                           The Bridegroom comes!   
                           COME OUT to meet him!   
      
   Jesus' coming is now nearer than ever, but how many Christians are   
   there that really prepare themselves? Some Christians say we must   
   be ready when Jesus comes, yet, they are against that people prepare   
   themselves to meet him. Partly they want to convey the message that   
   Jesus comes soon, and partly they want to defend the religious   
   harlot-being. They talk about revival and dream about revival, but   
   they themselves do not wake up.   
      
   They can stand in their fine churches and pray for revival, but it is   
   not a revival from God that they want. Really they are terrified that   
   a revival from God would shake up their own church so that the   
   members begin to awake and begin to think, for then they would   
   lose the control over their members. But it is just this that must   
   happen. The churches must lose the control over their members   
   and all Christians must leave these harlot-beings before Jesus   
   comes.   
      
   "... let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily   
   beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us."   
   Hebr. 12:1. A grave obstacle, which hinders many Christians in   
   their spiritual growth in Christ, is their membership in churches   
   and denominations. They are subordinate to an assembly doctrine   
   which is against God's word, and they are also subordinate to the   
   spiritual powers of evil which stand behind that doctrine.   
      
   Throw off you the devil's yoke of bondage, and go out to the   
   freedom to which God has called you, and be not entangled again   
   with the yoke of bondage. Gal. 5:1. "Ye are bought with a price;   
   be not yet the servant of men."1 Cor. 7:23.   
      
   Soon the Lord will repay the great whore for her deeds. Therefore,   
   he says to his people, "Flee out of the midst of Babylon, and   
   deliver every man his 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." Jeremiah 51:6. "The voice of them that flee and   
   escape out of the land of Babylon, to declare in Zion the   
   vengeance of his temple." Jeremiah 50:28.   
      
   "Depart ye, depart ye, go ye out from thence, touch no unclean   
   thing; go ye out of the midst of her; be ye clean, that bear the   
   vessels of the Lord. For ye shall not go out with haste, nor go   
   by flight: for the Lord will go before you; and the God of Israel   
   will be your rereward." Isaiah 52:11-12.   
      
   We do not need to flee in panic, for the Lord is with us.   
   Nevertheless, this presumes that we leave the religious harlot-   
   being while there is yet time. When Sodom and Gomorrah   
   were destroyed, Lot must flee for his life from the city.   
   Genesis 19th Chapter. Consider, if Lot had left the city any   
   month earlier, then he could leave in peace and he could   
   have both his wife and his private property intact.   
      
   "Likewise also it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they   
   drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded;   
   But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire   
   and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. Even   
   thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed."   
   Luke 17:28-30. When God's people come out from Babylon   
   the Great, God's judgement comes over it immediately!   
   Then it will be a great delight in heaven. A great multitude   
   in heaven say: "Allelujah: for the Lord God omnipotent   
   reigneth. Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him:   
   for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made   
   herself ready." Rev. 19:1-9.   
      
   "Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what   
   fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what   
   communion hath light with darkness? And what concord hath   
   Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an   
   infidel? And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols?   
   for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will   
   dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and   
   they shall be my people. Therefore come out from among them,   
   and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean   
   thing; and I will receive you, And will be a Father unto you, and   
   ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty."   
   2 Cor. 6:14-18.   
      
   "Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins,   
   and that ye receive not of her plagues. For her sins have reached   
   unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities."   
   Rev. 18:4-5. This revival message of the Lord is also a prophetic   
   prediction that God's people on the last days are in the harlot-being   
   that is called Babylon the Great. This does not imply that God's   
   people are responsible to the sins of Babylon. But if you do not   
   obey this command of the Lord, and do not leave the religious   
   harlot-being though you know the truth, then you make yourself   
   accessory in her sins and receive your share in her plagues.   
      
   God's people must come out from Babylon before Jesus comes.   
   When else would it take place? After Jesus has come, it cannot   
   happen because then God's people are home at the Lord.   
      
   It will not be any collective marching out. Every Christian must   
   decide to leave church. You yourself must decide to leave church.   
   Do not wait that your friends or other Christians shall go first, so   
   that you can slink out along with them. For it is not only an   
   organizing resignation from the church, but you must be free   
   from the catholic harlot-spirit within the church. There are two   
   spiritual powers which struggle for your soul. The one is the   
   religious harlot-spirit that wants to keep its grasp of yours.   
   The other power is the Holy Spirit who by God's word wants   
   to make you free from the religious harlot-being. The truth   
   will make you free.   
      
   It seems as many churches are living Christian churches, but it   
   is because there are many living Christians there. Nevertheless,   
   these living Christians ought not to be in the churches. Consider   
   that all churches, also the Free-churches, are relatives to the   
   Catholic Church. The relationship between the Free-Churches   
   and the Catholic Church is now evident. The Free-Churches   
   seek fellowship with the Catholic Church and its false priesthood   
   against which the old revival pioneers were fighting!
