called out
1 Peter2.9 chosen generation,(we are a different genus-eration)
called out from the general congregation to separate yourself unto purpose.... But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God’s own possession,
2 Tim 20 -21`Now in a large house there are not only gold and silver vessels, but also vessels of wood and of earthenware, and some to honor and some to dishonor. 21 Therefore, if anyone cleanses himself from these things, he will be a vessel for honor, sanctified, useful to the Master, prepared for every good work.
v.19 Nevertheless, the firm foundation of God stands, having this seal, “The Lord knows those who are His,” and, “Everyone who names the name of the Lord is to abstain from wickedness.”
Revelation 18:4
4 And I heard another voice from heaven saying, “Come out of her, my people, lest you share in her sins, and lest you receive of her plagues.
The Called out / Sojourning SAGA
called out and banishment sometimes look the same
hebrews 13 :We have an altar from which those who serve the [c]tabernacle have no right to eat. 11 For the bodies of those animals whose blood is brought into the holy place by the high priest as an offering for sin, are burned outside the camp. 12 Therefore Jesus also, that He might sanctify the people through His own blood, suffered outside the gate. 13 So, let us go out to Him outside the camp, bearing His reproach. 14 For here we do not have a lasting city, but we are seeking the city which is to come.
Adam and Eve....."called out/banished" but as Norman Grubb reveals so clearly in "Yes I Am"....the curses were the "fastest" way to get back on inner track.....feeling the outer pinches drives us to inner answers...
So what looks like bad news....is actually good news because our innards begin to be reattached to the outer world again!!!!!
Noah...called out to build a boat and preach righteousness
GET this...100 year boat building session of three stories/floors /levels out in a desert where there are NO SEAS yet, and Rain hasnt happened yet, only DEW watering the earth!!!
Babel...called out/banished....into little sovereign groups separated by language....UNTIL Ephesians 1.11 ...an administration suitable to the summing up of the ages
Why? BIG GROUPS HAVE THEIR OWN MOMENTUM THAT CAN SUCK THEM OFF TRACK.
Terah, Abraham's Dad, calls his family out...
so they can have enough peace and quiet to really hear
And Abraham gets the Big Calling out
But he's called IN
Pays a deposit !!!! on the Land...
But then he's called OUT of where he was called IN
And he sojourns
Jacob's son Joseph is "called out/ banished" by his brothers, left in a hole to die, then rescued but sold as a slave into Egypt.
His brethren "receive the call" to go where the food is. Egypt.
Joseph and his brothers reunite.
Moses is "called out " as a baby to survive, when all his peers are killed.....he is "found" by the daughter of Pharoah himself...
His temper leads to murder and he flees....experiences banishment.....
40 years later he comes back to CALL Israel out of Egypt.
40 years later the Israelites are "called in finally to their LAND.
Then they are "called out"....to suffer in Babylon for refusing to walk with God enough to maintain their position as a nation under the One God.
Some return to the land.....
Jesus comes to such a people to "call them out" of their current believing, into a more accurate believing, which lays waste of the original Genesis 3 problem.
his people don't hear.....putting Him out of His hometown
being really unfriendly in synagogues and finally
putting Him out of Jerusalem as refuse, to die in Golgotha, the town dump area.
In Acts 2 Jesus by the Holy Spirit calls out a people away from the old sacrificial system into a New Covenant.
The Jerusalem Jews who refuse the gospel think that they are the IN People....but the real IN People are the OUT people,
and they are soon kicked further out all over Judea and further.
The OUT people ostensibly become the IN people as Rome recognises its own demise, and hugs desperately for saurvival onto the OUT people who are really IN
and forms what it thinks are the new IN people, the Catholic Church...
But the IN people, who really know God and are the Father type people mentioned in 1 John 2....Well those people are SO IN, they have to rush OUT
and became the "Desert Fathers".
The Catholics sent a delegation to Britain. The Celtic church came to visit them on the shore, but the Catholics thinking they were so IN, didn't even stand up to recognise the indiginous Christians. By this the indiginous Christians knew instinctively that the IN People had just shot themselves in the foot by betraying who they really were.....PAGAN BEAST people in fine religious clothing.
The IN People(Catholics) who were really OUT , murdered 70 OUT people (indiginous Christian Bishopswho believed firmly in the Holy Spirit) at Bangor and by it showed themselves though IN to be really OUT.
Nevertheless the OUT Catholics established themselves as the new order over 1000 years in Britain until an IN person in Germany called Luther became an OUT person for daring to suggest righteousness was by faith not works.
Different OUT people who are really IN, have guided Britain, but they were always called NON Conformists by the OUT IN people who nearly always ruled. Cromwell was a mixed exception, being an IN person who used OUT methods and burdened people with LAWS rather then the Holy Spirit.
In 1900 God's new IN people, that the Anglicans put out, were Holy Spirit people. They grew and formed the apostolic movement. But this IN movement that was out, actually became out, because it too was pyramid based, and God was interested in forming a Body.
Interestingly God looked to IN people that were OUT (the denominations) and appeared to work backwards just to fool everybody, and the charismatic movement formed within the IN OUT church. But the IN Church soon put them out and they too in time formed apostolic networks, that like the Pentecostal groups before them were still pyramid structured.
So in the 90s and 2000s people who were into the new OUT, were quickly put OUT of the Newer OUT churches which became the New IN as Timelife began distributing their praise CDs.
The New OUT people began meeting online to discuss how IN LIVING really works from the inside....
And up until 2017 these new IN people are still OUT....
