As Romans chapter 11 says, there are only 7000 of God’s elect in the final generation. Being that there will be more of the election of grace in the last generation than at any other time in this age’s history, it’s not every christian like the baptists like to think. The number of them is written there. If this is the last generation, there are more than 7000 christians, right? Paul said some of the election of grace have already lived, but God has reserved 7000 of them for the last generation.
The call will feel like an uncomfortable pulling. A thought that won’t leave telling the elect to read. This will happen right around the time one of the elect turns 25 years of age. The elect at some point will HAVE to answer this call. The longer they go without answering this call, the more uncomfortable they will feel. This inner agitation will make them feel like tearing the skin right from their body. They will feel like no matter where they are that they wouldn’t be in the right place. When they answer this call, these bad feelings will go away. Why does God make them feel badly? Because no human being will answer their call if they feel good.
All God wants them to do is to read a chapter, two, or three a day. That’s it. Anymore and the information that needs to be processed will not be. A little at a time is the only way the elect should read the Bible. There’s no way that you can read ten chapters a day and take in what all God is saying. No way. You can pass a trivia test, but you won’t get the understanding. That’s the most important part. The understanding.
The elect must and will understand God’s word for how He truly means it. No church or teaching of men gets it right, because they aren’t allowed to. Again in Romans 11 it says that all have been given the spirit of slumber. Eyes that they should not see and ears that they should not hear. This is for their own protection. This is why Jesus spoke to everyone in parables, except for his disciples. His disciples were of the elect. That’s why they knew the secrets of understanding God’s word. That’s why the disciples asked Jesus in Matthew 24:3 what are the signs of his coming and the end of the age. That word “world” there in the Greek originally is the word “aion” which means “age”. How did they know how to ask Jesus the signs of the end of the age? Because Jesus told them about the ages.
Jesus is against five of the seven churches of Christ, as it is written in Revelation 2-5. The only two he finds no fault in do not exist yet. Don’t let any denomination tell you that they are the ones to really figure it out. Read Jesus’ own words.
The elect must read on their own and erase any memory of what they have heard about what’s written in the Bible. This is the only way they can truly understand God’s word. To erase the sin and lack of understanding of men. When the elect have answered their call and excelled in their learning, they can understand this parable:
There was a man who had a son. This man was very good with his hands. He did the plumbing. He kept the car in order. He fixed up the house with his own hands. When the son was fully grown, he said to his father “teach me the secrets of working with your hands”. The father agreed to teach him, only under one condition: that he never calls anyone else “father”. The son agreed, so the father taught him the secrets of working with his hands. Not long after that a liar of a man approached the son and told him he was the real father of him. The son believed him and called him “father”. His real father, who taught him the secrets of working his hands found out and hit his son. His son had amnesia. He never did fully regain his memory. He did know who his father was though. One day he saw his father working on the car and had seen him working on the house. So he says, “teach me the secrets of working with your hands”. The father says “no, I already taught you and you did the one thing I told you not to do”.
