Greetings Brethren,

As we complete this series we cry out to God for His blessings. Father we have did as we have been instructed. We trust that you will continue to give us the strength to do your will. Father also when our time comes to be at rest we pray that we will be of a Spiritual mind in acceptance of the fate that will befall and arise in all of humankind.

Have mercy Father on those that are lost. We pray for the return of the remnant. However it is written that many will stay lost. However the Messengers must render the Word regardless of acceptance because they have no control over the hearts and minds of the people.

Peace and Love, Your Brother in Christ Carl Patton writing for the FreedomJournal November 11, 2003, in the year of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

WHERE IS THE REMNANT?

PART 31: A FINAL THOUGHT ON THE REMNANT

IN THE NAME OF GOD MASTER OF THE UNIVERSE, RULER OF THE EARTH

Greetings brethren it is our hearts desire and that of God for all humankind to be saved. However salvation comes by choice. You have to choose to be with God and not man. To our Supreme Father we give thanks, praise and all the glory. We are also very grateful for His son our savior Jesus Christ who died and got up out of the grave for us. He then sent us the Holy Spirit as He ascended back to the Father. Thus we are just as grateful for the power of God within us that is the Holy Spirit.

Father many have forsaken you and still deny the Creation and all that it represents. The unbelievers have come in many forms. Some are in the Church claiming to be believers but also reject much Truth from the Bible.

Throughout this series we have searched for the remnant. We found a remnant among those that were exiled and held captive during the trials of the Jews. However the remnant during the Old Law were told of the coming Christ. The coming Christ would remove the need for many of the rituals of sacrificing and bringing Tithes. Thus the Bible by way of the inspired writers noted that there would be a transition from the Old to the New. But many rejected the Messiah and failed to make the transition. Therefore is there a remnant among those that have rejected Christ? Can you reject Christ and still be a remnant?

For the record when we use the word remnant we refer to those that have accepted Christ and are righteous. But there is also a remnant that see much of God during contemporary times but have not embraced the True Gospel. This remnant will thusly come to Christ before the Day of Judgment. We pray for their return. Meanwhile the remnant during the Old Law were the people of Israel that were obedient to God. These same people then paid heed to the prophecy of the coming Christ and embraced him when he arrived. The record is clear that all Jews did not reject Christ nor did all Gentiles embrace Christ.

So as Christ walked the earth teaching and preaching the Good News we saw a remnant among those that embraced Truth. Before we proceed we note that one of the Greatest problems in the Church today is the lack of knowledge. This lack of knowledge is noted in the mis-information and non- information regarding the chronological history of the Church. Alongside of the lack of knowledge regarding the Biblical history of the Church is the absence of knowledge about the secular history of the establishment of the Church and the history of humankind.

Many are brainwashed in the Church. Also for the record the denominational and non-denominational Churches do not have an exclusive hold on ignorance and mis-information. Many factors of ignorance and lack of knowledge also exist among many of the Churches that are called the Lord’s Church (Church of Christ). Let it be written that NO Church is a Church of Christ that is filled with False Doctrine. False Doctrines are rituals, practices etc. that do not have a Bible base. For example False Doctrines are things that are man-made and have an origin in Satan. The use of images and the belief in Cremation are examples of False Doctrines. We have recently found the False Doctrines just mentioned among many people that claim to be members of the Lord’s Church.

So as Jesus brought his message the remnant was found among the true believers. As he left us He sent back the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit called out within the righteous and many stayed with God and the Messiah. However as the Church spread to Europe many False Doctrines came into existence that were considered to be Godly. As a Church (Babylon) arose by way of a confused ruler who defiled the original teachings the world witnessed the merger of Church and State. Meanwhile the Bible was removed and the real Church went into hiding.

With the Reformation Movement the merger of Church and State was removed but Babylon still existed. Also out of the attempted Reformation of Babylon many sects among the Christians came into existence. Also the true Church came out of hiding.

With the lust for economic wealth the people of Europe embarked on a campaign to claim the riches of world. In this campaign many people of the Third World were cast in chains and forced to work for free. The record shows that to justify the economic goals a philosophy of racism was created. Some of this philosophy also became a part of the False Doctrines in the Church that had been in hiding. Thus the Church of Christ was not immune to the prominent philosophy of the day that propelled economic racism.

Through pictures of a White God, a White Jesus and the European origin of the Prophets, Apostles etc. the notion of White Supremacy was instilled into the minds of those that came into the Church. This tragic ungodly act was very effective among the children and the young. These young people eventually grew up to be adults and they taught their children and the vicious cycle of things not of God have continued even among the Church today.

So the remnant that is described as God’s people and those in line for the free gift of salvation are among many denominations and churches. The true remnant brethren are those that embrace the Truth of God in their heart.

“There was once a man baptized among the Church of Christ. He was told that he was not truly baptized unless he was baptized in the Lord’s Church. He was baptized. However the man who baptized him was a False Prophet. But the man that was baptized had a true heart for God and he stayed with God and was able to see the False Teaching. He was saved and reaped the prize of Peace and Paradise.

There was also a man who was baptized in a Baptist Church. He was also baptized by a False Prophet. However this man also had a good heart and stayed with God throughout. He saw the many false teachings and spoke out about them. He also was saved and reaped the prize.”

Peace and Love,
