WHY THE SPIRITUALLY UNCLEAN WILL NEVER
ENTER SPIRITUAL "MOUNT ZION" AGAIN.

"Awake, awake, put on your strength, O Zion, put on your loveliest garments, holy city of Jerusalem; for never shall the uncircumcised and the unclean enter you again." (Isaiah 52:1 NEB).

THE FULFILMENT OF ISAIAH 52:1.
The fulfilment of this prophecy through the prophet Isaiah relates to anointed servants of God who are members of spiritual "Mount Zion" and is intended for the "time of the end". (Heb 12:22-24). These are the ones who have produced works befitting repentance and made a baptismal vow to serve God through The Christ Jesus. (Matt 3:8) (Rom 6:4 7). They have carried out His Will according to Spirit knowledge of His Holy Word, and have had their request for a good conscience accepted by God, enabling them to serve Him. (1 Peter 3:21). Their "circumcision" is of the heart by Holy Spirit removing superfluous badness and spiritual uncleanness from their spirits. (Rom 2:29) (James 1:21).

In fulfilment of the "appointed times"* of Daniel 12:5-13, although spiritually unclean ones did enter "Zion", this was brought to an end in 1982. (Dan 12:7-9. Eph 1:8-10). The fulfilment of Isaiah 52:1 not only confirms that the opportunity to gain salvation through the "good news" of faith in The Christ has come to a finish, but also that the gathering of Spirit anointed sons of God has been completed ! The 'shifting of responsibilities' from faithful anointed ones to spiritually unclean JW 'elders', and the excommunication of these anointed ones from JW congregations, confirmed that the gathering of faithful anointed members of spiritual "Mount Zion" had been completed! (Zech 13:2) (See Page 841 of the "Little Scroll").

No longer can spiritually unclean ones go through the process of spirit sanctification under the "new covenant" by means of faith in Christ. (Heb 8:10-13). The remaining ones of mankind may only now give glory to God out of fear as they witness fear-inspiring calamities from God taking place on earth. (Rev 11:13). This is not giving glory to God out of faith. Giving glory to God out of fear is a lesser form of spirit obedience. (Mal 4:5). Further, it is not possible for such ones to be spiritually cleansed to become one of the 144,000 Spirit anointed members of heavenly "Mount Zion".

The prophesying of The Opened "Little Scroll" again has a very important purpose. (Rev 10:11). It is for the spiritual rebuilding of "long-standing devastated places" (people) by resurrected anointed members of spiritual "Mount Zion". (Isaiah 61:4,6. Rev 7:4). They will be given heavenly Spirit authority from God to spiritually rebuild those under a "veil" of spirit ignorance and in a desolate spirit condition. (2 Cor 3:16-18 NEB). As the descendants of past generations, they are "long-standing devastated places" of "former times", and will be redeemed and restored by means of the "Way of Holiness". (Isaiah 35:8-10). They will receive spiritual insight from God to help them attain a favourable standing before Him.
