Chapter 67 JESUS CHRIST, HIS CHURCH, AND THE END OF THE AGE

Now, as you read this, the Lord of all, Jesus Christ, walks among his followers on earth. He walks among those he has saved and called, knowing them, loving them, and leading those who will be led. He is with Spiritkind, his Church.

“Write this letter to the angel of the church in Ephesus.
This is the message from the one who holds the seven stars in his right hand, the one who walks among the seven gold lampstands: “I [Jesus Christ] know all the things you do. I have seen your hard work and your patient endurance. I know you don’t tolerate evil people. You have examined the claims of those who say they are apostles but are not. You have discovered they are liars. You have patiently suffered for me without quitting.”
REVELATION 2:1-3 NLT

With great joy all of heaven offers fidelity and allegiance to Jesus Christ. Among those who have not fallen, there are none that are not in submission to him. Jesus is again, more so now than he has ever been, the Commander of the Lord's Army.

I [John] heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea. They sang: “Blessing and honor and glory and power belong to the one sitting on the throne and to the Lamb forever and ever.”
REVELATION 5:13 NLT

The angels in his service are in preparation for a time called the Harvest, a period that is both coming and in many respects has already begun. The angels are his workers, receiving their orders from him regarding both Spiritkind and Spirit Dead. The Son ultimately presides over how to handle both the devil and those who persist in belonging to him.

Jesus told them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field. But while everyone was sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat, and went away. When the wheat sprouted and formed heads, then the weeds also appeared. “The owner’s servants came to him and said, ‘Sir, didn’t you sow good seed in your field? Where then did the weeds come from?’
“‘An enemy did this,’ he replied.
“The servants asked him, ‘Do you want us to go and pull them up?’
“‘No,’ he answered, ‘because while you are pulling the weeds, you may uproot the wheat with them. Let both grow together until the harvest. At that time I will tell the harvesters: First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned; then gather the wheat and bring it into my barn.’” ... His disciples came to him and said, “Explain to us the parable of the weeds in the field.”
He answered, “The one who sowed the good seed is the Son of Man. The field is the world, and the good seed stands for the people of the kingdom. The weeds are the people of the evil one, and the enemy who sows them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the harvesters are angels. “As the weeds are pulled up and burned in the fire, so it will be at the end of the age. The Son of Man will send out his angels, and they will weed out of his kingdom everything that causes sin and all who do evil. They will throw them into the blazing furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Whoever has ears, let them hear.
MATTHEW 13:24-29 & 36-42 NIV

This period is by no means easy for Spiritkind; the Church of Jesus Christ finds itself in the flames of persecution at almost every turn. Those watching on from heaven likely hold their breath in horror as waves of flames wash back and forth across the people on the earth. But amidst the carnage and the terror, as they continue to watch, a handful of those among Spiritkind began to shine. Piercing stabs of light from amidst the darkness, among Spiritkind are now those who radiate like the sun. A brilliant luminescence exceeding even that which Lucifer had at the first, radiating from each as Jesus Christ brings them to perfection through the flames.
And now, as the age approaches its closing moments, the manifold wisdom of God the Almighty and All-Glorious is evident to all.

Then there will be a time of anguish greater than any since nations first came into existence. But at that time every one of your people whose name is written in the book will be rescued. Many of those whose bodies lie dead and buried will rise up, some to everlasting life and some to shame and everlasting disgrace. Those who are wise will shine as bright as the sky, and those who lead many to righteousness will shine like the stars forever.”
DANIEL 12:1-3 NLT

“To all who are victorious, who obey me to the very end, To them I will give authority over all the nations. They will rule the nations with an iron rod and smash them like clay pots. They will have the same authority I received from my Father, and I will also give them the morning star!”
REVELATION 2:26-28 NLT
