The Greatest Evidence of the Covenant

Matthew 21:23-27 / So they answered Jesus, "We don't know." Then he said, "Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things." (27)

Hymn #545 Down in the Valley Where the Mists of Doubt Arise (Unified Hymn 344)

Because of their messiah ideology, the Jewish people neither believed that Jesus was the Son of God nor in His power. That's why in Matthew 13, Jesus used parables to avoid revealing what was truly worthy. Here, there's something that must surely be known. Why did Jesus say that, among those born of women, there hadn't risen anyone greater than John the Baptist? Why did Jesus want to be baptized by him? John the Baptist was a member of the priestly tribe known by all people and was the one who baptized others. On the Day of Atonement, just as John the Baptist had laid his hands on the head of a lamb to forgive people's sins, he placed his hands on Jesus' head and began to pray. Because John the Baptist knew that Jesus was the true Priest who would take away all sins; the true King who would overcame Satan's power; and the true Prophet who would open the way to meet God, he put the sins of all the people on Jesus' head. (Matthew 3:15) Afterward, Jesus was crucified on the cross. But before His death, Jesus said that He would resurrect on the third day. (1 Corinthians 15:20) You must grab hold of this covenant and challenge toward the 237, healing, and Summit.

1.120 People
Ultimately, 120 people who understood this covenant emerged. These people knew about the events of Calvary, (Liberation) the answers (Prayer) that were received at the Mt. of Olives, and gathered at Mark's upper room. There, they did world evangelization.

2. Paul
Paul understood those words as well. That's why he healed those who seemed worthless; (Acts 13:5-12 those with spiritual problems, (Acts 16:16-18) and those who worshiped idols. (Acts 19:8-20)

3. Remnants Who Are within a Wandering People
The Israelites who had become a wandering people, went into powerful nations. There, the Remnants who remained evangelized the world. They stood as "those who remained, those who remain, those who will remain, those who will leave behind, pilgrims, and conquerors." Starting now, "platforms; watchtowers; and antennas" must be built so that the 237 multiethnic people can come.

However, before that can take place, there's something that must be restored. On Sundays, you must hold onto the message throughout the day; have a time of deep prayer; and forum with others regarding the covenant. By seeing those evidences, other people will come. For those precious multiethnic people; Remnants; and those struggling to survive, the first; last; and eternal opportunities must be made.

[Covenantal Prayer] Dear God, thank you for granting me the opportunity to receive true grace. Please help me restore the true power that comes down from above. Ultimately, help me save those nations that are being deceived and forcibly enduring as well as countries that are powerful and weak. In Jesus Christ's name, I pray. Amen.
