THE SMALL REMNANT

We all see how history repeat itself and how it unfolded before our very eyes.  See how it happened before in Israel and how it is repeated today in our time.

History merely repeats itself. It has all been done before. Nothing under the sun is truly new. (Ecclesiastes 1:9)

Heaven and earth, listen! This is what the Lord says:

“I raised my children and helped them grow up,
            but they have turned against me.
³ A bull knows its master,
    and a donkey knows where its owner feeds it.
But Israel does not know me.
    My people do not understand.”

⁴ Oh, what a sinful nation! Their guilt is like a heavy weight that they must carry. They are evil, destructive children.^[a] They left the Lord and insulted the Holy One of Israel. They turned away and treated him like a stranger.  (Isaiah 1:2-4)

God said “I raised my children and helped them grow up, but they have turned against me.”

How did the children of God today in the Church of Christ turned against God?  In the book of Jeremiah 5:30 this is written:

“A terrible and shocking thing has happened in the land: ³¹ prophets speak nothing but lies; priests rule as the prophets command, and my people offer no objections.”

In other renditions of the bible it says “my people like it that way”  Clearly, the children of God whom He raised and helped grow up turned against Him when they consented to what is happening in our dear Holy Church.   Isn’t this what is unfolding before our eyes today?  Brethren - multitudes of them consenting to the evil and corruption being perpetrated by the spurious leaders of the INC?

What else did God declare further?  He said “Israel does not know me.  My people do not understand.”  God even cited as an example the bull that knows its master and the donkey that knows where its owner feeds it.  But the children of God do not know Him for when it was time to oppose and stand up for what is right, His people offer no objections.   Isn’t this a photocopy of what we are seeing today?  Brethren who used to say they are of God and even took an oath saying they will “defend the Church against all her enemies whomsoever” but now declare they are one with EVM and has completely forgotten about God!  Truly they are the fulfillment of what the prophet Isaiah prophesied saying:

“These people honor me with their words,
    but I am not really important to them.
⁹ Their worship of me is worthless.
    The things they teach are only human rules.”

Today in our time, these people notably the Mandirigma (warriors) and the corrupt ministers in the INC of EVM take turns in heavily criticizing us alleging that we left the Church and have therefore forfeited our share in the salvific works of the Last Messenger.  They attack us left and right in social media for our acts of courage when we stood up for what is right.  We are the very small remnant who are now continuing the task of serving our Almighty God and our Lord Jesus Christ.   Why are we so sure that what happened to Israel before is happening to the INC today thus history indeed repeat itself?  In the same chapter of the same book of the prophet Isaiah this is written in verse 4:

                “Oh, what a sinful nation!”

God is referring to an entire nation of Israel and not just a few!   In our time today, the fulfillment is the entire institution of the Church of Christ headed by EVM.  It does NOT refer to the small remnant.   And if we continue to read the verse it says:

“They are evil, destructive children.  They left the Lord and insulted the Holy One of Israel.  They turned away and treated Him like a stranger.”

They are evil as manifested in their attacks on social media, the hate campaign, the cheating and the exaction of money from the brethren.  They even order God to kill us!  They are destructive children as what can be seen in the families and friends they destroy!  They left the Lord - the entire institution left the Lord by switching loyalty from God to EVM.   They praise EVM and thank him for everything thereby totally leaving out God making Him a forgotten God.  

What did these abominable things do to our Lord Jesus, the Holy One of Israel?  They insulted him!   An insult in the highest order!  An insult to the founder of the Church, the begotten Son of God, the Savior of God’s people, the man who suffered and died on the cross so that we may live.

To all those who continue to mock the small remnant, may the words of God as we cited in this piece be an eye opener to you while there is still time.
