Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel. Prophesy and say to those shepherds, ‘This is what the Lord GOD says: “Woe, shepherds of Israel who have been feeding themselves! Should the shepherds not feed the flock? You eat the fat and clothe yourselves with the wool, you slaughter the fat sheep without feeding the flock. (v.2-3)

I will seek the lost, bring back the scattered, bind up the broken, and strengthen the sick; but the fat and the strong I will eliminate. I will feed them with judgment. (v.16)

God curses false teachers, prophets, and apostles in this age who exploit His chosen people and speak lies about Him. In this chapter, God does not talk only to the Israelite leaders in the OT time but also to Christians in this age. I think the dream I had in 2016 is connected to this chapter and also Romans 3:11-18.

The common misunderstanding of Christians is that everyone in their churches will go to heaven. And most of them think the office bearers will receive more glory than others in the coming kingdom of God. It is wrong. What churches and their leaders are doing is evil. There is not a single minister or theologian who speaks truths of God. Many elders support people who do evil and they themselves do evil deeds. All have gone astray because ministers, theologians, and their followers love the ways of Aquinas and likewise theologians of the Roman Catholic church. They hate Sola Gratia. If God wanted a minister to do this job of proclaiming the start of the third reformation, He would not have made me start this blog. I looked very hard to find a minister but could not.

There are few who speak truths of God. True Christians are threatened and dominated by false Christians. False Christians promote pious living, but they do not live such life. Most importantly, they have no knowledge of God. They are satisfied with their life on the earth. And they think they do all the works to earn salvation.

True Christians know how they are saved. They know the triune God and the works of the Holy Spirit. They put all their hope in God and His kingdom. When they read the Bible, they share the same knowledge because of the Son and the Holy Spirit.

“Two men went up into the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. The Pharisee stood and began praying this in regard to himself: ‘God, I thank You that I am not like other people: swindlers, crooked, adulterers, or even like this tax collector. I fast twice a week; I pay tithes of all that I get.’ But the tax collector, standing some distance away, was even unwilling to raise his eyes toward heaven, but was beating his chest, saying, ‘God, be merciful to me, the sinner!’ I tell you, this man went to his house justified rather than the other one; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but the one who humbles himself will be exalted.” (Luke 18:10-14)

Ezekiel 34 clearly tells us that God does not love everyone. God loves only His chosen sheep. And He gives them to His Son.

Then I will appoint over them one shepherd, My servant David, and he will feed them; he will feed them himself and be their shepherd. And I, the LORD, will be their God, and My servant David will be prince among them; I the LORD have spoken. (v.23-24)

“I am the good shepherd; the good shepherd lays down His life for the sheep. He who is a hired hand, and not a shepherd, who is not the owner of the sheep, sees the wolf coming, and leaves the sheep and flees; and the wolf snatches them and scatters the flock. He flees because he is a hired hand and does not care about the sheep. I am the good shepherd, and I know My own, and My own know Me, just as the Father knows Me and I know the Father; and I lay down My life for the sheep. And I have other sheep that are not of this fold; I must bring them also, and they will listen to My voice; and they will become one flock, with one shepherd. For this reason the Father loves Me, because I lay down My life so that I may take it back. No one has taken it away from Me, but I lay it down on My own. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to take it back. This commandment I received from My Father.” (John 10:11-18)

Ministers and theologians must have a good understanding of the kingdom of God and the works of the Holy Spirit. Sadly, most of them are drunk with the madness of human philosophies. They follow lies like the Covenant Theology and the Active Obedience of Christ. They think they have the knowledge of God because they have the PhD in theology and/or read many theology books. When they speak or write “the kingdom” or “the Holy Spirit”, their own words and writings show that they have no knowledge. They are merely repeating what others have written. What they are interested in is their reputation and wealth on the earth.

We must remember God sends false shepherds so that the reprobate will follow them. And the elect people of God will suffer. Through the suffering, the elect are trained in truths by the words of God and the Holy Spirit, and eagerly wait for the second coming of Christ. On the judgment day of God, God punishes both false shepherds and their followers for eternity.

For behold, I am going to raise up a shepherd in the land who will not care for the perishing, seek the scattered, heal the broken, or provide for the one who is exhausted, but will devour the flesh of the fat sheep and tear off their hoofs. “Woe to the worthless shepherd who abandons the flock! A sword will be on his arm and on his right eye! His arm will be totally withered, And his right eye will be blind.” (Zechariah 11:16-17)

When I saw the white horse in 2019, I only thought of the coming of Christ. Now I know that the white horse, the first seal, has announced that Christ’s ruling of the earth.

Then the seventh angel sounded; and there were loud voices in heaven, saying, “The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of His Christ; and He will reign forever and ever.” (Revelation 11:15)

The earthly shadows of the kingdom of God will be destroyed as the real one is approaching.

Jesus answered them, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.” (John 2:19)
