Marching Towards PENTECOST !

Marching Towards Pentecost…
For the Year of Our LORD, 5.7.2008


…that there might be made known now
to the principalities [rulers, Gk. Kosmocrators) and the
authorities (archons) in the heavenlies,
through the assembly [church],
the manifold wisdom of God,
according to the purpose of the ages,
[the Eternal purpose]
which He made
in CHRIST JESUS our LORD,
Eph. 3:10, 11
Ephesians 3, from Young’s Literal Translation, with Greek words added,
translated by Robert Young in l863,
author of Young’s Analytical Concordance to the Holy Bible.


After the great and victorious Resurrection of CHRIST came the moving of Paradise from the heart of the earth into the Heavenly realm. Then came HIS+ glorious Ascension witnessed by His+ disciples.

This time, HIS+ disciples and followers did what HE+ said and waited in Jerusalem, together, until they should be endued with power from on high… which came 10 days later.
We’re marching towards Pentecost now. This was the great out-pouring of the HOLY SPIRIT that, with the sound like a mighty, rushing wind, overwhelmed the Believers gathered in the Upper Room. It literally set them on fire (Spiritually!) for The LORD… and the One, Holy, Universal or Catholic, Apostolic Church began to wage its earthly battle for souls.


When that happened, there was a big upheaval in the Heavenlies. The Archons and Kosmocrators saw that their day was limited. Lowly man would be ruling over them in a short period of time. Not only were they ousted from The LORD’S presence in Heaven, but they would soon be ousted from their lower areas of authority.

Thus the fight began against the Church in deadly earnest.
Only in the strength of the Blessed Holy Spirit, could the Church hope to overcome all that would be thrown at them and carry the Gospel to the ends of the earth. They relied on their LORD’s precious words, “ I AM with you always, even until the end of the age”.
This continues in these perilous times that we live in today.

“ Even so, COME Lord JESUS”



In the NAME of the FATHER, and of the SON+, and of the HOLY SPIRIT + + +
