Enter Unto Fullness — George Warnock

I've memorized and quoted and ministered from it many, many times, and yet every time I've ministered on it, I've realized it's hardly scratched the surface, and I know it'll be the same this morning.

The Spirit of Wisdom and Revelation

There's such a depth in the truth of this passage here, and like I've mentioned so often when the Apostle Paul was writing to the Ephesians, he was writing of such depth, of such fullness, of such heights, of such expanses, that he knew it wasn't within the ability of man to hear or to receive what he was saying.

Then why would he say it? Well, he says it because you and I who have the Spirit have the capacity to hear words which are inaudible, to see things which are invisible, to comprehend things which are beyond all comprehension.

We have the capacity if we have the Spirit. I say the capacity, that that capacity must become enlarged and enlarged by the Spirit of God in order that we might be able to embrace the heights and the depths of the infinite expanses of God's truth and of his love and glory.

And so when Paul would declare something, then he'd stop and pray, chapter 1, that God might give them the Spirit of wisdom and the revelation and the knowledge of him, the eyes of their understanding being enlightened, that they might know.

He must stop and pray that God would give them that. Sure, they had the Spirit, but he still prayed that they would have the Spirit of wisdom and revelation. We're inclined to put such a sense of finality upon experiences we have.

I've got the Spirit. I remember when I was baptized with the Holy Spirit. And so did the Ephesians, for it was Paul himself who came to Ephesus and found a few disciples and laid his hands upon them and prayed that they would receive the Holy Spirit.

That was many years before he wrote this. But here he's praying to God that they might have the Spirit of wisdom and revelation and the knowledge of him. You can't put a sense of finality on experiences we've had.

Yes, I know God, but still I must come to know him. And the more you come to know him, the less you feel you do know him. And that's inclined to cause you to enter into a certain sense of frustration, and you say, I don't know him as much now as I did ten years ago.

And it's only because your capacity has become enlarged and your concept of God has become enlarged. Whereas ten years ago you thought you knew him, now you scarcely know him at all because he has become much greater, much vaster in your comprehension, in your understanding.

And so once again, in Ephesians chapter 3, he says, Wherefore, for this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. He says, I've got to pray about this. I've got to pray that God will grant you something.

And he's declaring something, but he says, we can't receive it. It's beyond our ability to comprehend. And I say, I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named.

God is a family, the whole family is a family of God, part of it's in earth and part of it's in heaven. And we're the whole family of God, and on the earth that one family might be considered as many families, but together in the purpose of God, we're one vast family.

Whether it be those who have gone on or those who are still on earth. And he says, I bow my knees unto the Father, because he's speaking to Father's children, and he wants the children of the Father to comprehend what he has to say, that he would grant you, that God would grant you.

It's not something you can just take it and, well, I got it, I memorized it, and I got it in tape, and I'm, you know, I'm glad I got these tapes because I forget some things, and so I'm glad I got it in tape.

Well, it's all right that you have it in tape so that you can play it over, but you could play it over a million times, and apart from the spirit of wisdom and revelation and the knowledge of him, you wouldn't hear, you wouldn't see, you wouldn't understand what God is saying.

So don't put as much emphasis on the tape or on the book or on the writing, but put the emphasis on that ability, that divine ability from God to be able to hear, to be able to comprehend, to be able to see with the ears of the Spirit and with the eyes of the Spirit.

And so Jesus said, as Brian mentioned yesterday, not take heed what you hear, but take heed how you hear. Because unless we have the capacity from God to hear as God would have us to hear, to hear in the Spirit, to understand what he is trying to say, we're not going to hear what the Spirit is saying to the churches, that he would grant you according to the riches of his glory to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man.

New Creation Life in the Spirit

Paul says, though the outward man perish, that the inner man is renewed day by day. And God is working on the inner man. God wants to bring forth that man from within, that new man, that new creation man.

God wants us to begin to walk in new creation life, and we hear some of the precious things in God's word and we stumble at it, we get frustrated at it, we turn away in frustration because we say, I can't, because we're thinking in the realm of that old creation mind.

But Paul tells us, as I quoted last night, that there's only one thing that is of any avail, and that's new creation life. And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, there's only one rule by which we can walk, and that's new creation life.

And so we constantly are condemning ourselves or condemning others because we see the old creation life and we recognize it's there. But God doesn't want us to dwell on those things. He wants us to put on the mind of Christ.

He wants us to put on the whole armor of God, the helmet of salvation, that with the helmet of salvation we'll think with a new mind, we'll have attitudes that spring from a new heart and a new mind, and we'll recognize the old is there, but as we put on the new creation life and walk according to the new creation life, we'll begin to enter into that glory of the new creation life.

And as many as walk according to this rule, there's a new rule for you and I to walk, and the new rule is the law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus. For what the law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh.

God condemned sin in the flesh in order that the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us who walk not after the flesh but after the spirit. And so the secret is there, and it's very simple, of people who will walk after the spirit.

You say, I know it's simple, but why don't we enter into it if it's simple? Because the old creation man, the old creation law, the old creation rules are constantly there seeking to thwart us from entering into new creation life.

And so we must begin to think new creation life, we must dwell on that. Paul says, whatsoever things are good, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are of good report, if there be any virtue, if there be any praise, think on these things.

I know it's not something that we can grasp and live hold of with a natural mind, but I believe that's why there's a ministration of the spirit that God has raised up, a ministration of the spirit that he's raising up in this day and hour, and that he's going to anoint more and more, that when they stand and minister, they'll minister words by the spirit, and the ministration of the words of the spirit of God will bring into being that which the word declares.

So it's not really difficult, it's just that we haven't given the spirit of God his right away in our lives or in our assemblies. It's simple enough, but we hear the wrong voices, we're tuned into the wrong things, we're tuned into the programs of men, we're listening to high intellectual preachers, and we're listening to those who've got it all laid out there with their study of the scriptures, greatly diluted with human philosophies and human psychologies, diluted and perverted and polluted with all these things.

A Pure Word From the Mouth of God

And God is going to cleanse his ministry, he's going to cleanse his church, that out from the midst of the body of Christ there will go forth that pure, clear, infallible word from the mouth of God. He's going to do it, not because those ministries are anything, but because the Lord is jealous for his people, because he rises up in this day now jealous for the people of God, that he might present unto himself this glorious church, and to present this glorious church unto himself there must go forth a pure, clear word from the mouth of God, a creative word that when that word goes forth it will bring into being in the hearts of God's people that which God desires.

So it's very simple, as simple as when God said, let there be light in his light, it's just that simple, because God spoke, it came into being, it's as simple as that. The problem is finding the vessel through whom God can speak, the problem is God finding that pure heart, that in that pure heart he might mould the very heart of God, and I say it's a problem, and I know it's a problem, but God has dealt with it.

He crucified the mind at the cross, where a crown of thorns was laid upon his brow. He crucified the works of man on the cross, because the hands of the Son of Man were known to the cross. He crucified the wayward works of man, because on the cross there was a man whose feet were pierced.

He crucified the corruptible heart of man, the wayward heart of man, because a soldier took a sword and thrust it into his heart. So he crucified the carnal flesh at the cross. God condemns sin in the flesh, that the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh but after the Spirit.

God did the work at the cross, and God does the work in your heart and mind when we give the Spirit of God his worship in our hearts and lives, and in our assemblies when we gather together, for what God did at the cross is now in the Spirit, for by the eternal Spirit it was that Jesus offered himself without blemish unto God.

He offered himself without blemish unto God by the eternal Spirit, so that the Spirit there at the cross of Christ was absorbing into his holy being all the efficacy of the work of the cross and of the blood of Christ, absorbing it into his own being, and then coming to abide in his temple, that the efficacy of the blood and the work that God accomplished at the cross might be manifested in and throughout the body of Christ because of the presence of his Spirit, because in the Spirit there is also the blood and the water, the three precious witnesses that God has given us, the blood and the water and the Spirit in the three one.

Throughout the world, the cleansing of the world, we believe in the blood of the cross, the blood of our redemption when Jesus died on the cross, we believe all that, and it's all so historical, but it is the Spirit that bears the witness, it's the Spirit that brings forth the truth concerning it, it's the Spirit that brings forth the efficacy of it, and because we give not the Spirit of God his right of name, his lordship, and his myths, we don't partake of the efficacy of the blood and the working of the cross in our lives.

The Lordship of the Spirit in the Church

The day and hour when the Lord Jesus Christ is rising up in the midst of this church, and he said, too long have you used my Spirit, too long have you prayed with my gifts, too long have you been praying church, my Spirit comes forth in the congregations of the saints in this day and hour to exercise his lordship in the body of Christ, and that congregation, that group of people that gathers together and refuses to give the lordship of the Spirit his rightful place, is going to have, as has been witnessed over and over again, that congregation of people, that church, is going to have Ichabod written over them, the doors.

The Lord Jesus Christ reigns supreme in the universe, and he's been King of kings and lord of lords these two thousand years, he's not coming back to be King of kings, he's that now, and he's reigning from the throne to continue and to perfect the work which he has started in the body of Christ and to bring it to a glorious conclusion, and now because we have come to the end time, the Lord Jesus Christ, the King of kings and the Lord of lords, says, my Spirit whom I have sent into the earth in my stead and in my place, he has my word to declare to my church, and I'm going to close every mouth that does not submit to the lordship of the Spirit of God in the midst of his people.

We thank the Lord for every work that he is doing in the church, every ministration that goes forth, every manifestation of the gifts of the Spirit, and we're witnessing in this day and hour a new wave of gifts of the Spirit.

We hear of places where much healing is taking place. We thank the Lord for all that he's doing. My brother said not to get our eyes away in any of these things that are happening, and it is right. We thank the Lord wherever he is working, for whatever he is doing, but until God's people come to the place where the utmost desire of their heart is the utmost desire of God's heart, we're not going to come to that fullness that God desires in his people, and God wants to bring his people unto a fullness, unto a completion, unto a consummation, unto the finishing of the work which he had begun.

Christ as Alpha and Omega

That's why the Lord Jesus Christ rises up, and we see him there in the book of Revelation, declaring himself to be not only the Alpha, but the Omega. He's not only the beginning, he's the ending. He's not only the one who begins, he's the one who brings to a conclusion.

He's not only the one who is the seed that was planted into the ground and sprang up as the blade, he's the one who comes forth in his people in the time of harvest as the full corn in the year. If he's the Alpha, he's the Omega.

If he's the beginning, he's the end. If he starts something, he's going to finish it. And he who has begun that good work in his people will complete it, he'll bring it to a conclusion. He's not going to cut his shirt along the way, because his people refuse to go on.

He will bring forth the people that will go on. If the people who he has nourished and cherished and enriched with spiritual gifts and blessings and bestowed upon them all manner of spiritual blessing, if they refuse to go on, God says, I'm not going to cut, I'm not going to delay the work which I have begun on the earth, I'm still going to bring it to a conclusion.

If you can't find those who will come to the wedding feast, to come into that place of intimate union and relationship with me, I'm not going to stop the wedding proceedings just because you're not ready for it.

You've got the invitation. Invitation goes forth to all of God's people everywhere. Lay aside all your doctrines, all your programs, all your ideas, all your psychology, all those things that you've mixed up with the pure gospel of Jesus Christ, lay it all aside, count it as refuge, count it as done, lay it on the ash heap, and win Christ, or continue with those things and be left where you are.

And God says, I'm still going to do what I've declared. I'll go to the Indian people who've been rejected. I'll go to the colored races that have been rejected. I'll go to third world countries that have been rejected, and through them I'll do the work that I declared I'm going to do in the body of Christ.

And they will hear it because they're ready for it. God's not going to delay the work which he has promised and which he has planned. And when the religious world said, I don't want it, I don't want that far out stuff.

We're too busy. We're working for God. We've got too much to do to be involved with a lot of those so-called in-time truths. I'm too busy. The master was angry. He says, go out into the lanes and the byways.

Find anybody you can, anybody at all, good or bad. He emphasizes good or bad and bring them in that my house might be filled. We're going to witness the coming in of the dejected, the oppressed, the downtrodden, the harlots, the prostitutes, the scum of the earth.

They're going to come in and they're going to be glorious, glorious arrayed with the garments, the wedding garments of Christ. But many religious people are going to be left aside. We're not to be sidetracked or come short of the fullness because we see God doing something wonderful out there.

The Fullness of Divine Love

I know he's doing wonderful things and we thank him for that. But the most wonderful thing of all is the thing upon which we have set our eyes, and that is coming unto the Christ and abiding in total union with him, finding our habitation in God as God would find his habitation in us, coming into perfect love, coming into the fullness of the love of God.

Everybody agrees with that. And so they say, you know, why bother with all those so-called deeper truths? All we need is love. I know that's all we need. But we say a thing like that, you know, with a sort of a dropping voice, we just need love, as if love is some little thing you can just go and pick up and grab and use anytime you want.

Love is God. Love is a mention you can't comprehend, and that's what we need. I know you've got a little cup of it, just because you go down to the Pacific Ocean with your little cup and take a glass of water and you say, I've got some of the ocean in my cup.

It might be true, but you don't have the Pacific Ocean in your cup. God wants us to come into the fullness of it, because only in the fullness of it are we going to satisfy the heart of God, and only in the fullness of it are we going to be that people in the earth who will be the expression of God to the earth.

So we begin in love and we grow in love, and love is all that matters, and love is all that counts, but we want to grow into it until we come to the fullness of it. You and I know very well that though we talk about love and sing choruses about love, and in a big meeting where there's a lot of human activity, a lot of human entertainment, love is emphasized so much in all the songs that come forth.

Love is emphasized. We know that, but you know that love is lacking, and love will continue to be lacking. I don't care how much you talk about it. It'll continue to be absent from the body of Christ until the body of Christ goes God's way and comes to know God, because God is love.

Enough just to say, forget all those doctors and let's just love. Forget the doctors, yes, but you've got to come to know God if you're going to have love. Jesus said, Jesus ministered here in the earth three, three and a half years to reveal the Father to his disciples that they might have love.

It wasn't just something he'd come down and say, now your disciples just go and love one another goodbye. He ministered with them three, three and a half years in order that the love that was in him might be imparted to them, and he says, I've declared unto them thy name, Father, and I will declare it that the love wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them.

And so it takes a declaration from the mouth of God. It takes teaching. It takes the unfolding of truth. It takes the sending forth of truth by the Spirit of God into the hearts of his people. It takes a revelation of the character of God and the will of God and the desire of God for his people and planted in their hearts.

It takes all that to produce that love in God's people. You say, forget all those things, let's have love. You've got to have that in order for the love of God to be revealed in his people. Jesus said, I declare unto them thy name.

Never once did he go and say, my Father's name is Jehovah. He declared unto them the Father in what he was and what he said and what he did. In all of his works and in all of his teachings, he was doing nothing more nor less than unfolding the heart of God to his people.

And so it shall be in the Bible of Christ when that minister rises up in union with the Son of God because of the Spirit. They too, as they minister, as they speak, as they speak out from the heart of God, they will be revealing and expressing the Son in the earth.

And the church of Jesus Christ is ordained to be the fullness of the Son in the earth just as the Son was the fullness of the Father in the earth. So as Jesus revealed the fullness of the Father by walking in union with the Father, by speaking the words of the Father, by doing the works of the Father, by declaring nothing out from himself but declaring the truth of God out from the mouth of the Father, so he revealed the name of the Father to his own.

And so he said, I declare thy name unto my brethren. I declare thy name that the love wherewith you have loved me may be in them. Because Jesus was able because of his ministry, because of his teachings, because of his life, because of what he was, because he was the expression of the Father in the earth.

He wasn't God the Son distinct from God the Father. He was the Son of God, the express image of the Father, the expression of God the Father in the earth. Jesus Christ was the expression of God the Father in the earth, the express image of him, the declaration of God in the earth.

He revealed the heart of God. He revealed the heart of the Father. He revealed his love. He revealed his truth. He revealed his mercy. He revealed his judgment against sin. He revealed his hatred for sin and his love for righteousness.

He declared the name of the Father that the very heart of the Father might be imprinted upon the hearts of his disciples in order that the love wherewith the Father loved the Son might be implanted into the hearts of his disciples.

The Church as the Expression of Christ

So it's not just a case of getting together and having a big happy time and clapping one another in the back and say let's love one another. It's a case of coming to know God through the ministry of the Spirit, through the ministry of the Word, through a people when he's raising up who will express in the earth the Son because the Son expresses the Father.

And so the church of the living God is said to be the fullness of him who is the head, the fullness of him that filleth all and in all. The express image of the Son, the expression of the Son in the earth as the Son now ministers no longer walking the earth in one man but glorified at God's right hand as King of kings and Lord of lords because he's the exalted King.

He sent forth his Spirit into the earth. I wish the church could understand that. They're always talking about the King coming back to set up a kingdom. He set it up in the heavens because he set it up in the heavens.

He poured forth the Holy Spirit into the earth that the Holy Spirit might come into the earth and be the King, the exalted King. He sent forth his Spirit into the earth. I wish the church could understand that.

They're always talking about the King coming back to set up a kingdom. He set it up in the heavens because he set it up in the heavens. He poured forth the Holy Spirit into the earth that the Holy Spirit might come into the earth and be the King in the earth because he abides in the temple in the earth.

The exalted Kings in the heaven and the Holy Spirit is the vicar of Jesus on earth, the vicar of Christ on earth. It's not the Pope. It's a blasphemous prayer for any man to take. Jesus has sent forth his Spirit to abide in the temple in the earth, the vicar of Christ on earth because he's exalted at God's right hand.

Peter says he sent forth Christ which is still in the earth because he's exalted as King. You want him to come back to be King? Yes, we all do. But he's exalted as King now and the kingdom's been in the last 2 ,000 years.

The kingdom of God is 2 ,000 years old. I'm not speaking parable. It's true. The kingdom of God doesn't splash down on earth from heaven. It grows out of the earth. You read the parables. Jesus couldn't declare it for the disciples until the multitude sent it forth in parables.

Don't look about you and don't see some great thing happening out there. Say, no, there's the kingdom of God beginning to start. It doesn't come that way. He says it comes from a grain that's planted in the earth and springs out of the earth the blade and then the ear and after that the full corn in the ear.

We're talking about completion. We're talking about the full corn that's coming but the kingdom's been growing these 2 ,000 years. Next is the full corn but the kingdom's in the earth in the hearts of men and there's so many who are not interested in the full corn.

They call it far out teaching, far out doctrine. Forget about this stuff of coming into the fullness of Christ. The purpose for which Jesus died. It's got to happen because the son who died is now living as king of God's right hand.

He's looking for the day of harvest. He's been waiting and waiting for the day of harvest. Blessing his heritage with rain and sunshine from heaven. We receive the rain and the sunshine from heaven. We say thank you Lord.

This is the last move. Come any time Lord. This is the last move. We've got the rain now. It's the last move of God. The rain must dry up and it's the heat that brings forth the full corn in the ear. It's the heat.

It's the dry weather that brings forth the full corn in the ear. You feel so dry and withered. You feel you're nothing. It's because God is seeking to bring to nothing the laws of the old life that have been functioning within you.

That the new law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus might begin to form the full corn in the ear. The likeness of the Lord Jesus Christ himself reproduced not in a single corn of wheat but reproduced a hundred fold in the body of Christ.

Hearing the Heart of God

Love is all we need. Love is the divine ultimate and that full corn in the ear is the perfection of love in God's people. But it only comes forth as this people hear from the heart of God. As God's heart is made bare to them.

As truth comes forth from the heart of God. As divine nature flows forth from the heart of God. As the word of the father comes forth through the son through the spirit of this people. I have declared unto them thy name, thy nature, thy character, thy majesty, thy glory, the beauty of your being.

I've made it known to Jesus because I've been here three and a half years and I've been the expression of the father. I've declared unto thy name and then he says I will make it known because he's going to heaven and once again he would make it known.

As true as he made it known when he walked this earth he would make it known again from the exalted throne in the heavens. Because having been exalted at God's right hand he shed forth this good pity which you now see on here.

And in sending forth that which you now see here he raised up apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, teachers and a body of Christ on the earth filled with the spirit and anointed in the spirit that they might be the expression now in the earth of the son who is exalted.

We had a limited exhibition of it. Expression of it in the early church and it was glorious. But it was the first fruits. Pentecost is a harvest of first fruits and now we come to the day of the fullness of the harvest.

So God wants a people who will hear and know that the reason they're frustrated and the reason they're drying up and the reason they feel discouraged is because the old law is beginning to die and it dies hard and it wants to retain some of its authority.

But in the midst of it all we hear the rule of new creation life. And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them. There's a new law on earth. It's the law of new creation life. Because of the law of new creation life we've seen the spreading of the seed, we've seen the blood, we've seen the ear and now we're coming to the full corn in the ear.

The day of completion, the day of harvest, the day of fullness, the reason for which Jesus died, the purpose for which God sent him to the earth, the purpose for which he was exalted with God's right hand.

It's now here, it's at the door. God is getting a people of ears to hear that hearing the right way, not just hearing the right words, not just getting the tape and playing it over and over and over again.

You could do that when you memorize it, but if your heart is not open, if your ears are not attuned to what the spirit is saying, your heart will not be prepared to come into the thing that God has in mind or that God would grant you according to the richness of his glory, that you might be strengthened with might by his spirit in the inner man, that Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith, that you being rooted and grounded in love.

We're rooted in love, we grow up in love, we come into the full statue of love, but don't stop and say I got love and so that's all and forget these fellow things you don't have much, you've just got a cup of it.

There's vast oceans of it out there that you know nothing about and with your little cup of love and my little cup of love we have not met the needs of humanity. The needs of the world are just as severe, they're far greater now than they ever were in the history of mankind.

You boast that you've got love, you've just got a little cup. That little cup is sufficient if you give it to the master. As long as you go tooting it around saying I don't need any more because I've got a cup of it, you'll never come to know the vastness of the oceans of God's eternal love.

We're rooted and grounded in love. Faith is the first principle of love. Faith that doesn't work in love is no good. Faith works in love. We're rooted in love. We were saved because of his divine love but we mustn't stop at the little cup.

But being rooted and grounded in love, God wants us to be able to comprehend and it's greater than that, it's apprehend. It's not just talking about somehow being rooted and grounded in love, we might understand something, but that being rooted and grounded in love we might be able to lay hold, apprehend.

If I could have attained to this myself just by seeking God earnestly and fasting and praying and reading the scriptures and studying and memorizing the word, I would have done it because I'm sort of a hermit at heart.

I'd just like to have found this by myself and that's why I think God would not let me, has never allowed me to have a ministry just for the sake of ministry sake. If there isn't a people who are able to hear this kind of a message, I don't have anointing to go minister to them.

Why haven't I been out ministering? You should be out ministering, George, you know, heard that the last 40 years. The church needs this word, don't you know George, the church needs this word? I know the church needs this word, but if they don't know they need it, I haven't got ability to give it.

The Laodicean church needs this word but they don't know they need it. God grant that this famine which is coming upon the land will spill over to the church of Jesus Christ because I know that only the famine of the hearing of the words of the Lord is going to cause them to go down to Egypt to find a Joseph that has bread to sustain them in the time of famine.

Discerning the True Word From Counterfeits

The word is, the famine of the word is coming and it's so close to us and people aren't able to discern the bread of God from the bread of devils. They're just not able to discern it and something comes up and they say that's the same as your teaching.

Sounds something the same. I got a letter the other day, did you have any connection with the new age moment? They're talking about three festive occasions, three annual festive occasions. I don't think you do, she says.

You see, I don't know, I don't hardly know anything about the new moment. What I've heard, I just know it's full of the philosophies and psychologies of men, totally false. But if it's totally false, it's going to be so close to reality that people who don't have ears to hear and eyes to see, they're going to look and say, well yeah, that sounds like what they're saying over there.

Yeah, three feasts, oh yeah, they got three feasts over there. But you see, you're not going to stay true to God or be able to discern the true from the false by reading up on all the cults that exist and studying them.

You see, try and discern what's, you know, this is wrong and so now I'll know what's right. No, you got to know what's right in order to know what's wrong. The bank manager said to his teller who came to him, knew in the job, can you show me some $20 bills that I, some counterfeit ones, you have any?

I could study them a little. No, he says, we don't do that. Study the real ones and then you'll be able to understand the false. Because the false has got the queen's picture and the signatures of the governor general or whatever and the dates and all the little markings, it's got all that, but it's totally false.

Put into these false things and dig out a little because you say, well, this is, yeah, this, I know this is right and this is right and this is right. It's totally false. If it doesn't proceed from the mouth of God, totally false.

Satan's best masterpiece of a counterfeit is to bring forth something that will be just so much like the real, that people who do not have discerning eyes and ears will fall into the trap. God wants the people who become so totally occupied with Christ and our gatherings under him such that we're so totally occupied with him, that if a false prophet comes in and stands up and ministers, we're not all upset about it.

We just know that's the voice of the enemy. That's not the voice of the good shepherd. That being rooted and grounded in love, we might be able to comprehend, to apprehend, to lay hold upon with all saints.
