Good Morning and Welcome, year to date we have been ministering on the parables of Jesus as they relate to the end of days. We have understood that in the area of mysteries that God, has hidden things for us, not from us. We have realized that the Church must stay abreast of what changes and what doesn t change. I believe that was what Paul was admonishing Timothy to do, Preach the Word, be instant in season and out of season.

In season, in my mind translates to when its popular , out of season translates to me, when it s not popular .

if he shall come in the second watch, or come in the third watch, and find them so, blessed are those servants. 39And this know, that if the goodman of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched, and not have suffered his house to be broken through. 40Be ye therefore ready also: for the Son of man cometh at an hour when ye think not.
38And

learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh: 33So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors. 34Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.
Matt: 24.32Now

The Church part 18 The Past, Present and Parabolic

be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh. 45Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season? 46Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.
44Therefore

The Church part 18 The Past, Present and Parabolic

I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods. 48But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming; 49And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken; 50The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of,
47Verily

The Church part 18 The Past, Present and Parabolic

Stop, and think for a minute, Do you think that the coming of the Lord is near, or has the scoffers, those who delay His coming and the cynicism of serving God caused you to forget

put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field: 25But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way. 26But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also.
Matt: 13.24Another parable

The Church part 18 The Past, Present and Parabolic

the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares? 28He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up? 29But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them.
27So

30Let

both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.

The Church part 18 The Past, Present and Parabolic

What are you spending your time doing, minister unto the Lord, Let the Lord of the harvest take care of the tares .

those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests. 11And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment:
10So

he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless. 13Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness, there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Isaiah 4 1AND IN that day [a]seven women shall take hold of one man, saying, We will eat our own bread and provide our own apparel; only let us be called by your name to take away our reproach [of being unmarried]. Remember that in the Jewish wedding ceremony, the bridegroom supplies the wedding garments for the guest of honor. Righteousness in the spiritual sense is a garment or covering that we wear.

2In that day the Branch of the Lord shall be beautiful and glorious, and the fruit of the land shall be excellent and lovely to those of Israel who have escaped. 3And he who is left in Zion and remains in Jerusalem will be called holy, everyone who is recorded for life in Jerusalem and for [b]eternal life, 4After the Lord has washed away the [moral] filth of the daughters of Zion [pride, vanity, haughtiness] and has purged the bloodstains of Jerusalem from the midst of it by the spirit and blast of judgment and by the spirit and blast of burning and sifting.

5And the Lord will create over the whole site, over every dwelling place of Mount Zion and over her assemblies, a cloud and smoke by day and the shining of a flaming fire by night; for over all the glory shall be a canopy (a defense of divine love and protection). 6And there shall be a pavilion for shade in the daytime from the heat, and for a place of refuge and a shelter from storm and from rain.

Notice the duo set of mindsets inside of the church, we don t often equate independence with spiritual maturity in the same time period. We have in our minds that you will be in or out and we know who is who .

Matthew 25 1Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. 2And five of them were wise, and five were foolish. 3They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them: 4But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. 5While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. 6And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.

The Church part 18 The Past, Present and Parabolic

7Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. 8And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out. 9But 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.

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. 11Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us. 12But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.

I consider these to be religious people who all were aware of the time, went to church, gave their monies, yet never nurtured their relationship with God. Relationship is the key to oil, relationships are based on time and communication.. Remember the PERILOUS TIMES AND THE DESCRIPTION OF PAUL TO TIMOTHY . What is God doing in your life today, right now?

lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed: 27Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury. 28Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents.

Why do you think we have been concentrating so hard on the Word, or the Covenant. You see we have a King, and that King has a kingdom, kingdoms are different from democracies or other forms of government. We are a colony of believers who have come to represent this kingdom on this earth. We remain loyal and subject to our motherland. We are a distinct cultural citizenry of a foreign territory who are governed by our Home Government

The Church part 18 The Past, Present and Parabolic

God s kingdom has a government, it is the government of Heaven, this government has been committed to the kings and priests of the kingdom. Whether you understand it or not, you have been given the keys to this kingdom in order to prepare for the world order during the Millennial Reign.

The Church part 18 The Past, Present and Parabolic

We have been given these keys, by the King, in order to assist us in the function of our authority. We have trouble subduing when we refuse these keys. Authority Authorization Access Power Control Freedom

This world will experience a righteous reign for 1000 years, under the government that you are learning and spreading .. For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Isaiah 9:5-7

 Of the greatness of his government and peace there will be no end. He will reign on David s throne and over his kingdom, establishing and upholding it with justice and righteousness from that time on and forever. The zeal of the LORD Almighty will accomplish this. Isaiah 9:6-8

You have made them to be a kingdom and priests to serve our God, and they will reign on the earth. Revelation 5:10

I saw thrones on which were seated those who had been given authority to judge. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of their testimony about Jesus and because of the word of God. They had not worshiped the beast or its image and had not received its mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life and reigned with Christ a thousand years. Revelation 20:3-5

Blessed and holy are those who share in the first resurrection. The second death has no power over them, but they will be priests of God and of Christ and will reign with him for a thousand years. Revelation 20:5-7
