years, faithful anointed sons of God on earth became the "trampling place"
of God and as a "reason for quaking" in order to make others
understand. (28:18,19). But the "bands" (congregations) of
the sect falsely calling themselves Jehovah's Witnesses have grown strong, and
scoff at such tidings in the spiritual "land" of God. They refuse
to hear "what has been heard" through anointed sons from God, even
though it has been sent to them "here a little, there a little"
repeatedly as though from a "stammering" tongue. (28:10,11).
Refusing to listen, they have
instead prematurely swallowed down the "early fig" before its season,
presumptuously and erroneously teaching the fulfilment of prophecies of the Word
of God before knowledge and fulfilment of them were due to be revealed. (28:4).
Consequently, they have become
intoxicated with their own apostate teachings and lost their way. Prophecies
that are being fulfilled, and the associated spiritual teaching of
them, have been cut off from them because of their arrogant overestimation of
themselves. (28:14). Periodically by Holy Spirit "measuring lines"
for the correction of these "early fig" teachings were put up by
faithful anointed sons of God to keep His spiritual instructions and their
correct meanings intact, along with the appointed times of His prophecies within
the confines of His spiritual building. (See Page 826).
But these "measuring lines" shall cause apostates
"not willing to hear" to "stumble backwards" so that they
are "broken and ensnared and caught." (28:13). Those
refusing to be saved from apostate error by these "measuring lines"
will suffer the prophesied extermination that is about to take place throughout
'Ephraimite' JW congregations in "all the land" worldwide.
WITH "STAMMERING" LIPS
AND A "DIFFERENT" TONGUE.
Because
they
were
sent
"command
upon
command,
measuring
line
upon
measuring line"
and were repeatedly warned as though by a "stammering" tongue,
apostate sinners occupying Zion will come to be in dread at the arrival of the
Spirit Judgement of God. (28:11-13. 33:10-14). It will
not only prove that they "refused to listen" or "let the exhausted have (spiritual) rest" just before Almighty God
Jehovah begins His Sovereign Rule over all mankind, but that their treaty with
Death to escape His Judgement is being swept away. (28:11 19 NEB) (2 Esdras 9:9-12 NEB).
The "Word of the Lord"
has become "harsh cries and raucous shouts" to warn of the
imminence of the Judgement of God. (28:13
NEB).
How shameful to have delayed until the Word of God has become a
"stammering" tongue of "harsh cries and raucous shouts",
and then to witness unfaithful 'Ephraimite' covenant-leavers
("drunkards of Ephraim")
and the glory of their "eminent crowns" of unsealed JW
'elders' being
"trampled down" by the Spirit of the Lord's Judgement! (28:1-3).
Idols of the Philistines were
abandoned by them and literally burned by people of God. The spiritual
fulfilment will be the abandonment and Spirit "fire" of
God upon apostate "dungy idols" !
