Open Letter to the Body of Christ: December 15, 2008The following is an excerpt from "Enemies of This Final Regime; The Dawning of the New Day" by G.J. Gadwa II.
The United States was truly founded by men who cared about freedom; of that there is no question. We have hailed them as great men of conviction and indeed many of them were. However, it is not clear that any of the nation's forefathers were truly brothers in the faith; the faith that the gospels speak about. As you read the speeches of these national founders you find that they did not exalt the name of Jesus. Though we know that the heart of the king is in the hands of the Lord, it is not to say that they had any interest in following His command. Their faith in God was evidently in the absence of the blood of Christ. Although the Lord sets down one and raises another, He did not call His blood-washed disciples to that political platform.
God has His way with the leaders of this world. He gives them over to its prince. Through the hardening and softening of hearts He uses them to work His plan among men. Most believers fail to see this difference, which is why they also become entangled with worldly affairs.
The apostle Paul admitted to the authorities that he was a Roman citizen. However, he plainly declared that his citizenship is in heaven, and strived to persuade us of the same. Jesus said to Pilate, "My Kingdom is not of this world."
John 18:36 Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if My kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews; but now is My kingdom not from hence. KJV
Jesus was, and is, far removed from the politics of this world. He always has been, and always will be. As He was about His Father's business, so ought the ones who love their Father's business be far removed from the political platform. I know that this is difficult for many who have accepted this political arena as part of the gospel of Christ. It is our love and affection for this life, (namely sports and entertainment) that tend to lead us into the political arena. It is all part of a dying age. Those who truly seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness find themselves in no place to even attempt to settle worldly issues by earthly means. They have already cast their eternal vote for the Son of God.
Many Christians are deceived into voting for those who they think would help make this country and our world a better and safer place to live. They believe in defending a freedom and liberty that their elected officials have actually been taking away from them through this war on terror. They vote for a man or a woman who would be the least of two evils.
God has not called His Sons to engage in such matters. He is in control and in this time He is calling His people out from among kingdoms and nations, so that their allegiance will be totally unto Him and His coming Kingdom.
There is nothing left of this earthy kingdom that God is any more interested in restoring, apart from creation itself. The shells are all on the ground and there is nothing left. The sooner we wake to this, the sooner we leave our affection for this present life behind us and get on with our Father's business. If we truly set our mind and our affection on things above, we will in turn overcome the many things that have been overcoming us. There is no hope, but faith in Him, and Him alone. We are entering into the final hours of this age. This age is presently in the throes of death. It is not time to vote, but rather time to get down on our knees and allow deep to cry unto deep.
The tower of Babel was stopped as men were trying to reach heaven. Their languages were confounded. Now, after so many years, the lingual pieces have been put back together, and construction of this new tower continues to reach upward. There is none that can make war with this beast, but the lion of the Tribe of Judah. He is THE only match for this final regime. Those who choose to follow the Shepherd's voice are becoming one with the purposes of their Father. These will grow less and less attached to this world's system the closer they draw to the Bridegroom.
Matthew 25:6-10 And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him. Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out. But the wise answered, saying, not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves. And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.
The wise virgins are trimming their lamps. They will hear the cry at midnight to go out and meet the Bridegroom. These virgins will find Him in the night (in the great tribulations) and when they do, they shall enter into His chamber and never go out from Him again forever.
The leading nations of the world have been moving in very deep deception throughout the 20th century. Our leaders have been part of a very dark plan for world peace. It amazes me that we hear people say, "No, Jesus, no peace. Know Jesus, know peace;" but they really have their hope set in men who they believe can make this a better place to live. The men and women who are offering their services in this regard are often caught up in nurturing the beast and are not aware of it. It is my belief that some day soon, one planetary official will head up this system in the personage of satan himself. His deception will be formerly unmatched and multitudes will wonder after the Beast.
Revelation 13:3 And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.
The Lord has placed His people in various positions of governmental authority throughout history. We know this to be true. However, the Spirit of Truth has been more and more rejected in those arenas. Thereby, it is becoming more and more impossible for any true disciple of Christ to work therein. Any blood-washed saint will find it increasingly difficult to remain in those positions without violating their own conscience.
We must be about our Father's business. God is calling on all who will put their trust in Him to come out from among them and be separate. He is separating his people unto Himself. Many will not listen and will be swallowed up in this great flood. There are lies on every side, It is not possible to go into any store, look at any TV program, surf most anywhere on the internet where the devil has not laid claim upon the souls of men.
I do not see how we can vote for any man in this hour, and be totally apprehended of God. It is utterly important for believers to discern the time we are living in, and realize that we are called not to take part in this present deception and compromise.
True disciples of Christ only have one choice in this hour. The Lord is calling men everywhere unto His Kingdom with full allegiance. Many will not understand. The fact that many will not understand leads to estrangement. This, in turn leads to betrayal where there is no hunger for understanding and truth. The road to such betrayal is found where the love of the Truth is not received.
Christians who stand behind nations who are uniting for a one-world government are in danger of joining them. That union leads to a falling away from the faith. The fruit of such a union will be seen in the slaughter of all defined "terrorist" in the name of the Lord; even and especially the end-time disciples of Christ.
There is only one faithful, truthful, equitable and eternal kingdom to which we are called to give our total allegiance. It is that very Kingdom that we are told to seek first and foremost. It is the Kingdom of righteousness. It shall fill the whole earth, and thereby is referred to as the City of Truth.
The Father has a people who will say together with their Lord and King, "My kingdom is not of this world." Brethren, our Kingdom is not of this world. You are called to cry out in the mist of this darkness, "My Father says so." Our Father has things He desires to bring to earth in this last time. Not the voices any longer of the opinions of men, but a straightforward cry from the throne of God.
