The Lord WARNED His hearers that NOT EVERYONE who appealed
to Him will ENTER into the KINGDOM OF HEAVEN - it is ONLY reseved for THOSE who "DOETH the WILL of MY FATHER
which is in HEAVEN" (Matthew 7:21)
This WARNING applies to "the GREAT DAY of HIS WRATH"
(Revelation 6:15-17), i.e. a "DAY of WRATH and RIGHTEOUS JUDGMENT ... EVERY MAN ACCORDING
TO HIS DEEDS" (Romans 2:5-6):
GLORY and HONOR and PEACE and IMMORTALITY for PATIENTLY
CONTINUING in WORKING GOOD - to "THE JEW FIRST, and ALSO ... THE GENTILE" (Romans 2:7,10 cf.Matthew 24:45-47;Matthew 25:34-40)
INDIGNATION and WRATH and TRIBULATION and ANGUISH for
OBEYING UNRIGHTEOUSNESS in DOING EVIL - to "THE JEW FIRST, and ALSO ... THE GENTILE" (Romans 2:8-9 cf.Matthew 24:48-51;Matthew 25:41-46)
Note MESSIAH'S KINGDOM PROMISES "to THEM that had
GOTTEN the VICTORY OVER THE BEAST ... OVER HIS IMAGE ... OVER HIS MARK ... OVER THE NUMBER OF HIS NAME" (Revelation 15:2):
"I will GIVE thee a CROWN OF LIFE" (Revelation 2:10),
i.e. "a CROWN OF GLORY that FADETH NOT AWAY" (I Peter 5:4)
that is "RESERVED IN HEAVEN" (I Peter 1:4)
"will I MAKE a PILLAR in the TEMPLE OF MY GOD ...
I will WRITE upon him the NAME OF MY GOD ... I will WRITE upon him MY NEW NAME" (Revelation 3:12 cf.Isaiah 62:2;Revelation 7:15)
"they shall PUT MY NAME upon the CHILDREN OF ISRAEL"
(Numbers 6:27)
"I have HALLOWED THIS HOUSE ... to PUT MY NAME THERE
for ever" (I Kings 9:3);
"in JERUSALEM, the CITY I have CHOSEN Me to PUT MY
NAME THERE"(I KIngs 11:36)
The "THEY" who are associated with that DAY
(I Thessalonians 5:3) are NOT the "WE" who BEFORE have been "CAUGHT UP ...
to MEET the Lord in the AIR" (I Thessalonians 4:17)
The "WONDERFUL WORKS" (Matthew 7:22),
associated with they who "WORK INIQUITY (LAWLESSNESS)" (Matthew 7:23), are in reference to "the MYSTERY (SECRET) of INIQUITY (LAWLESSNESS)"
(II Thessalonians 2:7)
The TRUE MESSIAH performed the SIGNS of His Kingdom OVERCOMING
SATANIC OPPOSITION (Matthew 12:25-26 cf.Matthew 8:31-32)
and, thus, CONFIRMING that SATAN will be BOUND during His MILLENIAL REIGN (Revelation 20:1-2)
The Lord associates they that "WORK INIQUITY (LAWLESSNESS)"
(Matthew 7:23) with they who claim to have done "IN THY NAME ... MANY WONDERFUL
WORKS" (Matthew 7:22)
It is "that WICKED (LAWLESS ONE)" (II Thessalonians 2:8)
who will OPEN "his MOUTH in BLASPHEMY AGAINST GOD, to BLASPHEME HIS NAME, and HIS TABERNACLE, and THEM that
dwell IN HEAVEN" (Revelation 13:6)
"And all that dwell UPON the EARTH shall WORSHIP
HIM whose NAMES are NOT WRITTEN in the Book of Life" (Revelation 13:8) and, thus, they shall be associated with his "BLASPHEMY AGAINST
GOD" (Revelation 13:6)
"And there was given unto him a MOUTH SPEAKING GREAT
THINGS and BLAPSHEMIES" (Revelation 13:5)
It will serve as a VISUAL reminder of his RESURRECTION
(Revelation 13:3,14) and, thus, he will BLASPHEME the UNFOLDED NAME "Jehovah"
(Exodus 6:3)
- "He is, He was, He will be" - the UNFOLDED NAME REVEALING RESURRECTION (Revelation 1:17-18 cp.Revelation 17:8)
The PUNISHMENT of the BEAST WORSHIPPERS (Revelation 14:9-10)
will be the EXECUTION of the LORD'S COMMAND to "DEPART FROM ME, YE CURSED, INTO EVERLASTING FIRE" (Matthew 25:41 cf.Matthew 7:23)
There will be a STEADY STREAM of "ALL FLESH to COME
and WORSHIP BEFORE ME, saith the Lord" (Isaiah 66:23 cf.Zechariah 8:22-23)
- and on their WAY OUT, "they shall GO FORTH, and LOOK UPON the CARCASES" of them "that have TRANSGRESSED
AGAINST ME ... and they shall be an ABHORRING UNTO ALL FLESH" (Isaiah 66:24 cf.Mark 9:43,45,47)
ONCE A YEAR - there will be a MANDATORY REQUIREMENT for
"EVERY ONE ... LEFT OF ALL THE NATIONS ... to WORSHIP THE KING, THE LORD OF HOSTS ... to KEEP THE FEAST OF
TABERNACLES" (Zechariah 14:16) - FAILURE TO COMPLY will result in the SAME FIERY JUDGMENT as that
of THOSE WHO "FOUGHT AGAINST JERUSALEM" (Zechariah 14:18-19 cf.Zechariah 14:12)
at MESSIAH'S RETURN (Acts 1:11-12 cf.Zechariah 14:3-4)
