I have been starting to follow some prophetic-apostolic ministers. This message is a brief introduction to my understanding of why it is essential to seek prophetic insight.

Church history & Scripture show that we need to recognize the times in which we live.

New structures are constantly replacing older systems.

The Gospel message is the same but all of us should be ready for what is ahead. The networks that our Special Forces utilize are a better model for the Body of Christ than the institution most of us visualize...

...institution most of us visualize when we think of a church is not the Ecclesia. The Greek word “Ecclesia,” translated as church, means the Called Out Assembly of Believers who align around the Love of God found in Jesus Christ’s atonement for sin on the Cross.

Small home groups, prayer teams and networks of Believers who may attend different churches are becoming more significant. This is because the old structures cannot meet the need to have critical information about what the Holy Spirit is doing in real time.

Social media is a tool that enables a certain amount of such networking. Just like the Gutenberg printing press empowered the Reformers by making Bibles & other books available in the 1500s, you and I can access teaching, current events & those with authority directly.

Thus, we can be free from the corporate media structures that have controlled our institutions, including our churches, for generations.

The forces of Anti-Christ are using fake news, deception & political-religious structures to deceive the nations.

Ecclesia bodies are also governmental in nature but operate on a totally different dynamic than the Kingdoms of This World.

All governments are rooted in authority & power. The power that undergirds the Kingdom of Heaven is the power of love. Not the kind of love lacking force.

The Sovereign Creator of the Universe is not lacking in force. He operates by law, justice & mercy. These qualities sometimes seem to conflict with His love. But He constitutes covenants, legal systems & other forms of governmental Order because of His love.

Christ sacrificing his life on the Cross itself was a juridicial act.

Juridicial differs from judicial. The adjective juridicial (also spelled juridical) means “relating to the administration of the law.”

On the other hand, the adjective judicial means “relating to courts of law or judges.”

The point is that if God does not operate by Law, there was no need to demonstrate His Love by suffering His Son to be subjected to violence. Christ’s death in the Cross changed everything.

But God’s character & His covenants with Abraham & others were not abolished. A new synergy came into existence. The conventional concept is to call it a new Dispensation. The Kingdom of Heaven dispensation started with the ministry of John the Baptist.

But in the Book of Acts, we already see the Kingdom advancing more forcefully with Gentiles pressing violently into the Kingdom.

The networks referenced above are not just person to person. There are whole nations being discipled.

The Great Commission includes making disciples of nations. Lance Wallnau points out how Brazil, Poland, the U.S. & Hungary are all aligning with Israel over national sovereignty, standing for religious freedom & Gospel governmental values...

...which includes Constitutional-Covenant principles & Rule of Law.

I would also include the Philippines in this list and there are others. We aren’t saying any of these nations are perfect. The issue is remaining free of global Anti-Christ deception.

There are goat nations & sheep nations.

Britain is moving in the right direction with leadership committed to British sovereignty. A nation cannot protect any freedoms without a free & sovereign governmental system.

All of this explains why we desperately need Apostolic authority & networks devoted to Biblical Prophecy in our time to energize networks of Believers that operate invisibly like cell groups. The old structures still have their place.

But your 501 (C)(3) churches can not possibly speak accurately to what is happening in the U.S. government and the world.

And make no mistake about it. The Ecclesia is “political” and it is about taking Dominion under Constitutional checks & balances.

We don’t practice politics like the world does and we are not deceived by Republican vs Democrat.

That is why Trump was reviled as much by Republican leaders as by Democrats.

But Trump is not our Messiah. He simply represents U.S. sovereignty!

If America comes under the Globalist plans (and we were almost there) we will soon be like a Middle Eastern nation, Syria perhaps is an example. Chaos, terrorism, suppression of freedom & religious hatred would tear us apart.

.@LanceWallnau makes it clear in the video we posted on Twitter & Facebook today. Protecting our U.S. Borders is about love, NOT hate. As a sovereign nation, America represents the hope of freedom to the rest of the world.

.@lancewallnau I am trying to post a thread with @threadreaderapp unroll that explains why your latest Periscope message is so perspicuous! I also noticed @chuckdpierce is suddenly energized on Twitter after a fallow time. I initially thought you were a political operative- LOL

@threadreaderapp unroll Hope this works. It’s a long thread of apostolic teaching about prophecy. Disclaimer: I am neither a #Prophet nor an #Apostle. Just in case you are wondering. I am still just an advocate for more firepower- in the Spirit, of course #apostoliccollaborators
