Testimonies And Confirmations

By

Apostle John De Beloved

John's Witness For The True Light

There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. This man came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all through him might believe. He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light. That was the true Light which gives light to every man coming into the world. The Light is Jesus Christ, the Lord and Saviour of humanity.

Jesus Christ was in the world, as an Israelite, and the world was made through Him, and the world did not know Him. He came to His own, and His own did not receive Him. But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name: who were born, not of blood, nor of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

The Word Incarnate And Manifest

And the Word took possession of the flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten FirstSon of God the Father, full of grace and truth.

John bore witness of Him and cried out, saying, "This was He of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me is greater than me, and He was before me.'"

And of His fullness we have all received, and grace for grace. For the law was given through Moses, repeated by the prophets, but the confirmation of the law, with grace and truth, came through Jesus Christ.

Many have seen God the Father in the past and present times. The Hosts of Angels and Saints of heaven behold His glory as God Almighty, Yahweh, the Lord of the Hosts. That was why Archangel Gabriel said, “I stand in the presence of God”. Many, including Holy Moses and Holy Enoch, have declared the truth about God and life. The same God Almighty came to the world in the person of Jesus Christ.

Grace And Truth Came By Jesus

True teachings about God and life was given to humanity by Jesus.

Grace refers to mercy of God, by the death of Jesus Christ, and by which death Jesus saved humanity from eternal condemnation. Grace, because Jesus is the Lord and Saviour, who perfects all those who keep the laws, who obey God and do His will. Also, grace refers to the talents and powers of the Holy Spirit given to the children of God, through repentance, baptism, anointing, guidance, etc, to enable the children of God run the race of life, just as was done on the Pentecost Day. You are expected to use your talents and possessions in serving God and humanity, in the righteousness and holiness of God.

Truth, because Jesus Christ came teaching the world the truth about God and life.

A Voice In The Wilderness

And this is the testimony of St John De Baptist, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, “Who are you?”

He confessed, he did not deny, but confessed, “I am not the Christ.”

And they asked him, “What then? Are you Eli′jah?”

He said, “I am not.” (Many people do not know about their previous lifetimes. St John De Baptist was Elijah, because among all the men of God, it was only St John De Baptist that did what Elijah was prophesied to do, which was to identify Jesus, baptize Him and introduce Him to the world of humanity.)

“Are you the prophet?”

And he answered, “No.”

They said to him then, “Who are you? Let us have an answer for those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?”

He said, “I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, ‘Make straight the way of the Lord,’ as the prophet Isaiah said.”

Now they had been sent from the Pharisees. They asked him, “Then why are you baptizing, if you are neither the Christ, nor Eli′jah, nor the prophet?”

John answered them, “I baptize with water; but among you stands one whom you do not know, even He who comes after me, the thong of whose sandal I am not worthy to untie.” This took place in Bethany beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.

What St John De Baptist said above is true, because one day, transfiguration of the man who saw God face to face took place. Then, He was wearing a very heavy and powerful booth, the power of which booth can destroy the whole world.

The Lamb Of God

The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, “Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world! This is He of whom I said, ‘After me comes a man who ranks before me, for He was before me.’ I myself did not know Him; but for this I came baptizing with water, that He might be revealed to Israel.” And John bore witness, “I saw the Spirit descend as a dove from heaven, and it remained on Him. I myself did not know Him; but He who sent me to baptize with water said to me, ‘He on whom you see the Spirit descend and remain, this is He who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.’ And I have seen and have borne witness that this is the Son of God.” John 2:29-34

Let me ask you a question. He read that John said, “Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!”

Is this the first or second time that John was saying this? First recognition of Jesus Christ by John was at the baptism. This supposed to be the second recognition.

Son of man, people do not understand what is written here. When John was saying that he did not know the Messiah, John was not saying that he did not know Jesus. He knew Jesus, because they grew up together. Also he knew Jesus, even when he was still in the womb. That was why John rejoiced inside Elizabeth, when Mary visited Elizabeth.

What John was saying here was how he came to know, how he was able to identify the Messiah. He was making known the sign which God the Father gave him, by which sign he was able to recognize the Lord and Saviour. This encounter was not the first time John was meeting the FirstSon, Jesus Christ. Instead, God the Father was testifying and confirming by signs that Jesus Christ is the Lord and Saviour, doing so before the multitudes, through John De Baptist.

Do you understand this? Yes, my Lord.

John was prophesying, narrating by prophecy, what God the Father had told him.

Testimony And Confirmation By John The Baptist

After this Jesus and his disciples went into the land of Judea; there he remained with them and baptized. John also was baptizing at Ae′non near Salim, because there was much water there; and people came and were baptized. For John had not yet been put in prison.

Now a discussion arose between John’s disciples and a Jew over purifying. And they came to John, and said to him, “Rabbi, He who was with you beyond the Jordan, to whom you bore witness, here He is, baptizing, and all are going to Him.” John answered, “No one can receive anything except what is given him from heaven. You yourselves bear me witness that I said, I am not the Christ, but I have been sent before him. He who has the bride is the bridegroom; the friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly at the bridegroom’s voice; therefore this joy of mine is now full. He must increase, but I must decrease.” John 3:22-30

The One Who Comes From Heaven

He, Jesus Christ, who comes from above is above all; he who is of the earth belongs to the earth, and of the earth he speaks; He who comes from heaven is above all. He bears witness to what He has seen and heard, by teaching the truth about God and life, yet no one receives His testimony; he who receives his testimony (any true prophet or vissioner) sets his seal to this (confirms this), that God is true (and that what God said is true). For He whom God has sent utters the words of God, for it is not by measure that He gives the Spirit; the Father loves the FirstSon, and has given all things into His hand. He who believes in the FirstSon has eternal life. But, he who does not obey the FirstSon shall not see life, but the wrath of God rests upon him. John 3:31-36

Explanations:

1. In the above context, Jesus is the one who comes from heaven and Himself is above all.

2. However, it is not only Jesus that comes from above, for the Angels of God are also from above and they are highly exalted.

3. Jesus speaks the true word of God because He came from heaven, has visited heaven and is full of the Holy Spirit, even so without measure.

4. The Father loves the Son, and has given all things into His hand, as all power and authority in heaven and on earth are in the hands of Jesus Christ.

Your Duty Is To Lead People To Jesus Christ

Then there arose a dispute between some of John's disciples and the Jews about purification. And they came to John and said to him, "Rabbi, He who was with you beyond the Jordan, to whom you have testified — behold, He is baptizing, and all are coming to Him!"

John answered and said, “A man can receive nothing unless it has been given to him from heaven. You yourselves bear me witness, that I said, ‘I am not the Christ,' but, ‘I have been sent before Him.' He who has the bride is the bridegroom; but the friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly because of the bridegroom's voice. Therefore this joy of mine is fulfilled. He must increase, but I must decrease. John 3:25-30

Explanations:

1. By saying all these things, John bore a true and perfect witness that Jesus is the Lord and Saviour of all.

2. All the present day ministers of God, both male and female, have refused to emulate John. They are neither going to the DivineBase, the city of the Rising Sun, to welcome God nor are they directing their members to do so.

3. Each of the religious leaders is busy expanding his personal church business, whereas they were called to work in the vineyard of God, which is the Everlasting Covenant.

All Power And Authority

“He must increase, but I must decrease.” John 3:30

All powers of the Holy Spirit and the authority of God are in the hands of Jesus Christ.

Make sure that whatever you are doing is approved by the FirstSon of God.

Elijah Reincarnated As John The Baptist

The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. As it is written in the Prophets:

"Behold, I send My messenger before Your face,

Who will prepare Your way before You."

'The voice of one crying in the wilderness:

'Prepare the way of the Lord;

Make His paths straight.'" Mark 1:1-3

Explanations:

1. A confirmation that Elijah reincarnated as John the Baptist, because only John did what Elijah was expected to do, which was to herald, to announce, the coming of the Messiah, who would soon after follow him.

2. The bible said that immediately after the messenger shall come the Messiah. The same bible made it clear that Elijah is the Messiah.

3. And the only person who fulfilled the prophecy was John the Baptist, because Jesus came immediately after John the Baptist. Only six months in age difference between Jesus and John the Baptist.

Why You Should Ask Questions

4. Mark 1:1 says, “The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. As it is written in the Prophets:”

This is not the beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, because by this time, Jesus has toured the world on evangelism. He visited some many places, including Persia, China, India, Greek, Egypt, Tibet, etc.

5. This is one of the so many lies and fabrications in the bible.

6. This point shows you the reason why you should develop the habit of quiet time and meditation, so that you will be able to inquire from God, and know whether what you are reading or hearing is true or not. That was why Jesus said, “You must be as wise a serpent and as innocent as dove.”

7. Do not be the type of person that accepts whatever he hears without making necessary investigations.

Apostle Matthew: What was said about him?

The Head: About his works?

Apostle Matthew: Yes.

The Head: It was said that,

The voice of one crying in the wilderness:

"Prepare the way of the Lord;

Make straight in the desert

A highway for our God.

Every valley shall be exalted

And every mountain and hill brought low;

The crooked places shall be made straight

And the rough places smooth;

The glory of the Lord shall be revealed,

And all flesh shall see it together;

For the mouth of the Lord has spoken."

Isaiah 40:3-5

Apostle Matthew: What was said about John himself?

The Head: He was a nazarite. He came from the wilderness. He baptized with water.

Apostle Matthew: Doing what?

The Head: The bible authors did not state what St John De Baptist was doing in the wilderness. Another book, The Aquaria Gospel Of Jesus Christ, stated that John attended a Spiritual Science school, where has brought up and trained in the work of baptism with water. At the due time, he was made to understand that the time for him to start work had come.

In order to announce the coming of the saviour, John had to stand in the public, in the market place, for seven days, in silence. During the seven days, people were seeing him and wondering. After the seven days, he started to speak to the public, announcing the coming of the Messiah.

Apostle Matthew: What was written in the book is correct. Son of man, many of the people that saw St John De Baptist, he was like a mad man. The public were seeing him like a poor man without any help, who has no means of livelihood.

Apostle Matthew: What did Jesus said about him?

The Head: Number 1, Jesus made it known that St John De Baptist was the expected Elijah.

Number 2, Jesus said that among all humanity, there is none greater than St John De Baptist.

Apostle Matthew: That is number 2.

The Head: Number 3, Jesus said that the smallest spirit, angel, in heaven is greater than St John De Baptist.

Apostle Matthew: Son of man, number 1, people saw him and said that he was like a mad person, a poor man. At that time, John had not grown in knowledge and wisdom. Only the people who had the Holy Spirit, knew that John was doing God’s work. And they knew that John was using the power of the Holy Spirit.

Apostle Matthew: What did Jesus say about the about St John De Baptist?

Jesus said, the poorest here on earth are the richest in heaven. Jesus was speaking about St John De Baptist. He said that St John De Baptist came to this world as a slave. John was rough in his appearance and indecent and dressings. That was why he was regarded as a slave. But himself, John, who was a slave here on earth, is a king in heaven.

Apostle Matthew: Son of man, what does that show?

The Head: It shows the world that all things in the world, including money and wealth, are good. But, they are not more important than the souls of humanity, and they are not more important than salvation. Both the rich and the poor have to strive to live and study Spiritual Science, for them to grow in spirit, and for them to inherit the kingdom of heaven.

Apostle Matthew: Son of man, Jesus said that the children of the world, humanity, judge by what they see with their eyes.

But what of the spiritual dimension?

The Israelites saw St John De Baptist, as he was, with their physical eyes,

The Head: Yes.

Apostle Matthew: What of the spiritual eyes?

Why did people not see St John De Baptist with their spiritual eye?

How humanity judge, a person who is strong is considered a great man. If the person has money and wealth, and is famous, he is regarded as a strong and mighty man. But, the way Angels of heaven judge is the person who humbles himself. The person in whom there is the power of the Holy Spirit, and he uses the power of the Holy Spirit to work for God. He does all the works with his heart, with purity of heart and with joyfulness and gladness of heart. It is this person that is a great man.

None Is Greater Than John De Baptist

St John De Baptist is also known as John De Light of Holy Spirit. He is the light that comes from the Holy Spirit.

That is why the children of God call and answer him, “Lord.”

The One Who Comes From Above Is Above All

John the Baptist appeared in the wilderness, preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. And there went out to him all the country of Judea, and all the people of Jerusalem; and they were baptized by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins. Now John was clothed with camel’s hair, and had a leather girdle around his waist, and ate locusts and wild honey. And he preached, saying, “After me comes he who is mightier than I, the thong of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and untie. I have baptized you with water; but he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.” Mark 1:4-8

Explanations

Consider all the powers in the world, the sun, the moon and stars. Also, consider the weight of the ground, the water, the clouds, the teeming world populations of humanity, the animals and plants. Then, multiply the exceeding weight by the uncountable worlds, planets, suns, satellite moons, stars and the immense heavens in existence to have an idea of the power and authority of Jesus Christ. If you were to put one percent (1%) of all these power and authority into the body of one person, you will discover that nobody is able to bear such tremendous power and authority. This is what St John De Baptist was explaining to humanity. And what he said is true.
