Part two

And God's solution today is the same as it was then - He is raising up Apostles and Prophets and sending them forth to fulfill His will and teach His people to do so. He is anointing men and women to "preach the gospel to the poor, to heal the broken hearted, to preach deliverance to the captives and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, to preach the acceptable year of the Lord and the Day of Judgment of our God".
For His apostles and prophets will never seek to replace the apostate leadership of God's people with themselves but will rather point God's people to God Himself - uniting the Lord and His bride, helping to bring her to a place of purity and maturity and becoming less and less a part of their personal walk with God, so that God Himself becomes more and more the focus of their lives.
"Is not this the fast that I have chosen? To loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that you break every yoke?" "Is it not to deal your bread to the hungry and that you bring the poor that are cast out to your house? When you see the naked that you cover him? and that you hide not yourself from your own flesh?"

When you shake free of religion, these scriptures will come to life in your heart and fill your days with purpose - the true call of God on your days - the bands of wickedness, the heavy burdens, the yokes that need breaking - all are upon God's own people, not the world. All refer to His lost sheep who desperately need saving in our day - NOW deal your bread to the hungry....give the bread of life, Jesus himself, His words live in you, to the hungry, to those longing for Him, starving for Him, for true bread, not the pap they're fed in church after church across the land - churches full of people not hungry for the bread of life but instead partaking of the bread of death, full of the Pharisees leaven, week after month after year. Bring the poor that are cast out of those types of churches, to your house. Make your house a sanctuary of love, the rich, pure love of God so many are lacking, therefor they're poor, for they look in vain in "houses built by men" and not by God. These houses (churches) love according to their standards and not God's. All they do is designed to make them look good in the eyes of the people, to convince people they are of God - never realizing Satan goes around doing good too! He has his own standards of good and evil and wishes his people to follow them as long as they do it under/in his spirit and not God's. He will teach the word of God! He will entice men with the "wisdom of this world", convincing them it's God's wisdom, causing them, in the end, to reject the wisdom and truth given to us by God's Spirit - twisting and perverting scripture till all manner of false doctrines abound - taught using God's own words!
Heed now "the voice of them that flee and escape out of the land of Babylon, to declare in Zion the vengeance of the Lord our God, the vengeance of His temple". Flee out of the midst of Babylon, flee from religious Christianity, and deliver every man his own soul - be not cut off in her iniquity, for this is the time of the Lord's vengeance, He will render unto her a recompense".
God is well aware of the bondage His people are in and He is sending forth His apostles and prophets to enter the jails we call churches, and from their midst pray and sing praises to God - so that the prisoners hear them, until the jails are shaken and the foundations of the prisons are broken - the false doctrines, the lies, until "all the doors are opened and everyone's bands are loosed" hallelujah! And the keepers of the prisons - the pastors awaken out of their sleep, and seeing the people free from their bondage, first desiring to kill themselves, will instead be saved "along with their houses". This glorious picture from Acts 16:23-34 shall come to pass in your sight. True apostles and prophets are being beaten today (vs. 22 & 23) - multitudes rising up against them, casting them into prisons of their own devising, religious churches, charging their pastors to keep them bound, but as Joseph was cast into the pit by his own brethren, and later prison, all so he could be used by God to bring deliverance and salvation to the very ones who cast him into the pit, and to the ones who cast him into prison, so it is today. Despair not O Apostle, forsake not your calling O Prophet - for I will indeed use you to deliver My people - I will indeed use your voice to shake the prisons, I will use your humility to crumble the houses of pride so prevalent in the earth today, saith The Lord.

Epilogue: So we see that with Israel and the Church, representing our flesh and our spirit, the truth revealed is this: In Christ our flesh and our spirit are destined to come together in perfect unity, peace and harmony - for only in Christ can this happen. This is our glorious destiny! Our inheritance! Now, instead of warring against each other, one trying to dominate the other, instead they will serve each other. The flesh was created before the spirit, just as Israel was created before the Church. The flesh is the "tabernacle" for the spirit, just as Israel is the dwelling place for the Church. The spirit must honor the flesh, treat it as holy, with respect and the flesh must serve the spirit, not lord over it. Ah....so much to be yet known and revealed Lord! Line upon line, precept upon precept, here a little, there a little....
