There is an interesting detail in the book of Revelation
that may have escaped the attention of the readers. Twice
the Lord revealed that we can come to the waters freely.
The word ``dorean'' that is used in the original text means
gratuitously or freely.
Rv:21:6: And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and
Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that
is ATHIRST of the fountain of the water of life FREELY.
Rv:22:17: And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let
him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is ATHIRST
come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life FREELY.
The attentive readers of the Bible will immediately associate
these verses with the words spoken by Jesus when he symbolically
called the Holy Spirit, rivers of living waters.
Jn:7:37: In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus
stood and cried, saying, If any man THIRST, let him come unto
me, and DRINK.
38: He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of
his belly shall flow RIVERS OF LIVING WATER.
39: (BUT THIS SPAKE HE OF THE SPIRIT, which they that
believe on him should receive: for the HOLY GHOST was not
yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.)
In the book of Revelation and as well in the Gospel of John
those who have a spiritual thirst are invited by the Lord to
come and drink of the Water of life for free. In Isaiah 55 the
same invitation is also sent out and as in the book of Revelation
it is specified that every one can come without money and receive
the spiritual Beverage.
Isaiah 55:1: Ho, every one that THIRSTETH, come ye to
THE WATERS, and he that hath NO MONEY; come ye,
buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk WITHOUT
MONEY and without price.
2: Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread?
and your labour for that which satisfieth not? hearken diligently
unto me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight
itself in fatness.
We need to take heed to the warning of the prophet Isaiah, we
should not spend money on what is not bread and cannot satisfy.
Freely the righteous shall partake of the goodness of the Lord but
the sons of disobedience shall labor in vain inheriting darkness
and shame.
Psalms 36: 8: THEY SHALL BE ABUNDANTLY SATISFIED with the
fatness of thy house; and thou shalt make them DRINK OF THE
RIVER OF THY PLEASURES.
9. For with thee is THE FOUNTAIN OF LIFE: IN THY LIGHT SHALL
WE SEE LIGHT.
Many believers need to diligently seek the Lord and discern that
they should not buy the bitter waters of perdition from the
businessmen of the false Gospel of Darkness. The parable of the
ten virgins is accurately depicting the situation that prevails
nowadays in our Churches. The wise virgins told the foolish ones
to go to them that sell, and buy Oil for their lamps. In the Bible
the word Oil symbolizes spirit, this explains why the popular word
anointing is equally used for the word spirit. The buying and selling
of oil mentioned in the parable of the virgins cannot be understood
without taking into consideration the message conveyed by all the
verses quoted above: the Holy Spirit is a free gift from God and
cannot be purchased with money.
To better comprehend the characteristics of this Oil the foolish
virgins went to buy, let us read first some key verses that clearly
explain why their Lamps could not shine.
Mt:25:8: And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your
oil; for our lamps are gone out.
Job 18: 5: Yea, the light of the wicked shall be put out, and THE
SPARK OF HIS FIRE SHALL NOT SHINE.
6: THE LIGHT SHALL BE DARK IN HIS TABERNACLE, and
HIS CANDLE shall be put out with him.
Rv:18: 23: and THE LIGHT OF A LAMP SHALL SHINE NO
MORE AT ALL IN THEE; and the voice of the bridegroom and of
the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy MERCHANTS
were th princes of the earth; for with thy sorcery were all the nations
deceived.
The anointing of the Merchants of the false Gospel cannot produce
light at all. What they are deceptively calling light is actually
darkness. The fools of Babylon are whoring after spirits that laugh,
bark and roar, should not a people seek unto their God? As it is
written, truly there is no light in them. If you think the anointing
that is for sale can give a single Spark of light, you are greatly
mistaken. Attracted by the spiritual manifestations and hoping to
receive their share of this Anointing, multitudes are crowding the
Sanctuaries of Babylon giving Miraculous Offerings. Collecting yearly
between 100 to 50 Million Dollars, the Merchants of the false
anointing are filthy rich with the Salary of Iniquity. While they
are desperately denying to be selling their Anointing, the Ministers
of unrighteousness are continuously begging the crowd for an offering.
They have truly deceived many by their sorcery.
Acts:20:18: And when Simon saw that through laying on of the apostles'
hands the Holy Ghost was given, HE OFFERED THEM MONEY,
Acts:8:20: But Peter said unto him, Thy money perish with thee, because
thou hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money.
