Word from the Lord through David P Griffiths, 03/01/25

“Easter Warning:”

“The Establishment ‘Church’ will Talk About the Crucifixion,

but not as the Apostle Paul Did.”

 

“The major difference between the teaching of the apostle Paul & that of today’s ‘establishment’ is the declaration that he was crucified with Christ, that he lived, not him, but Christ.

​

Galatians 2:20 Authorized (King James) Version

20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.

 

“This is supported by John, who declared that as He is, so are we in this world.

​

1 John 4:17 Authorized (King James) Version

17 Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world.

 

In the opening chapters of the Epistle to the Ephesians, Paul talked of being raised up with Him.

​

Ephesians 2:6 Authorized (King James) Version

6 and hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:

 

And so, when we come to realise the difference in emphasis between what is being taught in the establishment & how the Bible presents the crucifixion, we realise that the establishment ‘Church’ is one warned about in the Bible as having a form of godliness, but denies the power, with no signs & wonders confirming the Word, there being a demand for a demonstration of God’s power after the true preaching & teaching of God’s Word.

 

2 Timothy 3:5 Authorized (King James) Version

5 having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.

 

Mark 16:20 Authorized (King James) Version

20 And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.

 

“This comes to understanding of Paul’s teaching about the Rhema Word of God above the Logos, the Rhema being the Holy Spirit bringing to remembrance that which has been studied by the true saint, of significant scriptures in relation to the crucifixion.

​

Ephesians 6:17-18 Authorized (King James) Version

17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: 18 praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;

 

2 Timothy 2:15 Authorized (King James) Version

15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

 

The textual critics, which dominate the establishment ‘Church’, full of philosophy & deceit, question whether the healing of the physical body relates to what Jesus took upon Him on the cross. Yet, the very first covenant promise of God relates healing to hearing.

​

Colossians 2:8 Authorized (King James) Version

8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.

 

Exodus 15:26 Authorized (King James) Version

26 and said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the Lord that healeth thee.

 

John 3:14 Authorized (King James) Version

14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:

 

Romans 10:17 Authorized (King James) Version

17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

 

“Proverbs declares to attend to the Word of the Lord. The birds of Leviticus give clear indication of the shedding of blood in relation to healing, so how much more should the shedding of Jesus’ blood relate to the healing of physical bodies?

​

Proverbs 4:20-22 Authorized (King James) Version

20 My son, attend to my words;
incline thine ear unto my sayings.
21 Let them not depart from thine eyes;
keep them in the midst of thine heart.
22 For they are life unto those that find them,
and health to all their flesh

 

Leviticus 14:1-7 Authorized (King James) Version

And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying, 2 This shall be the law of the leper in the day of his cleansing: He shall be brought unto the priest: 3 and the priest shall go forth out of the camp; and the priest shall look, and, behold, if the plague of leprosy be healed in the leper; 4 then shall the priest command to take for him that is to be cleansed two birds alive and clean, and cedar wood, and scarlet, and hyssop: 5 and the priest shall command that one of the birds be killed in an earthen vessel over running water: 6 as for the living bird, he shall take it, and the cedar wood, and the scarlet, and the hyssop, and shall dip them and the living bird in the blood of the bird that was killed over the running water: 7 and he shall sprinkle upon him that is to be cleansed from the leprosy seven times, and shall pronounce him clean, and shall let the living bird loose into the open field.

 

Hebrews 9:13-14 Authorized (King James) Version

13 For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh: 14 how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?

 

Paul, in his teaching to the Romans, declared that of the same spirit that raised Christ from the dead dwell within you, He shall quicken your mortal body.

 

Romans 8:11 Authorized (King James) Version

11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.

 

“So, when we read Isaiah 53 in this context, we discover three key words: BORNE (NASA), GRIEFS & SORROWS (CHOLI & MAKOB), which Jesus Himself relates to sicknesses & disease, when He declared,

​

Matthew 8:16-17 Authorized (King James) Version

16 When the even was come, they brought unto him many that were possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits with his word, and healed all that were sick: 17 that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses.

 

“In this context, we read that by the stripes of Jesus we are healed, & through Peter, that we were healed, proving that our ministry today, that we are as Jesus on this earth; that we are living out the fulfilment of what Isaiah said, proving the declaration of Jesus in His Great Commission to the Church, the true Church, that we shall lay hands on the sick, & they shall recover.

​

Isaiah 53:5 Authorized (King James) Version

5 But he was wounded for our transgressions,
he was bruised for our iniquities:
the chastisement of our peace was upon him;
and with his stripes we are healed.

 

1 Peter 2:24 Authorized (King James) Version

24 who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.

 

Mark 16:18 Authorized (King James) Version

18 they shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

 

And oh! Do not take all this as a formula, for one has to be crucified with Christ to be resurrected with Him, to walk the heavenly places high above principality & power, understanding entirely what Paul wrote to the Colossians about what He achieved on the cross, & in His resurrection, we being His body, members of His body, flesh & bones, as Paul declared to the Ephesians.

​

Ephesians 1:18-23 Authorized (King James) Version

18 the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints, 19 and what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power, 20 which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places, 21 far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come: 22 and hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church, 23 which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.

 

Ephesians 1:3 Authorized (King James) Version

3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:

 

Ephesians 1:20 Authorized (King James) Version

20 which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places,

 

Ephesians 2:6 Authorized (King James) Version

6 and hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:

 

Ephesians 3:9-11 Authorized (King James) Version

9 and to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ: 10 to the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God, 11 according to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord:

 

Colossians 1:21-29 Authorized (King James) Version

21 And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled 22 in the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight: 23 if ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard, and which was preached to every creature which is under heaven; whereof I Paul am made a minister; 24 who now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up that which is behind of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for his body’s sake, which is the church: 25 whereof I am made a minister, according to the dispensation of God which is given to me for you, to fulfil the word of God; 26 even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints: 27 to whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory: 28 whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus: 29 whereunto I also labour, striving according to his working, which worketh in me mightily.

 

Colossians 2:6-15 Authorized (King James) Version

6 As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him: 7 rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving. 8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. 9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. 10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power: 11 in whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ: 12 buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead. 13 And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses; 14 blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross; 15 and having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.

 

“And so, will the establishment ‘Church’ teach & declare all these benefits? No, but rather take part in a scam communion service that fails to discern the Lord’s body, hence all the deaths related to the establishment ‘Church’.”

​

1 Corinthians 11:23-34 Authorized (King James) Version

23 For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, That the Lord Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed took bread: 24 and when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me. 25 After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me. 26 For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord’s death till he come. 27 Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord. 28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup. 29 For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord’s body. 30 For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep. 31 For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged. 32 But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world. 33 Wherefore, my brethren, when ye come together to eat, tarry one for another. 34 And if any man hunger, let him eat at home; that ye come not together unto condemnation. And the rest will I set in order when I come.
